Abstract Biomass gasifier technology is a mature technology and gasifiers are available in several designs and capacities to suit different requirements. Biomass gasifier based systems can be set up at almost any place where biomass feedstock is available. The conversion of biomass into fuel was perhaps the first large-scale application of biomass conversion process. The world’s energy demand is growing remarkably due to the robust growth of population and economy. As fossil fuels are limited resources and affect the environment, they are not the perfect choice to satisfy the energy demand any more. All conventional and petroleum-based fuels can be replaced by renewable biomass fuels such as bioethanol, bio-diesel, and bio-hydrogen, which can be converted into liquid and gaseous fuels. Biofuel is a locally available, less-polluting, sustainable, accessible and reliable fuel obtained from renewable energy sources. The most widely recognized utilization of biomass for energy is direct combustion, trailed by gasification, carbonization, and pyrolysis. The creation of transportation fuel from biomass through pyrolysis, trans-esterification, aging, and gasificationbased combination is likewise increasing business significance. Gasification is a concoction procedure that changes over carbonaceous materials like biomass into valuable advantageous vaporous fills or substance feedstock. For small-scale systems, the cost of power generation by biomass gasification technology is far more reasonable than that of conventional diesel based power generation. Most of these syngas-diesel dual fuel studies were conducted on light-duty engines. The synthesis gas “syngas” resulted from the biomass gasification process, which can be burnt and used as a fuel for an internal combustion engine instead of the conventional kinds of fuel. A cleaning and filtration stages is used to get rid of the impurities and the ashes, which is in this syngas to make it proper to be used as a fuel. In this work, an up draft gasifier was designed and fabricated at Faculty Abstract II. |
