Show 9/18 concentration under the planned condition. Conclusion A series of tests were conducted on the dust-removal, CO-shifting and desulfurization capabi I ities of the proposed system using gas from the Texaco type gasifier. The findings are summarized below. (1) The experiment found that use of a ceramic filter could provide the system with dust-removal capabi I ity to hold the outlet dust concentration to below 10 mg/m 3 N. Proper backwash conditions were also identified through the tests. (2) A CO-conversion rate of 30% to 40%, which is approximately equal to the theoretical eQui I ibrium value, was achieved with commercial catalysts. However, further research efforts are needed to device effective measures for maintaining the activity of catalysts. (3) A desulfurization efficiency of 97% to 98% was achieved by an integrated desulfurization system which combined a fluidized-bed desulfurizer using iron oxide and a fixed-bed desulfurizer using zinc oxide. Useful date was also obtained on desirable regeneration conditions. From now on, our research act i v i ties wi I I be focused on co I I ect i ng desulfurization data at higher temperatures using the testing equipment descr i bed in th i s report. I n add i t i on, another ser i es of tests wi I I be conducted on fluidized-bed desulfurizer using zinc oxides in an effort to simplify the desulfurization system.
