Clean Coal Technologies

Clean coal technologies refer to a range of methods aimed at reducing the environmental impact of coal energy production. These technologies seek to minimize harmful emissions, such as carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide, which contribute to air pollution and climate change. Methods include carbon capture and storage (CCS), which captures carbon emissions from power plants and stores them underground, and advanced combustion techniques that improve efficiency and reduce pollutants. Ultimately, clean coal technologies aim to make coal a more environmentally friendly energy source while addressing energy needs.
