Improved quenching of pyrolytically cracked gas is effected by separating the hydrocarbon-water emulsion produced in a quenching zone having a plurality of stages and then transferring the emulsion to the initial stage of the quenching zone wherein incoming gases vaporize the water from the emulsion. Also, transferring a slurry containing particulate carbon, e.g., produced in the Wulff process by scrubbing the exhaust gases of the generation step, to the initial stage of the quenching zone and recovery of hydrocarbon and particulate carbon is taught.
