Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A gasification system includes a water source, a downstream system configured to receive a first stream having water from the water source, and a carbon a carbon dioxide injector configured to adjust a pH of the water using a second stream having carbon dioxide to form pH-adjusted water.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A gasification system, comprising: a gasifier configured to convert a fuel and oxygen into syngas, wherein the gasifier comprises a quench chamber configured to reduce impurities within the syngas using water to produce black water; a black water system configured to receive the black water from the quench chamber and to generate grey water and soot; and a carbon dioxide injector fluidly coupled to a carbon dioxide source and configured to adjust a…
