Plasco Energy uses plasma arc with a metered amount air for pyrolization
thus maintaining a higher gas cracking temp.
does this help?

Rolph.
Is there any information regarding the effect of passing "red hot exhaust
gas" in combination with steam through the reaction zone? This may sound
like a stupid question, with CO 2 having the reputation of being an
effective fire suppressant.
Such is the reaction within the presence of steam,and the oxidization of
cabon.CO2 will undergo a change, producing quality methane if the
reaction is favorable.
Such a reaction might not need very much additional air for pyrolises
which should be sustained by the release of oxygen from the cracking
process, thus reducing the nitrogen content of the gas produced. improving
quality.
I am thinking of simulating this reaction using "furnace coke" or
charcoal, oxygen, nitrogen, steam, compressed air and scrap engine oil.
inside a reaction chamber. I just need to get a handle on the quantities
of these components to obtain the desired product. I have the metering
system for the oil (fuel), and water (steam),and a few flow meters to
control the gasses involved etc. The book mentioned in my last Email gave
the quantity and BTU content of the gas obtained from various fuels
including wood products.

If so, additional heat needs to be applied to this area in order to

the "water trapped within the fuel" in to super heated steam, just before

around it."
Yes , very much so! This is how Jim set up the GEK and it could even be
mproved.
ess energy to be provided by the oxidation process means less air/less
itrogen in the process. It means a " richer poor gas"
happy new year, btw
