Summary
This monthly report summarizes progress on the operation of the 25-ton/day coal gasification PDU to study the Agglomerating Burner Gasification Process. Also reported is work on the process engineering task and the activity on the turbine engineering study. Steel liners have been installed in the combustor and gasifier to prevent refractory spalls from upsetting solids circulation. Extensive solids circulation tests have been completed and a correlation relating solids circulation rate to pressure loss in the vertical riser has been developed. The standard deviation of observed data from values calculated by this correlation is 0.19. Efforts to complete an integrated gasification run were retarded by failure of a section of steel pipe in the solids transfer line and failure of portions of the combustor distributor plate. Fabrication of the erosion test rig is complete and the unit is ready for hot-gas calibration.
