Some problems with the gasification process include high capital costs, challenges in handling and storing the produced syngas, reliance on feedstock availability and quality, and potential issues with ash management and disposal. Additionally, the need for a consistent and reliable feedstock supply can also be a potential challenge for gasification plants.
Gasification is a process that converts solid fuels, such as coal, biomass, or municipal solid waste, into a gaseous fuel known as syngas. This syngas can be used as a cleaner alternative to traditional solid fuels for power generation or as a feedstock for producing chemicals and fuels. Gasification typically involves high temperatures and controlled amounts of oxygen or steam to break down the solid feedstock into its gaseous components.
Gasification is a process that converts carbon-containing materials, such as coal, biomass, or waste, into a gas mixture known as syngas. The syngas can then be used as a fuel for producing electricity, heat, or chemicals. Gasification is a cleaner alternative to traditional combustion processes, as it produces fewer emissions and allows for better energy efficiency.
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.
The chemical equation for the gasification of coal can be represented as: C + H2O -> CO + H2
Coal gasification is the process of converting coal into a gas mixture containing carbon monoxide and hydrogen by reacting it with oxygen and steam under high temperatures and pressures. This gas can be used as a fuel for power generation or as a feedstock for the production of chemicals and fuels. It is a cleaner alternative to directly burning coal, as it allows for the capture and storage of carbon dioxide emissions.
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.

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.

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
