Gasification of biomass for syngas production: Research update and stoichiometry diagram presentation

Gasification is a thermal process that converts organic materials into syngas, bio-oil, and solid residues. This mini-review provides an update on current research on producing high-quality syngas from biomass via gasification. Specifically, the review highlights the effective valorization of feedstocks, the development of novel catalysts for reforming reactions, the configuration of novel integrated gasification processes with an assisted field, and the proposal of advanced modeling tools, including the use of machine learning strategies for process design and optimization. The review also includes examples of using a stoichiometry diagram to describe biomass gasification. The research efforts in this area are constantly evolving, and this review provides an up-to-date overview of the most recent advances and prospects for future research. The proposed advancements in gasification technology have the potential to significantly contribute to sustainable energy production and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Gasification of municipal solid waste (MSW) as a cleaner final disposal route: A mini-review

The production of hydrogen-rich syngas from municipal solid waste (MSW) by pyrolysis/gasification is one of the most promising waste-to-energy pathways for realizing a circular bioeconomy. This mini-review provides an overview of current research and development efforts in the field, focusing on the development of syngas upgrades and novel gasification processes, with the ultimate goal of making MSW gasification a sustainable and affordable route for the final disposal of MSW. A graphical assessment protocol is proposed to support comprehension of the main reactions that are involved in the MSW gasification. MSW gasification studies are reviewed with the prospects considered to provide a reference for future work.
