DOE continues to support research and development projects which promote large-scale, affordable hydrogen (H2) or high H2 syngas production from coal with near-zero environmental emissions and at near-zero trace contaminant levels, as required for use of the H2 or syngas in a variety of uses including power production with carbon capture or fuels production. These projects include the development and scale-up of gasification technology, catalysts, advanced separation materials, and process technology for producing H2or high H2 syngas, and the development of technological approaches that consolidate multiple processing steps into a single step to reduce overall project costs—i.e., process intensification. Relevant projects include:
