Abstract: The Institute of Gas Technology (IGT) is developing the RENUGAS pressurized fluidized- bed biomass gasification process. The process research unit (PRU), buih for this purpose, is 11.5 inches ID and designed for operation up to ISOOF and 515 psia. It is capable of handling biomass feed rates up to 12 tons per day. Adiabatic, pressurized, fluidized-bed steam and oxygen-blown biomass gasification tests were conducted in the process research unit (PRU) to develop process optimization information for the production of medium-Btu gas. The test program has investigated the effect on gasification performance of temperature, pressure, biomass throughput rate, steam-to-biomass ratio, type of feedstock, feedstock moisture, and fluidized-bed height. Long-duration gasification tests (up to 3 days of steady-state) were made to establish material and energy balances, to observe the possible breakthrough of low-concentration organic compounds, and to evaluate the mechanical performance of the system.
