Biomass Solid Fuel Steam Gasification in a Fluidized Bed Reactor
Short Introductive summary
Biomass is a renewable resource, crucial for achieving carbon neutrality. This study explored the use of livestock manure as an energy source. While biogas technology, which generates methane gas through anaerobic digestion, is a common method for converting livestock manure into energy, its production efficiency is low in the case of cattle manure. To enhance biofuel utilization, this study explored a process for producing solid fuel from livestock manure and converting it into syngas through gasification, rather than simple direct combustion. Syngas offers a variety of utilization options, and this study focused on improving hydrogen yield. First, livestock manure was dried energy-efficiently using a biodrying process to produce solid fuel, followed by the introduction of a steam gasification process, which offers high hydrogen production efficiency. The research results will be presented on improving the hydrogen yield in syngas through steam gasification in a bubbling fluidized bed reactor.
