Overview: The use of biomass and waste for energy production contributes substantially in reduction of CO2 emissions. System studies showed that gasification in combination with Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) could achieve an overall efficiency of 50%. In the framework of the NOVEM program "Energie Winning uit Afval en Biomassa (EWAB)", a project was executed to test and proof the principles of connecting gasification and SOFC and measure its electrical output efficiency. The outcome of this project showed that the principle works and the achieved SOFC efficiency is 41% LHV. Some side effects were observed (e.g. soot formation) which influenced the outcome negatively.
