Gasifier

← Previous | Next →

The following Gasifier menu allows you to choose the type of gasifier, one of the following:

•GE (Quench): (This is the default.) GE gasification is a form of entrained flow gasification in which coal is fed to the gasifier in a water slurry. A quench cooling system is used in all cases. See GE Parameters and GE Results for more details.

•Shell: The shell gasification system is a dry-feed entrained flow gasification technology. Radiant syngas cooling is used for non-capture cases, and a quench cooling system is used for capture cases. See Shell Parameters and Shell Results for more details.
