[Gasification] Relationship between Gas Composition and FluidizedBed Temperature

[Kevin Chisholm]

Dear Lim

Very interesting!! Intuitively, I would have thought that composition would 
be strictly temperature dependant, regardless of gasifier type.

Whenever I get results that contradict what "The Book" says, I become both 
intrigued and worried. ;-)

Would you be able to tell us a bit more about the gasifier style you are 
using for your tests?

Thanks very much!!

Kevin
