Abstract
Development of high-efficient gasification technology is now under way as an R&D project entrusted by NEDO in collaboration with KOBELCO, IHI, Kyoto University, Hokkaido University and CRIEPI. This R&D project is directed to develop pretreatment technology realizing calorie-improvement of biomass by applying dehydration-in-oil technology, and to develop pyrolytic gasification technology realizing highly effective gasification. In this project CRIEPI is involved in the study on the gasification reactivity for biomass reformed in oil and on the CFD for gasification. This report shows both the gasification reactivity & modeling of the coffee-residue reformed in oil and the simulation results of gasifier based on CFD technology.
