In situ gasification chemical looping combustion (iGCLC) was a promising way to inherently sequestrate CO 2. Due to the nitrogen in coal, the NOx emission was a key issue in this study, we aimed to identify the nitrogen conversion and distribution characteristics in two elementary stages of coal conversion (pyrolysis and subsequent char gasification) during the i GCLC process in a ...

Mathematical modelling of in situ combustion and gasification

Mathematical modelling of in situ combustion and gasification

Abstract. The total worldwide resources of oil sands, heavy oil, oil shale and coal far exceed those of conventional light oil. In situ combustion and gasification are techniques that can potentially recover the energy from these unconventional hydrocarbon resources. In situ combustion can be used to produce oil, especially viscous and immobile ...

A new reaction model for aquathermolysis of Athabasca bitumen

Aquathermolysis of bitumen occurs when it is thermally cracked in the presence of water. Current in situ technologies for bitumen production, such as Cyclic Steam Stimulation and SteamAssisted Gravity Drainage, inject high pressure, high temperature steam in the reservoir to heat the bitumen which in turn lowers its viscosity enabling flow to a production well.

An oxidant (usually air, oxygen, or steam) is injected into the coal seam and reacts with the coal and water present in the seam to produce syngas that is extracted through a production well. As the gasification process proceeds, the cavity grows radially outward and upward from the injection well.
