The partners have agreed to assess and identify coal deposits in Indonesia for application of underground coal gasification (UCG) technology, and to prepare a preliminary study for their commercial development. Syntroleum Corporation and Sasol has produced almost 1,5 billion barrels of synthetic fuel from about 800 million tonnes of coal since the first sample of synthetic oil from coal was produced fifty years ago at its Sasolburg plant near Johannesburg in South Africa on 23 August 1955. Announced the completion and start-up of its fifth underground coal gasifier at Chinchilla, Australia (earlier post). Green Car Congress has an article out on a Coal-To-Liquids project in Queensland that uses a new underground gasification process (via Energy Bulletin). It is well known Syngas has a number of commercial applications; feed for power generation plants, iron and steel manufacturing, gas-to-liquids processes and fertilizer / methanol production. Underground coal gasification (UCG) company Linc Energy Ltd. Gasifier 5 incorporates the application of proprietary oxygen injection equipment to enable production of higher quality synthesis gas for optimizing GTL and other downstream plant designs. Currently available information on this subject needs to be updated, however, and focused on specific coals and end products. This represents the final phase in the technological for each gasifier in its commercial operations. Skyrocketing energy costs have spurred renewed interest in coal gasification. Synfuels China and its development in advanced CTL process technologies (ICC) 11. DOE's National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) has developed a molten catalytic process for converting coal into a synthesis gas consisting of roughly 20% methane and 80% hydrogen using alkali hydroxides as both gasification catalysts and in situ When Web surfers sign up for a new online service or download a Web application for their smartphone or tablet, the service typically requires them to click a seemingly innocuous box and accept the company's . ASU technology for gasification-application to CTL in China (Air Liquide) 12. Mr Algy Cluff, Chairman and Chief Executive of Cluff Natural Resources, commented: 'I am delighted to be able to announce the award of these licences which represent a low cost entry into underground coal gasification which is becoming a burgeoning industry.
