The hybrid plant concept: Combining direct and indirect coal liquefaction processes

Gray, D.; Tomlinson, G.C.; El Sawy, A. - 2008

The objective of this study is to assess the technical and economic impacts of siting direct two-stage coal liquefaction and indirect liquefaction, using slurry Fischer-Tropsch (F-T) reactors, at the same location. The incentives for this co-siting include the sharing of the large number of...

Estimated increases in the cost of electricity under three acid-rain control bills

Hillsman, E.L.; Alvic, D.R. - 2008

Several bills were introduced in the past two Congresses to reduce emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides from electric power plants. The effects of these bills on electricity costs depend on features of the bills, on the mix of generating capacity owned by different electric utilities,...

Tradeable CO sub 2 emission permits for cost-effective control of global warming

Kosobud, R.F.; South, D.W.; Daly, T.A.; Quinn, K.G. - 2008

Many current global warming mitigation policy proposals call for large, near-term reductions in CO{sub 2} emissions, thereby entailing high initial carbon emission tax rates or permit prices. This paper claims that these high initial tax rates or permit prices are not cost-effective in achieving...
