I have a biomass with given ultimate and proximate analysis data. I am using Aspen plus for the simulation of gasification of biomass. In experimental data the gasifying agent air flow rate is given in terms of Equivalence ratio 0.2. How to convert it to mass flow rate (kg/hr) for my simulation to fed into aspen plus?

Work out the air consumption required to completely oxidise the C, H, N, S, on a molar basis etc to their oxides, exactly. Knowing the number of moles of O2 will give you the necessary no. of moles of air. That is ER=1, then from the required air consumption for ER=1, multiply by 0.2 to get the air flow. You can reference it from moles to 1 kg of feedstock.
