Twin Coal Lock System Mk4 coal lock limited capacity insufficient for the factor 2 in coal rate required Operating frequency not practical beyond 6 cycles/hour Increased Mk4 coal lock size has negative impact on tightness and lifetime of the larger cones High risk option, therefore not pursued Twin locks system implemented Standard proven design of Mk4 coal lock Standard proven design of Mk4 cone valves Standard proven operating cycle frequency Limited increase in the thickness of the lock Saves 2/3 of the pressurization gas Modified coal feed arrangement References Ruhr 100 large pilot FBDB gasifier, Dorsten (Germany) 1979-1985 Slagging gasifier (70 barg design pressure), Westfield (Scotland) 1991 SVZ (32 barg design pressure), Schwarze Pumpe (Germany) 2000-2007 15 22/05/2012

Lurgi FBDB Benefits of Mk Plus - Opex Higher efficiency & reduced cost 10 % decrease of the SNG cost by example Carbon conversion > 99% Thermal efficiency (exiting gasifier) > 94% Cold gas efficiency > 87% Lower coal consumption Lower oxygen consumption per t of coal Reduced steam consumption per t of coal Higher methane yield per t of coal Reduced gross tar yield per t of coal Increased oil and naphtha yield per t of coal Increased gasification rate per gasifier x-area Gain on compression of SNG 17 22/05/2012
Lurgi FBDB Benefits of Mk Plus - Capex Number of Lurgi FBDB TM modules Example, only 20 Mk Plus for 4 BCMY SNG (compare to 40 Mark4) Reduction of over 300 equipment numbers for a 4 BCMY SNG project Reduction of plot size Reduction of capex ~20% across the Lurgi FBDB TM process chain Savings in downstream units CO Shift & Rectisol Reduced capex due to higher operating pressure and process effects Reduced capex due to gas composition improvement Reduced refrigeration requirement (more efficient high pressure absorption) Reduced methane Loss (optimized process scheme, co-absorption) Gas Liquor Separation, Phenosolvan, Lurgi CLL TM and Waste Water Treatment Reduced capex due to less gas liquor Methanation Reduced capex due to higher operating pressure Reduced recycle because of higher methane content in feed gas Smaller reactor as half of the feed is methane (CH 4 ) 18 22/05/2012
