APPENDIX A

The “Equipment Included” columns are not all inclusive. These are to provide an idea of the type of instrumentation, rotating equipment, and vessels required to achieve the module and/or utility.

Processing Equipment/Unit Operations:

The following unit operations had FEL 1 completed. The budget may not accommodate all outlined unit operations. For this project, final scope/quantities may change to accommodate a fixed budget.

The unit operations will be divided into modular systems such as feed tank with pump, control valve, level indication, pressure indication, and flow indication. Other modules could be fixed bed reactors with a cooler and three phase separator downstream. The goal is to be able to move modules to allow researchers flexibility in how to achieve their overall process development philosophy. These modules are meant to operate integrated at a fuel production rate of approximately 1 barrel per day or 42 gallons per day.

Analytical Equipment:

The unit operations for this renovated pilot plant facility will need online and offline analytical equipment to support process development. A large part of the goals associated with the project is to ensure complete heat and material balances. This includes instrumentation on the process unit operations, and access to analytical equipment for accurate and real time data.

Utility Equipment:

Utilities will be supplied and/or disposed of by various pieces of equipment.

Title Description & Assumptions Equipment List Electrolyzer Fed deionized water to an electrolyzer stack where saturated H2 and O2 are produced. Needs to have the capability to recycle water and spillback H2 for turndown cases.

Tank for deionized water, electrolyzer stacks totaling 500 kW power draw, compressors, knockout pots, heat exchangers with connections to cooling water, pressure control valves, appropriate instrumentation, an oxygen vent, and a pump.

Thermal Oxidizer

Flammable offgases, relief vents, and sample vents are directed to a central header that is swept towards a burner.

The burner is vented outside, to safely dispose of the vapors/gases.

Piping, nitrogen sweep hookups, drops every two feet, a thermal oxidizer capable of 100% H2 fuel, a knockout pot and pump.

Instrumentation for flow measurement, pressure, and temperature.

Vent Gas Scrubber

Gases/vapors routed to scrubber when containing H2S, other acids, foul smelling materials, etc so that those can be scrubbed with the appropriate materials to decrease the concentration being routed to the thermal oxidizer.

Vessel, random packing, level instrumentation, pumps, internal distributors, pressure instrumentation, flow control valves, piping, tank for scrubbing material, etc.

Autoclave Large autoclave for pilot-size biosafety level 2 work being conducted. Need to be able to sterilize larger pieces of equipment, not bench scale vessels.
