Estimation of gas composition and char conversion in a fluidized bed biomass gasifier

- The model predicts gas composition and carbon conversion in biomass FB gasifiers.
- Correction of equilibrium is applied to improve the estimation of the gas composition.
- Kinetics models are applied to predict char, tar and methane conversion.
- Fluid-dynamics, entrainment and attrition are accounted for the calculation of char conversion.
- The model has predictive capability in contrast to available pseudo-equilibrium models.
