RTI and Eastman Partner on Syngas Clean-Up Technology

摘要

RTI International(Research Triangle Park,NC;www.rti.org)and Eastman Chemical Co.(Kingsport,TN;www.eastman.com)will jointly develop and commercialize a synthetic gas(syngas)clean-up tech-nology.The novel high-temperature technology package will provide a modular approach to the removal of contaminants contained in syngas derived from coal and petroleum coke.This will lead to significantly higher thermal efficiency and reduced operating costs,and will reduce the cost of power produced in gasification-based power plants.
