Abstract
The process of gasification is well-known; however, to this day, the applications of such facilities, especially off-grid small-scale units for direct electricity and char production, are scarce. In this study, an off-grid fixed bed downdraft gasification unit is studied from the gaseous/solid product character perspective. This unit represents a possible solution for the emerging call for sustainable decentralised energy sources. Softwood chips were utilised in this study, and their conversion into synthetic gas (direct electricity supply) and solid biochar was observed and analysed. The results show promising values of synthetic gas for potential utilisation in different applications outside the direct combustion process, such as microbial syngas fermentation, with a lower heating value equal to 6.31 MJ·m-3. It appears that during the steam activation process of biochar, both high-quality off-gas of more than 70%vol. H2 (excluding N2) and activated carbon of a specific surface area of 565.87 m2·g-1 can be collected. Further investigations have revealed specific degradation of chemical bonds and material morphology changes during steam gasification. The microporous structure and high specific surface area of the material make it an attractive material for further development as an adsorbent in sorption cooling devices. Therefore, the waste generated within the gasification process is minimised, and the potential of the obtained products will be valued in favour of the sustainability of the remote locations.
