High temperature steam gasification of sawdust was studied at atmospheric pressure in a fixed bed reactor. Experiments were carried out at 750,800, 850, 900, 950 and 1000 ℃ with different steam flow rates in the range of 0.32 to 1.02 g/min and a reaction time of 10 min. The effects of temperature and steam flow rate on carbon conversion, synthesis gas yield, heat value and its compositions were mainly studied. It has been found that steam gasification of sawdust was highly reactive, particularly at high temperature; synthesis gas yield was in the range of 0.81-1.74 L/g. The results showed that steam flow rate and temperature have strong effects on the carbon conversion, synthesis gas yield, heat value and its compositions. The conversion of this char was maximum (99.47%) at 950 ℃ with steam flow rates of 0.67 g/rain. The product gas obtained was mainly a mixture of H2, CO, COs, and CH4. Under the present reaction conditions, synthesis gas (H~ + CO) produced by steam gasification of char was in the range of 63%-75%, The low heating value of the product gas was in the range of 10.5-11.5 MJ/m3, and the H2/CO molar ratio was about 1.0-2.3. The results suggest that there is a strong potential for producing synthesis gas from steam gasification of sawdust.
