Abstract
The biomass and waste are one of the renewable energy that expected to reduce the greenhouse gas emission into atmosphere, and the development of those utilization technologies is a pressing necessity. However, the biomass and waste resources are distributed wide and thinly, and the cost of collection and transportation is expensive. Then, CRIEPI has advanced the development of biomass/waste carbonizing gasification process for small-scale and high-effective power generation system. This process feature is to adopt the carbonizer as pretreatment equipment of the gasifier. A carbonizer makes it possible to use various biomasses and wastes with different chemical property as a fuel of the gasifier. In this paper, the carbonizing gasification test results of the oil-plant dregs (PKS; Palm Kernel Shell and JSD; Jatropha Seeds Dregs) and food processing waste (coffee dregs and beer dregs) are reported.
