Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a gasification method which achieves formation of a tar-removed gas and quick gasification of char, a gas formation apparatus, and a gasification apparatus.  <P>SOLUTION: First, a carbon based solid fuel such as coal and biomass is heated at 450°C or higher to thermally decompose the carbon based solid fuel into a gas phase component and char. The gas phase component is composed of a gas comprising hydrogen, carbon monoxide and the like and tar. Next, the gas phase component is brought into contact with activated char at 600-800°C to effect coking to decompose the tar. The tar is decomposed on the surface of the activated char into a gas and coke, and the coke is deposited on the surface of the activated char to form a carbon supporting material. Then, the char and the carbon supporting material are brought into contact with a gas containing water vapor to effect gasification for producing a gas comprising hydrogen and carbon monoxide. By gasification, the surfaces of the char and the carbon supporting material are eroded to form activated char which is then recycled in the coking.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT
