ABSTRACT

This paper presents the results of measurements which were carried out on Department of furnaces and thermal technology. Experiments were carried out on a countercurrent gasifier using different fuels, different flow gasification medium and different heights of backfill. In order to obtain values for emissions of the combustion process of producer gas are planned measurements for different composition of produced gas, depending on the type of gasifying medium. In our case, produced gas will be incinerated in the boiler or the cogeneration unit. These measurements are planned for in autumn 2014. The obtained data can serve as a basis for the use of produced gas in industrial practice.

Keywords: wood chips, wood pellets, wood gas, combustion of wood gas, emission
