How can coal be turned into a gas or liquid?

Coal can be converted into gas through a process called gasification, which involves heating coal at high temperatures in the presence of oxygen to produce a synthetic gas (syngas) containing carbon monoxide and hydrogen. This syngas can then be further processed to produce liquid fuels through a process called Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, which involves chemically converting the syngas into liquid hydrocarbons like diesel and gasoline.


How is coal turned into gases?

Coal is burned and the gases evolved collected. Coke is the residue. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ NO. coke is not made by burning coal. Burning the coal is the last thing that you want to to do. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This gas production method was widely used before natural gas was developed. The resulting gas is a mixture of hydrogen, methane, carbon monoxide, and ethylene. As well as for cooking and heating it was widely used for lighting. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You get coke by heating coal in a large airtight oven because you do NOT want the coal to burn. Among other products that you get besides the ones listed above, you get coal tar, ammonia, and sulfur compounds. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
