Australian bituminous coal (Hoskisson) was gasified with oxygen and steam in a 0.4m diameter spouted bed reactor at atmospheric pressure and temperatures of 1050-I 170Β°C to produce medium calorific valuegas. High-ash agglomerates fell through the throat of the spouted bed under restricted gasificati

β¦ Synopsis
The defluidization behaviour of ash derived from Indian coal by combustion in a fluidized bed has been studied. Sintering temperatures for ash in several ranges of particle size were measured with a dilatometer. In agreement with the earlier work on other coals it was found that above the sintering temperature pairs of complementary, limiting values of fluidization velocity and bed temperatures exist which mark the onset of defluidization when the ash particles are heated in a fluidized bed. A linear relation wasobserved between bad temperatureand limiting defluidization velocity. Theconstants in the corresponding equations were calculated for two size ranges of particles.

Burnout times of high-ash coals in a fluidized bed were determined for coal panicle sizes ranging from 0.125 to 4 ram, over a temperature range of 973-1173 K and fluidization velocities varying from 3.7Umf to 6.2U,,f. The results show that the mode with which anthracite particles burn resembles that
