Semi-Industrial Test of Underground Coal Gasification In Well No.2 in Xinhe, Xuzhou

The necessity of underground coal gasification is explained. The condition,technology character,and process of the semi-industrial test of underground coal gasification in well No. 2 at Xinhe, Xuzhou,are introduced. The test results indicate that the technique of long tunnel,large sectiou,two stage underground coal gasification can obtain a large output of coal gas with a high heat value, making the working process stable. So the feasibility of the new techuology is verified. It can be concluded that there will have a good application prospect of the technique in China.
