Process of producing fuel gas and fluidized bed reactor for carrying out the process

Abstract From the Canadian patent

Fine-grained to coarse-grained or fibrous fuels of organic origin are processed with omnidirectional relative movements of fuel particles and gasifying agent particles and with subsequent formation of a combustible mixture from the fuel gas product and oxygen, followed by a combustion of the mixture in a prime mover. The fuel is gasified in a fluidized bed under such conditions that the fuel gas product is entirely or substantially free from contents of heavy hydrocarbons hydrocarbon, compounds, substances which form tarlike condensates when cooled below their dew point temperature, as well as phenols and phenol compounds. These conditions can be adjusted by any person skilled in the art in …
