1 Biomass Gasification to 2 nd Generation Biofuels Status Review and R&D activities at VTT Solander Symposium Piteå, Sweden Esa Kurkela VTT, Finland
2 2 Alternative Routes to 2 nd generation Bio-Fuels TRANSFORMATION THROUGH INTERMEDIATES (SUGARS) BIOCHEMICAL CONVERSION Biochemical routes to ethanol Hydrotreated vegetable oils Pyrolysis followed by bio-oil upgrading Gasification followed by gas cleaning and conditioning Different final products from syngas: FT-diesel, Methanol, DME, gasoline, H 2, CH 4 Electric or hybrid cars with renewable electricity REDUCTION TO BUILDING BLOCKS (CO, H 2 ) THERMO- CHEMICAL CONVERSION
3 3 Production and Conversion of Biomass-Derived Synthesis Gas Main Steps in Overall Process Biomass Filtration Tar removal Scrubbing CO shift, H 2 S removal CO 2 removal MP Steam Off-gas HP Steam DRYING GASIFICATION REFORMING INITIAL GAS CLEANING FINAL GAS CLEANING AND CONDITIONING SYNTHESIS/ UPGRADING Heat Steam + O 2 Steam Main Product Typical pressures: 1-30 bar 30 bar bar Focus of R&D efforts and industrial demonstrations Special technology for biomass Commercially available technology: experiences from coal, oil and natural gas processing
4 4 Production of Biomass-Derived Synthesis Gas Initial step - two main approaches Main technical challenge: prehandling, feeding of biomass Biomass BIOMASS PRE- TREATMENT Dry Pulver or Pyrolysis oil GASIFIER 1300 ºC + Raw synthesis gas to cooling, clean-up and conditioning Typically: oxygen-blown entrained-flow gasifier Main technical challenge: reforming of gas Biomass GASIFIER e.g. 850 ºC REFORMER 900 ºC catalytic Raw synthesis gas to cooling, clean-up and conditioning Typically: fluidised-bed gasifier, either oxygen-blown or indirectly heated
5 5 Oxygen-Blown Entrained-Flow Gasifiers Large-scale, high-pressure Commercially available for coal and heavy oil Gasification temperature C No tars in raw gas Feedstock size < 0.1 mm Not applicable as such to solid biomass; main problem: feeding examples of solutions: prior pyrolysis on site (Choren Carbo-V ) prior pyrolysis elsewhere (FZK-ITC concept) torrefaction followed by pelletisation and grinding special fuel: black liquor (Chemrec) FEEDSTOCK SLAG OXYGEN & STEAM GAS
6 6 Fluidised-Bed Gasifiers Atmospheric or intermediate pressure Feedstock size < mm Gas temperature C Commercially available in power and heat applications O 2 -blown direct heating or steam gasification with indirect heating GAS CIRCULATING FLUIDISED BED (CFB) Fluidising velocity 3-10 m/s Higher output/diameter Reactive feedstocks BUBBLING FLUIDISED BED (BFB) Fluidising velocity 1-3 m/s Long residence time FEEDSTOCK AIR ASH Applicable to biomass, technologies for synthesis-gas applications in demonstration phase
7 7 Peat from MoDo steam dryer HTW gasifier Steam SYNGAS FROM PEAT AND WOOD HTW-PLANT AT OULU KEMIRA AMMONIA PLANT, 120 MW fuel, (operation in ) Peat crush moisture 15 % 10bar C Waste heat boiler Benzene from naphthalene extraction Benzene scrubber Gas to amisol scrubber 1500 k mol/h 29 bar Steam Oxygen Recycle gas Water scrubber To naphthalene extraction Improvements to the process: Dust Sludge separation HTW gasifier replaced by CFB - fuel flexibility, high availability - operation at lower temperature Ash Pressurised steam/o 2 -blown gasifier Technology was successfully demonstrated in late 1980 s with peat and lignite (Oulu, Berrenrath) Single gasifier train MW feasible New gas cooler design - not sensitive to fouling Hot filtration instead of wet scrubbing of particulates Reforming of hydrocarbons - elimination of tar problem - higher syngas yield - higher H2/CO ratio
8 8 Gasification and Gas Cleaning Process - Developed and tested at VTT on 1 MW scale -Demonstrated in the 12 MW industrial plant by NSE Biofuels at Varkaus NEW INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY FUEL-FLEXIBLE FLUID-BED GASIFICATION STEAM/OXYGEN PRESSURISED GAS CLEANING TAR & METHANE REFORMING FILTRATION DIRTY SHIFT ULTRA CLEANUP FT-DIESEL CH 3 OH HYDROGEN SNG GASOLINE JET FUEL GASIFIER TARGETS NO ASH-RELATED PROBLEMS SIMPLE DESIGN AND HIGH RELIABILITY HIGH C-CONVERSION TO GAS+TARS LOW OXYGEN CONSUMPTION GAS CLEANING TARGETS COMPLETE TAR DECOMPOSITION 60-80% METHANE REFORMING H 2 /CO RATIO SUITABLE TO FT-SYNTHESIS

13 13 Syngas Route to Biofuels Integrated Concept Paper or pulp Process steam & power power plant Pulp and paper mill Energy to drying Gasification and gas treatment fuel gas + steam MW Forestry residues, mill residues, straw, energy crops, urban biowaste Biomass handling and drying MW bark, forestry residues, other biomass steam & oxygen synthesis -gas Synthesis & upgrading MW Hydrocarbon fuels (FT) or methanol, DME, SNG, H 2, etc.
14 14 Biorefinery BTL Demonstration Plans in Finland Three consortiums are presently planning second-generation BTL biorefineries in Finland The planned capacities are ton/a of diesel EU s NER300 funding has been applied - decisions expected at the end of 2012 Overall investment costs in order of million? Several sites have been investigated by companies Very large-scale is needed to achieve positive economics? First plants will be more expensive than mature technology?
15 15 Biomass-to-Syngas R&D at VTT NEXTUCG: Industrial development project funded by NSE Biofuels (Neste Oil and Stora Enso), co-operation with Foster Wheeler Resulted in NER300 proposal large FT-production unit PRODUCTION OF SNG OR H2 FROM BIOMASS Evaluation of process alternatives less capital intensive and suitable to smaller size that BtL plants Pre-competitive R&D on gasification and gas cleaning US-CO-OPERATION PROJECT ON EVALUATION OF GASIFICATION-BASED SYSTEMS Ilkka Hannula as visiting scientist at Princeton University Co-utilisation of biomass and coal for liquids and electricity and combinations of biotechnical and thermochemical routes Evaluation of US development projects Aspen modelling of selected concepts and technologies NORDSYNGAS: Nordic University co-operation: Luleå, Piteå, Sinteff, VTT Fundamental aspects of pressurised gasification System studies related to integrated plants to pulp and paper industries GASIFICATION REACTIVITY Fundamental research with Åbo Akademi and Jyväskylä University Funded by Finnish Akademy
16 16 Reactivity and ash sintering behavior of biomass set limits for gasifier operation conditions Large differences between different biomasses: fate of inorganic species during gasification => inherent catalysis for H 2 O and CO 2 gasification Effect of pressure on reactivity different than in coal gasification R&D topics in this field Thermobalance tests with new biomass samples Fundamental R&D with universities & modeling of char gasification
17 17 Possible ways to improve the synthesis gas route - preliminary plans for new R&D in Optimised high-pressure steam-oxygen gasification process aiming to improved fuel-to-syngas conversion efficiency and to wider feedstock basis (above 200 MW scale) Indirectly heated or air-blown gasification processes for smaller size range ( MW) Simplified final gas cleaning to replace Rectisol Syntheses/catalysts with less stringent gas purity requirements compared with present processes - Higher inert concentration (N 2 ) - Lower requirements for CO 2 removal - Higher tolerance for sulphur Co-production of fuels, heat and electricity integration to forest industries and district heating
18 18 Process Scheme for Production of SNG Oxygen plant Oxygen Steam: 0.44 kg/ kg of dry biomass HP Steam Large steam feed lowers thermal efficiency HP Steam LP Steam Moist feedstock Dryer Gasifier Reforming HT Shift Heat Combustor HP Steam Scrubbercooler Minimal reforming of CH 4 Steam: 1.15 kg/ kg of dry biomass Regenerative Absorber I Regenerative Absorber I LP Steam Methanator I LP Steam CW H 2 O Methanator II Main SNG synthesis reaction: CO + 3H 2 From: McKeough & Kurkela, 2007 SNG 96 % CH 4 50 bar CH 4 + H 2 O Recycle loop lowers thermal efficiency
