摘要

An important step in developing clean energy and reducing greenhouse gas emissions is the use of clean technologies such as gasification. In this work, we were used a bubbling fluidized bed (BFB) to convert the bitumen oil into a clean syngas in presence of three kinds of Ni/dolomite catalysts. While all three catalysts were acceptable in the process of tar elimination, but DN-22 was more successful in eliminating tar than the other two samples, which might be due to the higher amount of CaO in the composition DN-22. With increase in Ni, the amount of eliminated tars in the tar cracking process was also increased due to the delay in the deactivation of the dolomite catalyst;
