Combined Coal Gasification and Methane Reforming for Production of Syngas in …

The concept of combining coal gasification and methane reforming for syngas production in a fluidized-bed reactor, as a means for utilization of both coal and coal-bed methane, was proposed and evaluated experimentally. Preliminary experiments were performed in a laboratory-scale fluidized-bed reactor operating at 1000 °C, using two Chinese coals: a bituminous coal (Coal A) and an anthrac…
