Abstract
A method for the gasification of coal in a fluidized bed gasifier to improve gasification efficiency comprising the steps of introducing coal into the thermal cracking zone of a fluidized bed gasifier, thermally cracking and partially combusting the coal in said gasifier, recovering a fluid product gas containing fine particles therein from the fluidized bed gasifier, separating the fine particles as char from the first product gas, gasifying said recovered fine char particles at a temperature higher than its melting point in a high temperature gasifier to produce ash and a second product gas having H.sub.2 and CO as its main components, recovering the ash as a slag and feeding the second product gas containing H.sub.2 and CO to the coal feeding position of the fluidized bed gasifier in the thermal cracking zone.
