Catalytic and Noncatalytic Mechanisms in Steam Gasification of Char from the Pyrolysis of Biomass

Steam gasification of chars from the pyrolysis of a Japanese bamboo and cedar was studied using a reactor that enabled experimental definition of the gas composition in the vicinity of gasifying char particles. Intraparticle diffusion of neither steam nor the product gases influenced the kinetics of...
