Coal to liquid fuel Clean coal technology Clean coal technology A new generation of coal-burning power plants with energy processes that reduce air emissions and other pollutants. Coal power plants technology must adapt to the changing political climate towards environmental issues. Clean coal technology Clean coal technology Clean coal technologies are several generations of technological advances that have led to more efficient combustion of coal with reduced emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide.

Capturing the CO2 produced from industrial or power generation processes 2. Transporting the CO2 to an underground geological formation which is suitable geological formations 3. CO2 can be used as fluid in “Enhanced Oil Recovery”, where CO2 pushing the remaining oil [2] [1] http://webberenergyblog.wordpress.com/2012/04/06/3272/ [2] “Carbon Capture and Sequestration (CCS)”, Congressional Research Service, June 19, 2009 <http://www.fas.org/sgp/crs/misc/RL33801.pdf> Clean coal technology Carbon capture and storage http://www.captureready.com/userfiles/image/Carbon%20Capture/Post-combustion%20Capture%20Process_Vattenfall.jpg Clean coal technology Carbon capture and storage http://www.captureready.com/userfiles/image/Carbon%20Capture/Pre-combustion%20Capture%20Process_Vattenfall.jpg Clean coal technology Carbon capture and storage http://www.captureready.com/userfiles/image/Carbon%20Capture/Oxyfuel%20Combustion%20Capture%20Process_Vattenfall .jpg Coal gasification Gasification the process of producing syngas–a mixture consisting primarily of methane (CH4) carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen (H2), carbon dioxide (CO2) and water vapor (H2O)–from coal and water, air and/or oxygen Coal gasification Coal gasification reaction In coal gasification, four principal reactions are crucial: 1. Steam gasification 2. Carbon dioxide gasification 3. Hydrogasification 4. Partial oxidation reaction S. Lee, J. G. Speight, S. K. Loyalka. 2007. Handbook of alternative fuel technology. CRC Press Coal gasification Coal gasification reaction 1. Steam gasification The steam gasification reaction is endothermic S. Lee, J. G. Speight, S. K. Loyalka. 2007. Handbook of alternative fuel technology. CRC Press Coal gasification Coal gasification reaction 2. Carbon dioxide gasification Carbon dioxide reacts with carbon to produce carbon monoxide and this reaction is called Boudouard reaction. This reaction is also endothermic in nature, similar to the steam gasification reaction S. Lee, J. G. Speight, S. K. Loyalka. 2007. Handbook of alternative fuel technology. CRC Press Coal gasification Coal gasification reaction 3. Hydrogasification Direct addition of hydrogen to coal under high pressure forms methane This reaction is exothermic and requires high temperature and pressure S. Lee, J. G. Speight, S. K. Loyalka. 2007. Handbook of alternative fuel technology. CRC Press Coal gasification Coal gasification reaction 4. Partial oxidation Combustion of coal involves reaction with oxygen, which may be supplied as pure oxygen or as air, and forms carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. Principal chemical reactions between carbon and oxygen involve: S. Lee, J. G. Speight, S. K. Loyalka. 2007. Handbook of alternative fuel technology.
