Abstract: The invention relates to a device and method for treating a hot gas flow containing slag and to an entrained-bed gasifier system that comprises the device. The device comprises, in a housing, an inlet arranged at the top for the hot gas flow, an immersion pipe, which is arranged vertically and concentrically in the housing and into which the inlet opens, a coolant bath, into which a lower section of the immersion pipe is immersed, and at least one raw gas outlet opening for cooled raw gas that has been freed of slag. The lower section of the immersion pipe is designed as a radially expanded gas distributor bell in the coolant bath. Said gas distributor bell is formed by a substantially conical jacket surface having a cross-section that expands downward, wherein the jacket surface has a plurality of gas passage openings, which are distributed over the circumference of the gas distributor bell. The dimensions of the gas passage openings increase with the immersion depth in the coolant bath.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for generating a synthesis gas (SG) from biomass (BM) by entrained-flow gasification. The device comprises a treatment plant (1), in which the biomass (BM) is supplied to a coarse crushing device (2), which is connected downstream via a first lock (3) to a pressurized carbonization plant (4) for the hydrothermal generation of carbonization char (KK) from the biomass (BM). The carbonization plant (4) comprises at least one preheating device (5) and a carbonization reactor (6) arranged downstream of the preheating device (5) and is connected downstream via a second lock (11) to at least one solid-liquid separation device (12, 13) for providing a fuel. A drying device (16) for drying the fuel is provided downstream of the solid-liquid separation device (12, 13), with a crushing device (18) for crushing the fuel to form pulverized fuel (BS) having particle sizes in the range of 55 ?m to 500 ?m being connected downstream of the drying device.

Abstract: During required change-over to a holding operation in a Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, the reactor is not depressurized after cutting off the supply of fresh synthesis gas to the Fischer-Tropsch reactor, and the temperature is not reduced to below the temperature below which a Fischer-Tropsch reaction no longer takes place. Instead, the reactor is charged with an inert gas, e.g., kept in a vessel at a pressure higher than the operating pressure of the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, until the reacting components have been flushed out from the Fischer-Tropsch system. While maintaining the pressure and the temperature, the reactor is thus merely inerted for a few seconds, sufficient to interrupt the Fischer-Tropsch reaction. Catalyst damage is avoided, and the liquid phase situation on the catalyst is at least essentially unchanged, facilitating subsequent re-commissioning of the catalyst.
