Presents a review of the Clean Coal Technology (CCT) Demonstration Program. It demonstrate & deploys a portfolio of technologies that will assure the U.S. recoverable coal reserves of 297 billion tons could continue to supply the nation's energy needs economically & in a manner that meets the nation's environmental objectives. Discusses program implementation, funding & costs, CCT Program accomplishments, CCT projects, historical perspectives & relevant legislation, program history, & environmental aspects. Includes CCT project contacts. Acronyms & abbreviations list. Photos. Charts & tables.
The Clean Coal Technology Demo. Program (CCT), a model of government & industry coop., advances the Energy Dep'ts. mission to foster a secure & reliable energy system that is environmentally & economically sustainable. With 24 of the 40 active projects having completed operations, the CCT Program has yielded CCTs that are capable of meeting existing & emerging environmental reg's. & competing in a dereg. electric power marketplace. Chapters: CCT Program Update 1998; role of the CCT program; implementation; funding & costs; accomplishments; CCT projects; historical perspective & relevant legislation; & environmental aspects.
The Clean Coal Technology Demonstration Program (known as the CCT Program) reached a significant milestone in 1996 with the completion of 20 of the 39 active projects. The CCT Program is responding to a need to demonstrate and deploy a portfolio of technologies that will assure the U.S. recoverable coal reserves of 297 billion tons could continue to supply the nations̀ energy needs economically and in a manner that meets the nations̀ environmental objectives. This portfolio of technologies includes environmental control devices that contributed to meeting the accords on transboundary air pollution recommended by the Special Envoys on Acid Rain in 1986. Operational, technical, environmental, and economic performance information and data are now flowing from highly efficient, low-emission, advanced power generation technologies that will enable coal to retain its prominent role into the next millennium. Further, advanced technologies are emerging that will enhance the competitive use of coal in the industrial sector, such as in steelmaking. Coal processing technologies will enable the entire coal resource base to be used while complying with environmental requirements. These technologies are producing products used by utilities and industrial processes. The capability to coproduce products, such as liquid and solid fuels, electricity, and chemicals, is being demonstrated at a commercial scale by projects in the CCT Program. In summary, this portfolio of technologies is satisfying the national need to maintain a multifuel energy mix in which coal is a key component because of its low-cost, availability, and abundant supply within the nations̀ borders.
The Clean Coal Technology Demo. Program, the Power Plant Improvement Initiative, and the Clean Coal Power Initiative are gov¿t. and industry co-funded programs. Their goal is to demonstrate a new generation of innovative coal-utilization technologies in a series of projects carried out across the country. These demonstrations are conducted on a commercial scale to prove the technical feasibility of the technologies and to provide technical and financial info. for future applications. Recently, it has been determined that mercury emitted by coal-fired power plants is detrimental to human health and to the environ. This report describes 3 projects that demonstrate technologies that remove mercury from coal and reduce other pollutants as well. Ill.
