METHOD FOR CONVERTING THE RDF FRACTION INTO A SYNTHESIS GAS
The present invention relates to a method for producing a synthesis gas from municipal solid waste (MSW) and, more particularly, from the fraction thereof called refuse-derived fuel (RDF). The method comprises a step of gasification on a bubbling fluidized bed at atmospheric pressure and temperature...

Summary: | The present invention relates to a method for producing a synthesis gas from municipal solid waste (MSW) and, more particularly, from the fraction thereof called refuse-derived fuel (RDF). The method comprises a step of gasification on a bubbling fluidized bed at atmospheric pressure and temperatures in the range of 750°C a 850°C, using oxygen-enriched air as a gasifying agent, and a step of immediate cleaning and conditioning of the synthesis gas, mainly based on the use of a catalytic reforming reactor comprising a bed formed by a metal catalyst, which operates at a temperature between 750°C and 850°C, where the endothermic reforming process is carried out with water vapor from tars and other hydrocarbons. |
