Prediction of hydrogen production of a downdraft gasifier using equilibrium modeling for different moisture content for solid oxide fuel cell action (sofc).
Abstract
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.
