[0002] Coal is an important energy source in my country and a raw material for the production of many chemicals. The clean and efficient utilization of coal aligns with the current trend of energy conservation and environmental protection, thus becoming one of the key research directions in China. High-temperature and high-pressure coal gasification is a process that converts solid fossil fuel coal into gaseous combustibles under high temperature and pressure. The process involves using gas or water as a fluidizing agent to carry coal into the gasifier reaction chamber. The coal comes into contact with oxygen and undergoes a series of complex physicochemical reactions, generating crude syngas mainly composed of hydrogen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and water vapor, as well as unburned ash.
