The principal reactions of the gasification are endothermic and the necessary energy for their occurrence is granted by the oxidation of part of the organic material, through an allo-thermal or an auto-thermal phase.

In the auto-thermal process, the gasifier is internally heated through partial combustion, while in the allo-thermal process the energy required for the gasification is supplied externally. Considering the auto-thermal system, gasification can be seen as a sequence of several stages. The main steps of the gasification process are: | ||
