Straw Black Liquor Steam Reforming in a Fluidized Bed Reactor. Effect of Temperature and Bed Substitution at Pilot Scale

Gasification via the steam reforming of straw black liquor (BL) was performed in a pilot-plant fluidized bed reactor. The effects of bed material replacement (from an initial bed of calcium carbonate to a bed composed of BL char) and bed temperature (575−640 °C) on the dry gas composition, the dr…
