The emission control norms notified by the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change in December 2015 have narrowed the particulate matter (PM) emission limits for coal-based power plants considerably. As against the earlier range […]
Emissions from coal combustion include particulates, sulphur oxides (SOx), nitrogen oxides (NOx) and high levels of CO2. Emission control can be undertaken by coal-based power plants at various levels. The pollutant ingredient can be removed […]
Water is one of the key input requirements for thermal power generation. It is required for various uses like process cooling in the condenser, ash disposal, removal of heat generated in plant auxiliaries and various […]
Before the new environment norms were put in place in December 2015, there were no rules to control nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions at thermal power plants (TPPs) in India, despite the fact that coal-based power […]
Indian coal has a high ash content of 35-45 per cent, and its combustion causes significant air pollution. The practice of surface mining or open cut mining for coal extraction in India contributes to the […]
