Abstract: . . .  European Union and in Germany is reflected by meagre budgets proposals. Major areas are completely neglected. 2 Also research & development in gasification does not meet the advantages and importance of this technology It is marked by discontinuity. First failures often lead to interruption. There are no criteria for selection of best practice. Page 16 As gasification is a rather complex technology, co-operated and strictly target- orientated research is indispensable. East-German expertise is neglected, . . .

The review will be concentrated on technologies and plants which are not represented by a speaker at this meeting. The author apologizes for all projects that might be neglected or not treated.
