Abstract
Method of two-stage pyrolytic biomass processing, combining the feedstock pyrolysis and subsequent heterogeneous cracking of volatile pyrolysis products in charcoal bed, provides a high degree of energy conversion of feedstock into gas with a higher calorific value of 11–12 MJ/m3. The paper deals with the possibility of using the raw gas (without purification from tars) as a fuel for power generation plants based on the internal combustion engine. The paper presents experimental data on the specific content of tar and moisture in the product gas and their dependence of the processing parameters. Moreover, it analyzes potential mechanisms for increasing of the product gas volume which is observed with increasing of the cracking zone temperature.
