Abstract
The experiments discussed in this thesis have been performed in the Department of Chemical Engineering, Process & Systems Engineering Laboratory, at Åbo Akademi University in Turku. Supercritical Water Gasification of glycerol has been carried out on a laboratory scale at 600 °C and 250 bar, by setting three levels of feed concentration (2.5, 5 and 10%) and three levels of volume flow rate of nitrogen (125, 250 and 375 ml/min). The latter, which is inversely proportional to the residence time, is used to push the biomass solution into the reactor. The choice of these parameters was a consequence of the previous experiments made in the same laboratory and of a careful bibliographic survey.
The experiments, indeed, were performed in order to study the influence of feed concentration and residence time on the efficiency and gas yield of SCWG of glycerol, as the effect of temperature and pressure has already been widely investigated
