ABOUT THE ISGA-7 CONFERENCE :

ISGA-7 is the 7th edition of the International Symposium on Gasification and its Applications.

  • Date :  MONDAY 27TH  TO THURSDAY 30TH SEPTEMBER 2021
  • Location : NANCY

Gasification of solid fuels allows producing syngas that may be upgraded to various convenient energy carriers: electricity, gaseous fuels (H2, CH4), liquid fuels (diesel, methanol, DME). Besides political and legal barriers, there are still scientific, technological and economic challenges that should be overcome to accelerate the implementation of gasification in our growing world. Every 2 years, the ISGA events gather the researchers to discuss the progress that have been achieved. ISGA-7 will also gather industrials that will detail their achievements and needs.

ISGA-7 will deal with various scientific and technological topics related with:

  • gasification reactors: fixed bed, fluidized bed, entrained flow…
  • upgrading technology: syngas purification and separation, engines / fuel cells, catalytic and biological reactors
  • gasification processes analysis: environmental, social and economic impacts assessment.
Every 2 years, the ISGA events gather the researchers to discuss the progress that have been achieved. ISGA-7 will also gather industrials that will detail their achievements and needs. The former editions of ISGA were organized in Shanghai (China) in 2008, Kyushu (Japan) in 2010, Vancouver (Canada) in 2012, Vienna (Austria) in 2014, Busan (Korea) in 2016, Chengdu (China) in 2018.
