2 2 Biomass fuel as feedstock Fuel is fed to the reactor Water (moisture) and volatiles are released (pyrolysis) rapidly Residual carbon reacts slower Reactions depend on the characteristics of biomass H 2 O Volatiles Char residue Ash 20 C 100 C C C
3 3 In TG, biomass char gasification is tested The achievement of total carbon conversion is influenced by the char gasification reactivity Char structure formed during pyrolysis: heating rate, temperature gaseous environment (steam, CO2, product gases) porosity Catalyst material (ash forming constituents) Chemical structure Surface area of the catalytic particulate material in contact with carbon Dispersion TG result (mass vs. time) includes all these phenomena as a summary Shape of the reaction rate vs. conversion graph (reactivity profile)
4 4 TG char gasification (cont.) Gasification studies published in literature are mainly directed to char prepared separately In the thermobalance, where fresh biomass is used as sample, the char is formed in situ and it is difficult to define the exact point, where char gasification starts (i.e char conversion = 0) The problematic point is situated in the phase where post pyrolysis and initial char gasification are overlapping.
5 5 TG char gasification (cont.) Heating rate, affects the char reactivity through char formation Various char formation reactions have more time during the slow heating leading to char having low reactivity Also the structure and chemistry of the inorganic catalytically active material is influenced by the heating rate. Heating rate should resemble the feeding to the hot gasifier Feedstock Fast heating rate: small particles and particle surfaces Slow: Cores of large particles ( pieces) In literature, it is often used separate char samples prepared with slow heating rate; the reactivity values obtained may not be usable for reactor design or modelling
6 6 TG char gasification (cont.) Other factors affecting char and its reactivity: Gaseous environment during pyrolysis Pressure Temperature Char formation mechanisms and its influence on reactivity are not actually well known
7 7 Test procedure in VTT s TG - 1 Reactivity measurements in TG are based on the sample weight change as a function of time at constant T (isothermal) and in the desired gas (pure reactants H2O, CO2, their mixture or mixed with product gas. Aiming at (pressurised) fluidised bed gasification Temperature level < 1000 ºC Pressure range 1 20 bar Sample size of mg fresh dried biomass is put into a sample holder having a good gas - solid interaction without mass transfer effects Fast heating rate of the sample to the reaction temperature is essential. In TG tests in VTT, the sample is driven fast into the reactor conditioned with the reaction environment, i.e. temperature, pressure and gas. This input is arranged with a chain winch, which lowers the sample holder fast (within few seconds (abt 7s) into the hot reactor. During the input the sample heats up, pyrolyses and char is formed. Fast heating rate can also be achieved with a special jump mode of the reactor furnace (e.g. TA-instruments at SINTEF)
8 8 Test procedure in VTT s TG - 2 When the sample holder has reached the lowest position the weight recording starts Before the start of the weight monitoring, the sample has pyrolysed partly during the input. In the tests, it has been observed that sample still has raw unpyrolysed biomass at 15 seconds from the initiation of the weight reading. At 30 seconds no fresh biomass is seen, so it takes about seconds for the completion of the pyrolysis to the char During the first 100s., there is overlapping char gasification and post-pyrolysis at 850ºC causing the sample weight loss. For this reason it is difficult read the exact point of the char conversion = 0
