Proceedings of the ninth annual coal-fueled heat engines, advanced pressurized fluidized-bed combustion (PFBC), and gas stream cleanup systems contractors review meeting
- ed.
The Morgantown Energy Technology Center (METC) of the US Department of Energy held the Ninth Annual Coal-Fueled Heat Engines, Advanced Pressurized Fluidized-Bed Combustion (PFBC), and Gas Stream Cleanup Systems Contractors Review Meeting from October 27 to 29, 1992. METC held the conference in the new administration building at the METC site in Morgantown, West Virginia. The goal of the Heat Engines, PFBC, and Gas Stream Cleanup Programs at METC is to develop essential technologies so the private sector can sell power plants that burn coal-derived fuels. These plants must be cost competitive and environmentally acceptable. The plants will feature coal-fired heat engines integrated with gas stream cleanup systems. The purpose of the annual meeting is to provide a forum for scientists and engineers to present their results, exchange ideas, and talk about their plans. Executives from several industrial contractors discussed their plans to offer commercial coal-fired heat-engine systems. Two hundred attendees from industry, academia, and Government participated in the 2-day meeting. Participants gave 45 technical presentations in six lecture sessions and one poster session: Heat Engines Commercialization and Proof-of-Concept Projects (three papers); Advances in Coal-Fueled Diesels (two papers); Pressurized Fluidized-Bed Combustion (three papers); Coal-Fueled Gas Turbines (five papers); Gas Stream Cleanup for Heat Engines (seven papers); Advanced Turbine Systems (six papers); and Poster Presentations (19 posters). METC used camera-ready manuscripts from the authors to produce these proceedings. METC neither refereed nor edited the manuscripts. Papers have been entered individually.
