Abstract: This review article presents the effects of the inorganic elements and compounds on gasification and their mechanisms of action. The influence of inorganics on the gasification reaction have been described in the literature. However, the specific phenomena involved and the mechanisms of action are not stated with consensus. Therefore, the present review gathers the various mechanisms proposed by authors. Some have been demonstrated to be unlikely such as the mechanisms involving intercalation compounds or mechanical actions. In order to give more practical applications of this work, the review also gathers the gasification kinetic models that take these inorganic effects into account.
