Abstract

See full text

A system and method for gasification of a feedstock in a subterranean formation to produce syngas is described. An injection well is completed in the formation to inject an oxidant, provide an ignition source and convey the feedstock that includes water and one or more of a biomass, waste plastic, coal, bitumen and petcoke. Volatized hydrocarbons and gaseous reaction products are simultaneously withdrawn from a producer well from the subterranean formation to the surface. This syngas product is treated at the surface for power generation or conversion to transportation fuels and/or plastics. This method provides a low capital cost gasification unit which is capable of processing a variety of feedstock mixtures.
