General Electric gasifier

The Advanced Gasification Combustion (AGC) project was developed by the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) and General Electric and Environmental Research Corporation (GE-EER), etc. The AGC process is considered to have three fluidized bed reactors. In reactor 1, coal is partly gasified with steam in the presence of a C02 sorbent. The remaining char together with the C02 sorbent is sent to reactor 2. In reactor 2, char is...

CGCC [Coal Gasification, Combined Cycle] A general name for processes that both gasify coal and produce electricity. One such process has been operated by Louisiana Gasification Technology, at Plaquemine, LA, since 1987. See also APAC. 

Fixed bed gasifiers are generally used for small-scale operation with gas engines, having an electrical output of about 80-500 kWe. They divide into updraft and downdraft gasifiers.
