Descrizione:
This proposal aims at a compact version of a gasifier by integrating the fluidized bed steam gasification of biomass and the
hot gas cleaning and conditioning system into one reactor vessel. Such arrangement will guarantee the conversion of tar,
elimination of trace elements and an efficient abatement of the particulate, delivering high purity syngas, suitable to assure a
substantial share of power generation even in small- to medium-scale (few MWth) CHP and power plants, and to increase the
overall economic revenue, in line with the FP7 energy directives. It is expected that this innovation will provide a concrete
contribution to the target fixed in the work programme of reducing the cost of electricity obtained by means of advanced
gasification systems below 0.04 Euro/kWh in 2020.
The strategy of the work plan is designed to:
- carry out systematic investigations into the development of catalytic and sorbent materials and verify their effectiveness to
improve gas quality at real gasification conditions with tests at bench- to pilot-scale (up to 100kWth);
- evaluate the purity of syngas against existing cleaning and conditioning systems, by means of a 'proof of concept' in the
Güssing gasification plant, and the compatibility towards advanced power generation systems, by means of electricity
production tests with a SOFC unit;
- assess technical feasibility of process simplification and intensification actions by means of design and operation of an
integrated gasification and hot gas cleaning and conditioning fluidized bed prototype reactor (1 MWth), at a significant scale
to provide sufficient and reliable information for industrial applications.
This ambitious project relates well to the complementary expertises of applicants. Consortium also includes the
stakeholders relevant to assure the necessary impact for dissemination and exploitation of the results, and to promote in the
medium term industrial applications for the commercialisation of the innovation.
Attività svolta da ENEA:
- Development of the innovative integrated gasifier (reactor-hot gas cleaning system) at the 1 MWth pilot scale and testing.
- coupling of the gasification process with a solid oxide fuel cell and testing
- process assessment
