<p>The present invention is a method for removing particulate matter and aerosols from a gas stream generated by gasification prior to the gas stream being used as fuel in an internal combustion device or as synthesis gas for subsequent processing. The present invention consists of first cooling the gas stream, then oil scrubbing it to further cool it and to remove particulates and some tars, and finally passing the gas stream through one or more vortex chambers (28) to remove additional tars. Each vortex chamber (28) employs a high-speed fan (46) that forces the tar droplets against the interior wall (50) of the vortex chamber (28) where the tar coalesces and is removed.</p> |
