Abstract

In the case of a device for gasification of carbonaceous fuels, having a discharge for slags into a slag bath, a solution is supposed to be created with which the gasifier discharge opening is reliably kept at a temperature that guarantees that the slag will flow out. This is achieved in that the gasifier discharge opening ( 6 ) is equipped with a ceramic drip edge ( 7 ) that can be electrically heated.

Claims (4)

1. Device for gasification of carbonaceous fuels, having a discharge for slags into a slag bath, wherein the gasifier discharge opening is equipped with a ceramic drip edge that is electrically heated via an electric heating system, wherein the heating system is formed by an electrical, ceramic resistance heating system, wherein the electric heating system comprises a power feed rod comprising an electrically conductive ceramic, and wherein the power feed rod is enclosed by a ceramic that is not electrically conductive.

2. Device according to claim 1 , wherein the ceramic drip edge is directly heated.

3. Device according to claim 1 , wherein the ceramic drip edge is indirectly heated.

4. Device according to claim 1 , wherein the ceramic that can be electrically heated is formed from Al 2 O 3 , Cr 2 O 3 , CaO, Fe 2 O 3 , HfO 2 , MgO, SiO 2 , SnO 2 , TiO 2 , ZrO 2 , AlN, MoSi 2 , SiC, BN, cermets, individually or in combination.
