Abstract

In this work, syngas was used directly as fuel source for the renewable CCHP system, which can be producted through biomass gasification process. The advantages and limitation of entrained flow gasifier are compared, followed by discussion on the key parameters that are critical for the optimum production of syngas. Gasification agent of 450 °C temperature and 30 atm pressure has been proposed as a optical solution to a entrained flow gasifier using air as gasification agent at 0.27 ER (oxygen equivalence ratio), in that it provides a syngas of 5.665 MJ/m3 LHV and up to 77% gasification efficiency. Depending on the key parameters of gasification process, the properties of syngas produced can be varied. It is thus essential to thoroughly understand the cogeneration system to identify the suitable methods for a renewable CCHP system. These process was simulated using Aspen Plus to perform the rigorous material and energy balances. The results obtained from simulation and experiment agreed well. This paper later focused on economic evaluation of the entire process, as well as the environmental benefits. The renewable CCHP system could able to attain lower CO2 and SO2 emission with total energy efficiency and gas yield of 75.43% and 2.476 m3/kg respectively.
