Method for supplying an entrained-flow gasification reactor with carbonaceous fuels

摘要

With a method for supplying an entrained-flow gasification reactor with carbonaceous fuel for the production of a gas that contains CO and H2 and flue ash under pressure and at a temperature above the melting point of the ash, wherein the resulting gas is passed to further treatment stages, particularly at least one synthesis stage, the waste gas that is derived from the subsequent treatment stage and still contains hydrocarbons and/or hydrogen is used for pneumatic conveying of the fuel into the entrained-flow gasification reactor.

1. A method for supplying an entrained-flow gasification reactor with carbonaceous fuel for producing a gas that contains CO, H2, and flue ash under pressure and at a temperature above the melting point of the ash, the method comprising steps of:
providing an entrained-flow gasification reactor; supplying the entrained-flow gasification reactor with carbonaceous fuel; producing via the entrained-flow gasification reactor and the carbonaceous fuel in the entrained-flow gasification reactor the gas that contains CO, H2, and flue ash; subjecting the gas to a plurality of treatment stages to form a waste gas; mixing the waste gas with CO2 to form a mixed gas; compressing the mixed gas to form a recirculation gas; and conveying the carbonaceous fuel pneumatically into the entrained-flow gasification reactor using the recirculation gas; wherein said plurality of treatment stages comprises at least one synthesis stage, a CO conversion stage, a gas purification stage, a first synthesis stage, and a second synthesis stage; and wherein the recirculation gas contains at least 1 vol.-% of hydrocarbons and/or 1 vol.-% of hydrogen.
