  2. Coal gasification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coal_gasification

    The gas oil was fixed into the BWG via thermocracking in the carburettor and superheater of the CWG generating set. CWG was the dominant technology in the US from the 1880s until the 1950s, replacing coal gasification. CWG has a CV of 20 MJ/m 3 i.e. slightly more than half that of natural gas.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_gasification...

    An integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) is a technology using a high pressure gasifier to turn coal and other carbon based fuels into pressurized gas—synthesis gas . It can then remove impurities from the syngas prior to the electricity generation cycle.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthetic_fuel

    Fundamentally, transitioning from oil to coal or natural gas for transportation fuels production is a transition from one inherently depletable geologically limited resource to another. One of the positive defining characteristics of synthetic fuels production is the ability to use multiple feedstocks (coal, gas, or biomass) to produce the same ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fischer–Tropsch_process

    The Fischer–Tropsch process is an important reaction in both coal liquefaction and gas to liquids technology for producing liquid hydrocarbons. [1] In the usual implementation, carbon monoxide and hydrogen, the feedstocks for FT, are produced from coal, natural gas, or biomass in a process known as gasification.
