Abstract
Problematic lignocellulosic waste such as straw (around 5%wt of ash and low bulk density causing problems during reactors’ feeding) cause defluidisation in fluidized bed energy generation systems. Such waste contain much higher amount of alkali and alkali earth metals (especially K). Potassium (K) for example interacts with the cheap and easy to find bed material (silica sand), leading to bed agglomeration operational problems which in turn results in pressure drop increase and loss of fluidisation due to eutectic mixtures creation. Leaching (water washing) the problematic inorganic constitutes from such type of waste reduces the tendency towards bed agglomeration of FB technologies commonly used in wasteto-energy plants. Untreated barley straw was fed to the fluidized bed reactor at temperatures ranging from 750 to 950oC and bed agglomerated. The de-fluidization operational problem became more prominent as the bed temperature increased. On the other hand, pre-treated barley straw didn’t lead to any bed agglomeration during continuous operation and lowered gaseous emissions compared to raw barley straw. Leaching reduced also both K and chlorine (Cl) by almost 90% after leaching in the water as well as improved feeding of feedstock into the gasification system. SEM/EDX characterization of the bed material before and after de-fluidization indicated the nature of bed agglomeration phenomena and actual composition of the ash decoration on the surface of the bed material. The raw straw coating composition presented a high K content (50%wt) with low content of Si (15%wt). However, the SEM/EDX results of the bed material after gasifiying the leached straw didn’t show any agglomeration by eutectic mixtures of very low concentration of K (< 2%wt) and Si (~70%wt). The latter enabled avoidance of the FB agglomeration operational problem and decreased the chances of forming eutectic mixtures.

The exploitation of alternative, green fuels such as the lignocellulosic (woody and herbaceous) biomass waste in energy production, offers the advantages of: i) improved waste management, ii) resource efficiency, iii) reduced dependence on imported energy and iv) increased renewables usage in power production. Low carbon thermochemical processes such as pyrolysis and gasification, in combination with exploitation of biomass waste can reduce the carbon footprint of the energy production sector and offer an additional source of income to farmers and agro industries. When woody and herbaceous waste (e.g. empty fruit bunches and kernels, rice straws) are fed in raw form into fluidised bed technologies (FBGs) such gasifiers for bioenergy production, operational problems like ash fusion and bed agglomeration appear. To ensure a sustainable and efficient operation of such technologies fed on biomass waste, raw material needs to be pre-treated in order to ensure long term operation of bioenergy systems without disturbance as well as optimize the economics of these new fuels by solving logistic issues. As a result these optimised biomass fuels will accelerate the decarbonization of the energy production sector. In this way any underestimated biomass ‘waste’ sources produced locally will be upgraded to a highly desirable and sustainable feedstock for further bioenergy related uses and innovation which is brought by a multidisciplinary approach in the field.

Pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass waste for enhanced thermochemical decomposition for bioenergy production.
by H.A. Alabdrabalameer, M.J. Taylor and V.Skoulou*
The pre-treatment of woody and herbaceous lignocellulosic biomass waste has been explored to enhance its properties as a solid fuel source and control the inherent parameters such as moisture and ash content (inorganic residues that remain after combustion), as well as oxygen content, low calorific value, high volatilIly and low bulk density. Various chemical and physicochemical methods of leaching such as; hotplate, microwave and mechano-acoustic technologies have been used to combat the issues mentioned above, as well as determining an optimum substrate particle size via milling techniques. Facilitating pre-treatments under mild conditions have been found to not only be beneficial in the reduction of inorganic components such as P, S, Na, K and Ca (as determined by ICP-OES). They have been found to cause no detrimental effect to the complex organic matrix, where lignin and hemicellulose content of the substrate when measured by FTIR. Pre-treatment studies have been found to reduce the overall cellulosic crystallinity (calculated by Segal’s equation in PXRD) which is beneficial for thermochemical upgrading when using pyrolysis and gasification. Thermochemical studies have been conducted via thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) under N2 at varying temperatures to model pyrolysis conditions to calculate the biomass reactivity and heating value. It has been found that microwave based leaching is the most effective at reducing inorganic species and therefore lowering the ash content while maintaining the lignin, hemicellulose and cellulose content, as determined by ultimate analysis.

CO2 Integration in High Temperature Steam Gasification (HTSG) of Solid Fuels (lignocellulosic biomass) and Blends with Waste (Plastic)
2016 - 2016
CO2 integration in high temperature steam gasification (HTSG) of solid fuels and blends with waste
Skoulou, V.* , Kantarelis, E., Yang, W.
Aim of the present work is to investigate the viability of modifying the high temperature steam gasification process by adding CO2 in an attempt to tailor value added gas suitable for the energy - chemicals production industry. Such an integrated process investigates the concepts of high temperature steam gasification (HTSG) with aspects from steam gasification under a rich in CO2 atmosphere(CO2HTSG). The present study aimed at investigating the beneficial or detrimental effect of modifying the existing HTSG atmosphere by partially recycling CO2 in lab scale and ideally emerging from a conventional CO2 production process. The effect of the process parameters on the producer gas quality, char and tar yields when gasified non-food woody biomass (WB) of forest origin, swedish coal (SC) and pre-treated plastic waste (PW) studied, as well as their weak blends. Results of the present study indicated synergies when materials of lignocellulosic origin with coal are co-gasified under high temperature/steam conditions, while the modified with CO2 steam gasification environment and at elevated temperature did affect also the quality of the producer gas. This effect depends on the feeding properties and steam gasification conditions, It seems that gasification at elevated temperature with steam-carbon-dioxide decreased the reactivity of chars however blending with biomass at low percentages maximized the H2 and CO2 production.
