Abstract
Investigations in the field of processing of different types of biomass into high calorific gas fuel are carried out in the Joint Institute for High Temperatures of RAS. Design of technology for effective processing of low-grade solid fuel to gas mixtures which can be used as fuel for power plants is rather actual problem both in the view of natural resources conservation and in the view of the development of autonomous energy unit for thermal and electric power supply. The experimental data on quantity and composition of the gaseous products formed in the process of peat pyrolysis are presented at various operating parameters of the process. It is shown that as a result of peat pyrolysis and the subsequent cracking of emanating products at temperature 1,000 °C it is possible to receive 1.4 m3 of gas with specific caloricity 11.7 MJ/m3 per 1 kg of original raw material.
