Explanation

Synthesis gas, often abbreviated as syngas, is a mixture primarily composed of carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen (H2). It is typically produced through the gasification of carbon-containing materials such as coal, natural gas, or biomass. Syngas can also contain varying amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and other gases depending on the specific production process.
