Abstract
Fluidized bed gasification is technically and economically proven technology, which shows the high possibility of realization and commercialization. However, in Korea, development of FBG to the commercial scale for power generation and industry is mainly blocked by the fact that there is no experience of design, troubleshooting and operation of even pilot scale fluidized bed gasifier. In this study, a $3MW_{th}$ circulating fluidized bed(CFB) was newly developed for biomass gasification. The fluidized bed was mainly composed of circulating and bubbling fluidized reactors integrating in-situ tar removal step in the system. For cleaning of the tar and acid gas in the product gas, the sequential gas cleaning process comprised of a ceramic filter, rapid quencher and wet scrubber was adopted. Effect of equivalence ratio was investigated to find the optimal operating conditions for the $3MW_{th}$ integrated system of fluidized bed gasification.
