Abstract

A device for cooling a stream of hot producer gas exiting from a gasification reactor operating at an increased pressure, includes a set of water spraying nozzles directed against the producer gas stream. Water feeding conduits connected to the nozzles pass through a sealing web provided between the pipe wall structure of the reactor and a separate pipe wall structure of a gas outlet connection piece provided above the discharge opening of the reactor. The geometric locations of respective nozzles are on a circle whose diameter is larger than that of the gas discharge opening and is smaller than the inner diameter of the pipe wall structure of the connection piece.
