Clean Coal News

Almost exclusively used to refer to carbon capture and sequestration technology (CCS), Clean coal is an umbrella term used primarily to describe technologies that may reduce emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gas that arise from the burning of coal for electrical power. Typically, clean coal has been used by coal companies in reference to carbon capture and sequestration, which pumps and stores CO2 emissions underground, and to plants using an Integrated gasification combined cycle which gasifies coal to reduce CO2 emissions.
