Abstract:
The present disclosure provides an apparatus for production of syngas. In the  apparatus, the spinning flow will be creating an entirely different velocity and flow profile inside the reactor which is further helping for good heat distribution,  optimum heat utilization as well as gas mixing. This will reduce the coke formation issues due to cracking and hydrogenation reactions. Further, favourable heat  distribution may be helpful to avoid catalyst sintering and/or its deactivation due to sintering. Boudouard reaction may further create a lot of deactivation issues due to  the carbon formation. As the reaction is exothermic, coke formation is favoured in the apparatus 100 where temperature is in the range of 500-700 degree Celsius. In  order to avoid the problem, a temperature quenching zone is provided within the apparatus 100 where direct water is quenched into the apparatus 100, thereby allowing  for sudden temperature drop as well as coke gasification.
