(2024, July 24-26). Effect of mass flow rate and temperature on the gasification of animal fat [Poster presentation]. The 11th International Conference on Energy and Environment Research, Coimbra, Portugal. https://www.iceer.net/2024.htmlhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.22/29593In this work, gasification of animal fat was studied. Tests were performed with an emulsion of fat and water and temperature and mass flow rate effects were evaluated. Gas chromatography was used to analyze the composition of producer gas. Carbon and hydrogen conversion efficiencies, dry gas yield, cold gas efficiency, and higher heating value of producer gas were determined. The results showed that temperature and mass flow rate determine the composition of the gas obtained and the performance of the gasification process. The gasification parameters increased with the temperature rise. The increase of mass flow rate contributes to a decrease in the overall performance of the gasification process.engconference poster
