Syngas combustion is the process of burning synthesis gas, a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide, which offers cleaner emissions compared to conventional fuels but faces challenges due to its variable composition and potential .

This combustion can achieve lower particulate matter and volatile organic compounds, but the higher temperatures resulting from its hydrogen content can increase emissions. Strategies like lean burning, using specific combustion modes like PREMIER, or using dual-fuel systems are employed to control emissions and optimize performance.
 
Benefits and drawbacks
• Benefits:
• Lower particulate matter and volatile organic compounds: Syngas combustion typically produces fewer particulates and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) compared to fossil fuels, particularly when impurities are removed beforehand. 
• Lower carbon monoxide (CO) and nitrogen oxides (

): Studies show that syngas can result in significantly lower

and CO emissions compared to gasoline and natural gas, especially under certain conditions. 
• Wide flammability range: The wide flammability range of syngas makes lean-burning conditions favorable, which can improve efficiency and reduce emissions. 
• Drawbacks:
• High

potential: The high hydrogen content in syngas combustion can lead to elevated temperatures, which promotes the formation of thermal

. 
• Carbon dioxide emissions: While other pollutants may decrease,

emissions can be higher compared to some conventional fuels, depending on the syngas composition and combustion efficiency. 
• Variable composition: The exact composition of syngas varies depending on the feedstock and production method (e.g., gasification of biomass), which can significantly affect combustion characteristics and emissions. 
Optimization and control strategies
• Lean burning: 
Operating engines in a lean state (high air-to-fuel ratio) is a key strategy to control temperature and reduce

formation. 
• Advanced combustion modes: 
Research is exploring novel combustion modes, such as the "PREMIER" mode, to achieve more efficient and cleaner combustion. 
• Dual-fuel operation: 
In compression-ignition (CI) engines, using syngas in a dual-fuel configuration with a pilot fuel (like diesel) can improve efficiency and control emissions. 
• Engine controls: 
Adaptive engine control strategies are necessary to handle the variability in syngas composition and optimize performance and emissions. 
• Emissions control: 
Specific pollutants like particulates and metallic compounds are often removed before combustion to improve the environmental friendliness of the process. 
Applications
• Heat and power generation: 
Syngas is used in gas turbines and engines for combined heat and power (CHP) systems. 
• Internal combustion engines: 
Syngas can be used in both spark-ignition (SI) and compression-ignition (CI) engines, either as a replacement for conventional fuel or in dual-fuel operation. 
syngas composition
Syngas is primarily a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen, with smaller amounts of carbon dioxide and methane. Its exact composition varies significantly depending on the feedstock and the gasification process.
