GTI’s innovative R-GAS™ process is
being demonstrated with Yangquan Coal
Group in China. In 2019, construction
was completed and commissioning was
initiated for the facility that will showcase
breakthrough gasification technology to
lower costs and minimize environmental
impacts. It has been proven to achieve
>99% carbon conversion, and can be used
for coal conversion to liquid fuels and
chemicals, as well as power generation.
GTI is developing and testing a
number of different processes using
reformers and catalysts to convert
natural gas into liquid fuels, reduce
emissions, and utilize captured CO
