After a post-run inspection for Test 65, Test 66 was conducted with over 9 days of reactor operation with hydrogen and char feed. Steady-state, self-sustained operations were achieved at a char feed rate of about 2 tons/hr and at coal conversions ranging from 78% to 85%. A large amount of data was supplied to Procon, Inc., to aid in its design of a commercial/demonstration HYGAS plant. Results of Argonne National Laboratory's cyclone inspection are given. Methods for calculating coal and carbon conversions in the HYGAS reactor are also presented.
