Non-catalytic reforming test results using crude Coke Oven Gas generated from operating three coke ovens

Abstract

The research and development have been performed to study the non-catalytic reforming technology of crude coke oven gas (COG) using heat of that gas and injection of oxygen since fiscal 2006. This report shows the test results that were performed using crude COG generated from operating three coke ovens in 2009. As the result, the optimum reforming condition was specified and performance target value of the gas amplification ratio over 2.0 and the optimum gas composition of material gases for methanol production were successfully obtained.
