Biomass Gasifier Systems

The systems are offered in hot gas, scrubbed gas and ultra clean gas modes for a variety of thermal and power generation application. These are available in different designs and series depending upon nature of applications. Output ratings cover a wide range: Thermal output of 100,000 to 1.25 million Kcal/hr. (Gas Energy Content), Gas flow rates of 100 to 1,250 Nm3/hr, electrical ouput of 40 KW to 500 KW (through gensets operating in dual fuel mode).

The gasifires are designed for wood biomass and incorporate a number of noval and proprietary features; a few of them are:

  • Consistent operation with automatic control of combustion and reduction zones/temperatures through proprietary interventions and ingenious control strategies.
  • Continuous operation of gasifier for power generation/thermal applications with innovative husk feeding and char removal strategies.
  • High standards of tar cleaning to ensure trouble-free operation of even turbo-charged engines.
  • Capacity turn-down capabilities (by a factor of two)
  • Designed mainly to gasify the most abundant agricultural residue e.g. rice husk.
Areas of Application:

Captive power generation, grid connected power generation rural electrification, irrigation pumping, replacement of petroleum products for dryers, ovens, furnaces, hot air generators, boilers and waste disposal etc.

Advantages

  • High conversion efficiency
  • Clean and complete combustion
  • Wide turn down ratio
  • Can gasify most abundant and cheap agriculture residue.
Stage of  Development: Commercialised.

Economic Data: Can be worked out in customised manner for specific applications. 

Transfer Forms: Supply of system, installation and commissioning, technical assistance for operations etc.
