Coal gasification

The document discusses coal gasification in India, noting that while coal is abundant, Indian coal typically has low calorific value and high inorganic impurities, posing challenges for gasification. It also notes that current underground coal gasification technology restricts the use of coal with over 30% ash content. Additionally, India's NITI Aayog has formed a technical committee to discuss converting domestic coal into energy and chemicals via suitable gasification technologies.
