The discrepancy between quality and quantity of heat is the main problem for heat recovery from gases with high relative humidity. The integration of open absorption cycles into the apparatus results in an increased heat recovery temperature and higher dehumidification of the flue gas. The application of high temperature condensing boiler technology (HT‐CBT) is demonstrated in a biomass gasification plant with subsequent use of the gasification gas in a CHP engine.
