The Effect of Pretreated Palm Kernel Shell and Mukah Balingian Coal Co-gasification on Product Yield and Gaseous Composition
In this study, co-gasification of palm kernel shell (PKS) and low-rank Malaysian coal (MB) was carried out in a fixed bed reactor. For the pretreated samples, PKS was torrefied at 270°C (PKSTo) and MB was preheated at 250°C (MBPr) for 1 h, respectively, prior to co-gasification at 767°C, with a...

| description | In this study, co-gasification of palm
kernel shell (PKS) and low-rank Malaysian coal (MB) was carried out in a fixed
bed reactor. For the pretreated samples, PKS was torrefied at 270°C (PKSTo) and MB was
preheated at 250°C (MBPr)
for 1 h, respectively, prior to co-gasification at 767°C, with a biomass blending ratio of 52%
and a steam flow rate of 55 mL/min. The effect of
different blending combinations was investigated towards product yields, namely
gas, tar, char and gases composition. The co-gasification on both pretreated
(PKSTo/MBPr) and catalyst-pretreated (Cat-PKSTo/MBPr)
produced a greater gas yield, with lesser tar and char yield than both
untreated PKS and MB (PKSUn/MBUn) and pretreated PKS and
untreated MB (PKSTo/MBUn). The PKSTo/MBPr
was found to enhance the H2 production by 63.9% and 41% than PKSUn/MBUn
and PKSTo/MBUn, respectively, at 45 min of reaction time.
Thus, the pretreatment on both samples had a significant impact on the distribution
and composition of product yields during co-gasification. As a conclusion, the
pretreated sample, which has been upgraded on characteristics such as higher
carbon and lower oxygen content than the untreated sample was revealed to
enhance gas yield and H2 production during co-gasification. |
