1. You want to adapt a biomass gasifier to coal gasifier?
2. If you have high ash coal, you know the components of these ashes, as many inorganic can catalyze your reaction and behave in a better way. 3. What is the calorific value of your coal, will be the subbitominosos type.
4. Do you know which is the melting point of your ashes?

..can this be modified to fit e.g. a 1 - 2 meter tall "battery
of Imberts" inside your current reactor vessel?  I haven't made
up my mind on the ideal sizes for my gasifier and I have a few
ideas I'd like to try out.

..regardless of sizes,  the hot section of my gasifier is going
to be about 1 to 2 meters tall, and I'd like to consentrate on
that rather on the other junk I need to test my ideas.

..in my gasifier (75kWe-300kWth "V-hearth Imbert" with tar vapor
flare on top of the combustion zone "lens") I simply draw my tar
vapors off my fuel hopper that sits on top of my combustion zone
"lens", pipe it and some air straight down into my flare and use
the combustion zone "lens" to ignite and burn my tar vapors, this
also agitates and stabilizes the Imbert combustion zone "lens."

..for updraft, this becomes a little harder, as you have tar vapors
"all over" your gas, and not just in your fuel hopper.

>So in this sense, tar generated after gas cooling be recycled into
>gasifier?
..your tar vapors generated in your gasifier and then
condensed into tar droplets when you cool your gas.

..with your upstream gasifier, you have to clean your
entire product gas stream, how much does that cost?

..with my setup, I keep my tar vapors away from my product gas,
instead I use them to heat, agitate and stabilize my "Imbert"
combustion zone, and then to fuel it, around 2/3 to 4/5 of it.
