A design of a sampling train suitable for the analysis of raw producer gas from biomass gasifiers is presented. The sampler was designed to allow sampling of gas streams at a wide range of temperatures and tar concentrations and to facilitate the separation of gases, particulate, tar and aqueous fractions. The procedure for the collection, separation and analysis was evaluated on the results obtained from the biomass fluidized bed gasifier located at B.C. Research, Vancouver, B.C.
