- Summary
- The scope of work under this contract consists of technical assistance in the following areas: advancing the development of coal gasification processes and related technologies to their maximum potential; gathering, compiling, and presenting essential data necessary to delineate the advantages and disadvantages of each competing process; determining and identifying the specific process and/or combination of component processing steps that offer the greatest economic potential for commercial application; performing evaluations to determine the areas of development necessary to provide all technical data, including equipment and material specifications, required for the design and construction of a commercial coal gasification facility; making recommendations and assisting in the compiling of sufficient data to complete conceptual commercial designs and prepare associated factored estimates; evaluating progress reports for consistency, compliance with contract requirements, and adequacy in providing data necessary for process evaluation; and conducting additional studies that could enhance the technical and economic assessment of coal gasification technologies. Foster Wheeler provides the required support services in accordance with task orders approved by the DOE/GRI Operating Committee. During the present quarterly period, these support efforts were primarily directed to Task No. 1, monitoring and evaluation of the following projects: Westinghouse PDU and Cold Flow Scale-Up Facility (CPSF), Mountain Fuels Resources PDU; Bell Aerospace PDU; and Metals Properties Council. In mid-December, 1983, Foster Wheeler was authorized to start work on two additional tasks; Task No. 2, Lurgi Baseline Study, and Task No. 3, Coal Fines Consolidation Study.
