ALL ABOUT BIOMASS GASIFICATION

For the past few years the Gasification of the Biomass for energy generation and environmental purposes has been gaining importance. Forestry by-products, agricultural residues, wood waste, municipal solid waste and sludges are all typical of the materials being utilised in projects. A specific attention has been given to this technology in view of its better environmental response. In cases of power production need in rural development when grid connection is too expensive and cheep biomass is locally available. It is also an interesting technology when CHP (Combined Heat and Power) is of use, such as district heating, or a local industry nearby a plant.

In this Multimedia Guide the following key features can be found:

  • a broad overview of all technical aspects of Gasification plants from biomass harvesting, pre-treatment, conversion, product gas purification to product gas utilisation
  • environmental impact of gasifiers and their safety measures
  • data on gasifiers performance- economics of gasification and marketing strategies for penetrating existing & new markets
  • conclusions concerning the technical performance, economic viability and current status of gasification plants + recommendations .
