By optimizing the drying process, the efficiency of brown coal power plants could be increased by 46% [19]. At present, burning brown coals produces more carbon dioxide (about onethird more), than burning black coals [18]. When the moisture of the coal is reduced from 60 to 40%, the relative reduction of CO 2 /MWh can reach 30% [20].
Because approximately 3,412 Btu/hr equals 1 kW, we can easily determine the thermodynamic efficiency of a power plant by dividing 3,412 by the heat rate. For example, a coal power plant with a ...
The high energy required for separating the CO 2 can be observed in Table, which reports the efficiency for the pulverized coal (PC) and IGCC systems with and without carbon capture and storage (CCS). The table shows a decrement of efficiency of 8%10% and 6%7% for the PC and IGCC, respectively, because of the energy required for CCS.

In Germany, Vattenfall's focus is to phase out coal in our district heating in Berlin by 2030 and become climateneutral by 2040. To convert existing plants or build new district heating capacity Vattenfall will use a combination of biomass, waste heat, natural gas, powertoheat, large heat pumps and heat storage.
In addition, a further concept, which could lead to additional efficiency gains, is the pressurized fluidizedbed drying concept currently under development by Vattenfall [14]. A pilot scale prototype with a capacity of up to 10 t/h has been developed and tested up to now, while a future project for a first industrial scale prototype up to 50 t ...
However, if Na is nearly fully removed by HCl and AcOH before flotation, the vitrinite content can reach as high as % and the yield of clean coal can be significantly increased to % for AcOHtreated coal. The comprehensive efficiency is significantly improved to % from % for raw coal.
One of the most promising lignite drying technologies is using the steam as the dryer heat source and the commonly used steam dryer is the parallel flow, indirect steam rotarytube dryer (Fig. 1), which can reduce the chances of the spontaneous combustion as well the loss of shown in Fig. 1, the raw lignite is fed into the dryer and transported to the exits by the rotary motion.

In the first phase, a 115ton/hr prototype capable of drying up to 25% of the lignite fed to Coal Creek Station's 546MW Unit 2 was designed, built, and tested.
Depending on the coal drying method and the method of recovering heat from the vapours in the power plant system, an up to 5% increase in power unit efficiency can be achieved [61, 67, 78]. An additional effect of the higher power unit efficiency is a reduction in CO 2 emissions. The power unit efficiency can be further increased by adopting a ...
