- Abstract
Increasing efficiency in combustion processes is set as a goal in all the research and innovation, energy and environment strategies. Gasification boilers work under nominal conditions while maintaining a temperature of about 200 °C along the smoke flue in order to avoid the deposition of coal tar. This paper presents some solutions to increase efficiency of wood gasification boilers by recovering heat from the gas exhausted at the smoke flue (which otherwise would be lost to the atmosphere) and reintroducing it in the gasification or combustion air circuit. The energy thus re-introduced into the combustion process can increase efficiency of gasification boilers by a few percentage points, which means that significant amounts of biomass are saved and the process of global warming slows down.
