Partial oxidation process with second stage addition of iron containing additive
Abstract
This patent describes a continuous process for the production of desulfurized synthesis gas, fuel gas, or reducing gas comprising: (1) reacting a first portion of sulfur-containing heavy liquid hydrocarbonaceous fuel and/or sulfur-containing solid carbonaceous fuel by partial oxidation with a free-oxygen containing gas and in the presence of a temperature moderator in a first free-flow refractory lined reaction zone of a gas generator at an autogenous temperature in the range of about 1900F, to 2900F, and a pressure in the range of about 2 to 250 atmospheres to produce a hot stream of synthesis gas, reducing gas, or fuel gas comprising H/sub 2/, C, CO/sub 2/, H/sub 2/S, COS and at least one gaseous material selected from the group consisting of H/sub 2/O, N/sub 2/, CH/sub 4/, NH/sub 3/, A, and containing entrained material comprising particulate carbon, unreacted fuel if any, and slag; (2) passing at least a portion of the hot gas stream from 91) in admixture with a second portion of the fuel and an iron-containing additive through a second unobstructed free-flow refractory lined reaction zone wherein sufficient iron-containing additive is introduced into the second reaction zone so as to provide iron atoms in the amount of aboutmore »
