In this report, we have compared the results of calculations of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide partial pressures in NH/sub 3/-H/sub 2/S-H/sub 2/O subsystem by SURFIMP with our computer program. Results from application of our new calorific value formula to chars (by Bureau of Mines Laboratory in Pittsburgh) are also presented. Enthalpies of distillate fractions of various syncrudes are reported along with the comparison of the experimental data with correlations developed for estimating the enthalpies of petroleum fractions. We have included a report on combustion characteristics of SRC-I liquid. We have reviewed fixed-bed gasification of coal. For coal pyrolysis results of investigations of relations between tar-plus-light oil yield in Fischer Assay and various coal rank parameters are described. The problem of carbon deposition in methanators has been reviewed. Carbon deposition boundaries are shown for temperatures between 600/sup 0/F and 2400/sup 0/F and pressures ranging between 15 psia and 1000 psia. Two types of carbon were considered graphite and non ideal. Non ideal carbon refers to carbon that would be deposited based on calculations using experimental data obtained from decomposition studies of carbon monoxide and methane. Vogt and White's correlations for predicting pressure drop in horizontal and vertical pneumatic conveying in dilute phase were evaluated by comparison with available experimental data. We have presented mechanical strength data - yield strength, tensile strength, stress rupture data, and impact test data - on several candidate alloys for coal gasification environment. The tests were conducted both on as-received specimens and on specimens exposed to Coal Gasification Atmosphere.
