Thermochemical conversion of CO2 in biomass gasification is a promising technology for utilizing CO2 as a feedstock to produce a CO-rich gas. Simultaneous decomposition reactions of biomass and various gas-solid and gas-gas reactions form the product gas in this process. The overlap in sub-processes makes it challenging to assess the conversion of feedstock CO2 with common methods like mass balancing. This work introduces stable carbon isotope ratio analysis (δ13C) to identify the sourcing of carbonaceous product gas components and determine the conversion of CO2. This methodology is applied to evaluate experiments conducted for one hour of continuous operation in a lab-scale fluidized bed gasifier. Softwood pellets and wood char are used as fuel, with Olivine as a bed material, a target heating temperature of 1000 °C and atmospheric pressure. Product gas with more than 80 vol% CO was generated when wood char was used as fuel. Stable carbon isotope measurements show that CO2 is converted at 48–93% in this process, underpinning the position of biomass CO2 gasification as carbon capture and utilization technology. These results were up to 25% higher than suggested by mass balancing, with higher discrepancies at lower CO2 conversions when using softwood as fuel. Therefore, stable carbon isotope ratio measurement can be a valuable tool for improving the process understanding of biomass CO2 gasification. The results can be used for carbon accounting and the technical development of gasifiers with high CO2 utilization efficiency. |
