History of Gasification
- Developed in the early 1800’s to convert coal to gas
- First uses were for heating and street lighting -1807
- 1,000 of installations across the world.
- Large Scale
- Small Scale
- Companies with Gasification Patents
- Lockheed Martin
- Shell
- Conoco Phillips
- GE
- Siemens
- Westinghouse
- Today’s gasification technology is:
- Cleaner – environmentally friendly
- Economically Sound
- Scalable

Types of Gasification Technologies
Traditional Gasification Processes - Utilize some oxygen or air in process
- Fixed Bed
- Fluidized Bed
- Entrained Bed
Plasma Arc
- Utilizes electrical arcs to gasify material
- New
- Little history
- No scalable operations
Pyrolysis – Occurs in the absence of oxygen
- Utilized heavily in bio-mass operations
- Proven technology

Gasification – Sample Process
Material Preparation:
De-packaging, Size Reduction
Material Collection:
Centralized Processing Center, Food Waste, Green Waste, Municipal Sludge, Manures, Other
Material Preparation:
Blending and Drying to 80% Solids
Gasification:
Output – Biochar, Syngas, Heat Syngas Bio-Char: Water Purification, Soil Enrichment
Electric Generation:
Supply Parasitic Load, Reaming Sold Heat: Returned for Drying
