Proposal For Coal Gasification

This document proposes coal gasification to produce synthesis gas (syngas) as an alternative to natural gas. It discusses three main coal gasification technologies and provides a flow diagram for one process. It estimates future natural gas needs for steel production and how syngas from coal gasification could fulfill around 60% of that need. The capital cost for a 320 Gcal/hr coal gasification plant is estimated to be Rs. 568 crores. Operating costs for syngas production are Rs. 7158/tonne or Rs. 2863/Gcal. While syngas is more expensive than other natural gas sources currently, it could help meet future energy needs.
