Advance Coal Liquefaction Design Project:Capital Cost Validation.

摘要

A capital cost estimate of the Advanced Coal Liquefaction Commercial Plant,prepared by Fluor Engineers and Constructors,Inc.,has been reviewed,validated,and updated. This facility was designed to have a feed rate of 41,3000tons per day of run-of-mine coal or about 30,000tons per day of clean coal. The facility was designed to produce approximately 65,500barrels per day of gasoline; 7,880barrels per day of butane; 8,200barrels per day of propane; 8,200barrels per day of ethane; 58,000,000cubic feet per day of synthetic natural gas;and 1200long tons per day of sulfur. Results of the USAEDH estimate showed a fixed capital cost of $1.898billion which is less than the Fluor estimate of $1.983billion (Both estimates based on mid-1976dollars). The overall confidence factor was determined to be plus or minus 4.2percent. Escalation of the USAEDH estimate to mid-1977dollars resulted in a fixed capital cost of 2,021billion for the facility.
