Gasification of lignocellulosic biomass to produce syngas in a 50 kW downdraft reactor

Lignocellulosic biomass gasification shows a pronounced prospective to replace fossil fuels. In this study, the gasification of coconut shell with charcoal using a 50 kW downdraft reactor was investigated. The controlling parameter of temperature and pressure were used to verify the production of ga...
