Gasification is a promising eco-friendly technology to meet the current and future energy demands.
One of the main issues of gasification is the presence of major greenhouse gas CO 2 in the product gas. The aim of this paper is to study the effect of parameters on sorbent-enabled gasification process to reduce CO 2 emissions.
Experimental investigation of the effect of parameters Equivalence Ratio(ER), Steam to Fuel Ratio (SFR), a Sorbent-to-Fuel Ratio (SOFR) and a Coal-to-Biomass Ratio (CBR) on syngas composition in the co-gasification of coal and biomass is performed in a lab-scale biomass gasifier. Results indicated that the addition of sorbent during gasification decreases the CO 2 content and increases H 2 yield. An increase of 21.5% in H 2 and reduction of 24.3% in CO 2 emissionsis achieved at CBR of 0.25/0.75.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
