The Global Syngas Technologies Council (GSTC) promotes the uses of syngas in the economy.
GSTC encourages the use of economically competitive and environmentally conscious technologies to produce fuels, chemicals, fertilizers, substitute natural gas, hydrogen and electricity from a variety of feedstocks. GSTC facilitates relationships among technology, equipment and service providers, and plant owners and operators.

 

What is Syngas?
Syngas is an abbreviated term for synthesis gas, which is a gaseous mixture of hydrogen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and other trace components. The term synthesis gas originally comes from the intermediate mixture for generating synthetic natural gas. Syngas is also used as an intermediate for the production of ammonia, methanol, synthetic petroleum products, and other chemicals.
