The invention pertains to the technical field of biomass energy utilization and particularly relates to a device which adopts biomass for preparing gas and comprises a lower furnace door, an ash discharging mouth, an ash bin, a grate, a combustion chamber, a thermal insulation bin, a gas inlet, a storage bin, a feed inlet, a furnace cover, a gas pipe, a gas outlet, a porous medium, an air secondary inlet, an air primary inlet and an air pipe; the cracking type biomass gasifier is characterized in that: a gas primary outlet, the porous medium, the gas pipe and the gas outlet form a gas transmission pipeline which is arranged in the storage bin; the gas transmission pipeline is a U-shaped pipe or a spiral coil; and the porous medium is thermal storage ceramic material or tar catalyst material such as dolomite, olivine, clay ore, charcoal, alkali metal compound, nickel base, etc. When going through a combustion area through the gas pipe, the gas is not mixed and burned with the air in the combustion area, therefore, the difficult technical problem that the air and the gas in the existing down-draft biomass gasifier are easy to be burnt out; and the gas can be heated in the combustion area through the gas pipe, and the tar contained in the gas is further converted through the thermal storage, filtering and catalysis of the porous medium, thus reducing the tar content of the biomass gas, and simultaneously improving the conversion rate and the thermal value of gas.
