Abstract:
Coal gasification that converts coal into syngas is a promising technology for efficient and clean utilization of coal. Current simulations of coal gasification are mostly based on equilibrium reactions, which cannot reflect the residence time and carbon conversion rate. In this paper, the reliable chemical kinetics simulation of the coal gasification is carried out considering the solid residence time and the effects of the main parameters on the gasification performance are analyzed. The results show that the higher the O2/coal ratio, the higher the carbon conversion rate until it reaches 100 %. However, an excessively high O2/coal ratio will reduce the cold gas efficiency. Therefore, the ideal cold gas efficiency is further proposed, revealing the energy saving potential of the system by reusing the ungasified coal. Based on this, the energy conversion characteristics of the combined cycle system were analyzed, showing that the effective conversion of coal to synthetic gas is the key to improving efficiency.
