Energy from municipal waste using a gasifier

Abstract

The municipal solid waste Gasification Technology has been carried out using a fluidized bed gasifies. This work focuses on the production of synthesis gas from municipal solid waste (agriculture waste, orange fruit waste, egg cover and household) the production of energy from municipal solid waste by combustion in fluidized bed gasifier and air discharge, and this energy also used for the power generation. Purpose of this study was to estimate the potential of gasification process an alternative to the combustion of municipal solid waste. Fluidized bed gasifier uses a relatively small amount of oxygen or water vapor to regenerate the organic compound into a combustible gas. The ratio of steam to biomass effects the composition of product gas. Silica sand and municipal wastes are used as bed material in fluidized bed gasifies.
