Municipal Solid Waste
Syngas Composition Municipal solid waste contains plastics, paper, food waste, textiles, and other materials. Its highly variable composition makes gasification more challenging.
Syngas from municipal waste often requires advanced cleaning systems because it may contain:
- Chlorine compounds
- Sulfur compounds
- Heavy metals
- Tar
- Fine particulates
Despite these challenges, waste gasification offers an effective method for reducing landfill use while recovering valuable energy.

Factors Influencing Syngas Heating Value
Syngas Composition The heating value of syngas depends mainly on the concentration of combustible gases.
Hydrogen
Hydrogen contributes to clean combustion and fast flame propagation but has a lower volumetric energy density than methane.
Carbon Monoxide
Carbon monoxide provides a significant portion of the fuel value and plays a major role in combustion and chemical synthesis.
Methane
Methane has a higher calorific value than hydrogen and carbon monoxide, making it an important contributor to the overall energy content of syngas.
Carbon Dioxide and Nitrogen
Carbon dioxide and nitrogen do not burn under normal combustion conditions. Higher concentrations of these gases reduce the heating value by diluting the combustible components.
