This patent describes a process for the production of gaseous mixtures comprising H{sub 2} + CO by the partial oxidation of a sulfur-containing feedstock comprising a heavy liquid hydrocarbonaceous fuel having a nickel and vanadium-containing ash or a solid carbonaceous fuel having a nickel and vanadium-containing ash, or mixtures thereof. The feedstock includes a minimum of 0.1 wt. % of sulfur, grater than about 7 parts per million of silicon; and the ash includes a minimum of 2.0 wt. % vanadium, and a minimum of 1.0 wt. % of nickel and also iron, aluminum, calcium, sodium, and/or potassium.
