Abstract: | Implementing coal to synthetic natural gas (SNG) is a key way to deal with the conflict between supply and demand of natural gas in China. For the coal to SNG process, gasification is a crucial unit, which determines the syngas composition and influences cost of coal to SNG system. In this current study, a coal to SNG system using ash agglomerating fluidized bed gasification is designed and modeled. According to the above results, the thermal performance and technoeconomic assessment of the coal to SNG system are performed. The research demonstrates that exergy efficiency and energy efficiency of the whole system are 55.37% and 61.50%, respectively. Additionally, the results of the economic evaluation show that the SNG production cost is 1.87 CNY/Nm3 with a coal price of 250 CNY/t and an electricity price of 0.65 CNY/kWh. Sensitivities to variables such as water price, electricity price, total equipment cost and coal price are performed. Coal price represents the most important sensitivity, but the sensitivity to water price is relatively small. |
