    摘要: System for processing material to generate syngas in a modular architecture may include a plurality of primary reactor chambers and a shared secondary reactor chamber. Each primary reactor chamber includes electrodes protruding into the chamber, the electrodes operable to generate an arc capable to generate first-stage gas from breakdown of the material when electricity is applied to the electrodes. The secondary reactor chamber is operable to receive the first-stage gas generated by the plurality of primary reactor chambers and to receive water vapor. The gas generated within the plurality of primary reactor chambers combine and interact with the water vapor to form second-stage gas. Turbulence can be generated within the secondary reactor chamber to improve mixing of the first-stage gas with the water vapor. Powering of each of the primary reactor chambers can be done with a different phase of power from a multi-phase input to ensure balanced power utilization.

    摘要: System for generating syngas includes a primary reactor chamber operable to receive material, a plurality of first-stage gas pipes connected to the primary reactor chamber, and a secondary reactor chamber. The primary reactor chamber comprises a plurality of electrodes at least partially protruding into the primary reactor chamber, the electrodes operable to generate an arc capable to generate first-stage gas from breakdown of the material within the primary reactor chamber when electricity is applied to the electrodes. The secondary reactor chamber is operable to receive the first-stage gas via the first-stage gas pipes and to receive water vapor. The first-stage gas combines and interacts with the water vapor to form second-stage gas. Each of the first-stage gas pipes comprise a portion protruding into the secondary reactor chamber that together are adapted to direct the flow of first-stage gas to generate turbulence within the secondary reactor chamber.
