Integrated Gasification to Combined Cycle

ASINCRO has identified the technology of Integrated Gasification to Combined Cycle (IGCC) as the technology of the future, for electrical generation. Accordingly, it has invested significant technical resources to research and development (R&D) on this technology. As a result, ASINCRO has been involved in important projects using the gasification of solid fuels for power generation in several countries around the world.
