Özet
Gasification of different types of biomass in a lab scale up-draft fixed bed gasifier is evaluated from the environmental effect perspective through Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). Biomass is an energy source which has a lot of potential for electricity generation, and it is considered as an environmentally friendly renewable energy source. Gasification of the biomass has been considered as a significant renewable energy production alternative to fossil fuels. Biomass through gasification forms a syngas which includes H2, CH4, CO and as a solid by-product biochar is produced at high temperatures. In this study, LCA is used as a tool for assess the different environmental impact categories of the energy production from green waste and biological treatment sludge gasification studies, with the cradle to grave approach. Different hydrogen conversion technologies via LCA have been also assessed. LCA calculations were performed by using SimaPro 9.1 software and experimental data collected from LCA database and a lab scale gasifier operated in Dokuz Eylul University, Turkey.
