<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="color:#1F497D">The largest diameter updraft gasifiers that have been built in the US are 2 m fluidized beds. EPI (now Outotec) and others built them in the 1980s when there was a tax incentive for gasification.
The same companies have built 4-5 m combustors but I don’t know of any gasifiers that size. The new syngas gasifiers are intended to be that size but nothing has been built. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="color:#1F497D">The plasma enhanced updrafts by AlterNRG (e.g. Westinghouse gasifier) in Turkey and India may be that large. Ebara in Japan may also have something that large.
