Abstract :
Due to its environmental friendliness and
substantial energy supply, biomass is a promising
alternative among the various renewable energies.
Gasification has been suggested as a viable approach to
maximize the energy efficiency of biomass. In this study,
steam was used to co-gasification of rice husk (RH) and
sewage sludge (SS) at various temperatures. In this
present work the H2 content is increased and the syngas
production dropped as the SS ratio in blends increased.
Due to the reduction and steam oxidation of Fe species in
SS during the co-gasification process, the synergistic
interaction was more important at higher temperatures,
which encouraged the H2 production. At SS ratio=0.80
and temperature of 900°C, the highest effective gas
content (82.92 vol%) and highest HHV (11.40 MJ/m3
)
were optimised. It suggests that steam co-gasification of
RH and SS is a method that has potential for producing
the needed syngas for a safe and effective waste
management procedure.
