Downdraft Gasifier with Internal Cyclonic Combustion Chamber

BACKGROUND The gasification process offers significant potential for converting biomass materials into energy fuels and chemicals in an efficient and environmentally friendly manner. Traditional throat-type downdraft gasifiers have been able to convert solid biomass into producer gas, but with several major limitations. The throat section can obstruct...

Method to sustain culture activity, gas uptake and improve selectivity for ethanol production during syngas or producer gas fermentation in bioreactors

BACKGROUND Global energy demand continues to rise while fossil fuel reserves decline, heightening the need for sustainable alternatives such as biofuels. Syngas- a mixture of carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen (H2), and carbon dioxide (CO2)- can be biologically converted into valuable chemicals including alcohols through microbial fermentation. However,...

Feedback control of gas supply for ethanol production via syngas fermentation

BACKGROUND Synthesis gas, syngas, fermentation uses carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen (H2) to produce valuable alcohols like ethanol, with companies such as INEOS Bio and LanzaTech piloting large-scale facilities. Achieving economic viability in this process requires stable, high-yield alcohol production over long periods, which depends on carefully...
