Gasification

Broad Range of Flexible Services

GE is one of the world's leading providers of both gasification and power generation technologies. GE provides long-term license agreements that include the gasification process design package, process and instrumentation design review with EPC, start-up support, operator training, on-going technical support and products supply. We can tailor gasification and power block solutions to help customers meet the needs of challenging project requirements.

Gasification is an efficient means of converting low value-residuals into higher volume products including power, steam, hydrogen, and basic chemicals. It is a process that produces mixtures of hydrogen and carbon monoxide (synthesis gas or syngas) from carbon-based feedstocks such as coal, petroleum, coke and heavy oils. Gasification uses multiple feedstocks to produce multiple products. There are over 60 commercial sites worldwide using GE gasification technologies.
