Process of making producer gas

Patent ·
OSTI ID:7205003
This patent describes a process of making producer gas by passing air through an ignited bed of solid fuel to heat the same to incandescence and then passing oil and air into and through said incandescent bed in a downward direction. Then it involves disassociating the oil into gases and heavy hydrocarbons and then converts the heavy hydrocarbons into gases and solid carbons. The latter combines with the air to maintain the proper temperature and assist in forming the producer gas in the usual manner, substantially as described.
