This work examines the hydrogen gas yield and trace pollutants partitioning in automobile shredder residue (ASR) catalytic gasification by fixed bed and fluidized bed gasifier with controlling at equilibrium ratio (ER) 0.2, temperature 900 degrees C, and 5%-15% prepared catalyst addition. Oyster shell (OS) is a valuable resource due to its higher calcium content that it could prepare as a catalyst for enhancing the hydrogen production in ASR gasification. In the case of the fixed bed gasifier experiments, the highest lower heating value (LHV) and syngas production were found at 900 degrees C and 10% OS catalyst addition. The maximum H-2 and CO composition were 6.57% and 5.97%, respectively. The LHV of syngas was approximately 4.43 MJ/Nm(3). The fluidized bed gasifier could provide a good ASR decomposition and heat transfer behavior. The syngas yield results indicated the maximum H-2 and CO composition were 12.12% and 10.59%, respectively. It was obviously showed that the syngas production and energy conversion efficiency were enhanced by applying fluidized bed gasifier. The maximum produced gas LHV was 10.77 MJ/Nm(3) as well as the cold gas efficiency (CGE) of produced gas was 71.62%. On the other hand, the volatile sulfur and chlorine speciation formed in ASR gasification were mainly partitioned in the solid and/or liquid phase. It implied that tested OS catalysts could inhibit the volatile sulfur and chlorine speciation emission in the produced gas as well as enhance the produced gas quality. In summary, this research could provide basic insight into enhanced syngas production and quality in ASR catalytic gasification using the prepared OS catalyst.
