Experimental Analysis for Improving the Energy Efficiency of Biomedical waste Co-Feeding in the Steam Gasification

Abstract

The steam gasification of pure Biomedical waste (glucose plastic bottle, syringe) and Indian palm kernel shell is gasified in fluidized bed gasifier and the result is compared with the different mixture of PKS and BMW co-feeding(100%pks,25%bmw,50%bmw, and 100%bmw) using olivine as the primary catalyst. The influences of co-feeding of BMW with PKS on the gas yield, char yield, tar yield, carbon conversion efficiency, tar composition, and gas composition are investigated.
