The use and conversion of biomass for energy offers great potential for sustainably meeting the world's growing energy needs. Various processes make it possible to produce energy carriers in different physical states. In particular, the controlled gasification of biomass provides a good starting point for producing gaseous or liquid energy carriers from synthesis gas. Since the raw gas produced during gasification must first be purified and conditioned, it is necessary at various points in the process chain to measure and verify the composition and quality of the gas stream. In this context, the tar content plays a particularly decisive role, as it must be critically evaluated from both a plant and a process perspective. This thesis begins by discussing the theoretical foundations of the thermochemical conversion of biomass and various methods for measuring the tar content in gas streams. This is followed by a documentation of the design and construction of an automated sampling system. The thesis concludes with a summary and an outlook regarding the gasification of biomass.
