Process of manufacturing carburetted water gas
This patent involves a processes for manufacturing carburetted water gas, in which a known cycle of operations consists in first upwardly blasting the fuel bed in the generator with air admitted at the bottom of the generator and burning the blow gases in the carbureting apparatus with air admitted. It will then effect steam run upwardly through the fuel bed with steam admitted at the bottom of the generator and simultaneously sprayed with heavy oil on the top of the fuel bed. It continues by passing the resultant gaseous products through the carbureting apparatus, and then effecting a stream, the improvements which consist in using soft fuel as a preponderant percent of the generator fuel, and periodically charging fresh fuel into the top of the generator. This will result in effecting the following steps before the blasting phase of the subsequent cycles: admitting a small amount of steam to the bottom of the generator and overblasting the fuel bed with air admitted to the generator adjacently above the fuel bed to burn in the top of the generator the blue water gas and the coal gas thus generated therein, thus creating additional heat in the top of the generator and insuring the carbonizing of the soft fuel charged into it.
