Synthesis gas is the main product of the process. Gasification transforms all organic materials in the waste into a synthesis gas, with a composition that reflects the thermodynamic equilibrium of the temperature at the top of the reactor - approximately 1200°C.
The high-temperature, oxygen-free environment, and the residence time of more than two seconds in the upper part of the reactor, ensures that the prime constituents of the exiting syngas only occur as the smallest possible molecular species in the form of H2, CO, CO2 and H2O.
