Abstract:A comparative study of On-Sun and Off-Sun designs for supercritical water gasification (SCWG) of biomass on concentrated solar power (CSP) plants was here presented. In the On-Sun design, the tubular reactor was placed on a cavity receiver of a solar power tower (SPT) plant and the heat employed to produce the gasification came directly from the sun (viz. the solar radiation was concentrated, thanks to the heliostat field, onto the tube's surface). In the Off-Sun designs, the gasification of the biomass was ca… Show more
