Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues

As a crucial aspect of clean and efficient coal utilization technology, modern coal gasification technology is developing rapidly and diversely. This Special Issue, entitled “Advances in the Coal Gasification Process and Technology Development”, aims to gather outstanding research that addresses advances in the coal gasification process and its technology. It will cover a wide range of processes applicable to coal gasification, employing a variety of resources and technologies in both economically and environmentally friendly ways. This Special Issue will collate high-quality research articles on various aspects of coal gasification process technology, including its current status and remaining challenges. Topics include, but not are limited to, the following:

  • Advanced coal gasification process technology, including underground gasification, catalytic gasification, hydrogasification, supercritical water gasification and plasma gasification.
  • Simulations and experiments for advanced coal gasication technology.
  • Design for the advanced coal gasification process.
  • Evaluation of the energy efficiency and economic benefits of the coal gasification process
