Agenda<br />
• Biomass as a Fuel<br />
• What is Gasification<br />
• Why Gasification<br />
• Gasification for Power Generation<br />
– Modes of Power Generation<br />
– Ratings<br />
• Case Studies<br />
• Questions
<strong>Ankur</strong> <strong>Scientific</strong> <strong>Energy</strong> <strong>Technologies</strong> <strong>Pvt</strong>. <strong>Ltd</strong>.<br />
Biomass as a Fuel<br />
• Age-old and most widely used fuel source<br />
• Largest contributor for primary energy,<br />
especially in rural areas<br />
• Biomass till date was mainly used for<br />
cooking<br />
• With recent technology development,<br />
providing power has become feasible and<br />
cost effective
<strong>Ankur</strong> <strong>Scientific</strong> <strong>Energy</strong> <strong>Technologies</strong> <strong>Pvt</strong>. <strong>Ltd</strong>.<br />
What is Gasification?<br />
Basic Process Chemistry<br />
• Conversion of solid fuels into combustible gas mixture<br />
called producer gas (CO + H 2 + CH 4 )<br />
• Involves partial combustion of biomass<br />
• Four distinct process in the gasifier viz.<br />
• Drying<br />
• Pyrolysis<br />
• Combustion<br />
• Reduction
