Biomass gasification, a century old technology, is viewed today as an alternative to conventional fuel. In gasification process, wood, charcoal and other biomass materials are gasified to generate so called ´producer gas´ for power or electricity generation. Gasification system basically consists of a gasifier unit, purification system and energy converters - burner or engine. This internet documentation gives total insight into gasification technology.
