HSE Gasification Guide: Guideline for Safe and Eco-Friendly Biomass Gasification
Harrie Knoef, HSE, June 4, 2007

Poor awareness and lack of understanding of the Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) hazards in the project development, planning, design, construction stage and during operation and maintenance of gasification plants is recognized as a major non-technical obstacle. The project "Guideline for Safe and Eco-friendly Biomass Gasification" aims to effectively tackle this barrier.

This website provides information on Health, Safety and Environmental aspects of biomass gasification plants. It is designed and constructed for owners of gasification plants, manufacturers, project developers, investors, researchers, and implementers of biomass gasification systems.

The objective is to accelerate the market penetration of relatively small scale biomass gasification systems (

"Gasification Guide"is a project supported by the Intelligent Energy for Europe programme under contract.no. EIE-06-078
