Adjustment of the Gasification Reactor Technology

Abstract

In this thesis, gasification and its principles are briefly introduced together with chemical reactions as well as different ways of gasification in terms of reactor types, in the research part of the work. The principal part of the thesis deals with heat issue of the bottom part of reactor of Energy Research Centre in Ostrava. In order to solve this issue, cooling apparatus design is proposed and calculated from many technological and safety aspects. The cooling water is then supposed to be utilised in form of hot steam, which might enhance the gasification process, if injected into the reactor. Thus, steam boiler and piping are proposed as well in this thesis. Such proposal solves technological problem and at the same time brings new possibilities on field of science of Energetic Research Centre in Ostrava.
