What is clean coal?
Clean coal usually refers to the technologies used for reduction of human-made
greenhouse gas emissions causing climate change.

Clean Coal in the Philippines
Department of Energy:
key investment opportunities in the coal sector are
(1) the setting-up of coal preparation plants to upgrade the quality of
Philippine coals and make them acceptable to current coal users;
(2) the expansion of production volumes of higher-rank Philippine coalswhich can be used without upgrading and/or blending with high-quality
imported coal;
(3) the introduction of clean coal technologies (i.e., circulating fluidized
bed combustion) to ensure utilization of Philippine coals with minimal
adverse effects on the environment; and
(4) the putting-up of mine-mouth power plants designed to utilize the
abundant low-rank coals that have no alternative markets.

Circulating Fluidized Bed Combustion

Circulating Fluidized Bed
• The CFB technology uses fluidization to mix and circulate fuel particles with
limestone as they burn in a low-temperature combustion process.
• Unlike conventional steam generators that burn the fuel in a massive high-temperature flame, CFB technology does not have burners or a flame within its
furnace.
• Combustion takes place at temperatures from 800-900°C resulting in reduced
NOx formation compared with PCC. N2O formation is, however, increased. SO2
emissions can be reduced by the injection of sorbent into the bed, and the subsequent
removal of ash together with reacted sorbent.
The limestone captures the sulfur oxides as they are formed, while the low burning
temperature minimizes the formation of nitrogen oxides.
• The fuel and limestone particles are recycled over and over back to the process,
which results in high efficiency for burning the fuel, capturing pollutants, and for
transferring the fuel's heat energy into high quality steam to produce power.
• Due to the vigorous mixing, long burning time, and low temperature of
the combustion process, CFBs are fuel flexible, which means they can cleanly burn
traditional coal fuels, as well as "carbon neutral" biomass and waste fuels.
• This ability to cleanly burn virtually any combustible material greatly surpasses
the fuel limitation of conventional combustion processes.

Carbon Capture and Storage
CCS is an emerging technology.
However, it has challenges and significant issues involved.
Very Expensive – adding new material and equipment to
existing power plants can be difficult and expensive.
Wastes energy – 10%-40% energy penaltyCannot Deliver in Time – climate change urgency requires
solutions readily available in large scale.
Safety – generally unproven. Demonstrations have yet to
be done.
