Traditional fossil fuel overuse could lead to global warming and environmental pollution. As a renewable energy, biomass energy is a sustainable and low pollution carbon energy, which has a wide range of sources. Syngas production from biomass thermochemical conversion is a promising technology to realize effective utilization of the renewable energy. Syngas produced from gasification could be further converted into value-added chemicals via the method of Fischer-Tropsch synthesis. Syngas and CO2 methanation could transform renewable energy into feasible transport and high-density energy. However, tar formation and catalyst deactivation are the main problem during the biomass gasification and methanation. This review sheds light on the development of biomass gasification and syngas methanation. Firstly, we presented the common reactors and some other factors during gasification. Secondly, we provide a comprehensive introduction of the advanced active catalyst for gasification and syngas methanation. Finally, some representative large-scale and commercial plants and companies for biomass gasification were compared and discussed in details. Then the prospective developments in combination of gasification and methanation were concluded to give an outlook for biomass gasification and its downstream development.
