Abstract

Biomass gasification is a hot topic as renewable energy technology for its wide range of application and capability to be integrated as waste to energy technology as well. Laboratory of biomass gasification of Indonesia has designed a micro scale rice husk gasifier to serves 10 kW of electricity of agricultural sector. The study was carried out by doing a simulation of small-scale rice husk gasifier by varying its working operations. simulation provides overview of syngas composition and showed the maximum LHV value of 6.47 MJ/Nm3 at ER 0.25 followed by increase in the maximum CGE value of 83% at a temperature of 900°C. Furthermore, the integration of renewable technology must consider the economical aspect. The gasifier has an LCOE value ranging from 0.014 USD/kW - 0.089 USD/kW depending on the use of the Gasifier. The feasibility of using rice husk gasifier also inspected using NPV, Benefits to Cost Ratio and Payback Period (PBP).
