Acoustic forcing to reduce soot formation from biomass gasification
- A new technique to reduce soot inside the gasifier by acoustic forcing of the flow to enhance fuel particle dispersion.
- This technique modifies local conditions at the location of soot formation without changing any major process parameters.
- 90% reduction of soot volume fraction in lab scale experiments in an earlier project.
- Application of the concept in technical scale with an aim for scale up.
