Application of Numerical Simulation on Biomass Gasification

摘要

Biomass gasification is one of the highest thermal efficiency chemical conversion processes. Numerical simulation is an important tool for study on biomass gasification. In this paper, numerical simulation on biomass gasification technology at home and abroad are reviewed. At the same time, two commercial simulation softwares(Aspen Plus and Fluent) applicated in chemical process was mainly introduced, and both of them were analyzed and compared. Finally it was put forward that a better simulation result could be achieved for biomass gasification if applying Aspen Plus combined with Fluent.
