A biomass gasifier converts solid fuels like wood waste and agricultural residues into briquettes, which are then gasified through a thermochemical process to produce a gaseous fuel. This fuel can be used for heat and power generation applications. The gasification process separates the production of combustible gases from their combustion. It has a thermal efficiency over 75% and produces a low-calorific gas mixture called producer gas. Potential applications include institutional and commercial cooking, food processing, rural electrification, and captive power generation. Common gasifier designs include updraft, downdraft, twin-fire, and crossdraft types.

Wood Waste, Saw Dust briquettes and agro- residues converted into briquettes into a gaseous fuel through a thermo-chemical process and the resultant gas can be used for heat and power generation applications. • When dry biomass fuel such as wood is burned in any fire, the solid fuel must first be converted into its component combustible gases.
• When the making of those gases is separate from
where the gases are combusted, the device is called a “gasifier” and the process is “gasification. • The overall thermal efficiency of this process is more than 75%.
• The combustible gas mixture, known as ‘producer gas’.
calorific value, ranging from 1000 to 1100 kCal / Nm3 (5500 MJ/Nm3). Potential applications • Institutional cooking • Restaurants/Hotels • Food processing • Bakeries • Tea/Coffee processing • Hot water generation • Rural Electrification • Captive power generation • Gasifier can be used in any application where LPG, Diesel or any other Petro-fuel is used. Gas Producers • Design of gasifier depends upon type of fuel used and whether gasifier is portable or stationary . • The most commonly built gasifiers are classified as : • Updraft gas producer • Downdraft gas producer • Twin-fire gas producer • Cross draft gas producer Updraft gas producer Downdraft gas producer Twin-fire gas producer Cross draft gas producer Based on biomass and other renewable energy source
