Abstract:
India's coal-fired generating capacity doubled between 1990 and 2010 and currently accounts for 70 percent of electricity produced. Despite this, thermal efficiency at state-owned coal-fired power plants in India is significantly lower than at plants in the United States. When matched on age and capacity, heat input per kWh was 8 percent higher at Indian plants between 1997 and 2009. This can only partly be explained by the lower heat content of Indian coal. Electricity sector restructuring in the United States improved thermal efficiency at investor-owned plants; however, electricity sector r

Carbon emissions trading scheme (CETS) is widely regarded as a cost-effective marketbased regulation for carbon abatement. In the context of CETS, this study develops an evolutionary game model that incorporates two representative coal-fired power plants and a government. Our model captures the interplay of emission reduction strategies between coal-fired power plants and endogenously incorporates government regulatory decisions. We analyze the strategic decisions of coal-fired power plants by discussing the dynamics and equilibrium of the game. Our findings demonstrate that in the absence of

The U.S. Department of Energy is partnering with industry to develop advanced coal-fired electric power plants that are substantially cleaner, more efficient, and less costly than current plants. Low-emission boiler systems (LEBS) and high-performance power systems (HIPPS) are based, respectively, on the direct firing of pulverized coal and the indirectly fired combined cycle. LEBS uses a low-NOx slagging combustion system that has been shown in pilot-scale tests to emit less than 86 g/GJ (0.2 lb/106 Btu) of NOx. Additional NOx removal is provided by a moving bed copper oxide flue gas cleanup

As energy problem become more important, and nation require further intensify energy-saving work, coal-fired power plants begin to pay attention increasingly to the environmental protection and reliability. The study establishe a new method for the present coal-fired unit, that can overall evaluate environmental protection and reliability regularly. The running condition of a 600MW grade coal-fired unit in 2019 is take as an example for energy efficiency evaluation. The results prove that the method is simple andconvenient for the use. It can weigh the level of safety, energy saving, environme

Abstract:
Chlorine (Cl) released from coal-fired power plants can be harmful to power equipment, the ecological environment and human health. Here, we investigated the Cl releasing characteristics from four coal-fired power plants (CFPPs) in China’s Anhui province based on an ion chromatography analysis of the combustion by-production samples collected from different locations of the power plants. The results showed that Cl content in coals was low (198–367 μg·g−1), which positively correlated with the contents of lead, mercury and total sulfur, but was weakly correlated with the moisture and ash yield

Abstract In this article, we provide the results of a simple quantitative analysis of the potential remedies to reduce the supply gap in Germany that arises if Russia stops delivering natural gas. We take into account the supply potential of other suppliers, and combine this with an analysis of the additional supply potential by stopping electricity generation from natural gas. Moreover, we investigate the effect of minimum storage requirements. We find that a realistic expansion of supply by other providers, in particular Norway, combined with the temporary replacement of gas-fired power plan

After the ultra-low emission(ULE) transformation, the emissions of ULE coal-fired power plants in China have been reduced greatly. However, considering the total amount of emissions, coal-fired power plants are still among the largest sources. And there may still have great potential in the removal of colored plume and some unconventional pollutants such as condensable particles matter (CPM) and sulfur trioxide (sulfuric acid mist). Though in cold days, hazes occur frequently. Besides, low-temperature condensation is conducive to the condensation and removal of vapor, CPM and sulfur trioxide i

Heat released from the stacks of coal-fired power plants is a resource that can be harnessed. This paper examines the performance of MHE in recovering useless heat from the main stack in a coal-fired power plant. The MHE units that are installed in the stack have eight (four pairs) shell and tube heat exchangers. The heat recovered by MHE is transferred to electricity and used in the coal-fired power plant. The results show that MHE is utterly useful in recovering heat from coalfired power plant. The MHE units improve the efficiency of the power plant and decrease the amount of CO2 emission, w

Abstract:
Coal has been used as the most commonly energy source for power plants since it is relatively cheap and readily available. Thanks to these benefits, many countries operate coal-fired power plants. However, the combustion of coal in the coal-fired power plant emits pollutants such as sulfur oxides (SOx) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) which are suspected to cause damage to the environment and also be harmful to humans. For this reason, most countries have been strengthening regulations on coal-consuming industries. Therefore, the coal-fired power plant should also follow these regulations. This study

Coal-fired power plants are widely used to achieve a power balance in grids with renewable energy, which leads to new requirements for speediness in load dispatch.

The optimization results of the benchmark functions indicated that the NSGWO algorithm had a better accuracy and a better distribution than the traditional multiobj
