  • Patent number: 7960441
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for reprocessing of the combustion products, carbon dioxide and water, to generate renewable synthetic fuels and motor fuels by means of electrical energy, involving, according to the invention, mixing hydrogen, produced from water, preferably water vapor, by electrolysis, and carbon dioxide up to a molar ratio of 1 to 3.5 to obtain a carbon dioxide-hydrogen mixture, pre-heating said mixture in a high temperature recuperator and then heating it to 800 to 5,000° C.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 28, 2007
    Date of Patent: June 14, 2011

  • Patent number: 7776114
    Abstract: A process for the endothermic gasification of solid carbon in an entrained bed facility comprises partial oxidation of fuel(s) and endothermic gasification of solid carbon, preferably preceded by low temperature carbonization such that the carbonization gas is passed to the partial oxidation and the carbonization coke is passed to the endothermic gasification. The hot gas streaming downwardly from the combustion chamber is deflected to produce separation of the liquid slag and is then passed to the endothermic gasification that operates with a rising gas stream and with addition of solid carbon having a grain diameter of up to 20 mm. The speed of the gas at the carbon inlet is higher than, and the speed of the gas at the end of the endothermic gasification is lower than, the suspension rate of the reactive carbon particles, to produce an increase of the relative speed difference between the gas and the carbon particles. Apparatus is also disclosed for carrying out the process.
