Coal-Fired Power Generation Handbook by James. This book describes the steps and challenges by which electricity is produced from coal and deals with the difficulties of removing the environmental objections to the use of coal in future power plants. New technologies that could virtually eliminate the sulfur, nitrogen, and mercury pollutants released when coal is burned for electricity generation are described. In addition, technologies for the capture of greenhouse gases emitted from coal-fired power plants are described.
