is a mixture of hydrogen (H2), carbon
monoxide (CO), and often carbon dioxide (CO2), it can be used
as fuel.
Syngas
Syngas (synthesis gas) is a mixture of hydrogen (H2), carbon
monoxide (CO), and often carbon dioxide (CO2), it can be used
fuel.
can be to used for the production of syngas which helps the
reduction of greenhouse gas emission.

compared to conventional fossil
fuels. However, it has a potential to be less harmful to the environment
due to its lesser greenhouse gas emission.

SOURCES OF SYNGAS
Natural gas:
Coal gasification:
Biomass gasification:C
C + H2O → CO + H2(steam reforming)
C + (1⁄2)O2→ CO (partial oxidation)
