This process transforms coal into a gas mixture, primarily hydrogen and carbon monoxide, which can be used for various applications, including power generation and chemical production. India predominantly has Gondwana coal, formed around 250 million years ago, which is lower in carbon content compared to the high-grade coal from the Carboniferous period, approximately 350 million years ago.
