1coal utilization — Introduction combustion of coal or its conversion into useful solid, gaseous, and liquid products. By far the most important use of coal is in combustion, mainly to provide heat to the boilers of electric power plants. Metallurgical coke… …
2Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle — An Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle, or IGCC, is a power plant using synthetic gas (syngas). This gas is often used to power a gas turbine generator whose waste heat is passed to a steam turbine system (Combined cycle gas… …
3Gasification — This article is about the process. For the water carbonator, see Gasogene. For the automobile device, see Wood gas generator. Sustainable energy …
4Fluidized bed combustion — (FBC) is a combustion technology used in power plants. Fluidized beds suspend solid fuels on upward blowing jets of air during the combustion process. The result is a turbulent mixing of gas and solids. The tumbling action, much like a bubbling… …
5jet engine — an engine, as an aircraft engine, that produces forward motion by the rearward exhaust of a jet of fluid or heated air and gases. Also called jet, jet motor. [1940 45] * * * Any of a class of internal combustion engines that propel aircraft by… …

7Westinghouse Astronuclear Laboratory — The Westinghouse Astronuclear Laboratory (WANL) was a division of Westinghouse Electric Corporation. Established in the late 1950s to develop nuclear space propulsion technologies for the government, the lab was located, for most of its history,… …
8Alternative fuel vehicle — refers to a vehicle that runs on a fuel other than traditional gasoline or diesel; any method of powering an engine that does not involve solely petroleum (e.g. electric car, gasoline electric hybrid, solar powered). Due to a combination of heavy …
9Integrated gasification-combined cycle technology — Coal, water, and oxygen are fed to gasifier, which produces syngas. This medium Btu gas is cleaned (particulates and sulfur compounds removed) and is fed to a gas turbine. The hot exhaust of the gas turbine and heat recovered from the… …
10Producer gas — The term Producer gas has different meanings in the USA and UK.USAProducer Gas is a generic term referring to:* Wood gas : produced in a gasifier to power cars with ordinary internal combustion engines. * Town gas : manufactured gas, originally… …
