Clean Coal: A new power generation process with high efficiency, carbon capture and zero emissions
Abstract
An environmentally friendly electricity generation process using coal gasification and solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) produces electricity with high efficiency, 99.95% carbon capture and essentially zero atmospheric emissions. Coal is gasified into syngas, cleaned and shifted to hydrogen gas to fuel SOFCs. The primary waste products, CO2 and H2O, are separated with a very small energy penalty. The carbon dioxide purity is high enough to meet …
