Gasification is emerging as a core technology for the production of chemicals and cleaner power, and refers to a process for converting solid fuels, including coal, biomass, and wastes, into either fuel gas (containing CH 4 and some N 2 usually) or syngas (containing mainly H 2 and CO) for subsequent conversion into fuels and chemicals.

Electric motors have higher efficiency rates compared to internal combustion engines, which waste a significant amount of energy as heat. EVs convert a higher percentage of electrical energy from the battery into actual propulsion, resulting in less energy waste. 10 Are EVs eco-friendly since we generate electricity from coal?
