The COGAS Process is unique in producing a synthetic crude or fuel oil, in addition to producing pipeline gas. Gasifying char after the pyrolysis of coal offers several operating advantages over direct gasification of coal. These advantages are discussed and char reactivity data are presented. As part of the early experimental program, other evaluative tests were developed. Description of the test apparatus and example data are given. Product yields from Illinois No. 6-seam coal for the COGAS Process are presented.
