Performance Of An Alumina Ball Packed Bed Porous Media Burner Fueled By Producer Gas

Producer gas from biomass gasification is unable to burn efficiently in conventional burner due to low burning velocity of CO which comprises of about 20% of the producer gas. Porous media burner (PMB) is a promising technology for improving combustor performance that could solve the problem. The st...
