The oxidation zone temperature showed a sharp decrease after the 80th minute of operation due to depletion of the feed material since the gasifier was under batch operation.

The gasifier will take 120,000 tonnes of commercial and industrial rubbish thrown away by companies across the North-east and turn it into clean energy.

Mhlanga also emphasized that UNIDO has already identified the local manufacturers of Biomass Gasifiers and will work on to strengthen the technology support systems by doing the capacity building of local manufactures , engineers , biomass experts and R& D side .

Suu Kyi also toured the Nanobiotechnology Research Centre, the two-stage gasifier facility, the Bioremediation Complex and other energy-efficient structures on the campus, while discussing the nuances of the installed technologies with TERI experts.

Not only do the CHyP gasifiers operate on a variety of feedstocks, "we're making cheap hydrogen, but we can present that energy in all the forms that you use energy--heat, electricity and liquid fuel," Weaver says.

Nexterra's large-scale gasifiers have sprouted up at other institutions and in other industries.

The gasifier consists of upper and lower chambers in the form of drums connected in the middle by a heavy spacer.

In the process of reconstruction the mechanical grate of the boiler was removed, and the fluidized bed gasifier and the burning chamber of gasification products and fine fly coke were inserted in front of the boiler.

"Linc Energy anticipates igniting the gasifier to complete the 90 day gasification demonstration at the Wyoming UCG Demonstration Site in the second quarter of 2012," Mr Bond said.

Non-gaseous, inorganic components in the gasified feedstock, such as the rocks, dirt and other impurities, separate and leave the bottom of the gasifier as a glass-like slag.

"The Pratt & Whitney Rocketdyne gasifier provides a 90 percent decrease in size compared to competing systems, thereby enabling higher efficiency, and as much as a 25 percent reduction in cost with enhanced reliability," said Jim Maser, president, Pratt & Whitney Rocketdyne.

A.V Bridge Water[9] reviewed the gasification technologies and concluded that atmospheric down draft gasifier are attractive for small scale applications up to 1.5 [MW.sub.t] and a relatively clean gas could be produced with low tar content usually with high carbon conversion.

W2 Energy's gasifier converts tires into (sulfur free) diesel fuel and electricity without any carbon dioxide emissions.

Ivey has also been involved in the wood waste energy and recycling field as a consultant, and most recently was involved in the Chapleau Biomass Project, a 13-megawatt wood-fired gasifier project.

Its gasifier takes in unrecyclable waste which would otherwise go to landfill and gasifies it to produce syngas, in turn powering an electrical generator.
