| Abstract: | Coal gasification studies were carried out on Lafia Obi bituminous coal (LOB) using varying coal particle sizes to determine devolatilization rate. It was observed that particle size and coal chemistry affected devolatilization while fluidizing velocity and bed temperature play no significant role on devol atilization, between 800 – 900oC. Reduction in coal size increases devolitization and burning rate at increased temperature but with a decrease in devolatilization rate at increased mass charge leads to lower rate of in-bed-burning rate. Volatile emission was used to evaluate energy—mass balance of an adiabatic gasification. |
