Transboundary air pollution from coal-fired power generation

Journal of Environmental Management, 2020
To what extent do the short-term negative externalities of fossil fuel use traverse national borders? Transnational negative externalities are thought to motivate international environmental cooperation, but we often lack detailed data on their occurrence.

The Future of India's Coal-Fired Power Generation Capacity

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2019
Abstract Given the size and growth prospects of the Indian economy, the Indian power sector plays a key role in the global effort to mitigate climate change. Here we use the January 2017 edition of the Coal Tracker database to understand the future prospects for Indian coal.

Solar-Aided Coal Fired Power Generation - A review

2020 International Conference on Power, Energy, Control and Transmission Systems (ICPECTS), 2020
Purpose of this review is to check possibility of upgrading existing coal based thermal power plants with Coal-Solar hybrid power generation. Almost 2/3rd of power generation in India is based on Coal which is main source of environment hazardous gases like carbon dioxide (CO2), Sulfur dioxide (SO2) and Nitric Oxide (NO).

Radiological impact of coal-fired power generation

Journal of Environmental Radioactivity, 1985
Abstract A radiological impact assessment was carried out at the 4000 MW Nanticoke Thermal Generating Station on the north shore of Lake Erie and at an ash disposal site in Metropolitan Toronto, both operated by Ontario Hydro. Analyses were performed on feed coal, fly ash and bottom ash and on samples of air filters, precipitation, water, soil and ...

The future of coal-fired power generation in Southeast Asia

Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, 2020
Abstract As both China and India are moving away from coal in the power sector, Southeast Asia has emerged as arguably the most important region for future growth in coal-fired power generation. Here we use data from the January 2017 edition of the Global Coal Plant Tracker to understand coal’s fortunes in the region. More specifically, we manipulate

Direct Coal Fired MHD Power Generation

Journal of Engineering for Power, 1974
This paper describes the results of the first experiments in the operation of a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) generator on coal at simulated central power conditions. The microscopic examination of the generator after one hour of operation shows no damage to any of the electrode or insulator structures.

Outage Trends of Coal Fired Power Generating Units

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2012
Coal and lignite fired power generating units constitute about 65% of installed capacity and contribute to the tune of 80% of electricity generation in India. These capital-intensive power-generating units remain unavailable for about 15% of the time because of planned and forced outages. Reduction of outage levels can augment electricity generation in

The End of Coal-Fired Power Generation in Chicago [History]

IEEE Industry Applications Magazine, 2021
The war of the currents between Thomas Edison and George West inghouse didn't end in 1893 at the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago, when Westinghouse received the contract for producing the electricity to illuminate the entire exposition using his doublestopper light bulbs powered by ac.

Nonlinear modeling of NO/sub x/ emission in a coal-fired power generation plant

2004 43rd IEEE Conference on Decision and Control (CDC) (IEEE Cat. No.04CH37601), 2004
This paper investigates the construction of a simulation model for the emission of nitrogen oxide (NO/sub x/) from a coal-fired power generation plant. A polynomial NARX model has been identified using a novel identification algorithm which includes a model selection procedure based on simulation error minimization, a model reduction phase and ...
