Optimization of Slag Mobility of Biomass Fuels in a Pilot‐scale Entrained‐Flow Gasifier

The bioliq® process, developed at the Karlsruhe Institute for Technology, aims production of synthetic fuels and chemicals from biomass. technology is based on a two-step process with decentral pyrolysis transportable slurry residual biomass central entrained-flow gasification by using biomass-to-liquid technology. This study focused slag, which formed melting inorganic ash components during gasification. To operate gasifier smoothly, range desired viscosity has to be defined. A structure-based model was used predict slags outlet. good agreement between experimental calculated viscosities achieved fully liquid slag systems.
