The scale of waste formation from coal-fired generation is significant and tends to grow steadily in the context global use coal for power production. This paper covers problems current opportunities recycling fly ash position a stakeholder approach, namely, identification main participants determination effects economic agents projects. Based on method modeling empirical assessment project eff...

Executive Summary The Clean Coal Technology (CCT) Program is a government and industry co-funded effort to demonstrate a new generation of innovative coal-utilization processes in a series of " showcase " facilities built across the country. These projects are carried out on a sufficiently large scale to prove commercial worthiness and generate data for design, construction, operation, and tech...

Ž . In this paper, we find that sulfur dioxide SO emissions by electric utilities declined from 2 1985 to 1993 for reasons largely unrelated to the emission reduction mandate of Title IV of the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments. The principal reason appears to be the decline in rail rates for low-sulfur western coal delivered to higher-sulfur coal-fired plants in the Midwest. Consequently, there is...

The Queensland Government’s Health Report, ‘Coal seam gas in the Tara region: Summary risk assessment of health complaints and environmental monitoring data, March 2013’, [Health Report] and the reports on which it is based, do not provide a comprehensive investigation of the potential impacts of coal seam gas (CSG) activities on the residents of Tara. The Health Report should not be used by go...

The concentrations of smoke, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and some gaseous air pollutants have been measured in two London Transport diesel bus garages and compared with observations made in the same garages over 20 years earlier. The main feature of the results was a large reduction in the background concentrations of smoke and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons from sources such as ...

China is the biggest coal product and consumption country around the world. Lots of coal consumption resulted huge carbon dioxide (CO2) emission, especially for coal-fired power plant in China. Oxy-fuel combustion is currently considered to be one of the major technologies for CO2 capture in power plants. The ash formation mechanism and mineral transformation in high CO2 atmosphere is different...

Alternative energy technologies are greatly hindered by significant limitations in materials science. From low activity to poor stability, and from mineral scarcity to high cost, the current materials are not able to cope with the significant challenges of clean energy technologies. However, recent advances in the preparation of nanomaterials, porous solids, and nanostructured solids are provid...
