Process for the production of synthesis gas by partial oxidation of heavy loads, such as heavy crude oils and distillation residues.

摘要

Process for the production of synthesis gas from heavy charges comprising a partial oxidation of heavy charges with oxygen or oxygen-enriched air in the presence of vapor carried out at temperatures above 1000 ° C and equal to or higher pressures 20 atm (20 bar) and subsequent cooling of the synthesis gas obtained by direct injection of water into the gas itself, followed by removal of water by means of an adduction pipe surrounded by an open concentric tube in both ends, so as to form a ring through which can raise the water and the cooled gas, characterized in that the distance (L) between the lower end of the adduction pipe and the lower end of the open concentric tube must be equal or higher x times the diameter (D) of said lower end of said adduction pipe, wherein x varies in relation to the flow (F) of the mass of gas specific, ex presada in kg / h / cm2, according to the equation x = 0, 026 F + 0, 15. - - - (In the above mentioned fascicle are versions in German and French, respective-ly, the same claims have translated from the English version). - - -
