Combustion versus Gasification in Power- and Biomass-to-X Processes: An Exergetic Analysis.

ABSTRACT: Residual biomass is a promising carbon feedstock for the production of electricity-based organic chemicals and fuels since, unlike carbon dioxide captured from point sources or air, it also has a valuable energy input. Biomass can be converted into an intermediate stream suitable for Power-to-X processes mainly via combustion or gasification. Such combined processes are generally called biohybrid or Power- and Biomass-to-X processes. To investigate the potential of biomass utilization in Power- and Biomass-to-X processes and identify inherent efficiency differences between these pathways, we model the process units with simple mass and energy balances considering empirical parameters for the key process units and perform an exergetic analysis. The analysis is conducted for several molecule
