Abstract (en)

The present invention relates to a reactor (100) for the gasifying and/or melting of feed materials. The reactor comprises:a co-current section (110), comprising a plenum zone (111), comprising a feed zone with a sluice (112), wherein feed materials are introduced into the reactor (100) from above via the feed zone, a buffer zone (113), a pyrolysis zone (114), which adjoins a bottom of the buffer zone (113) to create a cross-sectional enlargement, and an intermediate zone (115) adjoining the pyrolysis zone, an upper oxidation zone (116) adjoining a bottom of the intermediate zone and comprising tuyeres (117) in at least one plane, and an upper reduction zone (118) adjoining a bottom of the upper oxidation zone (116), a gas outlet section (120) comprising at least one gas outlet (121), and a countercurrent section (130) comprising a conical lower reduction zone (138) adjoining the gas outlet section (120) and a conical lower oxidation zone (136) adjoining the lower reduction zone (138) comprising at least one tuyere (137) and at least one tapping (131).
