Book Synopsis Improving the Efficiency of Coal-fired Power Plants by : Roland Ludovic
Download or read book Improving the Efficiency of Coal-fired Power Plants written by Roland Ludovic. This book was released on 2014. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coal has long been the major fossil fuel used to produce electricity. However, coal-fired electric power plants are one of the largest sources of air pollution in the United States, with greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from burning of fossil fuels believed to be the major contributor to global climate change. Regulations under development at the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) would impose new requirements on fossil-fuelled (mostly coal-fired) power plants (CFPPs) to control GHG emissions. This book focuses on efficiency improvements to power plants, and discusses retrofits, technologies, and other modifications to facility operations which offer the potential to improve power plant efficiency and reduce CO2 emissions.

Book Synopsis Clean Energy Technologies in Coal Regions by :
Download or read book Clean Energy Technologies in Coal Regions written by . This book was released on 2020. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this report, we analyze the opportunities in coal regions stemming from the deployment of power generation technologies from wind, solar photovoltaics, bioenergy and geothermal sources, as well as on coal-fired power plants with carbon capture. In this context, we also address energy demand technologies and specifically assess the opportunities arising from energy efficiency in buildings. Starting from an existing scenario (EURCO3232.5), we find that in total by 2030, between 106 681 and 314 416 jobs can be created in the coal regions from the deployment of clean energy technologies, reaching 460 000 by 2050. Toward meeting the agreed 2030 targets and objectives, the jobs created by clean energy technologies in the coal regions would be comparable to the nearly 200 000 direct jobs relevant to coal related activities. By 2050, job creation can more than double that figure. We identify a range of potential for the different regions regarding job creation and resilience to coal related employment. We estimate a technical potential of 1 516 GW from clean energy technologies in the coal regions. Fully tapped, it would be enough to contribute to more than half of the deployment required in achieving Europe's ambitious vision for carbon neutrality by 2050.

Book Synopsis Thermal Power Plants by : Paweł Madejski
Download or read book Thermal Power Plants written by Paweł Madejski. This book was released on 2018-05-02. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The demand for electricity and heat production is still largely covered by conventional thermal power plants based on fossil fuel combustion. Thermal power stations face a big challenge to meet the environmental requirements constantly keeping high process efficiency and avoiding lifetime shortening of critical components. In recent years, many activities have been observed to reduce pollutant emissions and optimize performance in thermal power plants. Increased share of renewable sources of energy in domestic markets enforces flexible operation and fast adjustment to actual demand. Gas power plants start to play a very important role in this process, allowing for rapid change of load and emission reduction. Operation under changing load together with keeping emissions at the accurate level requires constantly introducing new solutions and technologies as well as carrying out many research and development activities for optimization of the electricity and heat production process. The edited book is aimed to present new technologies, innovative solutions, measurement techniques, tools and computational methods dedicated to thermal power plants in the light of new trends and challenges.
