Char gasification is a thermochemical process that converts carbonaceous materials, such as char or biomass, into a gaseous fuel called synthesis gas (syngas). This process involves heating the carbonaceous material in a low-oxygen or oxygen-free environment to produce a mixture of hydrogen, carbon monoxide, and other gases that can be used for fuel or chemical production.
The process of gasification is when carbon containing feedstock is turned into synthetic gas. The process of gasification is accomplished through a set of chemical reactions.

Wood gasification is used to generate electricity and is considered a viable alternative to other forms of gasification, namely coal. Whilst it is considered more environmentally sound it is still a fossil fuel

Bituminous coal is typically used in coal gasification due to its high carbon content and relatively low sulfur content, making it suitable for producing synthesis gas (syngas) through gasification processes.
