  "term": "Coal gasification",
  "field": "Oil and gas",
  "definition": "A process that converts coal into a gaseous fuel, known as syngas, by reacting it with oxygen, steam, and heat under controlled conditions. The syngas, primarily a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen, can be used as a fuel for power generation, as a feedstock for chemical production, or further processed into synthetic natural gas. This method offers an alternative way to extract energy from coal reserves.",
