Abstract: A system and method of producing syngas is provided. The system includes a low tar gasification generator that receives at least a first and second feedstock stream, such as a solid waste stream. The first and second feedstock streams are mixed and gasified to produce a first gas stream. An operating parameter is measured and a ratio of the first and second feedstock streams is changed in response to the measurement.

Abstract: A system and method of producing syngas from a solid waste stream is provided. The system includes a low tar gasification generator that gasifies the solid waste stream to produce a first gas stream. A process module cools the first gas stream and removes contaminants, such as metals, sulfur and carbon dioxide from the first gas stream to produce a second gas stream having hydrogen. The second gas stream is received by a power module that generates electrical power from the second gas stream. The process module may include one or more heat exchangers.

Abstract: A system and method of producing electrical power from a solid waste stream is provided. The system includes a low tar gasification generator that receives a feedstock stream, such as a solid waste stream. The feedstock stream is gasified to produce a first gas stream that includes hydrogen, at least one contaminant and at least one diluent. At least one clean-up process is performed on the first gas stream to remove the at least one contaminant and generate a second gas stream. Electrical power is generated by a solid oxide fuel cell in response to receiving the second gas stream. The solid oxide fuel cell outputting an anode exhaust gas stream. A portion of the anode exhaust gas is vented to reduce the level of diluent in the second gas stream.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for injecting oxygen into a fuel cell reformate stream to reduce the level of carbon monoxide while preserving the level of hydrogen in a fuel cell system.

Abstract: Minimum and maximum fuel delivery of a mechanical diesel engine fuel injector is limited by the use of a single actuator which provides for a minimum fuel limit or maximum fuel limit in accord with a predetermined schedule. A failsafe mode of operation of the engine is provided in the event of a failure of the actuator.
