In this paper we investigate the value of capture-readiness by modeling the cost effectiveness of various alternative technological options and focusing on different clean-coal technology pathways. The modeling framework developed is based on stochastic net present value calculations. It allows...

A deep-air-staging combustion technology was previously developed to achieve reduction in NOx emissions and to … combustion and NOx emissions characteristics within the furnace, full-load industrial-size experiments were performed at … concentrations in the near wing-wall region, carbon content in fly ash, and NOx emissions. As expected, the furnace performance …

In order to achieve the reduction in greenhouse gases committed in the Kyoto Protocol, countries must establish control policies and encourage industries to reduce their emissions. Two main options arise in a cap and trade framework: (i) buying/selling emission allowances; and (ii) reducing...

A phase Doppler anemometer system was used to study gas-particle flow characteristics of a conical rings concentrator for a centrally fuel-rich burner. The influences of distance between adjacent rings on the distribution of mean axial velocity, particle volume flux, particle number...

To investigate the cause of the increase in the unburned fraction when sub-bituminous coal is mixed with bituminous coal observed in previous experimental research using a 100 kg-coal/h-class coal combustion test furnace, numerical simulations of the mixed combustion of sub-bituminous coal and...

Little work has been performed on the importance of sodium and its occurrence in coal to PM2.5 (particles less than 2.5μm in aerodynamic diameter) reduction by kaolin during O2/N2 combustion and O2/CO2 combustion at high temperatures. In this study, the combustion experiment of a treated...

The use of oxy-combustion is an attractive alternative to amine based absorption of CO2 to retrofit coal-fired power plants. The aim of this work is to compare these two carbon capture technologies taking into account environmental and economic criteria. To this end, we have developed a rigorous...

In this paper we study the relative advantage of investing in a natural gas combined-cycle (NGCC) power plant versus a coal-fired power plant with and without carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology. For the investment analysis under uncertainty, we apply fuzzy real options theory. Three...
