hydrogen and oxygen, an SOEC could be used to create
syngas by electrolyzing water vapor and carbon dioxide.»
Possibilities include (but are not limited to) novel gasifiers, new applications for commercial gasifiers, co-gasification approaches, new technologies to increase the

The plasma reduces the complex blend to a few simple gases, such as steam, carbon monoxide, and
hydrogen, plus assorted contaminants such as mercury and sulfur; subsequent cleanup systems remove the steam and mercury and scrub out the soot before the
syngas is sent to an internal combustion engine generator.
