Coal Gas Power Generation

WHAT is Coal Gas

Coal gas is a custom industrial combustible syngas, different from standard finished coal chemical gas. The coal gas referenced here refers to mixed flammable gas dominated by carbon monoxide, hydrogen and methane. It is produced from coal feedstocks including raw coal, coal gangue and coal powder via Powermax exclusive gasifiers under airtight oxygen-deficient high-temperature pyrolysis. After on-site coal gasification, multi-stage purification including dust removal, desulfurization, tar removal, cooling and pressure stabilization delivers gas with steady calorific value and controllable impurities. It is fully compatible with all impurity-resistant generator sets from Powermax Energy to realize clean power generation from coal gasification.

WHY use Coal Gas

Easy access to coal cuts overall power generation costs
Raw coal, low-grade coal and coal gangue are widely available at low prices. Fuel expenses drop drastically compared with natural gas and diesel power generation. Utilizing cheap inferior coal minimizes on-site power consumption costs for long-term energy savings at heavy industrial facilities.
Customized gas output ensures stable unit operation
Powermax gasifiers deliver adjustable gas supply. Operators can tune gas calorific value and flow rate according to unit load, free from specifications of outsourced gas sources. The system produces steady gas round-the-clock for smooth generator operation, ideal for non-stop 24-hour production lines.
Clean gasification for compliant, controllable emissions
Sealed high-temperature gasification eliminates dust pollution from direct coal combustion. Integrated flue and gas purification systems centralize waste treatment to meet emission standards. The technology sharply cuts dust and exhaust output versus traditional coal-fired boilers, easily meeting factory environmental regulations.
Recyclable slag builds a circular resource loop
Gasification residual slag meets activity standards for reuse as construction aggregate and road base filler, eliminating piles of hard-to-dispose solid waste. This forms a full circular chain: Raw Coal → Coal Gas → Electricity → Recycled Slag, lowering solid waste disposal fees.
Versatile performance with flexible adjustable capacity
Powermax Energy coal gas dedicated generators suit both high and low calorific coal syngas. The product range covers small-to-medium distributed stations and large centralized power plants, supporting grid-connected generation, self-consumption and waste heat recovery for exclusive industrial and mining power scenarios.
