Abstract :
The paper focuses on the pyro-gasification of thin wood particles in pure CO2 at 850°C under high heating rate conditions (similar to fluidized bed gasifiers). The aim is to assess the potential use of CO2 as gasifying medium and to learn more about its effects on the pyrolysis as well as on the char gasification stages. Experiments and numerical modelling provide answers on the unfolding of the CO2 biomass pyro-gasification process.
