The paper studied coal gasification and purification within integrated gasification fuel cell (IGFC) systems, focusing on how coal gasification and purification processes, fuel cells, and other components interact and how pollutants form. Using experiments and modeling of coal gasification (including testing ultrafine coal particles, ash melting characteristics, and validating the Miura-Maki model) plus an elevated temperature/pressure swing adsorption setup for simultaneous H2S and CO2 removal, the authors report that the Miura-Maki model fit experimental DTG data well and that an “8-6-1” cycle removed CO2 and H2S with removal rates over 99.9%; they also evaluated transition metal oxides for mercury removal in coal-syngas. A key caveat is that the work is presented as a preprint that has not been peer reviewed. This paper does not explicitly discuss endometriosis or adenomyosis; it was included in the corpus via a keyword match in the upstream search index.

Abstract

Coal-fired power generation is the main source of CO 2 emission in China. To solve the problems of declined efficiency and increased costs caused by CO 2 capture in coal-fired power systems, an integrated gasification fuel cell (IGFC) power generation technology was developed. The interaction mechanisms among coal gasification and purification, fuel cell and other components are further studied for IGFCs. Towards the direction of coal gasification and purification, we studied gasification reaction characteristics of ultrafine coal particles, ash melting characteristics and their effects on coal gasification reactions, the formation mechanism of pollutants. We further develop an elevated temperature/pressure swing adsorption rig for simultaneous H 2 S and CO 2 removals. The results show the validity of the Miura-Maki model to describe the gasification of Shenhua bituminous coal with a good fit between the predicted DTG curves and experimental data. The designed 8-6-1 cycle procedure can effectively remove CO 2 and H 2 S simultaneously with removal rate over 99.9%. In addition, transition metal oxides used as mercury removal adsorbents in coal gasified syngas were shown with great potential. The techniques presented in this paper can improve the gasification efficiency and reduce the formation of pollutants in IGFCs.

Text is read by the "Ask this paper" AI Q&A widget below. Extraction quality varies by source — PMC NXML preserves structure cleanly, OA-HTML may include some navigation residue, and OA-PDF can have broken hyphenation. The publisher copy (via DOI) is the canonical version.

My notes (saved in your browser only)

Ask this paper AI returns verbatim quotes from the full text · source: preprint-html

Answers must be backed by verbatim quotes from this paper's full text. Hallucinated quotes are dropped automatically; if no verbatim passage answers the question, we say so. How this works

Citation neighborhood (no data yet)

We don't have any in-corpus citations linked to this paper yet. The paper's references may be in our DB but unresolved to ``paper_id`` (resolution happens at ingest when the cited DOI matches a row we already have). Run the cross-source citation reconcile pass to retry.
