Abstract

Gasification of biomass is an attractive technology for combined heat and power production. Co-gasification of biomass and coal was tested in an 8 MW dual fluidized bed steam gasifier with coal ratios up to 22% on an energy basis. Hydrogen levels in the producer gas increased with the addition of coal as well as ammonia, hydrogen sulfide and tars. Addition of coal to the system stabilized the process and improved gas quality.
