The Underground Coal Gasification (UCG) process is a complex and multiphysics phenomenon, thus making it difficult to develop a mathematical model that encapsulates all dynamical aspects. In this regard, datadriven modeling techniques offer a reliable alternative for prediction, control, and optimization of dynamical systems, but their ...

6. COAL GASIFICATION UNDERGROUND COAL GASIFICATION (UCG) PROCESS • Under the process of UCG, gasification of coal happens insitu by controlled burning. • About 350 m3 gas can be produced per tonne of coal. • Bye products of significant commercial value will be hydrocarbons, phenols, anhydrous NH3and clean water • UCG overcomes hazards of underground and open cast mining operations.
With underground coal gasification (UCG), the actual process takes place underground, generally below 1,200 feet. The underground setting provides both the feedstock source as well as pressures comparable to that in an aboveground gasifier. With most UCG facilities, two wells are drilled on either side of an underground coal seam.
This paper represents the results of experimental studies of physical modeling of the underground coal gasification process in terms of implementation of design and technological solutions aimed at intensification of a gasification process of thin coal seams. A series of experimental studies were performed in terms of a stand unit with the provided criteria of similarity to field conditions as ...
Underground coal gasification (UCG) is just an industrialised gasification process that takes place in coal seams that haven't been mined. It entails injecting a gaseous oxidising agent, often oxygen or air, and transporting the resultant product gas to the surface via production gas wells drilled from the surface.
the gasification process needs to be monitored and controlled to ensure that the underground gasification has a stable combustible gas composition and calorific value, as well as a higher gas yield and gasification rate [1]. UCG is a very complex physical and chemical process, and many factors affect the composition and quality of syngas.
In this study the characteristics of Turkish lignite for underground coal gasification process was experimentally investigated in a laboratory scale ex situ reactor. A rectangular prism shaped ex ...
Underground coal gasification (UCG) ... The notable products in a coal pyrolysis process encompass CO, H 2, CH 4, CO 2, H 2 O, char, and to a lesser amount tar and hydrocarbons. It is thus evident that the generation of H 2 occurs principally in the reduction and pyrolysis categories.
Underground coal gasification (UCG) has been shown to be a promising method for deep coal resources. A series of complicated chemical reactions can induce a considerable change in the pore structure of coal and thus promote the UCG process in turn. Currently, most studies on the effect of elevated temperature on the pore structure of coal were not involved in an air atmosphere, bringing a ...
Increasing global energy demand is a central challenge of the 21st century. Apart from renewable energy concepts, sustainable bridging and buffering technologies are needed which simultaneously offer longterm energy supply guarantees. Underground coal gasification (UCG) shows a promising potential to meet these requirements of future energy markets by in situ conversion of coal to a valuable ...
The Controlled Retracting Injection Point (CRIP) process for underground coal gasification (UCG) was successfully demonstrated during the Rocky Mountain I (RM I) field test conducted in the winter of 198788 near Hanna, Wyoming. The basic features for the CRIP process are its ability to maintain oxidant injection low in the coal seam by ...
Underground Coal Gasification (UCG) requires monitoring of the gasification area because the gasification process is invisible and the reaction temperature exceeds 1000 °C. Many fracturing events ...
Underground coal gasification is one of the best and most promising option for the processing of unused coal in the future. As the world is moving towards unconventional sources of energy, this process enhances this change towards the unconventional by allowing coal to be gasified in situ within the coal bed with the help of a series of
The growth state of the combustion cavity during underground coal gasification (UCG) affects the gasification process's efficiency, stability, and accurate monitoring and control. In this study, a simulation experiment of UCG was performed, and a horizontal coaxial gasification channel was drilled based on the constructed artificial coal seam.
Underground coal gasification (UCG) is a complex process as it depends on many factors such as geological and geohydrological analysis of strata, physical and chemical properties of coal, operational process parameters, seismic events, analysis of produced gases in realtime.
Underground Coal Gasification ("UCG") is a longstanding, proven process for converting coal to a synthetic gas ("syngas") with a wide range of potential end uses. Its commercial development has been restricted due to the need to match resource and end use opportunities in a supportive environment, although it is
Geological Model of the Gasifier. The gasifier mainly consists of two parts: a coal seam and the surrounding rock. The temperature distribution in the gasifier, the nonuniformity and instability of the gasification reaction, and the heterogeneity and anisotropy of the surrounding rock determine that the geological model of the gasifier must be threedimensional rather than simply two ...
Underground coal gasification is an in situ coal utilization technique that has immense potential as a future clean coal technology.
