Nigeria. The liquefied natural gas project 96104036 Adepetun, S. and Segun, K. Energy Policy, Jun. 1996, 24, (6), 593-596. After a few false drawns, the Nigerian Liquefied Natural Gas Project is today moving from concept to reality having overcome the preliminary steps of gas reserve estimation, preliminary engineering and demand forecasting. The article provides a concise description of the project structure detailing the essential integrated elements of the chain, the sustenance of the project and the defined commercial arrangements for its finance and marketing. It also takes a look at the potential benefits the success of the project holds for Nigeria. 96104039 Technical report The Australian Gas J., Jun. 1996, 60, (3), 15-16. Technical issues related to open access in transmission and distribution systems have generally not received adequate industry focus in the gas reform activity to date. Issues covering legislative, commercial, regulatory, transition and other matters have enjoyed the centre stage position. This Technical Report looks at the issues being addressed as part of the CoAG Gas Reform process in Australia. 96lQ4040 United Nations natural gas research centre Cornot-Gandolphe, S. and Guerrini, Y. GAZ d’aujourd’hui, Jun. 1996, 120, (6), 267-270. (In French) As part of a programme to encourage technical cooperation between the member states of the UN Economic Commission for Europe which aims to develop cooperation between the countries of Eastern and Western Europe in the gas industry, a natural gas research centre has just been built under the aeeis of the United Nations. The article exulains the obiectives and acti&s of this new centre as well as the role of its membets Usina the ATG minitel service 96104841 Le Bras, C. GAZ d&jourd’hui, Jun. 1996, 120, (6), 281-284. (In French) The videotex service of the French gas association on the French ‘minitel’ system was devised by the ‘communications and services’ working party of the ATG training and information committee. In this article, the leader of the working party gives a few handy hints about the service it designed and put into action in conjunction with the Societe auxiliaire de I’industrie gaziere.

Combined power generation plant with coal 96104051 gasification Uchida. S. (Assigned to) Mifsubishi Heave Ind. Ltd.. JAP. Pat. JP.O7,247,807, Sep. 11995. The system of coal gasification in the plant, includes a coal oxidation, furnace for generating high-temperature gases by charging coal char, pressurized air, steam. and CaS. a coal gasification furnace for generating coal gas by charging the produced higKtemperature gas, pressirized ai?, and coal, a desulphurization furnace for fixing and desulphurizing by charging the produced coal gas and limestone to convert S-containing compounds into CaS. 96tO4852 A comparison of pyrolysis products with models for natural gas generation Andresen, B. er al., Chem. Geol., 1995, 126, (3) 261-280. Hydrous pyrolysis, using progressive heating from 150 to 365”C, is used to study the generation and isotopic composition of hydrocarbon gases and carbon dioxide. 96104853 Determination of the coefficients of losses and influx of air during underoround combustion and gasification of coal IZV. Vyssh. (ichebn. Zal’ed.. Gorn. Z/I., 1995, (7) Yanchenko, G. A. 10-17. (In Russian) Describes how during underground gasification and combustion of coal, air is pumped into a coal bed, and combustion gases and gasification products are recovered. The increased pressure in an air delivery canal and the underpressure (suction) in a product recovery canal result in air losses and influxes, respectively, due to natural permeability of the country rocks. The air losses and influxes are calculated.

Coal specimens with different mineral matter contents were produced from Greek lignite using various acid treatment conditions. Ash content and chemical composition of mineral matter depended on the type of acid used and the sequence of treatment stages.

The combined effects of inorganic constituents and carboiization conditions such as heating rate and-final temperature were determined. Gasification rates of chars with high ash content were higher than those of similarly prepared char with low ash content, due to the presence of catalytically active inorganic constituents.
