polygeneration

There are different kinds of carbon capture: precombustion usually refers to capturing CO2 from coal gasification (such as polygeneration, coal-toliquids, or IGCC) processes, post-combustion is associated with capturing carbon from the waste gases from conventional combustion (such as supercritical or ultra-super critical power plants), and oxy-fuel combustion is separation post oxygen-rich combustion.

In natural-gas-poor, coal-rich regions, polygeneration based on coal gasification is promising.

Chapter 7 2000

Utility policies have often made doing so difficult, but under the competitive market conditions towards which electric systems are evolving in many regions, cogeneration and polygeneration systems will often fare well.

Chapter 7 2000

Rapidly growing polygeneration activity is already under way in several countries based on the gasification of low-quality petroleum feedstocks - activity that is helping to pave the way for coal-based systems.

Chapter 7 2000

Synthetic fuels produced through polygeneration will be based on natural gas if it is readily available.

Chapter 7 2000

Six areas are essential for successful development and implementation of sustainable and economically competitive bio-energy systems: technologies, production, markets, polygeneration, externalities, and policy.

Chapter 9 2000

Barriers to widespread deployment of advanced cogeneration and polygeneration systems are mainly institutional.

Chapter 7 2000

To compete with coal (chapter 8), biomass energy may have to follow a polygeneration strategy - coproducing electricity, fuels, fibres, and food from biomass.

Chapter 9 2000

Although synthetic liquid fuels made in single-product facilities are not competitive, superclean syngas-derived synthetic fuels (such as synthetic middle distillates and dimethyl ether) produced in polygeneration facilities that make several products simultaneously may soon be.
