Experiment evolution for Downdraft Gasifier
Keywords:
biomass, calorific value, down-draft, gas composition, gas production rateAbstract
The Gasification is a thermo-chemical process for converting solid biomass into mixture of combustible
gases. The mixture of gases produce by partial combustion is carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, methane, oxygen,
nitrogen and hydrogen. In this project down draft gasifier will be developed, in which wood, coconut shell and bagasse is
used as a biomass to evaluate the performance of gasifier. The effect of air flow rate on producer gas temperature.
Producer gas production rate, calorific value of producer gas and content of gases produce by this three biomass will be
evaluated.
