Abstract: A pump used in a gasification system, the pump comprises a housing having an inlet and an outlet, a rotor supported within the housing for rotation relative to the housing, the rotor comprising a hub, a plurality of disks spaced apart by sections of the hub, and defining a plurality of transport channels for transporting solid carbonaceous feedstocks for the gasification system, and an interior feedstock facing surface adjacent to the solid carbonaceous feedstocks, wherein at least a portion of the interior feedstock facing surface is coated with a coating.

Abstract: The present application provides a scrubber for a gasification system. The scrubber may include a column, an inlet for a flow of dirty syngas, an inlet diffuser system positioned about the inlet, and an outlet for a flow of cleaned syngas.

Abstract: In certain embodiments, a system includes a first water supply pump configured to pump water from a gas scrubber sump of a gas scrubber directly to a quench chamber sump of a quench chamber via a first water supply line.

Abstract: A gasifier includes a combustion chamber in which a combustible fuel is burned to produce a syngas and a particulated solid residue. A cooling chamber having a liquid coolant is disposed downstream of the combustion chamber. A dip tube is disposed coupling the combustion chamber to the cooling chamber. The syngas is directed from the combustion chamber to the cooling chamber via the dip tube to contact the liquid coolant and produce a cooled syngas. An asymmetric or symmetric liquid separator is disposed proximate to an exit path of the cooling chamber and configured to remove entrained liquid content from the cooled syngas directed through the annular passage to the exit path.

Abstract: A tower having a plurality of axial sections is provided. The tower includes at least one lower axial section having a non-circular cross-section in at least a portion thereof. The lower axial section is located near a bottom of the tower. At least one upper axial section has a substantially circular cross-section in at least a portion thereof, and is located near a top of the tower. The tower has a cross-sectional profile that transitions from the non-circular cross-section to the substantially circular cross-section, and an outer diameter of the tower is less than a designated maximum diameter.

Abstract: A gas turbine assembly includes a shroud that includes a plurality of interconnected shroud segments, wherein each one of the shroud segments comprises an arcuate base formed of a first metal material. The arcuate base is made up of an annular member having an axial component and a pair of upstanding ribs having flanges, wherein the arcuate base further comprises a high temperature capable material layer disposed on a surface of the arcuate base so as to define an inner diameter of the shroud segment (i.e., the hot gas path side or environmental side).
