About this book
Coal-Fired Electricity and Emissions Control: Efficiency and Effectiveness discusses the relationship between efficiency and emissions management, providing methods for reducing emissions in newer and older plants as coal-fired powered plants are facing increasing new emission control standards. The book presents the environmental forces driving technology development for coal-fired electricity generation, then covers other topics, such as cyclone firing, supercritical boilers, fabric filter technology, acid gas control technology and clean coal technologies. The book relates efficiency and environmental considerations, particularly from a technology development perspective.
- Features time tested methods for achieving optimal emission control through efficiency for environmental protection, including reducing the carbon footprint
- Covers the regulations governing coal-fired electricity
- Highlights the development of the coal-fired technologies through regulatory change
