TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of biomass processing technology, especially to a system for preparing renewable natural gas by using biomass. BACKGROUND
[0002] Natural gas is a high-calorific-value clean fuel easy to transport, and compared with coal and oil, natural gas emits relatively less CO2 and pollutants in its utilization process, is called "low-carbon energy", and is an ideal energy in the world today. However, natural gas is a non-renewable resource, and the reserves in the world are limited, which brings about a serious supply-demand contradiction and then triggers a series of social, economic and other problems. The preparation of renewable natural gas by biochemical or thermochemical conversion of biomass is a green and sustainable energy solution. At the same time, synthetic natural gas is also an effective method to solve the volatility and randomness of solar and wind power generation, and an effective method to absorb surplus power of the power system.
[0003] As the only renewable organic carbon source, biomass has the characteristics of large reserves, wide sources and low environmental impact, and is an important part of renewable energy and an internationally recognized zero-carbon renewable fuel.
