Proceedings of first USAID/GOI workshop on alternative energy resources and development: coal conversion and biomass conversion

Conference · Sat Jan 01 00:00:00 EST 1983

OSTI ID:6417023

The purpose of the workshop was to provide a forum for the technical exchange of information between the US and India in the areas of coal/biomass conversion. The major coal areas are: fluidized-bed combustion, gas cleanup, coal-water mixtures, and coal cleaning. The major biomass areas are development of a village-level gasifier, utilization of producer gas in small engines, and development and field testing of a small wood-based gasifier engine. Twelve papers are presented in outline form only. Eleven of the papers are included with texts. The latter have been indexed separately for inclusion in the Energy Data Base. (DMC)
