Coal Gasification Technology and Syngas Production: Ruben Reyes Che379
Purpose/Outline
Gasification technology
Different types of gasifiers
Products from gasification
3 types of gasifiers
Moving bed
Fluid Bed
Entrained Flow
Texaco Gasifier
(entrained flow, slagging)
Combined cycle
Combustion turbine
Heat used for generating steam
Conclusions
There are many ways that carbon containing compounds may be gasified
Coal gasification occurs best in entrained flow reactors such as the Texaco
gasifier
The coal will not heat up as much and will not create methane and tar.
The requirement for fine particles into the gasifier prevents agglomeration
Underground coal gasification technology is present and used today but with
certain challenges
Water contamination
Impact on environment and land
