Gasification is the process of converting any carbon-containing feedstock, such as coal, into fuel gas, also known as syngas. The syngas produced by gasification can be converted into more valuable commercial products such as transportation fuels, chemicals, fertilizers, and even substitute natural gas. In refineries, the technology can convert high-sulfur petroleum coke into electricity, steam, and hydrogen for use in refineries and surrounding markets.

Syngas can also be used as a hydrogen source in fuel cells, but most gasification systems produce syngas that requires further processing and reforming to remove pollutants and other gases, such as CO and CO2, to be suitable for low-temperature applications fuel batteries, but high-temperature solid oxide fuel cells can directly accept a mixture of H2, CO, CO2, steam, and methane.
The high efficiency of converting synthesis gas into electrical energy contrasts with the significant energy costs of pre-treatment of waste, the consumption of large amounts of pure oxygen which is often used as a gasifying agent.
Gasification technology is the process of converting organic or fossil-derived carbonaceous materials into carbon monoxide, hydrogen, and carbon dioxide at high temperatures (> 700°C) without combustion, with controlled amounts of oxygen and steam. Pure syngas can be used to generate electricity in reciprocating engines or turbines, or further processed to produce hydrogen to replace natural gas, chemicals, fertilizers, or transportation fuels.
Gasification can be an efficient and virtually pollution-free way to produce energy, fuels, and chemicals from readily available resources such as coal, coke, and biomass. Instead, the patented SES technology enables the raw materials to undergo chemical reactions in a closed environment at high temperatures and pressure, and the resulting syngas can be converted into various green energy products.
