dc.description.abstract	Actualmente muchas investigaciones se enfocan en la búsqueda de nuevas fuentes de energía renovable para suplir la creciente demanda energética y para disminuir el uso de combustibles fósiles, principalmente por el impacto ambiental de los gases de efecto invernadero que los mismos emiten. Una fuente de energía renovable es la biomasa lignocelulósica, producto de las podas urbanas. En Bogotá se producen cerca de 488 toneladas de madera residual al mes, fruto de las podas que se llevan a cabo en las zonas urbanas, lo cual representa un contenido energético de cerca de 86×1012 J e implica un potencial importante para la generación de energía eléctrica. Dicho potencial podría incrementarse si se suma la biomasa generada por el retamo espinoso (Ulex europaeus), una especie invasora, de difícil control, que afecta el ecosistema y que se caracteriza por su alto contenido energético. Sin embargo, en la actualidad los residuos de poda se disponen en el relleno sanitario Doña Juana y el retamo espinoso se elimina mediante incineración. De esta manera, el contenido energético de estos recursos está siendo desaprovechado. Existen diversas tecnologías de tipo químico, biológico y termoquímico para la transformación de la biomasa. Dentro de los procesos termoquímicos se encuentra la gasificación, proceso en el que se obtiene un gas de síntesis que puede utilizarse para generación eléctrica empleando un motor de combustión interna acoplado a un generador. Este proceso termoquímico se caracteriza porque la cantidad de gases efecto invernadero emitidos al ambiente son considerablemente menores a los gases emitidos por otras tecnologías, como las de combustión. Por lo anterior, en esta investigación se busca determinar el potencial técnico de los residuos de poda y retamo espinoso generados en Bogotá para la generación de energía eléctrica mediante su gasificación en un reactor de lecho fijo y flujo descendente.	es_CO
