GASIFICATION
POLY-GENERATION FROM BIOMASS
Future research of biomass gasification in WBC laboratory focuses on micro-scale gasifier design, compact-scale power generation from gasification, chemical production from syngas, and integrated pyrolysis and gasification conversion of e-waste.
Biomass resources
Standard biomass is used for gasification research to obtain a reliable syngas production such as wood pellet, wood chips, wood charcoal. Mixed fuel is also tested to realize the rural area biomass resources.
Downdraft gasifier
Downdraft gasifier with continuous feeding system is used for syngas production. It also equips with gas cleaning and cooling system. Cleaned syngas is fed to reactor or diesel generator.
updraft gasifier
Updraft gasifier is a batch-type reactor. It is mainly used for thermal application of syngas. Simulation on this gasifier is also performed to optimize and scale-down to the micro gasifier reactor.
