For the Polish power industry, basic fuel is hard coal and lignite, which contains significant amounts of mercury. Current emission standards in European Union (IED directive near future BAT conclusions) create conditions for investment flue gas cleaning installations coal-fired plants. During combustion coal, mainly metallic mercury (Hg 0 ) produced, difficult to remove from dedusting (electro...

The providing and storage of hydrogen for efficient fuel cell systems is an on-going challenge. The partial catalytic dehydrogenation (PCD) of liquid fuels can provide stationary or mobile fuel cell systems with hydrogen. Through PCD, liquid fuels can be treated as hydrogen storage as well as an energy provider for combustion processes. It is also an alternative to the common reforming processe...
