Grant Description: Area of Interest 3 - Optimization of the Fischer-Tropsch (FT) and Water-Gas-Shift (WGS) Processes (DE-PS26-08NT00258-03): Current commercial catalysts used in WGS processes and FT synthesis are intrinsically very sensitive to small amounts of poisons. In commercial operation, catalysts are replaced or regenerated after a certain operational period. The specification of syngas cleaning is therefore based on economic considerations: investment in gas cleaning versus accepting decreasing production due to poisoning of the catalyst. This activity attempts to quantify the effects on WGS and FT catalysts from poisons that may result from EF gasification of coal/biomass mixtures.
