Abstract

The paper describes the process of thermochemical wood waste processing in to dimethyl ether. The physical picture of the process of waste wood recycling was compiled and studied and the mathematical model in the form of differential and algebraic equations with initial and boundary conditions was developed on its basis. The mathematical model allows to determine the optimum operating parameters of synthesis gas producing process, suitable for the catalytic synthesis of dimethyl ether and to calculate the basic constructive parameters of the equipment flowsheet.
