Evaluation of the Environmental Performance of Syngas Production from Sugarcane Bagasse and Straw

Abstract

A Life Cycle Assessment study was conducted to investigate the environmental performance of syngas production from sugarcane bagasse via Bubbling Fluidized Bed and Entrained Flow gasifiers, as well as the cogasification of sugarcane bagasse and straw using Bubbling Fluidized Bed. The CSFMB® computational tool was used to simulate the gasification process along all the different scenarios performed on this analysis.
