Method for simultaneous disposal of solid and liquid wastes including the steps of gasifying in a fixed bed pressure gasifier a gasification material containing coal and 1 to 70% of a solid waste material containing sulfur, hydrocarbons, PCBs, dioxins and/or heavy metals, to form a pollutant and dust-containing fixed bed pressure gasification crude gas; post-gasifying in a post-gasifier at a temperature greater than 1,000.degree. C. and with a dwell time of more than 2 seconds the crude gas together with an oxygen-containing gas and a liquid waste portion having a heat content of greater than 20,000 kJ/kg and containing hydrocarbons, PCBs and/or heavy metals to form a disposal gas; cooling the disposal gas to less than 200.degree. C. and cleaning it or process waste water to form a mixture of pollutant slurries; gasifying in an additional flow gasifier a mixture of the pollutant slurries, another liquid waste portion having a heat content of greater than 20,000 kJ/kg and containing hydrocarbons, sulfur, PCBs, heavy metals and/or dioxins and 3 to 35% of solid components containing greater than 10% mineral components and sulfur, heavy metals, PCBs, dioxins, furans and/or hydrocarbons, at a temperature more than 50.degree. C. above a melting point of the mineral components.
