Characteristic Analysis and Risk Control of Syngas Explosion during Underground Coal Gasification.

Gas explosion is one of the main accident risks during underground coal gasification (UCG). There are significant differences in the gas composition and explosive environment between UCG syngas and other gases. Previous research on the explosion characteristics of UCG syngas is not comprehensive enough, especially without considering the influence of the initial temperature on various characteristic parameters.

Modeling Methodology for Site Selection Evaluation of Underground Coal Gasification Based on Combination Weighting Method with Game Theory.

The lack of systematic geological work is an essential reason why underground coal gasification (UCG) has not been industrialized for a long time. Building a scientific index system and favorable area evaluation technology for the UCG site selection is the key to breaking through the geological bottleneck. Aiming at the problems of the single index weight determination method, intense subjectivity, and poor reliability of current evaluation models, we put forward an evaluation modeling methodology for the UCG site selection using the combination weighting method with the game theory.
