Gasification of coal
Davey, W. L. E. PCT Int. Appl. WO 99 25,792 (Cl. ClOJ3/46), 27 May 1999, ZA Appl. 98/1,385, 19 Feb 1998. 35. The gasification of coal is presented. The initial step in the process involves pneumatically conveying pulverized coal along a coal feed line, and feeding the pneumatically conveyed pulverized coal into a gasification chamber through a burner connected to the coal feed line. Simultaneously, a oxygencontaining gasification agent, is fed into the gasification chamber via the burner. The pulverized coal is gasified by allowing it to burn with a less than stoichiometric amount of oxygen inside the gasification chamber at substantially atmospheric pressure to form a hot gaseous component consisting of carbon monoxide and hydrogen. The gaseous component is withdrawn from the gasification chamber as a gaseous product comprising carbon monoxide and hydrogen. From the bottom of the gasification chamber, slag can be withdrawn.
00101812 Hydrogen recovery from coke oven gas using a layered-column PSA process Yang, J. Ft~mltun. Athwpt., [Confl]. 61/r. 199X. 897-902. Experimental and theoretical investigations were carried out on two-bed PSA processes using two single or double layered beds, in order to recover Ha from coke oven gas. A comparison was made between the two processes with and without a backfill step. In a layered bed PSA, the seven-step PSA process with a backfill step improved the purity of the product. These PSA processes were simulated with a dynamic model incorporating mass, energy and momentum balances. Simulation was used to predict the concentration profiles and they showed that CO and N2 played a significant role in obtaining high product purity. The temperature profiles were measured experimentally and agreed well with simulated results. 00/01813 Improvement in coke quality - some approaches Mitra, P. K. Fuel Sri. Techno/.. 1997. 16. (2). 63-69. This paper presents three different approaches used in improving the quality of coke. First, modern sole heated non-recovery ovens, second, solvent refined coal in the coking blend as an additive, and third, low volatile coals of Jharia coalfield.
00/01814 Influence of some geological and technical conditions on coal-bed methane production in Poland
A hydrogen sulfide-containing gas generated by desulfurization of a gas produced by coal gasification is burned while using an oxygenated gas. An apparatus for burning the HzS-containing gas comprises a pipe for supplying air for burning and a pipe connected with the former pipe for diluting a gas containing oxygen at lower concentration. Alternatively. the apparatus comprises a pipe for supplying the H&containing gas and a pipe connected with the former for supplying the diluting gas. H2S is burned to SOz, which can easily be removed by a limestone-gypsum desulfurization apparatus, while unburned H$ and SO7 generation is suppressed.

Konda, T. and Kunimasa, H. Jpn. Kokai Tokkyo Koho JP I I 116,969 [9Y 116.9691 (Cl. ClOB57/04), 27 Apr 1999, Appl. 971285636, I7 Ott 1997. 5. (In Japanese) The method for charging dry coal into coke ovens is presented. The procedure involves the drying of pulverized raw material coal and then separating that into fine coal powder and coarse coal powder, mixing the separated fine coal powder with the pulverized raw material coal. adding binder and further mixing to produce a mixture containing lumps and combining the ‘lumpy’ mixture with the formerly separated coarse coal powder and charging mto coke oven. It is suitable to manufacture coke that can be used in blast furnaces with this method.

First, a mixture of coal. iron ore fines and additives is fed into an inclined or vertical coke oven chamber. Second, the mixture is heated in the absence of air at ~IlOtlC, and third the resulting iron sponge-coke mixture is discharged into an intermediate hunker in the absence of air and then discharged directly into a converter-like vessel which is bottom-blown with oxygen-enriched air.

Rychlicki, S. Prot. Int. Gas Rcs. Cottf., 1998. I. 298-308. This paper presents information on possible ideas of coal-bed methane production in Poland, especially in the Upper Silesian Coal Basin (USCB). As the depth of the USCB increases, the methane content changes, the factors that influence this are discussed. Details about project plans for microfracturing, minifracturing and methane flow simulation through hydraulic fracturing are also provided.

Semin, G. L. Appl Cofal.. A. 1999. 181. (I). 131-137. A study of electrocatalytix oxidation of methane over Platinum-based electrode-catalyst in a solid oxide fuel cell reactor CH4. Pt ]0.9ZrOz+O.lYzOs]Pt, air at 800°C and atmospheric pressure. In order to characterize the electrode-catalyst, electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis and scanning electron microscopy techniques were used. The experimental results demonstrate that the platinum-based electrode is an active electrode-catalyst for partial oxidation of methane (in a diluent absence) to syngas, concentration ratio being [Ha]/[CO]w2. Methane conversion and carbon monoxide selectivity attained 97% and 95%, respectively. Under these conditions, the reactor is operated in a similar way to fuel cells and the electrode-catalyst is also stable.

Modeling pyrolysis behavior for international coals
Serio, M. A. Pwpr. S~wp. - Am. Chrm. Ser.. Div. FM,/ C/wm.. 1999. 44. (I ). 153-l 56. The historical development of the FG-DVC (functional group-depolymerization. vapourization, crosslinking) network model for coal devolatilization is reviewed. The FG-DVC model can predict, in addition to the tar and total yield of volatiles. the yields of individual gas species, the distribution of tar molecular weights and the semicoke fluidity. The model can be coupled with a semicoke reactivity model, which can then incorporate the effects of thermally induced annealing on semicoke reactivity. This model is being extended to a range of international coals, instead of simply being used for North American coals.
