Energy efficiency of coal gasification with possible utilization of mining wastes within
ecologically closed gas generator cycle has been considered. Technical and technological
performance of such gas generator and mechanism of material and heat balance on the basis of the
available analytical methods and practices as well as the developed author software have been
proposed. Heat carrier formed in the process of coal gasification has been used for the utilization.
Temperature of the utilization process within the industrially expedient limits being supported with
the help of either activation or attenuation of the gasification process. After specific treatment,
organogenic waste and domestic wastes are utilized by means of thermal decomposition within a
gas generator. Economic evaluation of the proposed means confirms the expediency of their
implementation in mines with industrial and balanced coal reserves as well as within the areas
where this energetic source has already been already mined out. Results of this investigation were
partially presented on international scientific and practical conference “Forum of Miners - 2017”.
They contain the researches, which were conducted within the project GP – 489, financed by
Ministry of Education and Science of Ukrain
