Syngas Production from Co-gasification of Forest Residue and Charcoal in a Pilot Scale Downdraft Reactor

A study on the co-gasification of forest residue and wood charcoal was executed on pilot-scale 50 kWth downdraft gasification reactor. The reactor parameters (i.e. temperature, pressure) were evaluated on various parameters namely heating value, syngas yield, exergy, feedstock consumption rate and p...
