Abstract:
     A gasification reactor which includes a shell, having a combustion chamber in which a carbonaceous fuel mix is burned to produce a hot gaseous effluent. A quench chamber within the shell includes a water bath in which the hot effluent is cooled. A refractory lined constricted throat directs hot effluent into a dip tube which guides the effluent into the bath. A multi-segment quench ring supports the refractory throat, and is communicated with a coolant distributing manifold. Means is provided in the quench ring to impinge liquid coolant against the dip tube guide surface. A multi-segment distribution ring segment is removably independent of the quench ring main segment to facilitate separation of the manifold from the quench ring, without removing support to the refractory throat.
