Gasification of Forest Residues for Sustainable Development in the Mediterranean Region of Turkey

In this study, the energy generation potential of forest residues in Mediterranean Region Turkey are determined by using different gasifier technologies. Gasification is one conventional waste to conversion technologies for production. Syngas, end product gasification process, generally used internal combustion engines, turbines and boilers as a renewable fuel. Energy was estimated up-draft fixed bed gasifier, down-draft circulating fluidized systems. The theoretical results revealed that, among alternatives, has shown highest annual production 1125 GWh. that can be utilized significant source Turkey.
