The results show that the gasification rate increases with the raising of the gasification temperature under the temperature among 1150℃and1450℃, and as the temperature is above1350℃, the increasing rate become slower. Cold gas efficiency?and?carbon conversion meet the maximum value when the temperature approaches the ash fusion point of coal. With the further rise of the temperature, ash on the surface of the char starts to be melted,?the gasification reaction rate decreases, due to the hindrance of the effective contact between coal char and gasification agent. The gasification efficiency would become steady when the residence time exceeds 8s.展开更多

In this paper, a new type furnace for partitioned alternative gasification using pulverized coal is developed, in which the oxidation and reduction reaction occur alternatively with the dropping of pulverized coal and finally HHV gas could be continuously obtained at the reduction zone exit and low heat value(LHV) gas at the oxidation zone exit. Furthermore, the gasification characteristics and their factors in furnace are numerically simulated under two dimensional model with a self-coded program, based on heat, mass and energy transfer as well as reaction principles. It is found that the producing rate of HHV gas is 1.10Nm3/kg with heat value of ll.72MJ/Nm3, how- ever, that of LHV gas is 2.58Nm3/kg with heat value of 5.30MJ/Nm3, and the coal gas efficiency is 81.16% under optimized conditions.展开更多
