Resumen

Equilibrium modeling has been used to predict the hydrogen production in a downdraft

gasifier. The composition of syngas (synthesis gas), the lower heat value (LHV), hence, the cold

efficiency of gasifier (?cg) have been determined. The effects of moisture content (MC) have been

investigated for temperature of gasification 800 °C. The predicted values compare reasonably well

with experimental data available in literature. The amount of hydrogen and CH4 increase with

increase in the range of moisture content in the biomass (eucalyptus) investigated. The LHV and

cold efficiency of gasifier decreases with increase in the range of moisture content.
