Tribology in coal-fired power plants [PDF]
Tribology International, 2005 Abstract Material wear and degradation is of great importance to the economy of South Africa especially within the mining, agriculture, manufacturing and power generation fields. It has been found that unexpected and high rates of fly-ash erosion occur at certain sections of power plants, this is particularly evident at the Majuba power station.

Coal-Fired Power Plant Retirements in the U.S [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2021 We summarize the history of U.S. coal-fired plant retirements over the last decade, describe planned future retirements, and forecast the remaining operating life for every operating coal-fired generator. We summarize the technology and location trends that are correlated with the observed retirements.

The Fate and Behavior of Mercury in Coal-Fired Power Plants [PDF]
Journal of the Air & Waste Management Association, 2002 For the past 22 years in the Netherlands, the behavior of Hg in coal-fired power plants has been studied extensively. Coal from all over the world is fired in Dutch power stations. First, the Hg concentrations in these coals were measured. Second, the fate of the Hg during combustion was established by performing mass balance studies. On average, 43 +/-

Mercury emissions of a coal fired power plant in Germany [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2016 Abstract. Hg/SO2, Hg/CO, NOx/SO2 emission ratios (ERs) in the plume of coal fired power plant (CFPP) Lippendorf near Leipzig in Germany were determined within the European Tropospheric Mercury Experiment (ETMEP) aircraft campaign in August 2013. GOM fraction of mercury emissions was also assessed.

Should a Coal-Fired Power Plant be Replaced or Retrofitted? [PDF]
Environmental Science & Technology, 2007 In a cap-and-trade system, a power plant operator can choose to operate while paying for the necessary emissions allowances, retrofit emissions controls to the plant, or replace the unit with a new plant. Allowance prices are uncertain, as are the timing and stringency of requirements for control of mercury and carbon emissions.

Mercury policy and regulations for coal-fired power plants [PDF]
Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2011 Mercury is a high-priority regulatory concern because of its persistence and bioaccumulation in the environment and evidence of its having serious adverse effects on the neurological development of children.Mercury is released into the atmosphere from both natural and anthropogenic sources.

Transformation of coal-fired power plants on steam-gas power plants
Paliva, 2021 Currently in the EU there are bigger tendencies to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide and phasing out of coal mining and combustion. There are some possibilities to transform current coal-fired power plant to steam-gas one. The advantages of steam-gas power plant are lower amount of emissions and higher efficiency unlike coal-fired one and stability of
