Advanced Coal-Gasification System for Electric-Power Generation. Final Report, March 20, 1980-January 15, 1982

摘要

Westinghouse Electric Corporation is engaged in the development of a pressurized, fluidized bed gasification process at its Waltz Mill site, near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. With the sponsorship of the Department of Energy, its precursor agencies, and the Gas Research Institute, Westinghouse has conducted this development program from 1972 to March 1980 under Contract EF-77-C-01-1514 and from March 1980 to January 1982 under Contract DE-AC21-80ET14752. The overall objective of the program is to demonstrate the viability of the Westinghouse process for the production of low- and intermediate-Btu fuel gas for electric power generation, synthetic natural gas, chemical feedstocks, and industrial fuels. This report presents the development and technology activities performed, as well as the PDU test results obtained, during the 18-month period of Contract DE-AC21-80ET14752. (ERA citation 07:059110)
