Abstract
Laboratory-scale experiments were performed on chars from German hard coals with potassium carbonate addition. The steam gasification rate at 4 MPa and 700 °C as a function of the amount of catalyst added is described for a low-and high-ash char. From the burn-off behaviour the reaction order relative to carbon was determined. For the low-ash char a uniform reaction order was found but the high-ash char indicated a complex interaction of catalytic gasification, catalyst deactivation, and the development of the reacting surface.
