As part of the European Green Deal, EU aims to become climate-neutral and reach net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. Lignite has long dominated electricity system Greece, providing cheap reliable energy, given abundant low-cost domestic resources at cost increased emission. In line with its national international commitments climate action, Greece needs urgently transform energy overcome ...

Western Macedonia, located in North-western Greece, is largely dominated by lignite mining and lignite-fired power plants, which are a significant part of the country’s economy. However, electricity generation related activities among greatest sources air pollutants. In this study, we focus on quality Macedonia based measurements Particulate Matter (PM2.5 PM10) over 12-year period (from 2010 to...

The mineral and chemical composition of magnetic (tailing fraction) non – (clean coal products from the dry separation samples with high ash sulfur contents obtained Çanakkale Çan lignite (S1) Manisa Kula Pabuçlu (S2) were investigated in this study. feasibility technique for minerals matrix was identified as function types particle sizes. depends on fragments being weakly diamagnetic, while mo...

Abstract High-sulfur petroleum coke (PC) as solid waste has high treatment cost. Gasification technology can utilize PC and lignite for co-gasification. Organically combining the two is key to expanding adaptability of gasification raw materials. This work used thermal analysis study reaction systems in a CO 2 atmosphere. The results show that starting end temperatures co-gasification lignite/h...

The need for flexible power generation is growing worldwide as the energy transition altering operational regimes of thermal plants. Plasma ignition systems, an alternative technology to conventional start-up method with natural gas or oil firing, offer a cost- and energy-efficient process in pulverized fuel stations. application plasma systems cold start-ups using different qualities pre-dried...
