The paper describes the first operation of the gas island within the IGCC power plant in Puertollano, Spain and mainly the PRENFLO gasification unit. PRENFLO is an entrained-flow gasification system with dry fuel dust feeding, which was developed by Krupp Uhde, the new company formed by Krupp Koppers and Uhde. Entrained-flow gasification with dry dust feeding is able to gasify a wide variety of solid fuels (hard coal, lignite, anthracite, refinery residues, etc.) The development was partly funded by the German Ministry of Research and Technology and the European Commission. With a capacity of 300 MW(e) (net) the IGCC plant in Puertollano is the largest unit world-wide based on coal.
