ISOTHERMIC GASIFICATION OCTAVE

Abstract

Gasification is a process of thermal convertion where the solid biomass (sawdust pellets) turns into gas by partial oxidation at high temperatures.The model used is based on the theory of the two phases (bubble -emulsion) suitable for predicting experimental results in reactions that occur in fluidized beds.The model is simulated from the set of ordinary differential equations for mass balances and energy, as well, hydrodynamic studies of porosity, velocity, fraction of bubbles, with certain assumptions such as isothermal behavior of the process
