Method of generating gas

Patent ·
OSTI ID:6719400
This patent describes a method of producing carburetted water gas by air blasting from the bottom of an ignited fuel bed contained in a generator. The process involves taking off the resulting blast gas from a point intermediate the ends of the fuel bed, then blasting the fuel for a short period with preheated air from said intermediate point upwardly. In continues by then shutting off the blast and admitting steam at the bottom of the fuel bed and simultaneously admitting carburetting material intermediate the ends of the fuel bed.
