The purpose of this paper is to investigate the possibilities of implementing a rotating gasifier to convert aero-derived gas turbines into multifuel ship propulsion units, therby combining the advantages of lightweight and compact gas turbines with the multifuel charactersitics of a rotating gasifier. Problems (and possible solutions) to be discussed are: aerodynamic interaction between gas turbine and gasifier; attaining maximum energy productivity together with ease of control; corrosion and/or erosion of gas turbine components.
