The annual plant turnaround was completed. Test 64 was our longest test to date with Peabody No. 10 mine bituminous coal. Eight and one-half days of self-sustained operation were achieved, with coal conversions ranging from 72 to 97%. A cold-flow model was assembled to simulate the second-stage gasifier and the steam-oxygen gasifier. Results of tests made with this model are presented. Representatives of ERDA, Procon, and IGT held their initial meeting on the Procon design of the commercial/demonstration plant based on the HYGAS Process.
