Lurgi gasifier (high pressure gasifier) as compared to Kopper Totzek gasifier (atmospheric pressure gasifier) produces __________________?
Correct answer: B. Both A. and B.
- A. Higher amount of methane
- B. Both A. and B.
- C. Lower amount of hydrogen
- D. Higher amount of both methane and hydrogen
Explanation
The high pressure in a Lurgi gasifier favours methanation, giving more CH₄, and generally produces less H₂ than the atmospheric-pressure Koppers-Totzek process. Both stated changes therefore occur.
