Abstract
The present study is focusing on the CHP generation by agro biomass thermochemical derived gases and liquids, as feedstock for hydrogen-rich gas production and consecutively, power generation by using fuel cells mainly of the SOFC type. Objectives encompass analysis, integration of processes and synergies along with estimation of selected agro residues physicochemical characteristics, suitability and implication in decentralized CHP systems of thermochemical conversion in conjunction with SOFC. Estimation of the conjugated system energy efficiency by using data from olive kernel steam gasification is also reported. The integration of agro biomass gasification with SOFC offers the potential of highly efficient and renewable power generation. From the perspective of the integrated process, power density and fuel characteristics determine the overall efficiency of SOFCs.
