Bergius process
The Bergius process is a direct coal liquefaction method, patented by Friedrich Bergius in 1913, that converts finely ground coal into liquid fuels under high hydrogen pressure.
H-Coal process
The H-Coal process is a direct coal liquefaction process developed by Hydrocarbon Research, Inc., demonstrated at a 600 ton-per-day pilot plant in Catlettsburg, Kentucky, from 1980 to 1982.
Lurgi gasifier
The Lurgi gasifier is a pressurized, dry-ash, moving-bed coal gasifier developed by Lurgi in Germany in the 1930s, used commercially since 1940 and still operating at Sasol's Secunda complex in South Africa.
Secunda CTL
Secunda CTL is a commercial coal-to-liquids facility operated by Sasol in South Africa. It converts low-grade coal and natural gas into liquid fuels, meeting about 28% of the country's annual needs.
Shell Coal Gasification Process
The Shell Coal Gasification Process (SCGP) is an oxygen-blown coal gasification technology developed by Shell that converts dried pulverized coal into synthesis gas at high temperature and pressure.
Solvent Refined Coal process
The Solvent Refined Coal (SRC) process is a US direct coal liquefaction method, developed from the 1960s to the 1980s, yielding a low-sulfur, low-ash fuel.
Texaco gasifier
The Texaco gasifier, also called the GE or ChevronTexaco gasifier, is an entrained-flow gasifier that converts coal-water slurry and oxygen into synthesis gas at high temperature and pressure.
