Abstract: We have studied an updraft gasifier with sun-dried mangrove wood as fuel. The airflow rate (0.37–0.51 kg/min) and the wood size (2–5 cm long and about 5 cm dia) were varied. Contours were constructed to define optimum values of energy content, CO and CH4. The maxima were 3.666 MJ/m3 for energy content and 28.77 and 4.98 vol% for CO and CH4, respectively.
