Korea Electric Power Research Institute (KEPRI) has developed a compact coal-gasification system to accumulate our experiment skills. The combustion furnace for residual oil was modified as a small size coal gasifier. Recently, coal feeding system was also upgraded to control coal feed rate more accurately. Our research group has conducted several experiments to find out the effect of $O_2$/coal ratio on the cold gas efficiency. Furthermore, the effect of $N_2$/coal ratio on the transport characteristics was also studied. According to the calculation of heat and mass balance, the cold gas efficiency was estimated to the maximum at $O_2$/coal ratio of around 0.73. But small size gasifier such as ours required higher value of $O_2$/coal ratio than that of the theoretical estimation. On the optimal $N_2$/coal ratio, we noticed that the coal feed rate was intimately related with the transporting gas pressure and the pipe diameter.

Methane is the cleanest fuel and supplies by many distributed type: liquefaction natural gas (LNG), compressed natural gas (CNG), and pipeline natural gas (PNG). Natural gas is mainly composed by methane and has been discovered in the oil and gas fields. Coal bed methane (CBM) is also one of them which reserved in coalbed. This significant new energy sources has emerge to convert an energy source, hydrogen and hydrogen-driven chemicals. For this CBM, this paper was written to analyze the geological analysis and reserves in Mongolian Tavan Tolgoi CBM coal mine and to examine the application field. This paper is mainly a preliminary feasibility report analyzing the business of Tavan Tolgoi CBM and its exploitable gas.

The IGCC (Integrated gasification combined cycle) is known for one of the highest efficiency and the lowest emitting coal fueled power generating technologies. As the core technology of this system is the gasifier to make the efficiency and the continuous operation time increase, the research about different coal's gasification has been conducted. Our research group had set-up the coal gasifier for the pilot test to study the effect of different coals-Shenhua and Adaro coal- on gasification characteristics. Gasification conditions like temperature and pressure were controlled at a fixed condition and coal feed rate was also controlled 30 kg/h to retain the constant experimental condition. Through this study we found effects of coal composition and $O_2$/coal ratio on the cold gas efficiency, carbon conversion rate. The compounds of coal like carbon and ash make the performance of gasifier change. And carbon conversion rate was decreased with reduced $O_2$/coal ratio. The optical $O_2$/coal ratio is 0.8 for the highest cold gas efficiency approximately. At those operating conditions, the higher coal has the C/H ratio, the lower syn-gas has the $H_2$/CO ratio.

에너지 보안의 위기를 타파하기 위한 가장 많은 관심을 가지고 있는 것 중 하나가 지중 속 매장되어 있는 석탄이다. 본 연구에서는 지중에서 석탄을 직접 채굴을 하지 않고 지중 내 석탄 가스화를 직접 진행할 수 있는 지중 석탄가스화 공정에 대하여 화학 반응 공정 모사를 진행하였다. 본 연구는 1980년대 말에 미국의 Rocky Mountain 1 지중 석탄가스화 프로젝트를 참고로 진행을 하여 기본 모델을 완성하였다. 그리고 산화제 주입조건에 따른 민감도 분석을 통하여 합성가스의 조성 결과를 확인하였다. 반응 모델은 건조, 열분해, 촤 가스화로 나누어 모델이 구현되었고 실제 실험값에서의 생산된 가스량, 가스화 된 탄소량, 가스 수율 등의 값으로 결과를 확인하였다.

This paper presents the applicability of low caloric synthetic gas from coal gasification to a gas engine system. A commercial LPG engine is modified to use the low caloric synthetic gas from coal gasification as the gas engine fuel. The modification is focused on the fuel supplying system, which includes air flowrate adjusting orifice, gas mixer, vaporizer, preheater, regulators, and fuel tank. The electrical system and others for the alternative fuel are also redesigned and replaced. From the results of engine performance data, we have demonstrated that the engine modified by using coal gasification gas is well operated from idle to wide open throttle conditions although the engine power is somewhat reduced relative to LPG fueled engine. This paper addresses the need to determine the practical potential for such a concept and to identify further research and development efforts that may be necessary.

Gasification converts coal and other feedstocks into a very clean and usable gas, called syngas, that can be used to produce a wide variety products such as electricity, chemicals, transports fuels, hydrogen production, etc. This paper was studied the gasification performance effects with the variation of the gasification operating parameters such as the feeding amounts of oxygen, steam and coal. When $O_2/coal$ ratio was below 0.8, $H_2$ mole % was increased as increasing $O_2/coal$ ratio. CO mole % was increased when $O_2/coal$ ratio was below 1.2 as increasing the $O_2/coal$ ratio. As increasing steam/coal ratio, $H_2$ mole %was increased and CO mole % was decreased. The $O_2/coal$ and steam/coal ratio was $0.8{\sim}0.9$ and $0.0{\sim}0.4$, respectively, to keep the proper gasification condition that the gasifier temperature was $1300^{\circ}C{\sim}1450^{\circ}C$ and the cold gas efficiency was over 76%.

Rockburst is becoming more serious in Chinese coal mine. One of the effective methods to control rockburst is blasting. In the paper, we monitored and analyzed the blasting waves at different blast center distances by the Hilbert-Huang transform (HHT) in a coal mine. Results show that with the increase of blast center distance, the main frequency and amplitude of blasting waves show the decreasing trend. The attenuation of blasting waves is slower in the near blast field (10-75 m), compared with the far blast field (75-230 m). Besides, the frequency superposition phenomenon aggravates in the far field. A majority of the blasting waves energy at different blast center distances is concentrated around the IMF components 1-3. The instantaneous energy peak shows attenuation trend with the blast center distance increase, there are two obvious energy peaks in the near blast field (10-75 m), the energy spectrum appears "fat", and the total energy is greater. By contrast, there is only an energy peak in the far blast field, the energy spectrum is "thin", and the total energy is lesser. The HHT three dimensional spectrum shows that the wave energy accumulates in the time and frequency with the increasing of blast center distance.

석탄가스화는 석탄을 불완전 연소하여 수소와 일산화탄소로 이루어진 합성가스를 생성하는 공정이다. 기 존 석탄 연소와 달리 질소 산화물이나 황 산화물이 배출되지 않고 미세먼지 발생량이 적어 석탄을 청정하게 이용할 수 있으며 합성가스를 통해 부가적인 화학물질을 생산할 수 있다. 석탄가스화는 합성가스 생산방식에 따라 석탄가스화복합화력발전(Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle, IGCC), 플라즈마 석탄가스화, 지하석탄 가스화(Underground Coal Gasification, UCG)로 분류된다. 최근에는 합성가스의 수소를 활용하기 위하여 일산화탄소를 수소로 전환하는 수성가스전환(Water Gas Shift, WGS) 반응기와 이산화탄소를 포집하는 설비를 결합하는 사례가 늘고 있다. 본 연구에서는 석탄가스화와 합성가스를 이용한 수소 생산 방법에 대하여 정리하였으며 현재 진행되고 있는 석탄가스화를 이용한 수소 생산 프로젝트를 조사하였다.

Coal seam gas (CSG) production involves extracting methane from coal seams with ground water which is so called a primary by-product of this process, and is often rich in salts and other constituents. The predicted large volume and variable quality of this water make water management a topic associated with CSG production. In the past, the amount of this water used to be pumped into the vacant aquifer, or into the river during the life of individual production wells. Australian government make a strategies for management and beneficial use of the water. From this point of view, a detailed assessment has not been undertaken, it is necessary for water resource production to analysis the "Coal Seam Gas Water (CSG Water) Management Policy Study" published in Queensland, Australia.

Entrained coal gasification tests with Datong coal were performed to assess the influence of oxygen/coal ration and pressure. When gasification condition in oxygen/coal ratio has changed from 0.5 to 1.0, optimal gasification condition from low pressure runs was oxygen/coal ratio of approximately 0.9 where CO was produced about 40% and H, about 20%. Under the pressure condition of 12-14 atmospheres, optimal oxygen/coal ratio value was in the region of 0.6 where CO was produced about 55% and H2about 25%. From these results, it was found that the oxygen/ coal ratio for the maximum production of CO and H, was decreasing with the increase in gasifier pressure and also, with increasing oxygen content, carbon conversion was increased. For the Chinese Datong coal, cold gas efficiency was in the range of 40-80%.
