Gaseous Fuels, also known as gas fuels, refer to any gaseous substance that can be burnt to generate heat or power. It generally contains low molecular weight combustible gases such as hydrocarbons, hydrogen and carbon monoxide, and often contains non-combustible gases such as nitrogen and carbon dioxide.
According to their sources, the gaseous fuels can be categorized as follows:
■ Gaseous fossil fuels, include Conventional natural gas, Unconventional natural gas (e.g., oilfield associated gas, coalbed methane, shale gas, etc.), Coal mine gas, Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), and others;
■ Gaseous biofuels, include Biomass pyrolysis gas, Biomass gasification gas, Biogas, etc., which belong to renewable energy sources.
■ Synthetic fuels (gaseous), include Synthetic natural gas(SNG), Synthetic ammonia, Synthetic hydrogen fuel, and others.
■ Manufactured Gas, include Coal gasification gas, Coke oven gas, Semi coke gas, and Linz-donawitz gas, etc.
■ Industrial off-gas, include Ferroalloy off-gas, Calcium carbide furnace off-gas, and Oil shale retort gas, etc.
The power plant can use fossil fuels (such as natural gas, fossil oil, and coal, etc.) or renewable energy sources (such as water, wind, solar energy, and biomass energy, etc.). In short, it is economical and environmentally friendly to choose the fuels or energy forms that are easy to get and suitable for you.
The gaseous fuels of our power plant include: Gaseous fossil fuels, Gaseous biofuels (such as Biomass pyrolysis gas, Biomass gasification gas and biogas, etc.), Manufactured Gas (such as Coal gasification gas, Coke oven gas, Semi coke gas, and Linz-donawitz gas, etc.), Synthetic gaseous fuels (such as SNG, Synthetic ammonia, aquafuel etc.), and Industrial off-gas.
