Renewable Energy Generation by Full-Scale Biomass Gasification System Using Agricultural and Forestal Residues

Abstract

This study investigated the application of biomass gasification to generate renewable energy, using three different types of agricultural and forestal residues: rice husk, almond shell, and waste wood. The field work was carried out in a full-scale gasification plant in Jiangxi, China. The heat value of product gas and the environmental pollution impacts of different biomasses under different gasifying temperatures were studied. Under the carbon feed rate in the range of
