- Summary:
- In addition to the control of ash particulates, a moving granular-bed filter can control other contaminants found in high-temperature, high-pressure coal gas streams through the use of chemically-reactive filter media. Under sponsorship of the U.S. Department of Energy, a laboratory test program is underway to evaluate the following three types of chemically-reactive filter media: a clay-based filter medium for the control of alkali and heavy metals in either reducing or oxidizing environments, a sodium-based filter medium for the control of halogens and metaloids in reducing-gas environments, and a nickel catalyst for the destruction of ammonia and hydrogen cyanide in a reducing-gas environments. The test program calls for the evaluation of techniques for forming reactive clay filter media and the evaluation of the structural and chemical properties of clay media, nahcolite (NaHCO₃) media, and media composed of nickel catalysts. Initial results of the development of a clay-based filter medium are presented.
