As a part of the government renewable energy policy, KOWEPO is constructing 300MW IGCC plant in Taean. IGCC plant consists of gasification block, air separation unit and power block, which performance test is separately conducted. Overall performance test for IGCC plant is peformed to comply with ASME PTC 46. Major factors affected on the overall efficiency for IGCC plant are external conditions, each block performance(gasification, ASU, power block), water/steam integration and air integration. Performance parameters of IGCC plant are cold gas efficiency, oxygen consumption, sensible heat recovery of syngas cooler for gasification block and purity of oxygen, flow amount of oxygen and nitrogen, power consumption for air separation unit and steam/water integration among the each block. The gas turbine capacity applied to the IGCC plant is 20 percent higher than NGCC gas turbine due to the low caloric heating value of syngas, therefor it is possible to utilize air integration between gas turbine and air separation unit to improve overall efficiency of the IGCC plant and there is a little impact on the ambient condition. It is very important to optimize the air integration design with consideration to the optimized integration ratio and the reliable operation. Optimized steam/water integration between power block and gasification block can improve overall efficiency of IGCC plant where the optimized heat recovery from gasification block should be considered. Finally, It is possibile to achieve the target efficiency above 42 percent(HHV, Net) for 300MW Taean IGCC plant by optimized design and integration.

The LNG liquefaction plant which have a higher value-added business in the LNG value chain takes about 35% of total cost. Liquefaction process is core technology of liquefaction plant. Almost all of cost which was consumed from the liquefaction plant, using for operation energy of liquefaction process. The cost can be reduced by increasing efficiency of liquefaction cycle. C3MR(propane pre-cooled, mixed refrigerant cycle) which liquefies NG using propane and MR cycle has the high efficiency, so C3MR is mostly used liquefaction process in LNG industry. In this study, process simulation and analysis were performed for C3MR process. C3MR process variables were found through this simulation and analysis, and then the process optimization was performed. It is considered that the results of process analysis, process variables and process optimization study can be utilized to develope new liquefaction process.

분류층 석탄가스화기에서 슬래그의 원활한 배출은 가스화 플랜트 운전 및 성능에 중대한 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려져 있다. 가스화기의 운전 온도에서 슬래그 점도가 일정수준 이상인 경우에는 가스화기 하부 슬래그 배출구 막힘 현상을, 일정 수준 이하일 경우에는 Membrane wall의 slag 두께가 얇아져 가스화기 수냉벽에 열적 악영향을 미친다. 가스화기의 안정적인 운전을 위한 석탄 선정 시, 석탄 슬래그의 용융온도 및 점도의 파악이 중요하다. 일반적으로 석탄슬래그의 용융온도는 ASTM D-1857 절차에 따른 환원분위기에서의 회융유온도(FT)측정을 통해, 점도는 고온점도측정 실험을 통해 분석하고 있다. 이런 실험적인 분석방법은 다양한 슬래그조성 및 온도 변화에 따른 영향을 살펴보기에는 많은 시간과 비용이 발생하므로 슬래그조성 및 온도 변화에 따른 용융온도 및 점도 예측이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 200여 탄종의 회용유점 측정 결과와 FactSage에서 예측되는 슬래그 결정상 생성 및 회용유점(FT)에서의 고체분율과의 상관관계를 분석하였다. 이를 바탕으로 다양한 Ash 조성(SiO2, Al2O3, Fe2O3, CaO)에 대한 회용유점(FT)을 예측할 수 있는 프로그램을 개발하였다. 또한 50여 탄종의 슬래그 점도 측정 결과를 Facsage에서 예측되는 결정상 종류 및 Ash 조성을 기준으로 분류하였다. 결정상 종류 및 Ash 조성을 기준으로 기존 슬래그점도예측모델를 활용하여 보다 정확한 슬래그 점도 예측 프로세스를 개발하였다. 본 연구 결과는 플랜트 운전 결과 검증을 통하여 석탄 가스화 플랜트에 적합한 석탄의 선정, 혼탄 비율 및 첨가제 투입량 결정을 위해 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

The pre-treatment of natural gas to remove $H_2S$ and $CO_2$ before liquefaction in natural gas processing is required, and amine-based absorption processes are widely used in gas processing. The current study aims to model amine-based absorption process and to find cost-effective design through systematic analysis of energy systems, together with column design. Different design options for absorber and stripper are investigated in a holistic manner, and heat integration technique has been applied to investigate how design of columns is interacted with energy efficiency for the pre-treatment process considered. Case study has been presented to demonstrate the applicability of heat integration method for improving energy efficiency in practice.

In accordance with global decarbonization, optimization and productivity improvement using digital twin are being sought, and software development for optimizing ship and marine energy operation is accelerating by selecting digital twin as a future core technology. In order to reduce the operating cost of ships and strengthen the competitiveness of the shipbuilding industry due to the international strengthening of regulations on carbon emissions, it is necessary to predict the carbon emission of ships in advance and provide a carbon reduction operation solution. A plan was carried out for the development of open digital platform technology and the establishment of an environment to support the securing of carbon transparency of the ship and offshore system.

We are to evaluate the stabilization technology of actual biogas plant facilities, which is operating currently. It describes the traits of the consistent facilities of mesophilic anaerobic digestion using Unison Biogas plant Recovery system(UBR). Also the economical efficiency is examined with the electric power sales earnings and applying the deserted heating by generating electric power, which is generated by operated combined heat and power using biogas produced by mesophilic anaerobic digestion. We have generated the 481,113kw for electric power and 1,376Gcal for thermal energy simultaneously. If these electric power and thermal energy are converted into diesel, we can achieve savings equal to 114,300L, and 152,109L in the quantity of heat. Finally, if CDM, RPS, liquid fertilizer sales business, etc. is activated, the earnings will be expected to improve dramatically and is considered to contribute a drop of the greenhouse gas.

The present study discussed the thermodynamic analysis of the hydrogen liquefaction process to build a hydrogen liquefaction pilot plant with a small capacity (0.5 ton/day). A 2-stage Brayton cycle utilizing LNG/LN2 cold energy was suggested to be built in Korea for the hydrogen liquefaction pilot plant with a small capacity. Thermodynamic analysis on the effect of various variables on the efficiency of hydrogen liquefaction process was performed. As a result, the CASE in which the ortho-para conversion catalyst was infiltrated inside the heat exchanger showed the best process efficiency. Finally, thermodynamic analysis was performed on the effect of turbo expander compression ratio on the hydrogen liquefaction process and it was confirmed that an optimal turbo expander compression ratio exists.
