Go to the Gasification Technologies Council website, which has recent presentations on current plants in commercial operation. Also search the DOE-NETL website for reports on projects as Tampa Electric and Wabash IGCC projects. These are 250+ MW plants on base load operation. GOOGLE will also...

If vortices are a problem, a simple breaker of two baffles at 90 degrees attached to the inlet, projecting one pipe diameter (D)above and one D into the inlet has solved the problem for me. The portion above should be about two D wide. Klem

ROES, The FreeCalc linh has a reference to a Chem. Eng. article giving the basis which should fulfill your needs. Klem

You should look at Activated Alumina, Silica Gel and Molecular Sieves. All are used to dehydrate gases and liquids. Energy is still required to reactivate the bds, but should be less than a distillation column. Look for suppliers in CE Buyer Guide. Good hunting, Klem

liquid compressibility is covered in THE PHYSICS OF HIGH PRESSURE, by P. W. Bridgman. My copy is by Dover Publications. He gives compressibility data for many liquids. However his example calculation for ether has an error. the extensions from kg-cm to other sxpressions look OK but the...

Hydrogen burns without emitting CO2, but CO2 is emitted when it is made by steam reforming of HC's or coal gasification. Adding H2 to a fuel just shifts where the CO2 appears. Reducing CO2 puts you in the CO2 business if you absorb it, or reduces production if you lower it by cutting power. You...

You mentioned foaming parenthetically. I ran into a case in a kettle reboiler where we looked for foam on the lab bench, and found it "insignificant" under lab conditions. However in the plant it was a major problem, requiring changing operating pressure to vacuum conditions...
