In industrial chemistry, coal gasification is the process of producing syngas—a mixture consisting primarily of carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen (H 2), carbon dioxide (CO 2), methane (CH 4), and water vapour (H 2 O)—from coal and water, air and/or oxygen.. Historically, coal was gasified to produce coal gas, also known as "town gas".Coal gas is combustible and was used for heating and ...

Lump sized coal is used by Sasol as a feedstock to produce synthesis gas via the SasolLurgi FBDB gasification process. Once the coal is mined, it is crushed down to less than 100 mm (typical topsize of about 65 mm) and screened to a bottom size of about 6 coal enters the top of the gasifier through a lockhopper system, while reactant gases (steam and oxygen) are introduced at the ...
The Lurgi gasifier in China is one of the most suitable technologies to produce synthetic natural gas (SNG) from coal; however, a large amount of byproduct ash is discharged during the Lurgi gasification process, causing many environmental problems. Based on ash samples collected from a commercial Lurgi gasifier in a Chinese coaltoSNG plant, this paper studied the mineral composition and ...
Figure : SasolLurgi Fixed Bed Dry Bottom (FBDB) gasifier. In the gasification process, fluxing elementsbearing minerals or nonmineral inorganic elements interact with aluminium silicate present in the coal to lower the melting points of the aluminium silicate and subsequently form the melt (Matjie et al., 2006).
The ash sample for this study was collected from a commercialscale fixedbed gasification unit in the eastern part of India. This coal gasification plant (CGP) has a syn gas production capacity of 2,25,000 Nm 3/h with a coal requirement of around 270 tons/hr. The plant was built based on Lurgi, Germany SLTC, S. Africa technology.

Abstract. ''Synthetic fuel'' the Sasol way involves two major steps and several minor ones. Major steps are the Lurgi gasification and the FischerTropsch (Synthol) liquefaction,. It is known that the Sasol units use about 14 million tons of coal per year. About 65% of the coal production is gasified and the rest is used to generate steam and ...

The FischerTropsch process is a catalytic chemical reaction in which carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen (H 2) in the syngas are converted into hydrocarbons of various molecular weights according to the following equation: (2n+1) H 2 + n CO → C n H (2n+2) + n H 2 O. Where n is an integer. Thus, for n=1, the reaction represents the formation of ...
