Global Clean Coal Technologies Market 2014-2018: Key Vendors are Alstom, Dongfang Electric, Foster Wheeler, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Shanghai

Clean coal refers to the process of reducing carbon emissions and other harmful pollutants that arise from the burning of coal for power generation to the minimum possible level. SC, USC, and IGCC technologies are clean coal technologies that are widely used for setting up new-build coal-fired power plants.

Clean coal refers to the process of reducing carbon emissions and other harmful pollutants that arise from the burning of coal for power generation to the minimum possible level. SC, USC, and IGCC technologies are clean coal technologies that are widely used for setting up new-build coal-fired power plants.

The more sophisticated the technology, the higher the steam pressure and temperature requirement is for operating the plant. As a result, the thermal efficiencies improve with the usage of more sophisticated technology. As well as these three technologies, CCS is also an upcoming technology, which is capable of reducing carbon emissions drastically by 80-90 percent. This technology is used in conjunction with SC, USC or IGCC plants.

The analysts forecast the Global Clean Coal Technologies market to grow at a CAGR of 8.2 percent over the period 2013-2018.

The Global Clean Coal Technologies market can be segmented into three technologies: Supercritical, Ultra-supercritical, and Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle.

The report, the Global Clean Coal Technologies Market 2014-2018, has been prepared based on an in-depth market analysis with inputs from industry experts. The report covers the Americas, and the EMEA and APAC regions; it also covers the Global Clean Coal Technologies market landscape and its growth prospects in the coming years. The report also includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market.

The focus area of several governments worldwide is to develop new technologies and more importantly, deploy them commercially. IGCC and CCS are relatively newer and technically viable technologies, which have still not gained popularity worldwide because of their higher capital and operational costs. Presently, very few IGCC plants have become commercially operational in the US, Europe, and Japan.

However, the scenario is changing as several new IGCC plants are under construction and are being set up in countries such as China, Japan, Korea, and the US. CCS is another technology, which is at a very nascent stage of growth. However, considering its inherent capability of reducing carbon emissions drastically, countries worldwide are placing emphasis on the development of this technology further so that it can be commercially used.. Several countries have also initiated research on advanced USC technology, which is expected to increase the efficiency of power plants to more than 50 percent as well as reduce carbon emissions significantly.
