Abstract
Malaysia has only 33 years of natural gas and 19 years of oil reserve. Syngas has the potential to replace the conventional fuel use in combustion process. During syngas combustion in excess air condition, pollutant is formed. This study is analysed the effect of excess air to pollutant formation and emission in a full scale combustor firing syngas and to investigate the effect of variable mass flow rate to the combustor. In this study, can-type combustor is used for the simulation. To compare the result, four cases with different air mass flow rate are simulated. This study emphasizes on the temperature behaviour, velocity analysis and pollutant emission. The result then compared and discuss with natural gas combustion to see which fuel source produce more pollutant emission.
