Heat exchanger materials for fluidized bed coal combustors

Description: The 4500-h test in the FluiDyne AFBC tells us three things: (1) ferritic and austenitic superheater alloys perform well to approximately 590/sup 0/C (1100/sup 0/F), (2) high-temperature alloys can perform well at approximately 870/sup 0/C (1600/sup 0/F), and (3) they also may fail miserably at approximately 870/sup 0/C (1600/sup 0/F). Additional studies are clearly needed to develop a fundamental understanding of corrosion mechanisms in AFBC and to determine the envelope of safe operating condi… more

Kinetic studies on the sulfidation of iron by sulfur bearing low-Btu gases

Description: The use of a low-Btu gas as a reducing agent for iron oxide was shown to be favorable at temperatures of 800/sup 0/C or greater. Little benefit was seen in terms of increased reduction rates at higher pressures (up to 5 atmospheres) or in varying either the H/sub 2/ concentration or CO/CO/sub 2/ ratio, within the range of a low-Btu gas. Sulfidation was found to occur in reaction with iron and not iron oxide. It was found that to avoid contamination of the reduced iron, very low levels of H/sub … more

Fine particle clay catalysts for coal liquefaction

Description: The efficient production of environmentally acceptable distillate fuels requires catalysts for hydrogenation and cleavage of the coal macromolecules and removal of oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur heteroatoms. The goal of the proposed research is to develop new catalysts for the direct liquefaction of coal. This type of catalyst consists of fine clay particles that have been treated with reagents which form pillaring structures between the aluminosilicate layers of the clay. The pillars not only ho… more

The potential of modified type 310 stainless steel for advanced fossil energy applications

Description: An evaluation was undertaken to determine the potential of modified type 310 stainless steel for fossil energy applications. First, alloy performance criteria for components in several emerging technologies were identified. Then, a brief review of existing alloy technology was undertaken relative to performance criteria. Key issues were the tendency for type 310 stainless steel to embrittle due to the formation of intermetallic phases, the poor resistance of type 310 stainless steel to highly s… more

Characterization and utilization of hydrotreated products produced from the Whiterocks (Utah) tar sand bitumen-derived liquid

Description: The bitumen-derived liquid produced in a 4-inch diameter fluidized-bed reactor from the mined and crushed ore from the Whiterocks tar sand deposit has been hydrotreated in a fixed-bed reactor. The purpose was to determine the extent of upgrading as a function of process operating variable. A sulfided nickel-molybendum on alumina hydrodenitrogenation catalyst was used in all experiments. Moderately severe operating conditions were employed; that is, high reaction temperature (617--680 K) high re… more

Sulfidation of Cadmium at the Nanoscale

Description: We investigate the evolution of structures that result when spherical Cd nanoparticles of a few hundred nanometers in diameter react with dissolved molecular sulfur species in solution to form hollow CdS. Over a wide range of temperatures and concentrations, we find that rapid Cd diffusion through the growing CdS shell localizes the reaction front at the outermost CdS/S interface, leading to hollow particles when all the Cd is consumed. When we examine partially reacted particles, we find that … more

Diffusion Coatings for Corrosion-Resistant Components in Coal Gasification Systems

Description: Advanced electric power generation systems use a coal gasifier to convert coal to a gas rich in fuels such as H{sub 2} and CO. The gas stream contains impurities such as H{sub 2}S and HCl, which attack metal components of the coal gas train, causing plant downtime and increasing the cost of power generation. Corrosion-resistant coatings would improve plant availability and decrease maintenance costs, thus allowing the environmentally superior integrated-gasification-combined-cycle (IGCC) plants… more

Summary of research on hydrogen production from fossil fuels conducted at NETL

Description: In this presentation we will summarize the work performed at NETL on the production of hydrogen via partial oxidation/dry reforming of methane and catalytic decomposition of hydrogen sulfide. We have determined that high pressure resulted in greater carbon formation on the reforming catalysts, lower methane and CO2 conversions, as well as a H2/CO ratio. The results also showed that Rh/alumina catalyst is the most resistant toward carbon deposition both at lower and at higher pressures. We studi… more

Multi-dimensional modeling of atmospheric copper-sulfidation corrosion on non-planar substrates.

Description: This report documents the author's efforts in the deterministic modeling of copper-sulfidation corrosion on non-planar substrates such as diodes and electrical connectors. A new framework based on Goma was developed for multi-dimensional modeling of atmospheric copper-sulfidation corrosion on non-planar substrates. In this framework, the moving sulfidation front is explicitly tracked by treating the finite-element mesh as a pseudo solid with an arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian formulation and repe… more
