METHODS AND APPARATUS TO FACILITATE COOLING SYNGAS INSIDE A GASIFIER

摘要

A method of cooling syngas in a gasifier (200) is provided. The method includes channeling cooling fluid (308) through at least one platen (320) that extends at least partially through a reaction zone (228) of the gasifier, and circulating reactant fluid around the at least one platen to facilitate heat transfer from the reactant fluid to the cooling fluid.
