A feedstock delivery system transfers a carbonaceous material, such as municipal solid waste, into a product gas generation system. The feedstock delivery system includes a splitter for splitting bulk carbonaceous material into a plurality of carbonaceous material streams. Each stream is processed using a weighing system for gauging the quantity of carbonaceous material, a densification system for forming plugs of carbonaceous material, a de-densification system for breaking up the plugs of carbonaceous material, and a gas and carbonaceous material mixing system for forming a carbonaceous material and gas mixture. A pressure of the mixing gas is reduced prior to mixing with the carbonaceous material, and the carbonaceous material to gas weight ratio is monitored. A transport assembly conveys the carbonaceous material and gas mixture to a first reactor where at least the carbonaceous material within the mixture is subject to thermochemical reactions to form the product gas.

A gasification stove includes an upper housing including an upper hollow body and a dome section, and a lower housing including a lower hollow body that form a stove chamber when connected to each other. A separator for collecting a gas and flame generated from burning of the biomass is arranged in the stove chamber and includes a bowl section and a chimney section. The bowl section has a first set of holes, and an upper part of the chimney section has a second set of holes. The upper part of the chimney section is air-tightly attached to an edge of a chimney opening of the upper housing. At least some of the gas flows through the first set of holes and the second set of holes to enter into the chimney section so as to react with the flame or hot air in the chimney section to generate additional flame power.

An integrated apparatus of industrial furnace and biomass gasification system and a process of operating said system are disclosed. Hot flue gas containing high concentration of CO.sub.2 and water issued from an industrial furnace such as a glass furnace or a melting furnace for non-ferrous metals is introduced into a biomass gasification system as a heat source to promote the pyrolysis of biomass and/or as a gasification agent to generate syngas. The generated syngas is blended with solid-fuel such as petcoke before being introduced into the industrial furnace to facilitate ignition and combustion of petcoke. Overall CO.sub.2, NO.sub.x and SO.sub.x emission from the industrial furnace are reduced, and the lifetime of the industrial furnace is increased.
