Successful coal gasification experiments were achieved using the coal gasifier. Product gas containing hydrogen as high as 60% was obtained, and the calorific value of the product of 10 MJ·m-3 was obtained using air as oxidant. The reaction temperature of coal gasification in the moving bed was maintained at 870 °C which was comparatively low for coal gasification. Maximum coal gasification efficiency of 92% was obtained.展开更多

Response surface methodology is used to optimize the draft tube height, the draft tube width and the gap between the bottom of the draft tube and the inlet nozzle. It is observed that the draft tube with a height of 60 millimeter, width of 12 millimeter and the gap of 13 millimeter between its bottom and inlet nozzle, results in optimum value of minimum spouting velocity, measured 45 cubic centimeter per second (2.7 Liter per minute) .展开更多
