FIELD: chemistry.
SUBSTANCE: invention can be applied in chemical industry. Water gasification of biomass is carried out under supercritical or nearly critical conditions: water pressure constitutes at least 150 bars, with water temperature being over 300°C. Mixed with additives and/or catalysts biomass is compressed by compressing device 1 and is supplied into reactor system 2, which includes heating section 3, with first heat exchanger 6, reaction section 4 and cooling section 5, with second heat exchanger 12. Heat carrier, in this case molten salt, circulates between first heat exchanger 6 and second heat exchanger 12. Heat exchangers 6 and 12 are connected with circulation system of heat carrier, which also includes first reservoir with salt 13, in which temperature, close to maximal work temperature of molten salt is supported, and second reservoir with salt 14, with temperature, close to temperature of molten salt melting.
EFFECT: invention makes it possible to increase efficiency of heat transfer, as well as ensures easy and well-managed control of heat exchange process.
