Underground Coal Gasification Research

Journal of Energy Resources Technology, 1983
Recent successful field tests of underground coal gasification, UCG, have demonstrated the potential for UCG commercialization. This paper presents results of mathematical modeling and laboratory research studies which have been conducted to improve our understanding of the complex processes involved.

Environmental concerns of underground coal gasification

Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, 2014
Abstract Underground Coal Gasification is the conversion of solid Coal to gas in-situ by heating the coal and injecting oxidants air/oxygen to cause the gasification by partial combustion instead of complete combustion of coal. UCG is the promising technology having a lot of health, safety and environmental advantages over the conventional mining ...

Review of Underground Coal Gasification Technologies

2016 3rd International Conference on Green Technology and Sustainable Development (GTSD), 2016
In the wake of increasing challenges of high prices of oil and gas and uncertainties about political stability in many oil and gas producing countries, coal becomes more and more important in the coming years for its vast reserves and wide distribution all over the world.

Status of Underground Coal Gasification: ABSTRACT

AAPG Bulletin, 1985
Underground coal gasification appears to be one of the most attractive routes for synfuels from coal because the process can produce methanol and substitute natural gas at prices competitive with existing energy sources. The technical feasibility of underground coal gasification has been well established by small-scale field tests. Cost estimates based

Underground Coal Gasification - A Status Report [PDF]

open access: possibleJournal of Petroleum Technology, 1977
Underground gasification provides a unique means for recovering energy from coal without mining it. ERDA is conducting several field demonstration projects to test the feasibility of in-situ coal gasification. Several projects to test the feasibility of in-situ coal gasification. Several concepts being tested are discussed.

Method for Stimulating Underground Coal Gasification

Journal of Mining Science, 2018
The mathematical model of heat flow and transfer in roof rocks of underground gas gasifier during coal gasification is developed and tested. In terms of geological conditions in the Olkhovo-Nizhnee site (industrial region in Donbass), in Mathcad environment, convective and conductive components of heat flow from reaction channel to upper-lying aquifer ...

Steam decomposition in underground coal gasification

Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research, 1987
An idea for probing the combustion zone temperature (CZT) in underground coal gasification (UCG) by using the hydrogen amount in product gas coming from the steam decomposition (HS) is proposed. It seems, from both experimental and theoretical analyses of three generators, that the increase in CZT results in the increase of HS and vice versa ...

Underground coal gasification: issues in commercialisation

Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Energy, 2014
Back in 2007, it was expected that commercial gas production from underground coal gasification (UCG) technology would be in progress within the following 5 years. This has not occurred, particularly in Australia, where at the time three commercial projects were being aggressively pursued.

Producing hydrocarbons by the underground gasification of coal

Coke and Chemistry, 2013
The composition and yield of the products obtained in the underground gasification of coal at Podzemgaz South Abinsk Station are studied. Data are also presented regarding the rectification and hydrocracking of the products. The underground gasification of coal may be regarded as a potential source of phenolic hydrocarbons, naphthalene, pyridine bases,

Commercial development of underground coal gasification

Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Energy, 2007
Underground coal gasification (UCG) is a process by which coal seams at depths uneconomic for open pit mining can be converted, using drillhole access, to a gas suitable for use as a fuel for power generation or as a chemical feedstock. Its application draws on a wide range of engineering and related disciplines including chemistry, geology ...
