Hi Jeff and All,

                Yes as I've been saying for yrs now here, cracking tars into 
H2-CO should be a no brainer.   I'd suggest running them through a long SS 
coiled tube on the burning chamber sides as an example heated to 1500f with 
pulled apart SS dish scrubbies inside which should crack about anything into 
syn gas thus cleaning it up, increasing quality and reducing fouling. 

              The heat can be recycled into the gasification section input air 
or biomass destructively distilling it. Many steel, other plants use these 
methods to get carbon/coke from biomass or coal and power their operations.

             Some use the tars to make water gas, making coke/charcoal then 
hitting the hot charcoal with hot steam, making syngas/H2-CO.

               Another could be a fluidized bed reactor using nickel/SS 
turnings, bits, etc.

              Many ways to skin that cat. My old Mark's Manual, an old 
engineers manual that can be found used,  shows multiple ways to get syngas 
which use to be used as a fuel gas for towns, etc.
