Coal-fired power generation in China grew by around 2% compared to 2021. China continues to add new coal-fired power plants to the grid, with 11 GW added in 2022, driven by energy security concerns, local economic interests, and tendency to pair dispatchable power sources with variable renewable sources.
To burn coal more cleanly, a number of technologies — some already in commercial use — have been developed. These include: using new high-temperature, high-strength alloys to increase coal plants' boiler pressure and temperature, resulting in an increase in efficiency of up to 25 percent, so that less coal is used and less pollutant ...
In addition, this program advances hydrogen turbine designs to improve the performance of pre-combustion CO2 capture systems and supports the development of advanced combustion systems through research focused on new high-temperature materials and the continued development of oxy-combustion technologies. Gasification …
Coal has powered the world, spurring development and the advancement of society; however, the time has come to consign it to the past and find new technology to support development and advancement.
KBR Technology and Southern Company recently celebrated a major milestone when KBR's proprietary clean coal gasification technology, Transport Integrated Gasification (TRIGTM), successfully converted lignite coal to synthesis gas, or syngas, for the first time on a commercial scale at Southern Company subsidiary Mississippi …
