Shell Gasification Process

Shell gasification is a process that converts solid or liquid fuels, like coal or biomass, into a clean, synthetic gas called syngas, mainly composed of carbon monoxide and hydrogen. This is done by reacting the fuel at high temperatures with controlled amounts of oxygen and steam in a reactor. The process breaks down complex molecules, removing impurities, and producing a versatile gas that can be used for electricity generation, making chemicals, or creating synthetic fuels. Shell's method emphasizes efficiency and environmental benefits by reducing emissions and enabling cleaner energy recovery from various feedstocks.
