[Gasification] cold/hot gas efficiency

[astrupgaard]

- and that is why a gasifier definition should never include a demand for
cooling of the gas! (Apparently that is the case in Californian legislation)

Dear Mario,

 

The output from a gasifier has two forms of energy. The first form is the
gas. 

In order to release this energy you will need to burn the gas. The other
form 

of energy is the sensible heat of the gas, yes, the gas leaving a gasifier
is 

HOT. Careful, you may burn yourself! It is more efficient to use the hot
gas. 

If you have to cool the gas before using it, the gasifier is less efficient.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Jeff
