Abstract :
A non-stoichiometric equilibrium model was proposed to predict the performance of a biomass gasifier in this study. The model had produced satisfying results for product gas composition and lower heating value (LHV) prediction in air gasifier in comparison with data from literature. Effects of the operational parameters and fuel type (H/C and O/C) on the product gas were investigated.
