Abstract
In the present paper, effect of gasification temperature on gasification process in a downdraft gasifier using different biomass feedstock has been examined. An equilibrium model of the downdraft biomass gasifier has been developed to carry out the study. The model has been validated with experimental results. The producer gas yield has been analysed by using stoichiometric equilibrium model. The lower heating value (LHV) calculation has been done for different biomass with respect to temperature. It has been observed that the hydrogen production rate and CO production rate increases with respect to increase in temperature. On the other hand the Methane production decreases with increase in temperature. The lower heating value (LHV) for the studied sample has been observed to decrease with respect to the increase in gasification temperature.
