The document introduces Siemens Fuel Gasification Technology and its applications. Fuel gasification technology converts coal and low-grade fuels into high-value products such as electricity, chemicals, or synthetic fuels. Combining gasification with advanced gas turbines enables efficient coal-based power generation. Fuel gasification technology also meets environmental requirements by reducing emissions and can be combined with CO2 Capture and Storage (CCS) technology.
This document provides an overview of Siemens' Fuel Gasification (SFG™) technology for Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) plants. It outlines the gasifier’s design, dry‑feed system, cooling screen, and downstream gas and water treatment processes.
The manual also details the range of feedstocks that can be used, performance specifications, the Siemens Gasification Test Center capabilities, and the scope of supply and services offered for complete gasifier island projects.
