Abstract
The dual-stage ignition biomass downdraft gasifier is an enormous tar reduction technology as against a single-stage ignition biomass gasification. Exergetic analysis of the system guides toward a possible performance enhancement. In dual-stage gasification, around 67.76% of input exergy is destructed in the several components, while 9.16% is obtained as a useful exergy output and 24.34% is found to be as a useful energy output there. The entire unit was assessed with a progressively rising electric load from 15.24 kW to 38.86 kW. The enhanced producer gas quality comes from 57% combustible gas with a higher heating value of 6.524 MJ/Nm3 and tar content of 7 mg/Nm3 after the paper filter, whereas the biomass consumption rate is 58 kg/h at the greatest load with the grate temperature of 1310–1370 °C. The samples of exhaust gas emissions are obtained environmentally favorable. The results even described that the dual-stage ignition biomass downdraft gasifier has significantly greater energetic and exergetic efficiency as compared to the single-stage gasifier.
