The present invention provides a control unit integrated in a carbonaceous feedstock vaporizer. The apparatus is, in various combinations, an optimum set point for all aspects of the vaporization reaction vessel (or transducer), solid residue handling subsystem, gas quality conditioning subsystem, and vaporization process having one or more processing regions and one or more plasma heat sources. It generally includes integrated control subsystems to maintain overall energy management as well as to maintain the overall energy management of the carbonaceous feedstock into energy. Vaporizers can control heat recovery subsystems and / or product gasesn n n Optionally include auxiliary devices. |
