  • Patent number: 5425850
    Abstract: A black liquor gasification system intended for use as a replacement for a Tomlinson cycle, Chemical Recovery Unit, and which operates at a temperature below the ash melting temperature thereby removing the potential for smelt-water reactions and explosions. The subject black liquor gasification system is based on the use of a circulating fluidized bed operating at atmospheric pressure that produces dry, recoverable salts as well as low calorific gases to be used within the paper-making process.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 8, 1993
    Date of Patent: June 20, 1995
    Assignee: Combustion Engineering, Inc.
    Inventors: Michael C. Tanca, Erik G. A. Dahlquist, Sune Flink
