Development of Life Cycle Water-Demand Coefficients for Coal-Based Power Generation Technologies
Download2015-01-01
This paper aims to develop benchmark coefficients for water consumption and water withdrawals over the full life cycle of coal-based power generation. This study considered not only all of the unit operations involved in the full electricity generation life cycle but also compared different...

Integrated techno-economic and environmental assessments of sixty scenarios for co-firing biomass with coal and natural gas
Download2016-01-01
Agbor, Ezinwa, Oyedun, Adetoyese Olajire, Zhang, Xiaolei, Kumar, Amit
Displacement of fossil fuel-based power through biomass co-firing could reduce the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from fossil fuels. In this study, data-intensive techno-economic models were developed to evaluate different co-firing technologies as well as the configurations of these...
