The invention discloses a hydrocarbon-containing raw material gasification process with overhead multi-path/single-nozzle structure. The process comprises the following steps: 1, processing a solid block-shaped hydrocarbon-containing raw material into powder or slurry; 2, respectively feeding the hydrocarbon-containing raw material and a gasifying agent into a reactor through a hydrocarbon-containing raw material path and a gasifying agent path of an upper multi-path single-nozzle to carry out a mixing reaction and generate raw gas; 3, cooling the raw gas, and washing the raw gas to remove rawgas impurities in the raw gas; and 4, performing concentration, filtration and heat recovery treatment on the black water after cooling and washing in sequence to obtain ash water. Through feeding ofthe hydrocarbon-containing raw material path and the gasifying agent path of the overhead multi-path single nozzle, the process realizes feeding of various forms and types of hydrocarbon-containing raw materials, so that the various hydrocarbon-containing raw materials are fully gasified and converted into raw gas at the same time. The process can improve the quality of raw gas products, expandsthe application range of the gasification process to raw materials, improves the gasification efficiency, reduces the equipment and operation cost, and guarantees the safety of the gasification process.
