Additional Technical Information:
This installation comprises an atmospheric bubbling fluidised bed (ABFB) gasification pilot plant with a nominal power of 2 MWt capable of generating a fuel gas suitable for the following cleaning and synthesis processes of 2nd generation biofuels.
Two operating modes are possible: (1) use of air as gasifying agent or (2) use of steam/oxygen as gasifying agent.
Process data and main characteristics:
Minimum power: 60% nominal
Operating pressure: 0,3 bar(g)
Bed temperature: 650 – 950ºC
Freeboard temperature: 700-1000ºC
The type of biomasses to be used comprise a wide range:
Bulk density: 80-800 kg/m3
Moisture content < 20%
Size < 30 mm
Volatiles: 68-87% daf
Ash < 13% dry basis
LHV: 16,1-20,6 MJ/kg
As well as the bed materials and additives:
Bulk density: 1000-5000 kg/m3
Size < 1 mm
The plant includes the following systems:
Biomass feeding system
Bed material and additives feeding system
ABFB Gasifier
Cyclone and discharge system
Bed discharge system
Start-up combustion chamber
Syngas combustion system
Flue gas cooling and cleaning system
Steam generation
Oxygen supply
