Three zone modeling of downdraft biomass gasification : equilibrium and finite kinetic approach

2013

Mathematical models and simulations are being practiced exceedingly in the field of research and development work. Simulations provide a less expensive means of evaluating the benefits and associated risk with applied field. Gasification is a complex mechanism, which incorporates thermochemical conversion of carbon based feedstock. Therefore, simulation of gasification provides a better comprehension of physical and chemical mechanism inside the gasifier than general conjecture and assist in optimizing the yield. The main objectives of present thesis work involve formulation of separate sub-model for pyrolysis and oxidation zone from published scientific references, and assembling it with p…
