A clean-burning gas can be pro
duced by burning lignite. Texas
A&M University’s petroleum en
gineering department is experi
menting with the process termed
coal gasification.
Dr. James W. Jennings, who
heads the project, said 17 wells have
already been drilled in the Yegua
coal formation on Texas A&M prop
erty about three miles southwest of
the main campus.
“This gas could be produced
today at a cost equivalent to that of

natural gas,” Jennings said.
“Our main objective is not to de
velop a commercial process, but
rather to look at some problems
commercial operators would have
and answer some of these ques
tions,” he explained. “And we re
providing hands-on experience for
students in this technology.”
How does the process work?
“The wells have been drilled into
a lignite bed 380 feet deep,” Jen
nings said. “The basic system in
volves two wells; air is injected into
one of these.
“Next, burning charcoal is drop
ped in to ignite the lignite bed.
Gas escapes into fractures in the
burning lignite. “Then air is in
jected into the other well resulting
in reverse combustion.
“Sixty per cent of the gas driven
dioxide ar,
a gas (I,,
off consists of carbon
nitrogen resulting ii
burns cleanly.”
The researchers will light them
derground fires when the Ten
Water Quality Board issues a pernj
for the project. Board approval
expected by mid-August or Se]a
tember. "All experiments done
the past and the lab work (most
the University of Texas) indicated;
effect on ground water is minimal,
Jennings said.
“Gas produced by this proces
can readily lie used in a natural
power plant, ” he said. “This give
us an opportunity to use existing
power plants.”
Jennings said the Russians havi
been using gas produced by tfe
process on a commercial basis sin#
the 1950s.
