Abstract
Abstract
A gasifier employs partial ignition of biomass and conversion to gaseous fuels of high calorific value. Bubbling fluidized bed gasifier is a promising one amongst other gasification technologies like fixed bed, entrained flow etc. It has several noteworthy advantages like large- and small-scale applications, efficient heat and mass transfer rates due its fuel flexibility, low capital and operating costs, etc. However, low mixing rate of biomass feedstock and gasifying agent, high tar content in the product gas and low calorific value of producer gas are some of its limitations which need sincere attention to enhance its performance. The present study analyzes the effect of design variables of the proposed gasifier reactor for different feedstock along with the operating variables on the quality of producer gas. This review paper examines the present global status of biofuels, different types of gasification technologies, approaches adopted for the gasification, different parameters affecting gasification performance, enhancement of product gas conditioning, technical and cost-effective viability and the future prospects of gasification.
