With current real economic growth of more than 10% per year, the Chinese energy consumption is rapidly increasing. Coal supply consists of the vast majority of China's total energy consumption requirements in 2008. China, the largest energy consumer, is expected to be heavily dependent on coal for future power generation, too (IEA,2009). A growing concern on global warming, on the other hand, drives Chinese government to declare her commitment to the reduction of CO2 emission by 2020. In this paper, China's energy market is examined for the current and future primary energy mix. Coal is found to be the biggest part accounting for 68.7% of total primary energy consumption while coal-fired power accounts for over 80% of the total power generation. The importance of Clean Coal Technology is being discussed based on the findings of the importance of coal in China's economy and its sustainable development. Among the technologies involved, a brief investigation of IGCC(Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle) technology with a review on current IGCC projects in China are provided from the perspective of environmental benefits. Studies on regional Chinese power market is also conducted. It is found that the regulated power tariff in electricity system makes the power suppliers suffer from financial loss and changes in the electricity price system is under serious consideration by Chinese government. Even though Chinese power market system causes difficulties of commercialization for IGCC technology, the potential benefits will be high due to China's huge requirements of power generating capacity and its heavy reliance on coal if the electricity price system can be changed smoothly.

최근의 에너지 기술 개발 동향 중의 하나로서 화석에너지를 고청정 기술로 활용하는 것이며 대표적인 기술로 석탄가스화 기술을 들 수 있다. 석탄가스화 기술은 IGCC, 합성원유 및 합성천연가스 생산, 메탄올 또는 DME 등의 화학원료 생산 등에 적용할 수 있으므로 여러 선진 기술사들이 보다 진보된 기술을 개발하고 있으며 시장 선점을 위하여 다양한 노력을 기울이고 있다. 현재 미국과 유럽뿐만 아니라 이웃나라인 일본과 중국에서도 수천톤/일급의 대형화 기술의 개발을 거의 완료한 단계이다. 반면에 석탄에너지 활용이 필수적인 우리나라의 경우 아직 소규모 플랜트를 활용한 요소기술 개발에 머물러 있으므로 향후 이 분야에 대한 기술 개발에 많은 관심을 가져야 한다고 판단된다. 이에 본고에서는 석탄가스화 기술에 관한 전문 기술 교류의 컨퍼런스로서 가장 최근에 개최된 '2010 가스화 기술 컨퍼런스'에서 주요 기술 보유 업체에서 발표한 자료를 중심으로 하여 석탄가스화 기술 개발 동향 및 이들 업체들의 시장 선점을 위한 상업화 전개 동향을 살펴보았다.

본 연구는 낮은 회 성분의 함량과 높은 발열량의 특성을 지닌 초청정 석탄의 촤 반응율 특성을 알아보았다. 실험은 DTF(Drop Tube Furnace)를 통해서 다양한 온도조건 하에 산소의 분율을 바꾸어가며 수행하였다. 촤 반응률을 도출하기 위하여 FT-IR을 통해 배기가스(CO, $CO_2$)를 측정하였으며, 이색온도계를 통하여서 입자 온도를 측정하였다. 또한, Arrhenius 경험식을 토대로 초청정 석탄 촤의 활성화 에너지와 빈도인자를 도출하였다. 결과는 초청정 석탄 촤의 반응특성은 온도와 산소 분율이 높아질수록 뚜렷한 증가를 보였고, 초청정 석탄 촤의 활성화 에너지는 역청탄의 수치와 비슷한 값을 보임을 알 수 있었다.

Oxy-gasification or oxygen-blown gasification, enables a clean and efficient use of coal and opens a promising way to CO2 capture. The coal gasification process of a slurry feed type, entrained-flow coal gasifier was numerically predicted in this paper. The purposes of this study are to develop an evaluation technique for design and performance optimization of coal gasifiers using a numerical simulation technique, and to confirm the validity of the model. By dividing the complicated coal gasification process into several simplified stages such as slurry evaporation, coal devolatilization, mixture fraction model and two-phase reactions coupled with turbulent flow and two-phase heat transfer, a comprehensive numerical model was constructed to simulate the coal gasification process. The influence of turbulence on the gas properties was taken into account by the PDF (Probability Density Function) model. A numerical simulation with the coal gasification model is performed on the Conoco-Philips type gasifier for IGCC plant. Gas temperature distribution and product gas composition are also presented. Numerical computations were performed to assess the effect of variation in oxygen to coal ratio and steam to coal ratio on reactive flow field. The concentration of major products, CO and H2 were calculated with varying oxygen to coal ratio (0.2-1.5) and steam to coal ratio(0.3-0.7). To verify the validity of predictions, predicted values of CO and H2 concentrations at the exit of the gasifier were compared with previous work of the same geometry and operating points. Predictions showed that the CO and H2 concentration increased gradually to its maximum value with increasing oxygen-coal and hydrogen-coal ratio and decreased. When the oxygen-coal ratio was between 0.8 and 1.2, and the steam-coal ratio was between 0.4 and 0.5, high values of CO and H2 were obtained. This study also deals with the comparison of CFD (Computational Flow Dynamics) and STATNJAN results which consider the objective gasifier as chemical equilibrium to know the effect of flow on objective gasifier compared to equilibrium. This study makes objective gasifier divided into a few ranges to study the evolution of the gasification locally. By this method, we can find that there are characteristics in the each scope divided.

A 1 : 20 laboratory scale test rig of a 200 MW tangentially fired boiler is built up with completely simulated structures such as platen heaters and burners. Iso-thermal turbulent flow in the boiler is mapped by 3-D PDA (Particle Dynamic Analyzer). The 3-D numerical models for the same case are proposed based on the solution of к-$\varepsilon$ model closed RANS (Reynolds time-Averaged Navier-Stokes) equations, which are written in the framework of general coordinates and discretized in the corresponding body-fitted meshes. Not only are the grid lines arranged to fit the inner/outer boundaries. but also to align with the streamlines to the best possibility in order to reduce the NDE (numerical diffusion errors). Extensive comparisons of profiles of mean velocities are carried out between experiment and calculation. Predicted velocities in burner region were quantitatively similar with measured ones, while those in other area have same tendency with experimental counterpart.

Three new granular absorbents were prepared from calcium hydroxide, and applied to an FGD process with internal circulation. The aim of the study was finding the most efficient of the these three applied absorbents for the $SO_2$ removal at high flue gas temperatures. The absorbent is fed to the testing unit at high operation temperature and fluidized inside the FGD system where the sorbent particles react with the $SO_2$ gas. The rate of $SO_2$ decomposition was high in C-type absorbent which had the large surface area. De-SOx characteristics of the current absorbents appeared to be similar to the other conventional agents in this fluidized bed combustor. In particular, the optimum de-SOx condition could be achieved at high mole ratios of Ca to S which can reduce the residual $SO_2$.

Flow mixing and pressure drop characteristics for marine selective catalytic reduction applications were investigated numerically to develop an efficient static mixer. Two different mixers, line- and swirl-type, were considered. The effect of vane angles on the relative intensity, uniformity index, and pressure drop was investigated in a swirl-type mixer; these parameters are dramatically affected by the mixer geometry. The presence of a mixer, regardless of the mixer type, led to an improvement of approximately 20% in the mixing performance behind the mixer in comparison to not having a mixer. In particular, there was a tradeoff relationship between the uniformity and the pressure drop. Considering the mixing performance and the pressure drop, the swirl-type mixer was more suitable than the line-type mixer in this study.

폐석탄광산 주변 농경지의 주요 토양오염물질은 비소이며, 폐금속광산과는 달리 그 오염수준이 관련 환경기준을 경미하게 초과하는 특성을 가진다. 이에 선행연구에서는 폐석탄광산 농경지의 토양개량·복원사업(안정화 처리 및 복토층 조성) 시 복토층 두께를 기존 40 cm에서 20 cm 두께로 낮추는 방안의 적용성을 실내 포트실험으로 확인한 바 있다. 금번 후속연구에서는 본 방안을 실제 농경지에서 벼 재배를 통해 실증하였다. 4개월이 넘는 벼 재배기간 중 쌀알로 전이된 비소의 농도는 20 cm 두께의 복토 시 44% 이상의 전이감소율을 보였다. 특히 오염된 원지반을 안정화 처리한 후 복토한 경우엔 이의 감소율이 56%까지 증가하였다. 따라서 본 실증연구를 통해 복토층 두께 20 cm의 적용성을 확인하였고, 이는 곧 복토재 사용량 감소로 인한 사업비 절감도 가능함을 시사한다.
