ENEA Technology

PRODUCTION OF SYNTHETIC NATURAL GAS (SNG) FROM GASIFICATION OF BIOMASS AND/OR COAL, EVEN OF LOW-RANKING QUALITY


Technology Readiness Level (TRL)

5

Innovations and Benefits

These are innovative technologies related to the use of low-ranking and therefore low-cost coals, gasification and co-gasification of biomass, purification from tar and sulphur with innovative methods.
The technology also ensures integration with CCS technologies for the de-carbonization of fossil fuel and integration with biomass. Development and testing of components, innovative sensors and advanced control strategies/systems.

Use

Production of SNG from coal, even of low ranking quality.

Applications and ongoing Activities

The experimental facility GESSYCA is being completed; it is a small, highly versatile and instrumented demonstration system for the setting-up of technologies and the development of innovative elements and cycles, including efficient tar and sulphur abatement systems.
