Take home messages
§ Successful biomass gasifica4on plants built con4nuously since late 1970 § Suitable technology depends on feedstock, scale and applica4on § More demanding applica4ons require cleaner gas –> increase in CAPEX § Large CAPEX calls for large scale and high on-‐stream factors § Waste gasifica4on brings down feedstock costs but puts addi4onal requirements for technology
§ No clear answer to “what fuel to produce”. Solu4on is systemic. § Technology for synthe4c biofuels produc4on technically demonstrated at precommercial scale –> near-‐term deployment possible
