Catalytic Effect of Metal Species on Enhancement of CO2 Gasification Reactivity of Biomass Char
In the Boudouard reaction, where CO2 is reacted with carbon (char) to produce CO, very high temperatures are required to shift the equilibrium towards CO production. This endothermic reaction is inherently slow and catalytic species are effective to speed up the reaction rate at temperatures below 900 °C. In this study, the catalytic effect of some alkali (K, Na), alkaline earth (Ca) and transi...
متن کاملStudy of Ni/Char Catalyst for Biomass Gasification in an Updraft Gasifier: Influence of Catalyst Granular Size on Catalytic Performance
In order to examine whether catalyst granular size was a factor for tar removal and syngas composition enhancement, three Ni/char catalysts with 90-100 mesh (Ni/SC), 50-60 mesh (Ni/MC), and 20-30 mesh (Ni/LC) size were prepared with a mechanical mixing method and tested in an updraft gasifier. Reforming parameters investigated were the reaction temperature (650-850C), the Ni loading (5-20% of ...
متن کاملCatalytic Pyrolysis of Tar Model Compound with Various Bio-Char Catalysts to Recycle Char from Biomass Pyrolysis
Tar and char can be regarded as unwanted byproducts during the gasification process. In this study, three types of catalyst, i.e., biomass char (bio-char), nickel supported on biomass (Ni+bio-char), and nickel supported on bio-char (bio-char+Ni), were studied to compare the catalytic effects of different preparation methods on tar model compound removal. The structural characteristics of the th...
متن کاملPreparation and Characteristics of Biomass Char
Rice husk and sawdust were selected as the raw materials for a study of biomass char yield in the range of 600 to 900 °C. It was found that temperature was the primary factor affecting the biomass char yield. The yield of the rice husk and sawdust chars decreased significantly with increasing temperature. As the residence time increased, the biomass char yield decreased. The smaller the size of...
متن کاملComparison of Thermodynamic and Experimental Yields during Supercritical Water Gasification of Biomass and Pyrolysis Char
Materials with different C/O ratios and volatile matter content (E.grandis and four pyrolysis chars of E.grandis) were used as feedstock during SCWG experiments at 450 °C and 27 MPa. Experimental gas yields and gasification efficiencies were compared to calculated thermodynamic equilibrium results to determine the effect of O/C ratio and volatile matter content on the experimental and thermodyn...
