Abstract
In this work, an integrated biomass waste gasification combined heat and power (CHP) system is simulated and analyzed based on a multi-scale first-principles numerical model, which consists of a 1D fixed-bed gasifier model and a 1D hybrid peripheral fragmentation and shrinking-core biomass particle model. The simulations are based on a 15kW gasification CHP system and the numerical model is validated by two different groups of experimental data, and the maximum deviation is 2.56% in syngas H2 composition prediction. A multi-objective optimization framework of the integrated biomass waste gasification CHP system is formulated that considers 3 objectives: economic benefit, greenhouse gas emission, and potential health impact caused by PM emission. The best-compromised solution from the Pareto front leads to $142.8/day economic benefit, 694.3 kg CO2eq/day mitigation, and 57.67 Singapore Pollutant Standards Index score. The impacts of the three objectives on decision variables (i.e., feedstock flowrate, feedstock moisture content, and equivalent ratio) are analyzed by investigating 21 different weighted single-objective problems.
