Summary: | The results of thermodynamic calculations and experimental data on conversion of wood gasification tars in pyrolysis gas to tar-free fuel gas by partial oxidation with air are reported. The rate of oxygen feeding into the converter, expressed via oxygen excess
J
, was used as the main controlling parameter of the conversion. The calculation shows that, under the optimum conversion conditions (
J
= 0.45), the tars are converted virtually completely to gaseous products that are not inferior to the starting substances in the heat of combustion and have approximately 3 times larger volume. In the experiments, because of the effect of lateral heat loss, at the air feeding rate corresponding to
J
= 0.45–0.50, the temperature is approximately 400°С lower; therefore, the tar conversion reached only 80%. The heat of combustion of the gaseous products after the conversion was 20–30% lower than that of the initial gaseous gasification products, and the volume of the gaseous conversion products increased by a factor of 2.5–3. |
