Energetic exploitation of vine shoot by gasification processes A preliminary study

摘要: Abstract In this study the energy potential generated by biomass remnants of vine shoot produced in Extremadura (Spain) a gasification process is evaluated. The raw material was characterised elemental and proximate analysis, its Higher Heating Value (HHV) being evaluated as well. order to determine optimal temperature for production gases, shoots were treated at different temperatures, i.e., 650, 700, 750 800 °C air atmosphere. (800 °C) selected gasified stream (200 mL min − 1 ) times (8 50 min). yield so-obtained phases calculated focused on solid gaseous phases. phase analysis well HHV. their properties precursors activated carbons, adsorption isotherms N 2 77 K measured. Finally, electric power that could be obtained combustion vapor boiler calculated.
