Review of Catalysts for Tar Elimination in Biomass Gasification Processes

Abu El-Rub, Z., Bramer, E. A., Brem, G.·2004·Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research

Abstract

A project is carried out to develop a process for tar elimination downstream of a gasifier making use of cheap and active materials as catalysts. In the first stage of the project, screening of catalysts was carried out in a fixed-bed tubular reactor. The results of the fixed-bed experiments will be used in the design of the process. This paper presents a review of the various types of catalysts that have been used in several research works to reduce the tars in the producer gas derived from the biomass gasification process. The catalysts are divided into two classes according to their production method: minerals and synthetic catalysts. A summary of the review and recommendations for good catalyst candidates and future work are also provided.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
