Description:
The report gives results of tests of a Rectisol acid gas removal unit at a Texaco refinery. The primary goal was to provide a data base for evaluation of Rectisol performance in entrained coal gasification applications. This Rectisol unit processes gases from the partial oxidation of oil by the Texaco synthesis gas generation process. A secondary goal was to validate sampling/analytical methods for constituents such as HCN and NH3 which were expected to be present at very low levels in the gas samples. Data are evaluated from the standpoint of differences in coal vs. oil applications and/or where only part of the gas is shifted.
