Single-stage plasma gasification of RDF
نویسندگان
چکیده
Experiments with refuse-derived fuel (RDF) were performed on a single-stage plasma gasification reactor system. The performance of the process in converting the feedstock to syngas is assessed for different oxidizing agents (H2O, CO2 + H2O and CO2 + O2). The experimental results show that syngas composition varies significantly with gasifying agent(s), while carbon conversion efficiencies vary only slightly.

Modelling of Gasification of Refuse-derived fuel (RDF) based on laboratory experiments
In this work, a model of gasification process that enables all, material and energy balance, calculation of gas composition, gas heating value and reactor temperature is presented. The model parameters were estimated by laboratory experiments. A fraction of MSW generally separated from inorganic materials and biodegradable components, so called Refuse-derived fuel (RDF), was studied by material...
متن کاملTwo stage fluid bed-plasma gasification process for solid waste valorisation: technical review and preliminary thermodynamic modelling of sulphur emissions.
Gasification of solid waste for energy has significant potential given an abundant feed supply and strong policy drivers. Nonetheless, significant ambiguities in the knowledge base are apparent. Consequently this study investigates sulphur mechanisms within a novel two stage fluid bed-plasma gasification process. This paper includes a detailed review of gasification and plasma fundamentals in r...
متن کاملRecovery of plastic wastes from dumpsite as refuse-derived fuel and its utilization in small gasification system.
An effort to utilize solid wastes at dumpsite as refuse-derived fuel (RDF) was carried out. The produced RDF briquette was then utilized in the gasification system. These wastes were initially examined for their physical composition and chemical characteristics. The wastes contained high plastic content of 24.6-44.8%, majority in polyethylene plastic bag form. The plastic wastes were purified b...

متن کاملEnergy Recovery from Municipal Solid Wastes by Gasification
Recovery of energy from MSW by combustion in Waste-to-Energy (WTE) plants reduces land filling and air/water emissions, and also lessens dependence on fossil fuels for power generation. The objective of this study was to assess the potential of gasification processes as an alternative to the combustion of MSW. Gasification uses a relatively small amount of oxygen or water vapor to convert the o...
