A method for preparing synthetic gas from
volatiles in low rank
coal is characterized in that the low rank
coal is processed by a gasification reduction process to obtain an oil and gas mixture, the oil and gas mixture is processed by a purifying process to obtain a
mixed gas containing CO, H2 and hydrocarbons, the
mixed gas is processed by a partial
hydrocarbon reforming conversion process to obtain the synthetic gas containing CO and H2, and the gasification reduction process is a
chemical reaction process for heating the dried low rank
coal under an
oxygen-free or micro-aerobic condition. The method and the
system fully and effectively use the
volatiles in low rank coal to prepare the synthetic gas, so the calorific value of the synthetic gas is high; and devices of the
system are simple, and are easy to operate, and most of the devices are existing devices , so the
system has the advantages of low running cost, simple process, high safety, ensuring of safe and efficient preparationof the synthetic gas, and realization of reasonable and full utilization of products generated in the whole
processing process of the low rank coal through the arrangement design of the system devices.
