Abstract: Described herein are coatings. The coatings can, for example, catalyze carbon gasification. In some examples, the coatings comprise: a first region having a first thickness, the first region comprising a manganese oxide, a chromium-manganese oxide, or a combination thereof; a second region having a second thickness, the second region comprising Ni, Fe, W, Cr, Co, Mn, Ti, Mo, V, Nb, Zr, Si, C, or a combination thereof; and an alkaline earth metal, an alkaline earth oxide, an alkaline earth carbonate, an alkaline earth silicate, molybdemun, a molybdenum oxide, a molybdenum carbide, a mixed-metal perovskite, a mixed metal inorganic oxide, or a combination thereof.
