APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR QUENCHING A HOT GAS.

摘要

A vessel for quenching gases having a temperature in excess of 1100C by contact with an aqueous corrosive liquid (30) comprising: an upper vessel wall portion (22) lined with a hot face material capable of withstanding hot dry gas at temperatures in excess of 1100C; a lower vessel wall portion (35) in contact with an aqueous corrosive liquid (30); and a membrane wall portion (21) located within a vessel wall (35) proximate an anticipated liquid/gas interface level, the membrane wall having internal channels (26) for circulating a cooling fluid.
