Biomass Gasifier System With Low Energy And Maintenance Requirements
US Patent:
2009006, Mar 12, 2009
Filed:
Jun 16, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/139940
Inventors:
Chandra S. Theegala - Baton Rouge LA, US
International Classification:
C10J 3/68
US Classification:
48 76, 48203
Abstract:
A down-draft fixed bed gasifier is disclosed that produced clean producer or synthesis gas. The gasifier can be installed at a stationary location or can be scaled down to enable placing the gasifier on a trailer that can be moved to the site of biomass generation. The gasifier is vertically oriented and generally cylindrical, and the design allows for a continual input of feedstock into the gasifier with less clogging and without lowering the gas pressure inside the gasifier. The design incorporates an internal catalyst to clean tars from the produced gas, and uses heat from the combustion chamber of the gasifier to heat the catalyst. The flow of air may be either positive flow or negative flow.
Oil - Water Separator
US Patent:
2013019, Aug 1, 2013
Filed:
May 25, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/700179
Inventors:
Chandra S. Theegala - Baton Rouge LA, US
International Classification:
E02B 15/04
US Classification:
21017005
Abstract:
A separator is disclosed that may be used to separate oil from water in situ in the ocean or other water body. The difference in density between oil and water causes them to separate between two limbs of the apparatus, and to exit from different ports at different heights. The input may contain oil : water in essentially any ratio. The apparatus may be placed within a boat or ship, or it may be mounted on pontoons or other floatation gear and towed behind a boat or ship.
