Summary

This eleventh Quarterly Technical Progress Report presents the results of work accomplished during the period April 1, 1992 through June 30, 1992 under Contract No. DE-AC21-88MC26367 entitled ``Production of Low-Cost Hydrogen.`` The overall objective of this program is to verify the ability of the MTCI indirectly heated fluid-bed gasifier to produce a hydrogen-rich product gas from liquefaction by-product streams and from char produced in mild gasification processes. The characterization unit was renovated and another burner/exhaust designed to replace the one that has been in use for several years. Initial shakedown tests for bed calcination indicated that the gasifier should be changed with fresh limestone and kept at temperature, with whatever make-up was required to maintain bed height until calcination was completed as determined by the CO concentration. Char gasification was then initiated and two relatively long-term tests (15.5 and 10.5 hours) were completed at two different temperatures.
