An engineering evaluation of environmental data from the Mountain Fuel Resources Coal Gasification Process Development Unit: Topical report

As part of its surface coal gasification program, the US Department of Energy's Morgantown Energy Technology Center (DOE/METC) provided the major part of the funding to construct and operate a 30 ton-per-day coal gasification process development unit (PDU) gased on Mountain Fuel Resources'(MFR) entrained-bed gasification process. During November 1984, Radian Corporation conducted a sampling and analysis program at the MFR PDU under contract to DOE/METC. The purpose of this program was to characterize the hot, raw product gas and liquid and solid discharges. These data were to be used to evaluate performance and environmental aspects of the process and potential pollution control needs of a commercial-scale facility based on this process. The intent of the program was not to evaluate pollution control systems at the PDU, nor was it designed to provide comprehensive data to determine detailed material balances for the PDU. Testing was performed during MFR Test No. 50 at one process set point with relatively steady flow rates of major streams. The PDU was operating with a Utah bituminous coal during this time. The purpose of this Technology Status report is to present the results of an engineering evaluation based on the use of the data obtained during the sampling and analysis program.
