Abstract:
Solar driven biomass gasification is an energy conservation process which produce combustible gas called syngas which consists of Hydrogen, Carbon dioxide, Carbon Monoxide and Methane. Product gas has higher energy density and handling is easy for combustion purposes in industrial applications. By replacing biomass with syngas, combustion process is to be more economical with high efficiency. In this process, concentrated solar energy is used to heat up biomass in the reactor call gasifier. Because of that, process saves much biomass and it is sophisticated solution for deficiency of biomass fuel. As main objective, feasibility of the solar driven biomass gasification process for Sri Lanka was analyzed.
