Dickinson Pure Air Combustion ERIP technical progress report number 4 [for the reporting period 7/98 through 9/98]
Research was focused on work done to date and melding with current market conditions and demand. The overall objective of this program is to demonstrate the feasibility of EnerTech`s combustion technology to produce clean energy efficiently and cost effectively from coal and/or other char slurry fuels. From the data generated in this project, EnerTech will be able to conduct preliminary engineering design work for a process development unit. The design work included simulations that optimize process cycle efficiency, and includes analysis of process temperature, pressures, and mass/energy flows. The overall goal is to conduct the research necessary to launch a commercial process. Market surveys indicated that stand-alone systems would not find a near-term market; therefore, the company is concentrating on a configuration that includes a process that first generates a slurry char product.
