The exact synthetic chemistry which produces PAH in a fuel-rich flame is not well known, even today. It is clear, however, that PAH can be produced from almost any fuel burned under oxygen deficient conditions. Since soot is also formed under these conditions, PAH are almost always found associated with soot. As an example of the PAH assemblage produced by combustion systems. Figure 1 shows gas chromatographic mass spectrometry (GCMS) data for PAH produced by the combustion of kerosene ( ). The structures of the major compounds are also given in Figure 1. We draw the reader s attention to a number of features of this PAH mix-... 

The increased efficiency in IGCC systems translates into environmental benefits because emissions per unit energy produced are lower. This includes CO, NOx, SOx, C02, and particulates. NOx and SOx emissions are inherently lower in biomass IGCC systems because biomass fuels tend to have low N and S contents to start with, and gas cleanup and conditioning in biomass gasification systems removes these impurities before the syngas is combusted in the gas turbine. The same is true for particulates. C02 emissions are effectively zero, because biomass is a renewable fuel.
