More Information
Summary:A synthetic or fuel gas mixture containing hydrogen and carbon monoxide is made by the partial oxidation in a free-flowing hollow reactor of a slurry of solid carbonaceous fuel in a liquid carrier admixed with a gas containing free oxygen using a nozzle in which an annular slurry stream is enveloped between central and annular streams of high velocity gas. A uniform atomized admixture of solids, liquids and gases is formed by impinging the annular slurry stream on a downstream nozzle diffuser, and then transported through an exit orifice at an accelerated velocity to further atomize the admixture. The nozzle preferably has a slurry passageway (32) formed of two elongate segments (32a, 32b), the upstream segment (32a) being of greater cross-sectional area than the downstream segment (32b). The nozzle also is of general use in mixing a slurry with a gas.
