It provides an overview of the development of biomass gasification (BMG)including demonstrations of circulating fluidised bed BMG processes; bubbling fluidised bed BMG processes; moving-bed BMG processes; multi-stage, indirectly heated and other types of BMG processes; plus commentary on the ‘research to resolve technical hurdles’; and perspectives on the path forward.
