About Coal Gasification<\/b>
\n<\/span>\u2022 Coal gasification is a thermo-chemical process that converts coal into synthesis gas (syngas), mainly composed of CO, H<\/span>\u2082<\/span>, CO<\/span>\u2082<\/span>, CH<\/span>\u2084<\/span>, and H<\/span>\u2082<\/span>O.<\/span>
\n<\/span>\u2022 The process involves high-temperature reactions of coal with limited oxygen and steam.<\/span><\/p>\n

Process of Coal Gasification<\/b><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Preparation<\/b>: Coal is crushed to increase its surface area.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Gasification Reactor<\/b>: Crushed coal is fed into a high-temperature vessel with steam and limited oxygen.<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Chemical Reactions<\/b>: Partial oxidation breaks coal into syngas.<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Gas Cleaning<\/b>: Tar, sulfur, and dust are removed from the raw gas.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Coal Gasification Financial Incentive Scheme (FIS)<\/b><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Launch Date<\/b>: January 24, 2024<\/span><\/li>\n
    2. Outlay<\/b>: <\/span>\u20b9<\/span>8,500 crore<\/span><\/li>\n
    3. Target<\/b>: 100 million tonnes of coal gasification by 2030<\/span><\/li>\n
    4. Objective<\/b>: Promote public and private sector participation in coal gasification projects<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Significance of Coal Gasification<\/b><\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Cleaner Energy<\/b>: Produces syngas, which is cleaner and easier to transport.<\/span><\/li>\n
      2. Industrial Uses<\/b>: Syngas is used for producing methanol, ammonia, ethanol, hydrogen, olefins, and power.<\/span><\/li>\n
      3. Economic Value<\/b>: Reduces oil and gas imports, utilises 378.21 billion tonnes of domestic coal reserves (2023 inventory).<\/span><\/li>\n
      4. Strategic Role<\/b>: Supports India\u2019s clean coal transition and energy security goals.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          \n
        1. Goal<\/b>: Achieve 100 MT coal gasification by 2030<\/span><\/li>\n
        2. Phases<\/b>: <\/span>Phase I<\/span><\/i>: Pilot projects; <\/span>Phase II<\/span><\/i>: Upscaling through Coal India Limited; <\/span>Phase III<\/span><\/i>: Full-scale gasification after tech improvements<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
