Abstract:
The invention relates to a method and a device of thermochemical conversion of municipal solid waste and other carbon-rich feedstock with high content of tars into synthesis gas. Conversion occurs in a two-stage process of pyrolysis (zones 1-3, 7) and subsequent updraft gasification (zones 4-6, 8-10) of fluidized bed of carbonaceous feedstock residue in a slow air-and-gas flow. Zones 1-3 are zones of low- temperature processing of feedstock and located in the pyrolysis part of device. Zones 4-10 are zones of high-temperature processing of feedstock and located in the gasification part of device. The pyrolysis part of device consists of feedstock loading device (1), rotary kiln of indirect heating (2), device for discharging dust gas residue (3). The gasification part of device consists of gasifier (5), a unit for feeding carbonaceous feedstock residue in gasifier (4) and a unit for unloading of the slag (6). The invention also use synthesis gas in the ways presented herein.
