The　experimental　study　on　the　Yangquan　high-ash　coal　catalytic　gasification　with　mixing-gas　(air/steam)　by　using　solid　alkali　(sodium　hydroxide)　or　waste　liquid　of　viscose　fiber　as　the　catalyst　in　a　small-scale　fluidized　bed　with　28　mm　i.d.　was　carried　out.　The　loading　saturation　levels　(LSL)　of　two　catalysts　in　Yangquan　high-ash　coal　are　about　6%.　Under　the　gasification　temperature　ranging　from　830°C　to　900°　and　from　900°　to　920°,　the　apparent　reaction　order　of　Yangquan　high-ash　coal　with　respect　to　the　unreacted　carbon　fraction　approximates　to　2/3　and　1/3　for　the　non-catalyst　case,　respectively.　Also,　the　different　values　of　apparent　reaction　order　in　the　two　temperature　ranges　are　presented　for　the　case　with　3%　solid　alkali　catalyst　loaded.　At　the　low　temperature　ranging　from　830°C　to　860°,　the　apparent　reaction　order　of　catalytic　gasification　is　1　since　enough　active　carbon　sites　on　the　coal　surface　are　formed　during　the　catalytic　gasification　by　solid　alkali.　But　at　the　high　temperature　ranging　from　860°　to　920°,　the　sodium　carbonate　produced　by　the　reaction　of　solid　alkali　with　carbon　dioxide　can　be　easily　fused,　transferred　and　re-distributed,　which　affects　the　gasification　reaction　rate,　and　the　apparent　reaction　order　of　catalytic　gasification　is　reduced　to　1/3.
