Biomass Gasification Between 800 and 1,400 °C in the Presence of O<sub>2</sub>: Drop Tube Reactor Experiments and Simulation

Beech sawdust particle conversion in a drop tube furnace was studied between 800 and 1,400 °C. Particular attention was paid to the influence of temperature and to the presence of oxygen on the gasification process. As temperature increases, light hydrocarbon production decreases and the CO + H2 pro...
