Biomass Gasification: Converting Waste into Clean Energy
Biomass gasification is an advanced renewable energy technology that transforms organic materials into a combustible gas, offering a sustainable solution for waste management and power generation. As global demand rises for low-carbon energy systems, gasification stands out for its ability to convert agricultural waste, forest residues, and organic municipal waste into useful energy with minimal environmental impact.
What is Biomass Gasification?
Biomass gasification is a thermochemical process that converts solid biomass into producer gas (also known as syngas) by reacting the feedstock at high temperatures (typically 700–1,000°C) in a low-oxygen or oxygen-starved environment. Unlike combustion, which burns biomass directly, gasification breaks it down into gaseous components—mainly carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen (H₂), methane (CH₄), and carbon dioxide (CO₂).
