Abstract

In today’s high energy demand world, power generation makes important role day by days. There are many different kind of power generation system available for instance biomass, solar, nuclear, wind and conventional energy. Biomass or also known solid waste is widely used in the industries nowadays. The biomass is not only using as a fuel for the combustion but it have a potential to gain an energy to become a new alternative source of energy. The important aim for this project is to analyse the temperature distribution and product gases from the gasification process releases and also effect of particle size and fuel type. There are two important element influences the combustion rate for the solid waste which is fuel size and fuel type. Then analysis the efficiency combustion and the product released from the combustion. The scopes of this project to run experimental work on solid waste by varying the fuel type, and fuel size. The experiment was conduct to know the product released from the gasifier stack. Based on the results the various particle size and fuel type will effect on solid waste combustion. The half size and a wood show the highest temperature and the shortest burning time and also the oxygen O2 emission is lower compare with other sample. The gas emission of O2 and CO2 is inversely in graph gas emission. This is because of the particle size, moisture and ash content on fuel type.
