Experimental Analysis of Brewers’ Spent Grains Steam Gasification in an Allothermal Batch Reactor

In this work, brewers’ spent grains (BSG) were evaluated and studied in order to obtain a combustible gas by means of allothermal steam gasification. BSG were preprocessed in a rotary dryer and a pelletizer prior to gasification in an indirectly heated batch reactor. BSG characterization w...
