Abstract
The purpose of this work was the study of crude glycerol gasification, using steam as oxidant. The results were compared with those obtained for technical glycerol gasification. The producer gas composition and the gasification parameters were evaluated. Tests were performed in a fixed bed reactor and the producer gas samples were analysed by gas chromatography. The results using crude glycerol showed higher H2/CO ratio and cold gas efficiency values than the ones obtained using technical glycerol while no significant differences were observed for the remaining evaluated parameters. The results reveal that gasification is a possibility of crude glycerol valorisation.
