This report represents the third annual report of progress in the coordination of DOE Fossil Energy's environmental characterization activities at its coal gasification pilot plants. Participants in the program include Argonne National Laboratory (Hygas), Combustion Engineering (CE gasifier), the Grand Forks Energy Technical Center (slagging fixed bed gasifier), the Institute of Gas Technology (Hygas), Oak Ridge National Laboratory (gasifiers in industry), the Pittsburgh Energy Technical Center (Synthane), Phillips Petroleum (Bi-Gas), and Radian Corp. (C/sub 2/-Acceptor). Coordination and evaluation efforts are carried out by Carnegie-Mellon University with the assistance of its sub-contractor, Environmental Research and Technology, Inc. Substantial progress has been made by each of the listed participants during the past year; their work is extensively documented in a series of reports now available in the literature. The present report is devoted to a discussion of the evolving role of engineering in the generation of coal gasification environmental data bases. Significant engineering contributions to the program are highlighted here with supporting data.
