The catalytic conversion of alkali metal carbonate (K2CO3) catalyst supported on perovskite oxide was carefully examined as an effective catalyst for low-temperature catalytic gasification of lignite. It showed much higher activity than K2CO3 alone as well as K2CO3 supported on gamma-alumina under gasification conditions below 800 degrees C. Furthermore, catalyzed syngas had higher H-2 and lower CO2 ratios than noncatalyzed syngas. Promisingly, there was also much less tar formation, less than 50 wt.% compared to non-catalyzed gasification. Also, less loss of K2CO3 and no coke formation on the catalyst surface were confirmed, comparing to the catalytic gasification with K2CO3 supported on gamma-alumina.
