Dear All, one requires about 700C temperature for making producer gas. This is generally achieved by burning the feedstock itself, for which one introduces external air into the reactor. As a result, the producer gas gets diluted by the nitrogen in the air. If the process can be conducted in a closed vessel, which is heated from the outside, one can get combustible gas without all the nitrogen, but heating the feedstock inside a container cannot achieve the temperature that is required for producing producer gas, so that what one gets is primarily tar vapour. Has anyone thought of using a catalyst for getting pyrolysis gas at say 300 C? It would help me greatly, if such a catalyst were available. Yours A.D.Karve
