Abstract
The results of thermodynamic calculations and experimental data on conversion of wood gasification tars in pyrolysis gas to tar-free fuel gas by partial oxidation with air are reported. The rate of oxygen feeding into the converter, expressed via oxygen excess J, was used as the main controlling parameter of the conversion. The calculation shows that, under the optimum conversion conditions (J = 0.45), the tars are converted virtually completely to gaseous products that are not inferior to the starting substances in the heat of combustion and have approximately 3 times larger volume. In the experiments, because of the effect of lateral heat loss, at the air feeding rate corresponding to J = 0.45–0.50, the temperature is approximately 400°С lower; therefore, the tar conversion reached only 80%. The heat of combustion of the gaseous products after the conversion was 20–30% lower than that of the initial gaseous gasification products, and the volume of the gaseous conversion products increased by a factor of 2.5–3.
