Thermo Chemical Gasification
Thermo Chemical Gasification
India has become one of the fastest-growing economies in the world. The fast-paced growth of the economy which is the 3rd largest in terms of GDP has resulted in a surging demand for energy. The ever increasing demand for energy is projected to grow at a rate of 3% over the next two decades. The increase in demand for energy to cater to a large population; we are inclined to develop and harness environmentally friendly clean and ‘green’ energy resources in-line with the global trend.
Navrattan Holdings Limited has become the first company to introduce Navrattan Thermo Chemical Gasification Technology in India. The revolutionary technology is capable of converting any carbon-containing feedstock such as biomass, coke, sewage, agricultural, animal, medical, and municipal solid waste into ‘Green’ electricity, natural gas, and biofuel. The gas thus produced is called the ‘Syngas’. SYNGAS is a shortened name for Synthetic Gas that commonly deals with the blend of hydrogen and carbon monoxide. It is a clean, dry, flexible fuel.
Description
One of the many advantages of the use of Synthetic Gas to produce clean fuel is that it can be produced from waste materials which would otherwise, need to be discarded. Instead of placing waste products in landfills or the oceans, this waste can be used to generate useful and eco-friendly fuel. This makes the Thermo Chemical Gasification process both an efficient means of producing energy and an environmentally friendly option for the recycling of waste products.
Virtually any carbon-based material can be gasified to produce syngas. The carbon that is stored in the plant material is released as carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide allowing for nearly all the carbon in the biomass to be converted to syngas.
Advantages
Advantages of Syngas Produced By Navrattan's TCG Technology
Some of the major benefits of Syngas produced through Thermo Chemical Gasification is:
- Generation of renewable power.
- Conversion of waste materials to useful and ‘clean’ fuels.
- Feedstock flexibility.
- Low capital cost – less than ½ the cost of conventional designs.
- Cost-effective and cleaner than conventional combustion process.
- One of the most efficient technologies for waste treatment.
- Rapid deployment – 12 months or less for a single unit.
- Modular plant design.
- Reduced carbon emissions.
Characteristics of TCG
- Pollutants in the flue gas escaping from the unit by 20-25% below the current limit in the Act in force
- The unit operates latch condition: Pre-burner 800 to 850 ° C Afterburner 900 to 950 ° C
- The machine operates without human intervention, guided by a computer works, containerized mobile version
- The operation required one person as electrical engineer and 1 person as technician
- Rate of Return - In the frame of Indian relations, about 5 years
- Predictable revenues from energy sales, RDF grind destruction, Biogas residue destruction & High moisture content sewage sludge disposal and destruction
