Characterisation of coal and chars in fluidised bed gasification

Author: Oboirien, BO ; Engelbrecht, AD ; North, Brian C ; Du Cann, VM ; Falcon, R Date: Mar 2009 There is currently a gap in the understanding of the morphological transformations experienced by high ash and intertinite-rich coals undergoing conversion to char during atmospheric gasification. In this study, work has been carried to ... Read more
Fluidised bed gasification of high-ash South African coals: An experimental and modelling study

Author: Engelbrecht, AS ; North, Brian C ; Oboirien, BO ; Everson, RC ; Neomagus, HWPJ Date: Nov 2011 The gasification of two high-ash coals were studied using a pilot scale fluidised bed gasifier using oxygen enrich air and steam as the gasification agents. The results of the tests show that the fixed carbon conversion and calorific value ... Read more
Making the most of South Africa’s low-quality coal: Converting high-ash coal to fuel gas using bubbling fluidised bed gasifiers

Author: Engelbrecht, AD ; North, Brian C ; Oboirien, BO Date: 31 Aug 2010 South Africa has abundant resources of high-ash and other low-quality coals. The aim of this work is to investigate the possibility of using fluidised bed gasification technology to convert these coals into clean fuel gas. The fuel gas can ... Read more
Microwave-assisted synthesis of geopolymers from fluidised bed gasifier bottom ash

Author: Oboirien, BO ; North, Brian C ; Sadiku, ER Date: Sep 2013 Fluidised bed gasification (FBG) is a clean coal technology suitable for power and fuel generation from low grade coals. However, the resulting bottom ash presents some disposal challenges to the power plants and the environment. The production ... Read more
Study on the structure and gasification characteristics of selected South African bituminous coal in fluidised bed gasification

Author: Oboirien, BO ; Engelbrecht, AD ; North, Brian C ; Du Cann, VM ; Verryn, S ; Falcon, R Date: Oct 2009 The gasification characteristics of three South African bituminous coals were investigated in a bubbling fluidised bed reactor. The three coals are similar in rank, but two are inertinite-rich coals and the third has high vitrinite content. ... Read more
