Abstract:
There are presented two technologies of biomass processing. One technology is concerned with manufacture of hydrogen and pure carbon materials. It based on the process of heterogeneous pyrolysis of gaseous hydrocarbons during filtration through porous medium. As a porous material it is suggested to apply a charcoal formed as a result of thermal processing of biomass (wood, peat and agricultural waste). The advantages of this technology are the waste-less character of biomass processing and wide range of the end products. Another technology is a technology of conversion of biomass into synthesis gas. The experimental data on quantity and composition of the gaseous products formed in the process of thermal treatment of wood and peat are presented. It is shown that as a result of peat and wood pyrolysis and the subsequent cracking of emanating products at temperature 1000 °С it is possible to produce about 1.4 m3 of gas with calorific value 11.7 MJ/m3 from one kg of original raw material.
