Carbon conversion rate of Texaco gasifiers
Thread Content
What was the carbon conversion rate of the Texaco gasifier used by our predecessors in the chemical industry? How to calculate
Find a book to read; there are two algorithms, one based on raw gas and the other based on slag.
Since the analysis of residual carbon in the coarse and fine slag is not very accurate, most facilities calculate the carbon conversion rate based on the carbon content in the crude gas.
Count both and see if it can provide confirmation
There is no information on this topic; could you tell me something about it?
The carbon content in the gas divided by the total carbon content of the coal is the carbon conversion rate; this is how we usually calculate it. I hope this is helpful.
This is how it’s generally calculated these days; no matter how carbon in the slag is analyzed, the results aren’t accurate
The flow meter for raw coal gas (on a wet basis) is used to calculate the water vapor ratio through partial pressures, thereby determining the flow rate on a dry basis; this can be calculated based on gas analysis
The carbon content in the gas is calculated using the pressure and temperature of the raw gas main before the inlet transformation, together with the water vapor ratio and the effective gas content; this value is then divided by the carbon content in the raw coal. Using the carbon content of coarse and fine slag results in large calculation errors.
