Clean coal technology (CCT) is an environmentally friendly technology for producing syngas. The gasification process is part of CCT for producing the syngas. The numerical simulation of the gasification process is much more economical compared to the experimental study. So, it is beneficial for calculating syngas composition and helping to improve the gasification process. In the present research, the single-stage entrained gasifier is considered for the syngas composition analysis. In the study, the volatile break-up was estimated by the finite volume method. The reaction rates are analyzed using the Finite rate dissipation reaction model. The syngas composition and the exit temperature result of simulation follow behavior reported in the literature.
