Estimation of the Characteristics of the Partial Oxidation Conversion of Organic Fuel Gasification Products to a Synthesis Gas

Abstract

Estimations on the characteristics of the partial oxidation conversion of gasification products of solid organic fuels to a tar-free synthesis gas via partial oxidation are based on a stationary thermodynamic model. Calculations of combustion temperature, composition of synthesis gas, and the energy characteristics for the conversion of the gasification products of wood to a synthesis gas in the use of oxygen and oxygen-enriched air are carried out. The influence of the amount of pyrolysis tar and their elemental composition on conversion characteristics is studied.
