ABSTRACT:
In a fluidized bed reactor system having a gas cooler, with cooling surfaces, downstream of a first cyclone separator, the cooling surfaces are cleaned by introducing sufficient concentration of bed particles into the gas during, or just prior to, cooling, so that the particles mechanically dislodge deposits from, and thereby clean, the cooling surfaces. The particles are then removed downstream of the cooler by a second separator, and the bed particles separated by the second separator may be returned to the fluidized bed reactor at or just before the cooler to again be used to effect cooling. Cleaning may be practiced in spaced time intervals only (e.g. periodically or intermittently), or continuously. Where practiced intermittently the efficiency of operation of the first separator may be diminished by introducing a fluid stream, or a solid object, into the vortex flow within the first separator, so that a sufficient number and size of particles pass through the first separator so as to effect cooler cleaning.
