What
is Syngas Cleanup?
The synthesis gas (syngas) produced from biomass gasification and plasma gasification plants contains a wide and varying number of pollutants and contaminants before the synthesis gas can be used as a "fuel gas." These pollutants and contaminants include;
ammonia
chlorides
fine particulates
heavy metals (trace amounts)
mercury
sulfur
To meet environmental emission regulations, as well as to protect downstream processes, the owner/operator of biomass gasification and plasma gasification plants must insure these are removed in a "syngas cleanup" process.
Depending on the application, the synthesis gas may also require "conditioning" to adjust the hydrogen-to-carbon monoxide (H2-to-CO) ratio to meet downstream process requirements.
In applications where very low sulfur (<10 ppmv) synthesis gas is required, converting the carbonyl sulfide (COS) to hydrogen sulfide (H2S) before sulfur removal may also be required.
Typical syngas cleanup and conditioning processes include;
acid gas removal (AGR) for extracting sulfur-bearing gases and CO2 removal.
ammonia and chlorides
catalytic hydrolysis for converting COS to H2S
cyclone and filters for bulk particulates removal
solid absorbents for mercury and trace heavy metal removal
water gas shift (WGS) for H2-to-CO ratio adjustment
wet scrubbing to remove fine particulates
What
is Synthesis Gas
(Syngas)?
Synthesis Gas, also referred to as Synthetic Gas, or Syngas, are the names given to gas comprised of hydrogen and carbon monoxide, generated through Biomass Gasification plants using feedstocks considered as waste, such as sewage sludge, and generally labeled as waste to fuel or waste-to-energy facilities.

"Changing the Way the
World Makes and Uses Energy"
Running
on "green fuel" such as Biomethane,
B100 Biodiesel,
Synthesis Gas
or natural gas, our CHP
Systems are the greenest "clean
power generation" systems available as
they generate no new greenhouse
gas emissions or other hazardous
air pollutants.
Clean Power Generation Solutions
Our "Integrated" CHP
Systems (Cogeneration
and Trigeneration)
Plants
Have Very High Efficiencies, Low Fuel Costs & Low Emissions
The CHP System
below is Rated at 900 kW and Features:
(2) Natural Gas Engines @ 450 kW each on one Skid with Optional
Selective Catalytic Reduction system that removes Nitrogen
Oxides to "non-detect."
The Effective Heat Rate of the CHP System
below is
4100 btu/kW with a Net System Efficiency of 92%.
Our CHP Systems may be the best solution for your company's economic and environmental sustainability as we "upgrade" natural gas to clean power with our clean power generation solutions.
Our Emissions Abatement solutions reduce Nitrogen Oxides to "non-detect" which means our CHP Systems can be installed and operated in most EPA non-attainment regions!
