This technology integrates into a single unit the steam gasification of biomass and the hot gas cleaning and conditioning system. Both components of the computational tool, process flowsheet and economic evaluator, have been developed under IPSEpro software. The economic model provides information that can help potential users, especially small and medium size enterprises acting in the regenerable energy field, to decide the optimal scale of a plant and to better understand both potentiality and limits of the system when applied to a wide range of conditions.}, journal = {International Journal of Chemical and Molecular Engineering}, volume = {5}, number = {4}, year = {2011}, pages = {408 - 413}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/7295}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/52}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 52, 2011}, }
