IntroductionIntroductionIntroductionIntroduction• The work was carried out within the frame of strategic project "Development of

coal gasification technology for high-efficiency production of fuels and energy"g gy g y gy

• Using of CO2 during pressurized gasification in circulating fluidized bed Attractive method of CO2 management removed during conversion of fossil fuels – chemical

lirecycling. Reduction of consumption of hard coal and technical oxygen for the same gas production. Increasing efficiency and decreasing emission from the process. Residence time of particles in the reaction zone promoting Boudouard reaction. I it ” h „In situ” char. Filling a market gap for gasification rectors with a capacity of 50-150 MW. Increased reactor efficiency. Increase of conversion degree of coal as a result of pressure influence on the process kinetics.

ConclusionsConclusionsConclusionsConclusions

• Developed model coresponds to changes in processDeveloped model coresponds to changes in processparameters and give results with a similar degree ofagreement for all three tests.

• The gas composition at the gasifier outlet using CPFDmodel is comparable with experimental data. Therelative error of mol fraction is lower than 20%.

• The highest temperature (Test1) gives the highestd ti f i l d t (CO H )production of crucial gaseous products (CO, H2).

• The three-dimensional models and simulations providea promising way to simulate the coal gasification ina promising way to simulate the coal gasification influidized beds.
