Abstract
Abstract A flue-stream reactor for gasifying fossil fuels which contain ballast. The reactor comprises two cylindrical, cooled, and insulated reaction chambers which are disposed one after the other in the axial direction. The first reaction chamber is provided with an axial inlet for accommodating a gasification burner. The second reaction chamber is provided with an opening for the addition of gasification material. A cooled, coaxial channel provides communication between the two reaction chambers. The reactor further includes a radial discharge and a device for removing liquid and solid ash and slag. As viewed in the axial direction of flow, the first reaction chamber includes a cooled deflection hood ahead of the inlet of the connecting channel, thereafter a cooled, annular, trough-like device which is intended for collecting liquid ash and slag, is disposed on the wall of the chamber, and is provided with a discharge, and thereunder a water bath which is disposed between the connecting channel and the wall of the chamber; the second reaction chamber is provided ahead of the outlet with a cooled deflection hood which is furthermore disposed above the funnel-shaped discharge for the solid ash and slag.

A flue-stream reactor for gasifying fossil fuels which contain ballast, said reactor comprising: a first cylindrical, cooled, and insulated reaction chamber, which includes an axial inlet for accommodating a gasification burner; a second cylindrical, cooled, and insulated reaction chamber, which includes an inlet for the addition of gasification material; said second reaction chamber further including a radial outlet disposed transverse to the axial direction of said second chamber, and a funnel-shaped discharge for solid ash and slag; said first and second reaction chambers being disposed one after the other in the axial direction thereof; a cooled channel which is coaxial with, interconnects, and provides communication between said first and second reaction chambers; as viewed in the axial direction of flow, said connecting channel has an inlet which communicates with said first chamber, and an outlet which communicates with said second chamber; said burner in said axial inlet of said first chamber being located at that end thereof remote from said inlet of said connecting channel, and said funnel-shaped discharge of said second chamber being located at that end thereof remote from said outlet of said connecting channel; a cooled deflection hood located in said first reaction chamber ahead of said inlet of said connecting channel when viewed in the axial direction of flow; a cooled, annular, trough-like device for collecting liquid ash and slag, said trough-like device being provided with a discharge opening, and being disposed on the inner wall of said first reaction chamber after said inlet of said connecting channel when viewed in the axial direction of flow; a water bath disposed between said connecting channel and the inner wall of said first reaction chamber after said trough-like device when viewed in the axial direction of flow; and a cooled second deflection hood located in said second reaction chamber ahead of said radial outlet and said funnel-shaped discharge when viewed in the axial direction of flow.
