| Abstract | Introduction The current focus of biomass conversion research and development is to produce fuel derived from cellulosic biomass, especially waste biomass or feedstock grown on marginal lands that generate little carbon today. Gasification of biomass feedstock to generate syngas for further downstream fuel synthesis is a viable and promising approach. Biomass feedstocks contain low percentages of protein-derived sulfur which is converted primarily to H2S during gasification. The H2S concentrations, on a dry basis, in biomass-derived syngas range from about 20–50 ppmv for hardwood to 500–600 ppmv for corn stover. The sulfur content of the syngas needs to be removed because it deactivates catalysts used downstream and is corrosive. |
