Development of a Hot Gas Cleanup System for Integrated Coal Gasification/Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell Power Plants. Monthly Project Status Report No. 21, November 1-November 30, 1984

摘要

The overall objective of this project is to conduct research and development to demonstrate the Solid-Supported Molten Salt (SSMS) Process for removing HCl and sulfur compounds from hot, pressurized fuel gas. Specific objectives are to: (1) demonstrate at the bench scale that the SSMS Process can remove H sub 2 S, COS, and HCl to less than 1 ppM; (2) provide performance data in sufficient detail to allow scale-up and economic evaluation of the process; (3) design a scaled-up test absorber suitable for use with a pressurized fluidized-bed gasifier with 150 lb/h of coal throughput; and (4) complete a conceptual design and capital and operating cost estimate for a commercial-scale absorber system. Progress is reported. (ERA citation 10:008721)
