Coal Gasification Power Generation System (CGPS)
Secure reliable, 24/7 industrial baseload power independent of the grid.
POWERMAX's coal gasification power generation system (abbreviated as CGPS) is a kind of advanced power generating system integrating coal gasification technology and efficient gas engine/generator. CGPS includes coal gasification (coal gasifier), gas purification (detarrer, desulfuration equipment), and coal gas power generating (coal gas engine). Our latest Modular Design allows these systems to be deployed in 7-10 days, transforming low-cost local coal into high-value electricity.
The process of CGPS: Coal is converted to low BTU coal gas. Sulfur content, nitrogen oxides, and dust are removed in the coal gas purification section. The clean coal gas is then fired to generate electricity in the gas engine. Exhaust gas from the gas engine may be used by a waste heat boiler to produce hot water or steam (CHP), boosting total efficiency to >85%.
CORE ADVANTAGES: SMART DESIGN & PERFORMANCE
PART A: Smart Modular Design & Economy
- Rapid Execution: Unlike conventional plants that take months, our modular CGPS is normally started up within 7-10 days after delivery.
- Low Investment: Minimized on-site civil construction (no complex power house building needed) reduces initial capital expenditure.
- Operational Flexibility: Support on-demand capacity expansion (500kW to 2000kW modules) to match your factory's growing load.
PART B: Performance vs. Conventional Two-stage Gasifiers
- Zero Waste Emission: Featuring a refined process design with a specialized Tar and Phenolic Water Incineration Unit, ensuring environmentally friendly operation.
- In-depth Purification: Unlike standard models, our system is equipped with Two ESP (Electrostatic Precipitator) purification systems to guarantee ultra-clean syngas output.
- Low Water Consumption: Uses significantly less water than traditional steam power plants.
Broad Feedstock Adaptability
Our advanced gasification system is engineered to process specific coal ranks, ensuring stable syngas production from high-grade anthracite to low-grade lignite.
Bituminous Coal, Sub-bituminous Coal, Lignite / Brown Coal, and High-Ash Coal (Ash >30%). Ideal for reducing fuel costs.
Anthracite Coal (White Coal), Metallurgical Coke, and Semi-Coke. Suitable for high-efficiency gasification.

The Economics: Diesel vs. CGPS
The Diesel ProblemFuel Cost: High ($1,000+ / ton) Cost Per kWh: $0.30 - $0.45 / kWh |
The Coalwatt SolutionFuel Cost: Low ($50 - $150 / ton) Cost Per kWh: $0.06 - $0.10 / kWh Result: Payback in 18-36 Months |
Maximize Revenue: 3 Value Streams
Replace expensive grid power. Save $0.20+ per kWh.
Recover waste heat for steam/hot water. Efficiency >85%.
Bottom ash is a raw material for construction bricks. Turns waste into revenue.
From Coal to Clean Power: 4-Stage Process
- 1. Automated Feeding: Raw coal is automatically fed via airtight double-lock valves.
- 2. Gasification: High‑temperature pyrolysis (≥1000 °C) transforms solid fuel into combustible syngas.
- 3. Purification: Gas passes through scrubbers and ESPs to remove dust and sulfur.
- 4. Power Generation: Clean syngas drives heavy-duty gas engines for grid-synchronized electricity.
