"District heating" asociado a generación de energía
Strict emissions standards pose challenges for coal- and petroleum coke-fired power plants. Although complex and expensive, Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC ) plants can be attractive solutions when coal or petcoke is available at low cost and when also used to produce marketable secondary products for other industries.
On the pulse of a cleaner, smarter energy future
Meeting global energy needs while minimizing environmental impact is a major challenge for the world’s power producers. Alfa Laval has solutions and equipment for integrated gasification and combined cycle (IGCC) power plants that improve energy efficiency, reduce costs, increase reliability and output, and minimize environmental impact.
