Process: Coal gasification is a process in which coal is partially oxidised with air, oxygen, steam or carbon dioxide to form a fuel gas. This gas is then used instead of piped natural gas, methane and others for deriving energy.

AFP. Coal gasification is an insitu method wherein oxygen is infused into the seam together with water and ignited at high temperatures, causing coal to partly oxidised into hydrogen, CO, carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and hydrogen sulphide (H2S). Exsitu reactors are designed to simulate the gasification process above the ground's surface.
The coal is ignited and air is injected underground to sustain a fire, which is essentially used to "mine" the coal and produce a combustible synthetic gas which can be used for industrial heating, power generation or the manufacture of hydrogen, synthetic natural gas or diesel fuel.
Underground coal gasification (UCG) also known as insitu gasification (ISG) of coal takes place underground, generally below approximately 370 m.

gasifier. (Show more) coal gasification, any process of converting coal into gas for use in illuminating and heating. The first illuminating gas was manufactured from coal in England in the late 18th century by the process of carbonization or destructive distillation, heating coal in the absence of air, leaving a residue of coke as a byproduct.
This chapter presents an assessment of the technologies that have evolved for the gasification of coal with a description of the current state of the art of the various technologies. Various types of coal are available such as lignite, subbituminous coal, bituminous coal, and anthracite. The gasification process involves two distinct stages ...

UCG is a gasification process applied to in situ coal seams. UCG is very similar to aboveground gasification where syngas is produced through the same chemical reactions that occur in surface gasifiers. UCG has a large potential for providing a clean energy source through carbon capture and storage techniques and offers a unique option for CO2 ...
The Underground Coal Gasification (UCG) offers a clean source of energy by converting coal/lignite insitu into syngas that can be used either as a fuel or as a chemical feedstock [2]. The UCG has the potential to utilize coal and lignite resources which are inaccessible due to depth and are uneconomical to extract using the conventional mining ...
The resource for UCG is principally unmined coal seams. The gasification process creates synthesis gas that can be used as fuel, or feedstock for further chemical processes such as NH 3 production or liquid fuels. An oxidant (usually air, oxygen, or steam) is injected into the coal seam and reacts with the coal and water present in the seam to ...
Underground coal gasification (UCG) is the process of converting hydrocarbon materials into synthesis gas insitu. Underground coal gasification is sometimes referred to as insitu coal gasification (ISCG). The process has been developed over more than a century, though only a few projects currently operate on a continuous basis.
The coal face is ignited, and the high temperatures (about 1,200°C) from the combustion and limited oxygen causes nearby coal to partially oxidize into hydrogen, carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), and minimal amounts of methane (CH 4) and hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S).
One concept for insitu coal gasification involves fracturing thick, deep, coal seams using chemical explosives. The resultant highpermeability zone then would be ignited and reacted with a steam/ oxygen mixture to produce mediumBtu gas suitable for upgrading to pipeline quality in a surface plant.

Coal gasification can also be carried out on seams that are still in place, the coal being converted to gaseous fuels without an intermediate mining operation. This process, known as in situ or underground gasification, typically involves drilling boreholes to intersect the seam in at least two places, and providing a passage for gas through the seam from one intersection to the other.
Gas properties Gas content. One of the factors affecting the energy release potential of coal is gas content. Gas content is the summation of free and adsorbed gas in coal and is recognized as the key parameter used for determining outburst propensity (Lama 1995).In Australia, gas content is used alone to define a Threshold Limit Value (TLV) in coal mines to assess outburst risks.
