Abstract. Gaseous fuels obtained from renewable row products, beside natural gas, can be considered in principle as valuable energents due to its economic production and environmental protection. In this paper, our experiences in using once upon a time very frequently used and nowadays almost forgotten gas obtained by gasification of wood, are presented. Gasgenerator is built in tractor with engine adapted for spark ignition operation. The obtained power of engine is 30% lower comparing to the case of engine drive by diesel fuel. The presented paper is the result of our investigations carried out at Institut für Agrartechnik Universität Hohenheim  - Stuttgart in the frames of an scientific project.

TRAKTOR SA POGONOM NA GAS DOBIJEN GASIFIKACIJOM DRVETA Gasovita goriva dobijena iz obnovljivih sirovina, pored zemnog gasa, mogu se smatrati u principu vrednim energentom s obzirom na njihovu ekonomičnost i uticaj na okolinu. Ovim radom će biti prikazana naša iskustva u korišćenju nekada čestog a danas skoro zaboravljenog gasa, dobijenog gasifikacijom drveta. Gasogenerator je ugradjen na traktor, kome je motor preradjen za rad sa varničnim paljenjem goriva. Dobijena snaga motora je oko 30% niža od snage klasičnog motora sa pogonom na dizel gorivo. Prezentirani rad je rezulatat naših ispitivanja na Institutu za agrarnu tehniku Univerziteta Hoenhajm u Štutgartu realizovanih u okviru jednog istraživačkog projekta.
