Abstract
A method for producing an organic substance includes a step of passing a synthesis gas G1 discharged from a gasifier 11 through a gas cooling tower 21 to cool the synthesis gas G1 with water sprayed in the gas cooling tower 21, a step of passing the synthesis gas G1 cooled in the gas cooling tower 21 through a filtration-type dust collector 22 and a step of bringing a synthesis gas G2 that has passed through at least the gas cooling tower 21 and the filtration-type dust collector 22 into contact with a microbial catalyst to generate an organic substance.
Claims9
A method for producing an organic substance comprising:
- a step of passing a synthesis gas discharged from a gasifier through a gas cooling tower to cool the synthesis gas with water sprayed in the gas cooling tower;
- a step of passing the synthesis gas cooled in the gas cooling tower through a filtration-type dust collector, and
- a step of bringing the synthesis gas that has passed through at least the gas cooling tower and the filtration-type dust collector into contact with a microbial catalyst to generate an organic substance,
- wherein the synthesis gas contains:
- 0.1 vol % or more and 80 vol % or less of carbon monoxide,
- 0.1 vol % or more and 80 vol % or less of hydrogen, and
- 0.01 vol % or more and 5 vol % or less of oxygen, and
- wherein oxygen is removed from the synthesis gas by a deoxidation device and carbon dioxide is removed from the synthesis gas by at least one selected from the group consisting of a pressure swing adsorption type separator, a temperature swing adsorption type separator, and a pressure/temperature swing adsorption type separator.
