ABSTRACT:
A source of carbon, such as coal, is reacted with excess steam in an amount of about 2 to 10 times the amount necessary for complete reaction with the carbon source so that the steam reactant is the only source of heat necessary to supply the entire heat of reaction. The steam is superheated in a separate vessel in such a manner that it does not contain oxygen, nitrogen or combustion products so that pollutant gases are not found in the reaction product gas since the carbon source never comes in contact with oxygen in the reactor.
