Gasification of solid fuels such as coals, lignite and biomasses has been studied using isothermal and non-isothermal thermogravimetric analysis (TG) with CO2 as gasifying agent. Non-isothermal TG of three Indian coals (two bituminous and one sub-bituminous coal), one lignite and two biomass fuels (Casuarina and empty fruit bunches) at a constant heating rate of 20 A degrees C min(-1) in the temperature range from 25 to 1200 A degrees C showed a clear separation of DTG peaks associated with pyrolysis and CO2 gasification. Based on these studies, isothermal TG experiments were conducted in the temperature range from 900 to 1100 A degrees C for coals and from 800 to 1000 A degrees C for biomass fuels. These results show that the CO2 gasification rate follows coal rank for the three coals and the lignite. The two biomasses have significantly higher reactivities than the three coals. The higher reactivity of one coal is attributed to the presence of calcium-containing minerals in its inorganic matter. The kinetic parameters for each fuel were extracted from the isothermal TG results using the volumetric reaction model for the coals and a zeroth-order model for biomass fuels. Biomass and lignite are found to have a much higher reactivity index and much lower conversion time than the three coals under identical conditions.
