Coal gas is a flammable gaseous fuel made from coal and supplied to the user via a piped distribution system. It is produced when coal is heated strongly in the absence of air.

coal gas, gaseous mixture—mainly hydrogen, methane, and carbon monoxide—formed by the destructive distillation (i.e., heating in the absence of air) of bituminous coal and used as a fuel.

In industrial chemistry, coal gasification is the process of producing syngas —a mixture consisting primarily of carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen (H2), carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), …

Coal gas, also known as a gaseous mixture, is a fuel made up of hydrogen, methane, and carbon monoxide produced by destructive distillation (continuous heating in the absence of air) of …
