Economic analysis of atmospheric mercury emission control for coal-fired power plants in China.

Coal combustion and mercury pollution are closely linked, and this relationship is particularly relevant in China, the world's largest coal consumer. This paper begins with a summary of recent China-specific studies on mercury removal by air pollution control technologies and then provides an economic analysis of mercury abatement from these emission control technologies at coal-fired power pla...

Reduction of mercury emissions from coal fired power plants

Co2 Emission and Carbon Capture for Coal Fired Power Plants in Malaysia and Indonesia

Coal consumption in Malaysia and Indonesia is growing at the rate of 9.7 and 4.7% per year since 2002, respectively. The increase in coal utilization usually tallies fairly well with the increase in CO2 emission. The present study attempts at predicting the emissions of CO2 from coal fired power plants from 2005 until 2020. The paper also analyzes the potential of carbon capture (CC) program as...

A Review on Technologies for Reducing CO2 Emission from Coal Fired Power Plants

In recent years, global warming has been a major issue due to continuous growth of greenhouse gas emissions from different sources. It has been estimated that the global average temperature will rise between 1.4 –5.8 °C by the year 2100 (Williams, 2002). The contributors to greenhouse effects are carbon dioxide (CO2), chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O). The contr...
