The primary objective of this project is to develop an advanced continuous mild gasification process and product upgrading processes which will be capable of eventual commercialization. The program consists of four tasks. Task 1 is a literature survey of mild gasification processes and product upgrading methods and also a market assessment of markets for mild gasification products. Based on the literature survey, a mild gasification process and char upgrading method will be identified for further development. Task 2 is a bench-scale investigation of mild gasification to generate design data for a larger scale reactor. Task 3 is a bench-scale study of char upgrading to value added products. Task 4 is being implemented by building and operating a 1000-pound per hour demonstration facility. Task 4 also includes a technical and economic evaluation based on the performance of the mild gasification demonstration facility. The continuous coke pilot plant installation was completed in the fourth quarter of 1994. Start-up showed areas needing improvement. Initial formed coke production has used five formulations. In-house testing eliminated two with the remaining three formulations being used as guidelines for production of formed coke for use tests. Multiple tons runs will be made for these tests.
