This paper is focused on the design of a bubbling fluidized bed gasifier (BFBG) for EFB briquette gasification. The annual production of palm oil in Malaysia generates large quantities of lignocellulosic biomass which can be converted into clean, sustainable energy for the future. Hence, the prospect of valorising palm waste using biomass gasifiers presents a viable option for energy production. The fluidized bed gasifier (FBG) is considered the most suitable reactor for biomass gasification due excellent mixing, efficient heat temperature control and tolerance for fuels. Consequently, the proposed design of the bubbling fluidized bed gasifier for EFB briquette gasification will consist of three main parts; feeding zone, gasification zone and the effluent gas zone for syngas production. The results of feedstock physicochemical properties such as bulk density, particle size, the bed hydrodynamic and fluidization parameters for gasification used in the design of the gasifier are presented in this paper.
