Reduction of Ammonia and Tar in Pressurized Biomass Gasification.

DE2005836333

Publication Date	2005
Personal Author	Wang, W.; Olofsson, G.
Page Count	16
Abstract	This work focuses on the development of catalytic candle filters for the simultaneous removal of tars and particles from the biomass gasification gas at high temperature. An improvement of sulphur resistance of the nickel-activated catalytic filter was developed by the addition of CaO. The influences of preparation procedure of catalytic filter, the ratio of Ni/CaO and the loading of Ni and CaO on the performance of the catalytic filter were investigated.
