Advanced development of a pressurized ash agglomerating fluidized-bed coal gasification system. Tenth monthly progress report, November 1982

Technical Report · Tue Dec 14 04:00:00 EST 1982

OSTI ID:5805774

Accomplishments for the month of November are presented for the following tasks: process development unit (PDU) test operations and results; process and component engineering and design; process analysis; cold flow scaleup facility (CFSF); laboratory support studies. Some of the highlights are: single-stage, oxygen-blown test TP-033-2 was conducted from October 21 to November 22 using Wyoming Sub-C and Western Kentucky No. 9 coals as the feedstocks; construction activities for TP-033-2 were completed and commissioning activities were finalized; operational analysis of the PDU non-mechanical valve performance during the November test, TP-033-2, was conducted; CFSF test TP-M007-1 with the 10-inch diameter oxidant tube was completed; laboratory studies were conducted in the areas of gas-solids flow modeling and coal/ash behavior.
