The objective of this program is to design, construct, operate, and evaluate a 6000 TPD SRC-I Demonstration Plant as the first module of a 30,000 TPD commercial scale plant. Under subcontract to Air Products and Chemicals, Inc. (APCI); Catalytic, Inc. (Catalytic) had the responsibility to carry out a preliminary process study and cost estimate for the 6000 TPD SRC-I Demonstration Plant. Catalytic's involvement was limited to two areas, as follows: Area 12 - SRC process, and Area 13 - Deashing. In this Appendix, SRC deashing is accomplished by the Kerr-McGee Critical Solvent Deashing (CSD) Process. The onsite design for the Kerr-McGee CSD Process was prepared by Catalytic, Inc. Catalytic's scope in these areas included generating heat and material balances, developing process and control flow diagrams, sizing equipment, estimating utilities requirements, and preparing estimates of costs for Phases I and II of the demonstration plant program. All of this information is presented in Sections II through VIII. The design changes necessary to generate hydrogen from ash concentrate produced by the Kerr-McGee CSD Process are documented. The changes required in utilities and offsites for the Kerr-McGee CSD Process are provided in Section X.
