Abstract

Biomass gasification is a prominent thermochemical technique to transform biomass into usable energy and products with diverse end applications. This chapter provides an overview of the essentials such as classification of feedstocks, influence of various parameters, techno-economics and, finally, the limitations and benefits of different gasification technologies. Progress in the gasification pathway along with the reduction in adverse socio-environmental effects are indispensable to enhance the sustainability and long-term viability of biomass gasification. This chapter clarifies several aspects of biomass gasification as a promising technology.
