As mentioned above, different combinations or concentrations of gasification agents are applied in biomass gasification technologies. The use of one or another gasification agent leads to a different composition of product gas, so the choice among them is made based on a balance between the final product gas specification (for downstream application) and process costs [14].

Coal gasification can also be carried out on seams that are still in place, the coal being converted to gaseous fuels without an intermediate mining operation. This process, known as in situ or underground gasification, typically involves drilling boreholes to intersect the seam in at least two places, and providing a passage for gas through the seam from one intersection to the other.
