Syngas Production Through Gasification of Livestock Manure Using Fixed-Bed Gasifier
Short Introductive summary
Utilization of animal litter as an energy resource enhancing sustainability and energy security. In the present study, gasification of cattle and chicken manure was performed using lab-scale fixed-bed gasifier. With an increasing gasification temperature, the composition of the syngas was more significantly influenced by the Boudouard reaction, and a higher syngas heating value, carbon conversion and cold gas efficiency were observed. As the equivalence ratio (ER) increased, the content of H2, CO, and CH4 in the production gas decreased, and CO2 tended to increase. As a result, as the ER increased, the carbon conversion increased, and the cold gas efficiency and the calorific value of the syngas decreased. Through the gasification of livestock manure, it was possible to achieve a cold gas efficiency and a carbon conversion of more than 65% and 99%.
