A 32-month gasifier mechanistic study and downstream unit process development program for the Pressurized Ash-Agglomerating Fluidized Bed Gasification System: Quarterly progress report, January 1--March 31, 1986

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6600048
The scope of work under this contract consists, in part, of design and installation of an external hot gas cleanup system for testing in the Process Development Unit (PDU) at Waltz Mill, PA. The design report was finalized and released this quarter, and construction work continued to complete installation of the external fixed-bed desulfurizer of zinc ferrite sorbent, the associated hot piping, and instrumentation. The upstream tertiary particulate removal system (a sintered metal filter) was successfully commissioned during PDU test TP-036-4. The post-test inspection results are included herein. This report also discusses the process followed in selection of a zinc ferrite sorbent for PDU testing and defines the hot gas cleanup Test Program Scope for 1986.
