Abstract: With a device for removal of fine-grained or dust-like solids from a container that is to be pressurized or is pressurized, whereby the container is equipped with a double-walled discharge cone or funnel, a solution is supposed to be created with which the use of porous materials, such as sintered metals or the like, in particular, is avoided, while making available good conveyance properties in the transfer funnel, without restricting the grain sizes of the material, in each instance, whereby even particle-charged gas can be used for conveyance. This is achieved in that the gas exit openings are larger than the largest particles of the solid to be removed, and that the gas exit openings (4) are provided with a pipe connector or gas feed channel (4a) that projects into the interior of the ring chamber (6) and has at least one angle with an imaginary horizontal plane, and that the gas feed channel (4a) is part of a retention device (12) for preventing solid from trickling into the ring chamber (6).

Abstract: A method and a system for uniformization and regulation of the solid fuels pneumatically conveyed using dense-stream conveying, into a gasifier for the production of synthesis gas, is supposed to be configured in such a manner that clearly homogenized feed of the coal to the burner is made possible, whereby the short-term fluctuations are minimized and thus the gasification quality is improved, and regulation of the amounts of coal to the burner is structured to be more effective. This is achieved in that the fine-grain to dust-type fuel is first conveyed out of a feed container positioned below the burner level, to a level above the burner level, and subsequently homogenized in a line that is directed downward toward the burner.

This is achieved in that filter elements are positioned in the dust precipitator, which elements are back-flushed by means of a gas that contains carbon dioxide or pure CO2 gas.

Abstract: With a method and a system for interruption-free fuel supply to a gasification system for the production of crude synthesis gas, whereby the fuel is passed from a fuel reservoir to a grinding/drying system, subsequently the resulting fuel dust is passed to a fuel storage container, from there to a dust feed container, and finally, to the gasifier, by way of transport means, the system availability is supposed to be increased, and, at the same time, the storage capacities are supposed to be minimized, in order to thereby particularly achieve a cost reduction. This is achieved in that the fuel in the form of dust is passed to the storage container from at least two grinding/drying systems, by way of transport means, whereby at least one of the transport means, as a dust transport device, is acted on by at least two grinding/drying systems.

Abstract: An apparatus for the degassing of a dust from a synthesis gas produced by a gasification process, is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a main dust separator, a multi-purpose vessel, fluid for degassing and cooling and a storage facility for dust. The synthesis gas produced is conducted via a connecting pipe to a main dust separator, from which a de-dusted raw synthesis gas stream and a dust-like solid which also contains raw synthesis gas in the voids between the dust particles can be removed. The dust-like solid is directed into a multi-purpose vessel equipped with devices for reducing the pressure level so that a tail gas is obtained and a solid containing lower gas quantities in the void fraction remains. There is a device for transporting a solid into a gas exchange apparatus, the latter comprising a gas exchange tank, a dust separator and a feed device for exchange gas. It is possible to reduce the gas exchange tank to atmospheric pressure.

Abstract: A facility for the continuous supply of a coal gasification plant with finely ground fuel material is disclosed. The fuel is first stored in a storage tank and then fed to a lock hopper system, where it is supplied with gas for the coal gasification reaction. The lock hopper system consists of at least two lock hoppers to achieve that the gas is injected quasi-continuously, and the fuel is then passed to a feed tank in which a constant filling level prevails over a given period of time, so that the fuel is conveyed in a constant, smooth and pressurised flow from this feed tank to the burners. The transfer from at least two lock hoppers to a least one feed tank is carried out by pneumatic dense-flow conveying at solid material densities of at least 100 kg/m3 and a differential pressure of at least 0.5 bar so that it is possible to arrange the facility components at the same geodetic height or different geodetic heights so as to achieve a space saving and flexible plant construction.
