New report shows coal plant closures needed by 2030 to meet Paris targets
Entitled "A stress test for coal in Europe", it presents the first science-based shutdown schedule for the EU’s over 300 coal power plants – in order for it to meet the Paris Agreement’s long-term temperature goal. The report shows that emissions from coal in the EU electricity sector need to be close to zero by 2030 (95 percent by 2030; 100 percent by 2031), with a quarter of ...

Black & Veatch: Low prices, security concerns push natural gas industry to look inward
Emerging global markets, liquefied natural gas (LNG) projects and increased coal plant retirements represent growing opportunities for the natural gas industry even as low-price conditions hinder capital investments. This outlook, found in Black & Veatch’s just-released 2016 Strategic Directions: Natural Gas Industry Report, reflects widely varying market outlooks for the upstream, ...

Carbolite gero CAF G5: a new generation of ash fusibility furnaces
When coal is combusted in the furnace of a power plant a powder-shaped residue or a glassy slag (clinker) forms and must be removed. Large coal furnaces suffer from clinker build-up and therefore expensive maintenance due to closure for removal of clinker. If the fusibility characteristics are known, control of temperature can avoid clinker formation. Ash fusibility testing is designed to ...

Colloidal Coal Water Fuel by Nanotechnology for power generation
Coal is still the dominant fuel used for power generation due to its low cost and abundant availability despite its emission problems and global warming issues. Companies around the world are trying to improve the efficiency of coal fired power plants and reduce emissions by various methods. The idea is to prepare an ultra clean coal with very low ash content in the form of coal-water slurry that ...

Delivering green technologies to the developing world
Encouraging uptake of low-carbon technologies in developing countries has an essential role to play in reducing future global carbon emissions. Researchers investigating the transfer of low-carbon technologies to India have made a number of policy recommendations. Many low-carbon technologies are owned by firms in developed countries. Understanding how these technologies could be developed and ...

Fighting Coal mill fires before they start
As part of the new Coal Fire Detection system from Land instruments international, the Mill Fire Detector - a highly sensitive rapid response CO monitor - addresses and successfully prevents the danger of serious fire and explosions due to the rapid heating of stagnant coal inside pulverising mills. The CO detector is the fastest and most effective way of recognising hidden dangers and providing ...
