Process economics for Coalcon's clean boiler fuels from coal demonstration plant show that the final minimum selling prices of the fuels from this process vary from $2.07 to $2.80/million Btu. The higher figure was derived using the discounted cash flow method, while the lower figure assumes a debt : equity method of financing. The conceptual design for the plant is divided into five main areas: coal preparation, hydrocarbonization reactor, reactor product cooling and liquids separation, gas processing, and hydrogen generation. Ancillary equipment includes char combustion/steam generation, sulfur processing, pollution abatement, and utilities (power, cooling water, etc.).
