Isothermic Gasification Octave

Abstract

Gasification is a process of thermal conversion where solid biomass (sawdust pellets) is transformed into gas by partial oxidation at high temperatures. The model is based on the two-phase theory (bubble - emulsion), suitable for predicting experimental results in reactions occurring in fluidized beds. The model simulation includes mass and energy balances and hydrodynamic studies, with assumptions such as isothermal process behavior.
