    Abstract: A process and apparatus are provided for reducing content of tar in a tar containing syngas. The process includes contacting the tar containing syngas with a molecular oxygen containing gas in a first reaction zone to produce a gas mixture. The gas mixture is passed through a heat treatment zone maintained at a temperature between about 900° C. to about 2000° C. for a contact time of about 0.5 to about 5 seconds. In this aspect, at least a portion of the tar undergoes at least partial oxidation and/or cracking to produce a hot syngas.

    Abstract: A process provides high ethanol productivity levels during fermentation of a CO-containing substrate. The process controls CO-substrate feed rates and cell density to avoid culture upset and CO inhibition. The process includes fermenting a CO-containing gaseous substrate to obtain a target cell density and a target CO feed rate, and then periodically reducing and increasing the CO feed rate.

    Abstract: A process and system provide for processing inorganic matter-containing residue in a thermal decomposition process. The process and system are effective for reducing pressures which can occur during processing of inorganic matter-containing residue. A process for processing inorganic matter-containing residue in a thermal decomposition process includes conveying inorganic matter containing residue from a thermal decomposition unit to a burn-out section and conveying the inorganic matter containing residue from the burn-out section through a transition section to an ash sump. The inorganic matter containing residue is cooled to remove about 10% or more of heat in the inorganic matter containing residue before reaching the ash sump. The process further includes contacting the inorganic matter containing residue with a cooling medium in the gas sump and venting gaseous material generated back to the thermal decomposition unit.
