20110220846 | NON-DENSIFIED BIOMASS GASIFICATION METHOD AND APPARATUS - A non-densified feedstock is fed into a modified countercurrent gasifier, and syngas and char are produced from an upper portion of the gasifier. In the preferred embodiment, propane gas is injected into a lower portion of the gasifier as unconsolidated straw feedstock is metered into a gasifier feedstock inlet. The feedstock is converted into syngas and char in a combustion section of the gasifier. A portion of the syngas and char is recycled within the gasifier. After the syngas and char flow out of a gasifier production outlet, the char is separated from the syngas in a cyclone separator. The syngas is used to produce power at the facility where the syngas is produced. | 09-15-2011 |
