Sorry I misspelled the name it's Higman not Highman.
>I have never seen this design mentioned in the sources I have found, I would guess it would be rather useless.
Yes it's likely that you don't want to dilute the syngas with too much steam which everything downstream bigger and more expensive than the savings in the gas cooler.
>How would this work? Also, which heater?
I guess it would be like the self-cleaning home oven. Item 144 heating coil in >>2553039 which is probably for start-up: otherwise you have to make a regular fire with kindling and excess air somewhere near 144. Probably the gas turbine does not make a good chimney for that start-up fire. So anyways that coil is on which heats air and/or some rocks not wood. Then you have an extra fan or drive the gas turbine slowly to get the hot air out of the gasifier. Then the inside of the heat exchanger can heat up and hopefully the metal does not overheat. Probably the cooling water must be drained. But don't take my advice I haven't followed through with any designs.
