A Type III extended pilot plant evaluation of molten H-Coal liquefaction residue, which was obtained from the liquefaction of Illinois No. 6 coal at the H-Coal liquefaction process pilot plant at Catlettsburg, Kentucky, was successfully completed at Texaco's Montebello Research Laboratory. Approximately 55 tons of residue were gasified during five runs which were carried out at 750 to 790 psig in the Texaco pilot plant residue gasifier. The steam-to-residue ratio and the gasifier temperature were varied to determine optimum operating conditions. The runs lasted from 3.5 hours to 64 hours, and a total 138 hours of on-stream time was accumulated. This work was authorized by DOE Deliver Order Number 7 under DOE contract EX-76-C-01-2247 and amendment DEAC-01-76ET-10137. It is part of a continuing project to evaluate residual materials from various DOE sponsored coal liquefaction projects to determine their suitability for conversion to hydrogen using one of the Texaco gasification processes.
