Abstract
A co-current moving bed gasifier with internal recycle and separate co mbustion of pyrolysis gas has been developed with the aim of producing a design suitable for scaling-up downdraft gasifiers while maintainin g a low tar content in the producer gas. Using wood chips with a moist ure content of 7-9 wt% (db) as a fuel at a rate of 20 kg h(-1), this s ystem produced a gas with a heating value of 4500 kJ m(s)(-3) and a ve ry low tar content of < 0.1 g m(s)(-3).
