solid hydrocarbons: coal, petcoke, biomas via gasification
high reliability and high efficiency gasification for solid hydrocarbon feedstocks, with over a 20-year track record of world-class plants for coal to chemicals, synthetic fuels or power.
liquid hydrocarbons: refinery "bottoms" via residue gasification
providing the cost-efficient, high-value solution for the “bottom of the barrel” material in a refinery complex, adding extra value and profit to the refinery as the world transitions away from high-sulfur fuel oil.
gaseous hydrocarbons: natural gas, rog via smr
world-class, high-efficiency steam methane reforming or partial oxidation plants providing syngas and/or hydrogen from a modest 1000 scf/d to a large-scale 100mm scf/d for de-sulfuring and upgrading fuels or providing hydrogen for fuel-cell vehicles.
why gasification?
learn how gasification is a clean, reliable and flexible alternative to creating synthesis gas (syngas) from low-value feedstocks for the production of high-value products and power.
global gasification experience
since beginning gasification research in the 1950s, shell/ge/air products have designed more than 170 liquids and 34 coal gasifiers with a substantial proportion still in operation world-wide. we also operate our own gasifiers, which helps us to understand and anticipate your operational needs. learn more about our specific select projects.
