Problems solved by technology

Unfortunately, known heat exchangers do not work well in hydrothermal gasification and / or liquefaction processes due to the harsh requirements of the process conditions and the heterogeneous properties of biomass
[0009] A serious problem with conventional tube heat exchangers is the high pressure on both sides of the tubes, i.e. the material flow inside the tubes and the heat exchange medium outside the tubes must be pressurized to high pressure (for example, 221bar) to obtain a sufficiently high temperature
This causes solid or highly viscous fluids such as tar and char to accumulate on the surfaces of the flow channels of the heat exchanger, resulting in increased resistance to flow and blockage of said channels

Embodiment Construction

[0023] figure 1 is a schematic diagram showing the system and method of the present invention in the form of a flowchart.

[0024] First, biomass optionally mixed with additives and / or catalysts is pressurized to a predetermined pressure (for example in the range of 150-400 bar) by a pressurization device 1 and fed to a reactor system 2 . exist figure 1 The pressurizing device 1 shown in includes a pump. Pressurization to the desired pressure can be achieved in one step, eg by one pump, or can be achieved stepwise, eg by several pumps connected in series.

[0025] In another embodiment of the invention, there are two or even more biomass, additive and / or catalyst streams, which are fed to the reactor system 2 separately. The streams are mixed in the reactor system 2 and form a reaction mixture.

[0026] Biomass typically contains at least 70% by weight (weight percent) water. The water may preferably be predominantly moisture, ie water already present in the biomass. Mix...

Abstract

Disclosed are a method, a system and use for heat exchange in super-critical or near-critical water gasification process of biomass. The method comprises the steps of: heating a biomass in a first heat exchanger (6) by thermal energy of a heat transfer medium, reacting the biomass in said super-critical or near-critical water gasification process and producing reaction products, cooling the reaction products of the biomass in a second heat exchanger (12) by absorbing the thermal energy of the reaction products to said heat transfer medium, and circulating said heat transfer medium between the first heat exchanger (6) and the second heat exchanger (12), wherein molten salt is used as the heat transfer medium.
