Biomass vs. Coal gasifica5on
Syngas vs. product gas, reason for confusion!
• Highly reac5ve fuels such as coal or tar-‐oil are gasified with oxygen at temperatures above 1200 °C and produce a ‘syngas’ CO – H2 and CO2 – H2O.
• Biomass or waste gasifica5on has a reac5on temperature of 700 -‐ 950 °C and produce a ‘product gas’ (syngas + hydrocarbons) CO – H2 – CH4 – C2H6 – tars and CO2 – H2O.
Biomass vs. Coal gasifica5on (2)
• Coal gasifiers have a very large scale of economy
• Coal (entrained flow) gasifiers need fine powders or slurries, they are not suitable for biomass or waste (chips, fluff)
• We aim for high efficiencies on a scale of 5 to 50 MWe
• Our fuel: wood, waste & agricultural residues
Examples (L to R): Waste wood Soya Stalk RDF from MSW
The MILENA gasifier
MILENA an indirect gasifier • Both reactors in one refractory lined reactor vessel
• 100% carbon to gas ra5o
o Resul5ng in carbon free ash, less waste, cleaner waste & safer waste
o Resul5ng in a higher cold gas efficiency (5 to 15% higher on LHV basis)
• Separate flue gas exhaust, no or minimized nitrogen dilu5on of the product gas
o Compared to air blown gasifica5on a 3 to 4 5mes higher hea5ng value.
o Compared to oxygen/steam blown gasifica5on a much higher efficiency (no ASU parasi5c), while s5ll having 60% more hea5ng value
o Very suitable for cataly5c upgrading & gas turbines
MILENA gasifica5on scope
Simplified… • Solid par5culates • Organic impuri5es (tars, dioxins)
mainly dependant upon gasifier type and opera5onal characteris5cs
• Inorganic impuri5es (H2S, HCl, NH3 etc.) mainly dependant upon feedstock composi5on
• Other impuri5es (heavy metals, HCN, COS etc.) mainly dependant upon feedstock composi5on
• A dirty feedstock (waste) is alrac5ve, but results in more cleaning efforts
Gasifica5on product gas cleaning
1. Heavy tars • Condensa5on leads to fouling < 400 -‐ 450°C • Tar dew point is cri5cal parameter
The tar problem
Deactivation of catalyst (SNG production)
Fouling of equipment (gas cleaning)
Plugging of an intercooler (gas engines/turbines)
2. Light tars • Heterocyclic compounds (phenol) are water soluble,
condensate & scrubber water is poisoned
• Naphthalene can cause crystalliza5on problems
The tar problem
Phenol Naphthalene
Naphthalene crystals on gas engine control valve
The tar problem
OLGA Tar removal
Portugal: CFB gasifier, OLGA gas cleaning, Caterpillar 3516A+ gas engine
OLGA, a tar/oil based gas scrubber
• OLGA captures tars with high efficiencies, well within specifica5on for gas engines, gas turbines and cataly5c processes (SNG, FT-‐diesel).
• OLGA does not convert the tars by using electricity or combus5ng part of the product gas. OLGA captures tars and recycles these as fuel to the gasifier.
• OLGA has low pressure drop and only consumes some electricity for pumps and tracing < 0,1 MW for a 10 MW gross electric plant (1%).
• OLGA does not change the main gas composi5on, high energy carriers like methane, ethene and the bulk of the benzene and toluene stay in the product gas.
• OLGA is able to handle very high tar loads, up to 50 g/Nm3 allowing us to op5mize the MILENA.
