The objective of this contract is to provide engineering support services to the Department of Energy/Gas Research Institute in the high Btu coal gasification research program. The gasification research program is to determine the specific process and/or combination of component processing steps that offer the greatest economic potential for commercial application. Kellogg has assembled a task team and formulated plans for managing this program so that Kellogg can be quickly responsive to the needs of the Department of Energy/Gas Research Institute (DOE/GRI) and the program contractors. Kellogg has visited all of the Pilot Plants and Process Development Units (PDUs) presently involved in the DOE/GRI high-Btu coal gasification programs. Monitoring and evaluation activities have begun with recent tests at the Hygas and BI-GAS pilot plants and the Westinghouse PDU. A metallurgist has been assigned to follow the activities of the Metal Properties Council in materials testing in the coal gasification environment.
