Gasifier & Its Application

1. Power Applications
{A} Gas Engine running on 100% producer gas
Producer gas generated by Infinite Gasifiers can be used to power producer - gas engines and diesel engines converted for producer gas firing.

The typical requirement of wood/biomass to be gasified to generate 1 unit of power is as shown below

{A} Gas Engine running on 100% producer gas

In dual fuel mode of operation, engine modification is confined to a special induction manifold fitted with a gas-air mixer. The pilot injection of diesel amounting to 15 -30% of original consumption (approximately equal to the no-load diesel consumption of the engine) is required for ignition, depending on the load. The loss in engine output is normally 20-25% on dual fuel operation.

The diesel engine can revert to 100% diesel operation and 100% capacity immediately on switching off of producer gas supply to the air-gas mixer.

2. Thermal Applications

The INFINITE Vergassen is a simple and reliable solution for bringing down the fuel cost by over 50%. The INFINITE Vergassen converts wood into a burnable gas (producer-gas) by means of a process known as thermal gasification. The producer gas can be piped from the gasifier (which may be located outside the plant building ) to the ovens/furnaces/etc located in the plant building and burnt in specially designed burners, in place of fossil fuels like F.O/L.D.O/Diesel/LPG/CNG.

Thus expensive liquid/gas fuels can be effectively replaced by low cost wood without any changes in operations, temperature profile, temperature control and cleanliness in the plant area.
