Biomass Gasifier ''Tars'': Their Nature, Formation, and Conversion

Thomas A. Milne, Robert John Evans, N Abatzaglou

Abstract

The main purpose of this review is to update the information on gasification tar, the most cumbersome and problematic parameter in any gasification commercialization effort. The work aims to present to the community the scientific and practical aspects of tar formation and conversion (removal) during gasification as a function of the various technological and technical parameters and variables.
