Coal-fired power plant and aquatic ecosystems
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2021 Abstract Coal industry remains one of the top electric energy sources in the world. Due to the substantial water demand, thermal power plants are built on the coasts of water bodies and rivers, which causes anthropogenic pressure on surface water.
