abstract = {Gasification of dried sewage sludge, which contains a high percentage of nitrogen, was experimentally studied to determine the effects of some operational parameters, such as freeboard temperature and equivalence ratio, on the partitioning of the fuel nitrogen among nitrogenous species. Experiments were performed using a bench-scale fluidized-bed gasifier and according to a well-specified procedure implemented to recover and quantify the nitrogen compounds. A mixture of argon and oxygen in similar proportions to air was used as a gasification agent in order to correctly quantify the N2 produced in the gasification process in an experimental way. Important findings of this research include the following: applying the analytical procedure developed in this work, a reasonably good inventory of nitrogen in the gasification products was obtained (mass balance closures near to 100%); most of the nitrogen goes to form gaseous products, N2 being the main gaseous nitrogen-containing product obtained; concentrations of N2, NH3, and N-tar in the producer gas strongly depend on the freeboard temperature, an increase of which causes an important decrease of both NH 3 and N-tar contents and a substantial increase of the N2 amount. textcopyright 2009 American Chemical Society.},

Sewage sludge is the waste produced in the wastewater treatment plants. Its composition may change due to the origin and to the non-standardized treatments in the wastewater treatment plants. The pyrolysis of three samples of anaerobically digested sewage sludge obtained from three different urban wastewater treatment plants was studied in this work.

The increase of the volatile content of the sewage sludge samples caused an increase in the liquid yield. The H2 proportion was the most influenced non-condensable gas. It increased significantly with the ash content. The viscosity of the pyrolysis oils decreased when the ash content augmented.
