This book was released on 2014-02-26 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook explains how biomass can be converted to a gas in a downdraft gasifier and gives details for designing, testing, operating, and manufacturing gasifiers and gasifier systems, primarily for shaft power generation up to 200 kW. t is intended to help convert gasification from a practical art into a field of engineered design. Although the handbook focuses on downdraft gasification as the only method suitable for small-scale power systems, it also gives extensive detail on biomass fuels, gas testing and cleanup instrumentation, and safety considerations that will be of use to all those who work with gasifiers at whatever scale. The combustion of biomass in wood stoves and industrial boilers has increased dramatically in some areas, and forest, agricultural, and paper wastes are being used extensively for fuels by some industries. However, more extensive biomass use still waits for the application of improved conversion methods, such as gasification, that match biomass energy to processes currently requiring liquid and gaseous fuels. Examples of such processes include glass, lime, and brick manufacture; power generation; and transportation.CONTENTS1.0 Introduction and Guide to the Literature and Research2.0 History, Current Directions, and Future Development3.0 Gasifier Fuels4.0 Principles of Gasification 5.0 Gasifier Designs6.0 Gasifier Fabrication and Manufacture7.0 Gas Testing8.0 Gas Cleaning and Conditioning 9.0 Gasifier Systems10.0 Instrumentation and Control11.0 Engine Adaptation and Operation12.0 Safety and Environmental Considerations 13.0 Decision MakingReferencesAppendixThe ultimate guide to researching and potentially building a biomass downdraft gasifier engine system.

This book was released on 2015-09-24 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gasification of biomass (wood, wood waste, agriculture residue, etc) is an often-discussed option that may permit electrical utilities to obtain a portion of their fuel requirements from renewable energy resources. However, the technical state of this option is unclear in Nepal at present, and this study was initiated to provide documented design guideline and performance testing information of commercially available and laboratory commercial prototype biomass gasifiers to electricity utility end user. To achieve this goal, several laboratory prototypes has been developed and rigorously tested for performance testing. Commercial prototype, Series-3, 3.2 kWe biomass gasifier worked out to be successful upon which this thesis experiment and results work are discussed in details. Due to small in physical size of the gasifier, lapsi seed stone was selected as the basis for fuelling.

Download or read book Handbook of Gasification Technology written by James G. Speight and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2020-04-14 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gasification is one of the most important advancements that has ever occurred in energy production. Using this technology, for example, coal can be gasified into a product that has roughly half the carbon footprint of coal. On a large scale, gasification could be considered a revolutionary development, not only prolonging the life of carbon-based fuels, but making them “greener” and cleaner. As long as much of the world still depends on fossil fuels, gasification will be an environmentally friendlier choice for energy production. But gasification is not just used for fossil fuels. Waste products that would normally be dumped into landfills or otherwise disposed of can be converted into energy through the process of gasification. The same is true of biofeedstocks and other types of feedstocks, thus making another argument for the widespread use of gasification. The Handbook of Gasification Technology covers all aspects of the gasification, in a “one-stop shop,” from the basic science of gasification and why it is needed to the energy sources, processes, chemicals, materials, and machinery used in the technology. Whether a veteran engineer or scientist using it as a reference or a professor using it as a textbook, this outstanding new volume is a must-have for any library.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comprehensive coverage on the growing science and technologyof producing ethanol from the world's abundant cellulosicbiomass The inevitable decline in petroleum reserves and its impact ongasoline prices, combined with climate change concerns, havecontributed to current interest in renewable fuels. Bioethanol isthe most successful renewable transport fuel—with corn andsugarcane ethanol currently in wide use as blend-in fuels in theUnited States, Brazil, and a few other countries. However, thereare a number of major drawbacks in these first-generation biofuels,such as their effect on food prices, net energy balance, and poorgreenhouse gas mitigation. Alternatively, cellulosic ethanol can beproduced from abundant lignocellulosic biomass forms such asagricultural or municipal wastes, forest residues, fast growingtrees, or grasses grown in marginal lands, and should be produciblein substantial amounts to meet growing global energy demand. The Handbook of Cellulosic Ethanol covers all aspects ofthis new and vital alternative fuel source, providing readers withthe background, scientific theory, and recent research progress inproducing cellulosic ethanol via different biochemical routes, aswell as future directions. The seventeen chapters includeinformation on: Advantages of cellulosic ethanol over first-generation ethanolas a transportation fuel Various biomass feedstocks that can be used to make cellulosicethanol Details of the aqueous phase or cellulolysis route,pretreatment, enzyme or acid saccharification, fermentation,simultaneous saccharification fermentation, consolidatedbioprocessing, genetically modified microorganisms, and yeasts Details of the syngas fermentation or thermochemical route,gasifiers, syngas cleaning, microorganisms for syngas fermentation,and chemical catalysts for syngas-to-ethanol conversion Distillation and dehydration to fuel-grade ethanol Techno-economical aspects and the future of cellulosicethanol Readership Chemical engineers, chemists, and technicians working onrenewable energy and fuels in industry, research institutions, anduniversities. The Handbook can also be used by studentsinterested in biofuels and renewable energy issues.
