Who Should Attend
This course is directed toward technical personnel who are
interested in gaining a broad understanding of gasification
technologies and issues. It should be of interest and value to-
Personnel who are, or will be, involved in evaluating
projects, developing novel processes, or technology
planning, which utilize gasification
- Personnel in industrial segments, such as power
generation, petroleum refining, ammonia or methanol
production, chemical intermediates using syngas or
production of clean transportation fuels
- Personnel responsible for, or designing means of disposing
of, municipal solid wastes, residue from petroleum refining
or coal benefaction and other chemical and biological
wastes

Description
This course will provide an overview of the diverse nature of
gasification-based processes, depending on the feedstocks
used, products made and the environmental issues. It will
address process integration issues that are vital for
economic viability.
The course is designed to complement and supplement
material presented in gasification conferences. Fundamental
chemistry and thermodynamics of partial oxidation of
carbonaceous materials, gasification reactor design issues
and heat recovery options will be covered in detail. Other
down stream processing options will be surveyed.
