Syngas production by two-stage method of biomass catalytic pyrolysis and gasification

Pyrolysis/reforming of rice husks with a Ni–dolomite catalyst: Influence of process conditions on syngas and hydrogen yield

“…Wang et al [20] reported an increase in gas yield from 0.98 Nm 3 kg -1 to 1.33 Nm 3 kg -1 of feedstock with the increase in temperature from 750 to 900 °C during the two-stage catalytic gasification/reforming of pig compost using a Ni-modified dolomite catalyst. The increase in the gas yield with the increase in catalytic reforming temperature was primarily due to the thermal cracking of volatiles, liquids and steam reforming of hydrocarbons [21]. At higher temperature, the endothermic Boudouard reaction and water gas reaction also contributed towards the higher gas yield.…”

Integrated carbon dioxide/sludge gasification using waste heat from hot slags: Syngas production and sulfur dioxide fixation

“…In this study, the apparent kinetics of sludge gasification was interpreted and generally, the kinetic equation of common type can be described as follows (Tanaka, 1995;Vyazovkin et al, 2011;Xie et al, 2012):…”

Steam gasification of safflower seed cake and catalytic tar decomposition over ceria modified iron oxide catalysts

“…On the other hand, catalytic decomposition can be considered as the best promising technique for tar elimination because they can be also converted into useful products besides completely destroyed. In literature, considerable research concerning the catalytic decomposition of tar has been undertaken and several types of catalysts have been tested to decompose tar either in bed as primary catalysts [4,5] or in downstream reactor as secondary catalyst [6][7][8].…”
