The research results are presented by the authors in the modeling of performance indicators of the operation of biomass gasification installations using artificial neural networks, starting by the classification of the information derived from the systemic analysis of its operation. A bibliographical study of previous related researches was developed. A 3N experimental plan with 3 replicas is made in order to generate four models according to their own performance indicators using neural networks. The quality indicators of the neural networks are compared with those obtained by nonlineal regression models. As biomass the Oryza sativa is used

In the present study, the control of the pyrolysis temperature was carried out in a gasification process of eucalyptus wood, its prediction is made based on the operating parameters of the reactor to ensure the obtaining of a synthesis gas with the required quality. The results obtained from the mathematical modeling for the prediction of the pyrolysis temperature with the use of artificial intelligence techniques and the development of artificial neural networks are shown, with experimental data of the process. For this reason, an experimental statistical design of type 3n was implemented, with two additional replications, by means of which the training of an artificial neural network capable of predicting the pyrolysis temperature in a downdraft type gasifier with cogeneration was carried out. The prediction of the pyrolysis temperature has an error of 4.6 oC and an adjustment of 93.71...

The research results obtained on the effect that occurs on the properties of the synthesis gas obtained as a result of a biomass downdraft gasification process is presents in this paper, working with a cogeneration system internal to the reactor. A study of the previous related works was carried out, from which the dependent and independent variables necessary to evaluate the final quality of the process in the presence and absence of cogeneration were determined. For this, an experimental statistical design of four levels of type 4n was implemented, which allowed the performance of a comparative statistical analysis of the working states of the gasifier. On the other hand, an energy and exergy analysis of both states is presented where the potential of the gasification process to reuse thermal energy can be verified by incorporating a cogeneration system.

El objetivo de la investigación es el estudio de la pistia stratiotes (lechuguín de agua) con diferentes tipos de humedad como potencial fuente energética renovable de biomasa, en donde se determina su poder calorífico mediante el proceso de secado y fabricación de probetas estandarizadas que serán ensayadas en una bomba calorimétrica adiabática, equipo que pertenece al Laboratorio de Conversión de Energía de la Universidad de las Fuerzas Armadas – ESPE. Con este estudio se pretende aprovechar a esta planta acuática que está considerada dentro de las 100 malezas más invasoras a nivel mundial como un vector energético ya que la misma se ha constituido en un grave problema para los biomas hídricos invadidos y represas pertenecientes a centrales hidroeléctricas como Paute, así como también represas para riego agrícola.
