Answer to Question 1

Gasification differs from steam and thermal oil in that in gasification the biomass feedstock is not fully combusted.

Answer to Question 2

The four steps are:

(1) Pressurize the working fluid with a pump

(2) Heat the working fluid to boiling or beyond boiling, thus converting it to a dry saturated vapor

(3) Expand the dry vapor in a turbine, which extracts a large portion of the energy from the vapor, in turn cooling it and thus causing it to become a saturated vapor at reduced pressure

(4) Condense the wet vapor back to a low-pressure liquid by cooling it in a condenser at a constant temperature
