Pressure and temperature of steam to produce water gas

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the conditions required for steam to react with red hot coal or carbon to produce water gas. Participants explore the necessary pressure and temperature levels for this reaction, as well as the terminology associated with it.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Technical explanation, Conceptual clarification

Main Points Raised

  • One participant inquires about the specific pressure and temperature levels needed for steam to react with red hot coal to produce water.
  • Another participant humorously questions the logic of producing water from water, suggesting a misunderstanding of the inquiry.
  • A link to a Wikipedia article on water gas is provided, which may contain relevant information about the reaction.
  • A participant expresses surprise at the availability of parameters in the Polish version of Wikipedia, indicating a potential language barrier in accessing information.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

The discussion does not reach a consensus on the specific pressure and temperature levels required, and there appears to be some confusion regarding the initial question.

Contextual Notes

There may be limitations in the information provided, such as missing specific parameters or definitions related to the reaction of steam with coal.

You want to produce water from water?
 
Thanks, I didn't know this particular name.

Funny, Polish wikipedia gives the parameters, while English doesn't.
