Description

Underground Coal Gasification (UCG) is the process by which coal is converted in situ into a combustible gas that can be used as a fuel or chemical feedstock. It is a process to convert unminable underground coal/lignite into combustible gases (i.e., combustible
syngas – a combination of hydrogen and carbon monoxide) by gasifying. UCG uses a
similar process to surface gasification. The main difference between both gasification processes is that in UCG the cavity itself becomes the reactor so that the gasification of the coal takes place underground instead of at the surface.
