Abstract
Experimental research on coal gasification with a filtration and desulfurization system for the development of an integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) was performed with Indonesian LG, KPU and Canadian Arch coals. A dry-feeding entrained-bed type gasifier was operated below the fusion temperature of the coal and at 20 bar of pressure. The filtration system was designed for continuous capture and subsequent removal of the fly ash and the unreacted coal residue via a specialty metal filter. The hot fuel gas desulfurization unit (HGD) consisted of a transport desulfurizer, a bubbling regenerator and a multi-cyclone. The research objective was to investigate the feasibility of applying a partial slagging coal gasifier to attain high carbon conversion and cold gas efficiencies as well as to attain an operational capability for combining with filtration and HGD. A Pilot-scale test demonstrated that the coal fines were effectively removed and the overall sulfur removal efficiency of the hot fuel gas desulfurization unit was higher than 95.3%.
