Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed the novel biomass power generation system using a downdraft gasifier and a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC). To establish the design and control guidelines for a gasifier, a calculation model to specify a downdraft gasifier was constructed. We compared the measurement of the gas composition derived from a small (0.1 kW) and a big (20 kW) sized downdraft gasifier of furnace with a calculated value, relatively. And, it was found that the composition of gasification gas could be estimated based on the conditions of temperature, biomass material, air, water, and so on. Estimating the gasification power generation with a small-sized downdraft gasifier and SOFC, in addition, we recognized that the maximum power from the gasification gas of wood could be controlled in the range of 40 - 80 % against the pure hydrogen. Moreover, the carbon deposition was not found on the electrodes of SOFC by canning electron microscope observations.
