It describes new technologies that could virtually eliminate the sulfur, nitrogen, and mercury pollutants released when coal is burned for electricity generation. In addition, the text details technologies for greenhouse gases capture from coal-fired power plants, as well as for preventing such emissions from contributing to global warmiPower GenerationCoal-fired power plantsCoal-fired power plants.333.7932Speight James G17073MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK996204488103316Coal-fired power generation handbook2218611UNISA
