1. Technical Characteristics of <strong>GE</strong> Gas Turbines to Handle Syngas<br />

There are many key design enhancements for <strong>GE</strong> <strong>IGCC</strong> gas<br />

turbines that enhance performance on syngas including:<br />

• High rotor torque capability to take advantage of higher mass<br />

flow with low BTU gas (6FA/7FA/9FA)<br />

• Dual fuel <strong>IGCC</strong> MNQC combustors with head-end diluent<br />

injection capability<br />

• Larger stage 1 nozzles to increase throughput and reduce<br />

compressor backpressure<br />

• Compressor air extraction capability to reduce ASU capital<br />

cost and reduce power consumption<br />

• Simplified fuel control system allowing for co-firing over 90/10-<br />

30/70 syngas/NG firing range with bumpless transfers<br />

• Nitrogen purge module<br />

• Mark VI controls for head-room in GT to handle interfaces with<br />

gasification process control
