The present invention pertains to a synthesis gas heat exchanger unit with one synthesis gas radiant cooler (1), two synthesis gas convection coolers (23), one crude gas-clean gas heat exchanger (4), one crude gas-inert gas heat exchanger (5), and one dust separator (11). These devices are preferably arranged vertically or slopingly. The crude gas heat exchangers (4, 5, 23) are designed as single-flue, double-flue or multiple-flue heat exchangers. They are elastically supported via claws (10) and are equipped with an electric heater (9). A soot blower system (13) is associated with each flue (4.1, 4.2) as well as (5.1, 5.2) and right hand flue and left hand flue (23.1, 23.2) at the crude gas inlet. Soot blowers (31) are likewise provided on the connection lines (2, 6), and mass flow controllers (7) are provided in the lower connection lines (6).

Synthesis gas heat exchanger unit

A synthesis gas generator with a combustion chamber and quench chamber for generating, cooling and cleaning gases, which are generated by partial oxidation in the combustion chamber of the synthesis gas generator. The combustion chamber (3) and the quench chamber (7) are separate chambers connected by a flow channel (6). Nozzle assemblies (10, 11) with nozzle heads (9, 34), which spray in a quenching medium (8), are arranged in the gas inlet area of the quench chamber (7). The quench zone within the quench chamber (7) is joined by a useful gas-quenching medium-mixing zone. A cone (20) is located at the outlet of the quench chamber. This cone is followed by a water bath (21). The useful gas leaves the synthesis gas generator after deflection by 180.degree. in the rear-side area of the cone (20) via gas outlet openings (23).

Synthesis gas generator with combustion and quench chambers

A heat-insulating lining on heat exchanger surfaces for reducing the heat flow at the cooling surfaces of a medium- or high-pressure heat exchanger, which comprises a tube-web-tube wall. Corrosion resistant fastening pins are arranged in a weld area on the webs of the cooling surface. A ceramic fiber material is arranged as a heatinsulating material on both sides of the webs up to the level of the outside of the tubes of the tube wall, and segments of a ceramic moleskin mat, which are held by fastening pins and fastening washers, are arranged above it on both sides. An expanded metal, which is protected by a refractory material with good corrosion resistance, is additionally arranged at one or both edge zones and at the locations of the joints of the moleskin mat segments.
