Description
Summary:The present investigation involves the numerical studies on the thermochemical conversion of bamboo biomasses conducted in a Double Tapered Bubbling Fluidized Bed Reactor. Six different bamboo biomass species suitable for the gasification process available in Mizoram state, India, are selected for the study. The 0D equilibrium-based model predicts the percentage composition of syngas constituents viz; H 2 , CO, CO 2 , H 2 O, and CH 4 obtained through the gasification process. The global gasification reaction of biomass is formulated from the chemical reactions at various gasification stages. The composition of constituents in the syngas obtained is numerically determined at varied temperature ranges (400–1400 K) and Moisture content (0–40%). The percentage of syngas constituents obtained for Bambusa vulgaris Wamin is outstanding compared to the other biomass species used in the study. The production of CH 4 is found suitable at low temperature (
