OSTI ID:6964201
On June 24 and 25, 1986, METC sponsored the Sixth Annual Gasification Contractors Meeting which was held at the Ramada Inn in Morgantown, West Virginia. The primary purpose of the meeting was threefold: to review the technical progress and current status of the gasification projects sponsored by the Department of Energy. To foster technology exchange among participating researchers and other technical communities. To facilitate interactive dialogues which would identify research needs that would make coal based gasification systems more attractive economically and environmentally. More than 170 representatives of Government, academia, industry, and overseas coal research organizations attended the 2-day meeting. Twenty-nine papers and nine poster displays were presented summarizing recent developments in fundamental mechanisms/innovative concepts, fluid dynamic/modeling, gas separation/upgrading, and operating experience of the large-scale pilot plants in the US Scientists, engineers, and administrators discussed many of the issues facing those engaged in the research and development activities that constitute the gasification program. This document constitutes the proceedings of that meeting and serves as a summary of the gasification program. Selected papers have been processed for inclusion in the Energy Data Base.
