Since the Great East Japan Earthquake occurred, it has attracted attention that power generation systems using waste biomass could be a feasible option to replace fossil fuels. The system can convert waste biomass such as garbage, paper, wood and so on into energy. Hence, it increases energy independence ratio in residential area. Since biomass has the characteristic of carbon neutral, the system can reduce CO2 emissions. However, conditions of waste biomass are different for their properties, so it is difficult to use as a fuel for power generation. Here, superheated steam gasification system is an effective energy conversion system, because it can handle wide range of waste biomass. When the syngas generated by gasification is applied to a gas engine CHP, high combined efficiency can be obtained. However, when analyzing superheated gasification power generation system using waste biomass, it was unclear how to operate the system due to the fact that the demand was not taken into consideration. Therefore, we constructed a platform for Superheated Gasification Power Generation System using Waste Biomass independent on the region and achieved user application.
