Recent Regulatory Experience of Low-Btu Coal Gasification. Volume I. Recommendations to Industrial Users.

摘要

The MITRE Corporation conducted a five-month study for the Office of Resource Applications in the Department of Energy on the regulatory requirements of low-Btu coal gasification. During this study, MITRE interviewed representatives of five curent low-Btu coal gasification projects and regulatory agencies in five states. From these interviews, MITRE has sought the experience of current low-Btu coal gasification users in order to recommend actions to improve the regulatory process. This report is the first of three volumes. It contains the major findings of the study and recommendations to potential industrial users of low-Btu coal gasification. Recommendations to regulatory agencies are presented in the second volume. Individual case studies are documented in the third volume.
