Abstract

India has many no of renewable energy resources. In that Biomass Gasifier plays a major role as an alternate energy source. But it facing lot of practical problems on operation due to shortage of manpower and also several problems may happen in these gasifiers. To overcome the above problems we go for automatic control systems in this gasifier. Therefore we can neglect the human efforts, errors and operators of the gasifier won’t get affected by the out coming gases from the gasifiers due to this automation. The gasifier itself works according to the program which we have given. Automation is done in the miscellaneous function, fuel feeding system and all biomass gasifier control system by using PLC (Programmable Logic Controller). And then we develop the ladder logic program for sequence of operation in gasifier control system. In this system the ladder logic function is programmed by using INDRALOGIC software and the hardware component of PLC is Rexroth Bosch product.
