“…Carbon conversion is comparably low for small l. On comparing the overall conversion at l = 0.35 (C Ov = 78.7%) with the volatile yield from the fuel analysis (64.31 %, dry and ash free), the conversion is only slightly higher. This indicates that only the volatiles are released since the volatile yield under entrained-flow conditions is higher than that under standard conditions [20,21]. By increasing l, the curve for the overall conversion flattens faster than that for carbon conversion.…”

Hydrothermal carbonization was used to convert green waste into a high-quality biocoal that was applied to an air-blown entrained-flow gasifier. Fuel-specific operating parameters are required to achieve complete fuel conversion and operate the gasifier at high efficiency. Therefore, different air-to-fuel equivalence ratios and steam addition were applied to investigate effects on gasifier performance. Fuel and carbon conversion were determined by char-particle analysis. The syngas composition and cold gas efficiencies were determined and the solidphase adsorption method was used for tar measurements. It was shown that owing to high conversion rates and comparably low tar loading, biocoal is very applicable for entrained-flow gasification. Higher gas preheating temperatures would improve the process.
