Rossi, B; Estreich, P

This report describes a coal gasification/fuel cell/cogeneration (GFC) project that is specific to the Fort Hood, Texas site. The project at this site, as with those at the three other sites selected for this program, is intended to demonstrate the technical, economic, and financing viability of power generation by fuel cells using gas from coal. Mass and energy balances were prepared for the gasification, gas processing, fuel cell, and thermal management systems using a Texas lignite as the design coal.
