    Coal gasification technology is an emerging technology to extract coal energy for using in many purposes including chemical production, thermal process and electrical power generation. This is comparatively a new technology for Bangladesh because of lack of financial investment, technical knowledge, support, experts and practical experiences. According to power system master plan (PSMP) of Government of Bangladesh, coal will get the highest priority as primary source of power generation. To generate clean electricity from coal, gasification is the highly efficient and environment friendly technology. Therefore, coal gasification technology has huge prospects in Bangladesh. This paper surveys the coal gasification scenarios in Bangladesh and presents the gasification technology adopted by different industries mentioning their present condition. In addition, coal gasification technology and the potential application of this technology in Bangladesh is discussed.
