The paper analyzes entrained-flow high-oxygen gasification of pulverized coal (a Shell type process)is considered. Water vapor is commonly added to increase the yield of combustible components. This research uses a mathematical model in a one-dimensional stationary approximation to see how adding carbon dioxide and a mixture of carbon dioxide and water vapor to the oxygen flow will affect the process. The paper presents estimates of thermochemical conversion rate (cold gas efficiency), combustible gas content, and completeness of fuel carbon conversion for all the tested configurations. Calculations show that adding carbon dioxide can reduce the specific oxygen consumption of the gasification process whilst ensuring more complete fuel conversion. Adjustments in the water vapor to carbon dioxide ratio help control the gas composition (albeit in a rather narrow range) and the temperature of the raw produced gas at the reaction zone outlet.

In this work, we studied the efficiency of the coal gasification process under oxyfuel conditions. Using mathematical modelling one-dimensional stationary statement, the optimal parameters of coal processing were determined, air and oxyfuel conditions are compared. The calculated dependences of the characteristics of the gasification process on the stoichiometric ratio at different initial temperatures are constructed. The optimal values of oxygen stoichiometric ratio and the maximum values of cold gas efficiency in the selected range of parameters are determined. The contribution of the thermophysical and reactive properties of the gasification agent to the change in the cold gas efficiency is estimated.

AbstractThe three-dimensional (3-D) comprehensive mathematical model was developed to simulate the coal gasification process in an entrained flow gasifier with a swirl burner. The models employed or developed includes the coal devolatilization model, the char combustion and gasification model, the gas homogeneous reaction model, the random-trajectory model, gas turbulence model, and the P-1 radiation model. The solution of models was executed based on the computational fluid dynamics (CFD). By qualitatively comparing the results at different swirl number, the significant influences of swirl on characteristics of coal gasification such as flow distributions, gas temperature and product composition including hydrogen (H2), carbon monoxide (CO), etc., and on the performance of coal gasification such as averaged exit product composition, carbon conversion rate and cold gas efficiency, were in detail discussed. Especially, a proper swirl number (S ≤ 0.65) in favor of gasification was found for the investigated gasifier in this paper.

Catalysis was used to increase the H2 production, syngas heating value, enhanced carbon conversion efficiency and cold gas efficiency during gasification. Due to Cu and Zn were abundant in waste according to previous researches, this research discussed the effect of Cu and Zn on artificial waste gasification. The syngas composition and total lower heating value (LHV) were determined in this study. The results showed that the existence of Cu and Zn increased production of H2 and CO. However, the production of CH4 and CO2 decreased. At same time, total LHV was also increased. Additionally, the different Cu concentration affected gas composition and LHV, but the effect of Zn concentration was not significant.

Gasification Temperature

Biomass gasification is widely used for converting solid biomass into synthesis gas for energy applications. Raw biomass is commonly used as feedstock for the gasification process but it usually contains high moisture content and low energy value which lowering synthesis gas production. Thus, torrefaction as a pre-treatment process is necessary in order to upgrade the properties of feedstock for producing more synthesis gas production and improving gasification performance. The objective of this work is to study the effect of gasification temperature on the synthesis gas production and gasification performance using raw and torrefied palm mesocarp fibre (PMF). The gasification process is conducted using bubbling fluidized bed using steam as gasifying agent. Based on experimental work, by increasing gasification temperature from 650 – 900 °C, the compositions of hydrogen and carbon monoxide gases were enhanced greatly while carbon dioxide and methane gases were decreased for both raw and torrefied PMF. In terms of gasification performance, synthesis gas yield for raw and torrefied PMF is increased from 0.91 to 1.23 Nm3/kg and 1.10 to 1.35 Nm3/kg respectively. Besides, lower heating value (LHV) of torrefied PMF is 0.04 MJ/Nm3 higher than raw PMF at 900 °C. The result showed that the percentage of cold gas efficiency (CGE) reached maximum of 67% for raw PMF while carbon conversion (CC) at 85.6% for torrefied PMF at a gasification temperature of 900 °C. The higher CC obtained by torrefied PMF is because of the increment of carbon content from 45.2% to 53.7% as a result of torrefaction. Gasification temperature of 800 °C showed the best performance of the PMF gasification since the maximum performances of LHV is achieved and started to decrease once the gasification temperature is operated beyond 800 °C.
