The following are Gasification Major R&D Project Reports:

• CMC Bench Scale Material Test Plan Topical Report [PDF-506KB] (June 21, 2006) This test plan document describes the technical work to be performed at the Department of Energy research laboratories at Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Oak Ridge, TN and the National Energy Technology Laboratory materials research facility in Albany, OR.
• Conceptual Design of an Ultra-Dense Phase Injector and Feed System Topical Report [PDF-994KB] (Apr 2006) This document describes the technical work performed on the ultra-dense phase multi-element injector and feed system between May 2005 and Mar 2006.
• CANMET Gasifier Liner Coupon Material Topical Report [PDF-2.4MB] (Nov 2005)
  This test plan document describes the technical work to be performed by CANMET and Rocketdyne at CETC-O. The technical details in this test plan represent the bulk of work done under Task 1 after the design phase, from April through November of 2005, and is presented as the body of this Topical Report. It comprises the detailed test methods to be used in the testing of cooled ceramic coupons at CETC-O.
• Tampa Electric Integrated Gasification Combined-Cycle Project - Project Performance Summary [PDF-2.3MB] (June 2004) Tampa Electric Company successfully completed a five year demonstration of a 250-MWe integrated gasification combined-cycle power plant based on Texaco's pressurized, oxygen-blown, entrained flow gasifier. This project is part of DOE's Clean Coal Technology Demonstration Program related to coal use.
• Eastman Chemicals from Coal Complex [PDF-897KB] (Mar 2003)
  This Topical Report provides publicly available technical data on the Eastman chemicals-from-coal complex in Kingsport, including the removal of mercury within the gasification section. The chemicals-from-coal complex continues to be a commercially viable operation for the production of acetyl chemicals from coal.  The project involves the operation of a 260 short tons per day, or 80,000 gallons per day, methanol unit utilizing coal-derived syngas from Eastman’s integrated coal gasification facility.
  Other specific data on the operation of the Eastman guard bed to protect methanol synthesis catalyst and the wastewater treatment system are provided. Species of arsenic and sulfur from the Rectisol syngas clean-up plant are present at parts-per-billion by volume concentrations, and a catalyst guard bed has been in service to further reduce these concentrations prior to the introduction of the primary syngas feed (Balanced Gas) to either the fixed-bed methanol plant or the Liquid Phase Methanol Demonstration Unit.
• Removal of Trace Contaminants from Coal-Derived Synthesis Gas [PDF-3.6MB] (Mar 2003)
  This topical report examines the identification of potential catalyst poisons and their effects on catalyst performance, the selection of suitable adsorbents to be used in a fixed catalyst guard bed configuration for the removal of targeted catalyst poisons, and the implementation and evaluation of the performance of the adsorbents in the Liquid Phase Methanol Demonstration Unit.  The project involves the operation of an 80,000-gallons-per-day (260-short-tons-per-day (sT/D)) methanol unit utilizing coal-derived syngas from Eastman’s integrated coal gasification facility.
