Design and economics of a coal-to-pipeline-gas facility using KRW gasifiers with reduced carbon conversion. Topical report, August 1987-January 1988

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6548475
The objective of the study was to assess the magnitude of the economic benefit or penalty associated with reducing the carbon conversion of KRW gasification in a plant designed to produce a pipeline gas from eastern bituminous coal. The results of the study indicate that reducing the carbon conversion of KRW gasification in a pipeline plant may not provide an economic advantage over a plant based on KRW gasification with a high carbon conversion, but there is no penalty associated with low carbon conversion.
