Techno-economic analysis of thermal deoxygenation based biorefineries for the coproduction of fuels and chemicals
TL;DR: In this article, the economic impact of coproduction of renewable fuels with platform chemicals is determined by assessing thermal deoxygenation (TDO) pathway based biorefineries with two distinct product suites: (1) fuel and furfural (a platform chemical) and (2) fuel, and levulinic acid, a platform chemical.

Influence of the Biomass Gasification Processes on the Final Composition of Syngas
TL;DR: In this paper, a global perspective about the producer gas final composition dependence, the so-called syngas, from the biomass, oxidizer, reactor type, temperature and pressure is given based on a literature benchmarking.

Development of a Small Downdraft Biomass Gasifier for Developing Countries
M. A. Chawdhury,Khamid Mahkamov +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a small downdraft biomass gasifier JRB-1 (6-7 kW) was built of stainless steel pipes, sheets and other fittings and tested for wood chips and pellets, and the results were used in EES software to obtain the lower calorific value of syngas (4424-5007 kJ/m 3 ) and cold gas efficiency (62.569.4%).

Increased biomass harvesting for bioenergy : - effects on biodiversity, landscape amenities and cultural heritage values
Erik Framstad,Håkan Berglund,Vegard Gundersen,Raimo Heikkilä,Noora Lankinen,Taru Peltola,Ole Risbøl,Martin Weih +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a review concludes that positive or marginally negative effects of biomass harvesting are likely for harvesting of logging residues, clearance of trees under power lines, along roads, and from marginal agricultural land, as well as production of energy crops on arable land.
