Hot dry rock geothermal energy development program: Annual operating plan, fiscal year 1989

Description: With completion of the repairs of EE-2 wellbore in FY88, the major effort in FY89 will be directed toward the remaining preparations for the Long-Term Flow Test (LTFT) now scheduled to begin in September 1990. Procurement of components and equipment and installation of the surface system will continue through this and the next fiscal year to be ready for the LTFT in September 1990. Reservoir experiments will consist of pressurization and flow tests to establish further characteristics of the Ph… more

Safe thickness for D1 dissolver with 1500 GM plutonium

Description: There is some concern that the FB-Line D1 dissolver may have been pressurized above the liquid head pressure by a reaction that occurred in the dissolver. The D1 Pu limit of 8.8 kg is based on a tank with an inner slab thickness of 3.34 inches and a wall thickness of 0.40 inches for a total slab thickness of 4.14 inches. When the incident occurred there was less than 1,500 gm Pu (1,323 gm) in the dissolver. Some calculations were made to determine the safe slab thickness for 1,500 gm Pu in the … more

Development of an advanced, continuous mild gasification process for the production of co-products. Quarterly technical progress report, April--June 1988

Description: The Department of Energy is investigating a process concept called Mild Gasification in which rapid devolatilization of coal under mild conditions of temperature and pressure would yield three product slates: a low- or medium-BTU gas, a valuable hydrocarbon condensate, and a reactive char. The ongoing objective of this program is to develop a continuous mild gasification process which will produce a product mix that optimizes process economics. In order to provide the incentive for private indu… more
