In this study, lots of methods have been studing to utilize energy and decrease contaminated effluents. There has been great progress on IGCC (Integrated gasification combined cycle) to reduce thermal energy losses. The following results have been conducted from desulfurization experiments using waste shell to remove H$_2$S. According to TGA results, temperature had influenced on H$_2$S removal efficiency. As desulfurization temperature increased, desulfurization efficiency increased. Also, maximum desulfurization efficiency was observed at 80$0^{\circ}C$. Desulfurization was related to calcination temperature. Considering temperature ranges of exhausted gas from hot gas gasification equipment were 400~80$0^{\circ}C$. Thus, desulfurization efficiency would be increased desulfurization temperature situation at highly. Experiments by TGA showed that particle size of sorbents had influenced on desulfurization capacity. Maximum desulfurization capacity was observed at 0.631 mm for oyster and clam. Rest of sorbents showed similar capacity within 0.171~0.335 mm particle size range. So, particle size would be considered. When would be used waste shells as IGCC sorbents. According to the results about desulfurization capacity by TGA, oyster had the best desulfurization capacity among limestone and waste shell. We would be identify to substituted oyster for existing sorbents

Integration methods of a Gas Turbine and a Air Separation Unit have a potential to improve plant performance and cost of IFCC. Several studies on those integrations schemes were carried out. Then some of the methods were accually in commercial plants. Thus paper reviewed the integration schemes of a Gas Turbine and a Air Separation Unit. In order to compare the plant performance of IGCC with each scheme, simulation model was developed for IGCC power cycle with Texaco Quench gasification process. The simulation results showed that the thermal efficiency of the plant was appeared to be the best when all of the air consumption required for Air Separation Unit was supplied from the Gas Turbine and the net plant power output was maximized when 75% of the total ASU an requirement was supplied from Gas Turbine.

In this study, to suggest an efficient method of using coal gasification slag(CGS), a byproduct from integrated gasification combined cycle(IGCC), as a combined fine aggregate for concrete mixture, the diverse performances of concrete mixtures with combined fine aggregates of CGS, river sand, and crushed sand were evaluated. Additionally, using CGS, the reduction of the hydration heat and the strength developing performance were analyzed to provide a method for reducing the heat of hydration of mass concrete by using combined fine aggregate with CGS and replacing fly ash with cement. The results of the study can be summarized as follows: as a method of recycling CGS from IGCC as concrete fine aggregate, a combination of CGS with crushed sand offers advantages for the concrete mixture. Additionally, when the CGS combined aggregate is used with low-heat-mix designed concrete with fly ash, it has the synergistic effect of reducing the hydration heat of mass concrete compared to the low-heat-designed concrete mixture currently in wide use.

The syngas produced from coal gasification is cooled down for gas cleaning by a syngas cooler that produces steam. Due to the presence of fly slag in the syngas, erosion, slagging and corrosion especially in the upper part of the syngas cooler may cause major operational problems. This study investigates the flow, heat transfer and particle behaviors in the syngas cooler of a 300MWe IGCC plant by using computational fluid dynamics. For various operational loads and geometry, the gas and particle flows directly impinged on the wall opposite to the syngas inlet, which may lead to erosion of the membrane wall. In the evaporate channels inside the syngas cololr, the particle flows were concentrated more on the outer channel where slagging becomes more serious. The heat transfer to the wall was mainly by convection which was larger on the side wall below the inlet level.

Coal is one of the most abundant and cheapest energy sources in the earth, but its typical combustion product, $CO_2$, is related with serious recent environmental issues such as global warming. The Integrated Coal Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) with $CO_2$ sequestration is one of the most promising options to produce electricity using a relatively cheap fuel (coal) with minimum impact on environment. In IGCC power generation systems, some chemical reactions are required to gasify coal to produce syngases such as $H_2$ and CO, which would be burnt in the combustor to produce heat for power generation, with a penalty of additional energy consumption. In this paper, several chemical reactions for the gasification of coal are considered and their characteristics are investigated.

This study examines the performance of pretreatment process system as the initial construction stage of the pretreatment process system to use CGS, a by-product generated in IGCC, as a concrete fine aggregate of construction materials. The process undergoes a grinding process capable of grinding to a predetermined particle size during primary grinding and a sorting plant through sieve grading of 2.5 mm or less for particle size correction. Afterwards, it is hoped that the use of coal gasification slag of Korean IGCC as a fine aggregate for concrete will be distributed and expanded by producing quality-improved CGS fine aggregate using water as a medium for removing impurities and particulates.

Integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) power plants not only emit less greenhouse gases and air pollutants than conventional coal-fired power plants, but also use low-price, low-quality, and internationally easily procurable coal. Thus we can benefit from safeguarding energy security through building the IGCC power plant. This paper attempts to value the benefits of energy security enhanced by IGCC power plant. To this end, we report here the results from a contingent valuation survey of randomly selected 600 households. A combination of a double-bounded model and a spike model is applied for the purpose of increasing statistical efficiency and dealing with zero(0) willingness to pay data, respectively. The results show that the respondents are additionally willing to pay 6.05 won for 1kWh of electricity generated from IGCC power plant. In other words, the benefits from safeguarding energy security through building the IGCC power plant are 6.05 won per kWh. Given that the expected amount of generation from the Taean IGCC power plant that is scheduled to be built in late 2015 is 2.27 TWh per year, the benefits are estimated to be 13.74 billion won per year.

IGCC(Integrated Coal Gasification and Combined Cycle) plants can be among the most advanced and environmental systems for electric energy generation from various feed stocks and is becoming more and more popular in new power generation fields. In this work, the performance of IGCC plants employing Shell gasification technology and a GE 7FB gas turbine engine was simulated using IPSEpro open-equation modeling environment for different operating conditions. Performance analyses and comparisons of all operating cases were performed based on the design cases. Discussions were focused on gas composition, syngas production rate and overall performance. The validation of key steady-state performance values calculated from the process models were compared with values from the provided heat and material balances for Shell coal gasification technology. The key values included in the validation included the inlet coal flow rate; the mass flow rate, heating value, and composition of major gas species (CO, H2, CH4, H2O, CO2, H2S, N2, Ar) for the syngas exiting the gasifier island; and the HP and MP steam flows exiting the gasifier island.
