Advantages of the Shell Gasification Process The SGP process is a proven technology which is being utilised in a variety of commercial

applications around the world. The benefits to our customers can be summarised as: maximum reliability broad fuel flexibility optimum efficiency high operational flexibility broad product flexibility flexibility with regard to integration into existing and new plants excellent environmental performance standardisation based on years of experience. One criteria is essential in ensuring the profitability of the gasification units:

RELIAB IL IT Y.
SGPs optimum process availability and reliability is the result of more than 40 years experience in the design and operation of gasification units and a dedication to continuous technological developments. Key developments in the SGP process have resulted in high on-stream factors which are now routine in a variety of services. The optimised SGP reactor design allows relatively moderate process temperatures (1300 1350 C). The relatively low gasification temperature is accompanied by minimal heavy metal eutectic formation. There is also very little ... / 10soot formation and consequently there are fewer deposits on the refractory of the reactor and less fouling in the SEC. Another result of the moderate gasification temperature is the comparably low oxygen consumption. Furthermore, the superior efficiency of the SGP process results in a high CO content and a low CO 2 content.

The Shell gasification process offers several technical advantages. It helps provide a high syngas yield, which is provided by special burner and reactor designs that enable operation at low oxygen consumption and low soot formation. Key features include:

feed: high ash, sulphur content and viscosity; typically >2,600 Nm (CO + H2)/(t feedstock); and <1 mg soot/Nm in raw syngas. It also helps enhance thermal efficiency through the syngas
