*4.1.2 Project scope*

The project scope is to use the Six Sigma DMAIC methodology to find two optimal process conditions (1) RDF/Wood Blending and (2) Equivalence Ratio by running co-gasification experiments at 785°C and atmospheric pressure, using different RDF/ Wood blending and different Equivalence Ratio, and parallelly look for improvements in the co-gasification process of the pilot-scale bubbling fluidized bed reactor of the University of Aveiro to reduce variance in the syngas composition and COPO for future studies.

## *4.1.3 Project goals*

	- Propose an integrated Six Sigma DMAIC framework for continuous incremental improvement and co-gasification optimization, enhancing overall efficiency.

#### *4.1.4 SIPOC (supplier, input, process, output, customer)*

It is a tool that summarizes the inputs and outputs of one or more processes in table form (see **Figure 5**).
