Proceedings of a subsequent conference in the series are also available on CD-ROM
Pyrolysis and Gasification of Biomass and Waste provides an
authoritative review of thermal biomass
conversion technologies and their implementation now and in
the future.
These proceedings include over 70 papers and case
studies presented by leading experts from Europe and North
America in Strasbourg in October 2002. Covering both technical issues and commercial opportunities, the
papers include numerous diagrams, tables and figures presenting up-to-date details of how
the latest pyrolysis and gasification technology is being put into practice.
The meeting covered a wide range of raw materials and
processes, addressing topics such as: - small and large scale
gasification
- fast pyrolysis of biomass
- liquefied wood fuel
- full-scale application of sewage sludge pyrolysis
- ammonia production and reduction
- gasification of sorted MSW
- green diesel
- gas engines
- gas cleaning and process design
- technical and non-technical barriers to commercial exploitation.
A key aim of the Strasbourg meeting was to create recommendations for
strategies and policies in these areas, which the European
Commission can use in its forward planning, especially with
regard to sustainable energy supply, greenhouse gas mitigation
and associated environmental issues.
This book is an invaluable reference source for anyone concerned with these issues,
and essential reading for researchers, engineers, waste managers and other professionals
involved with the utilisation of green fuels and feedstocks, gasification and the contemporary
biomass industry.
