Description and Table of Contents
Description
These conference papers give an overview of the effects of power-station operation on the environment. They show how legislation in the UK and Europe on the control of emissions may influence the cost of power stations and thus their viability as options for meeting future power needs.
Table of Contents
- Environmental legislation and its role in plant selection
- the full environemntal cost of power generation - a rational approach to emission control
- advances in coal corner firing technology
- dry removal of gaseous pollutants from flue gases with circulating fluid bed scrubber
- the control of diesel power plant exhaust emissions
- controlling NOx emissions at diesel power plants
- vibration and noise of diesel engines
- inert gases to reduce emissions and improve integrated asification combined cycle performance
- fuel cells for power generation
- requirements for a tidal power demonstration scheme
- the environmental impact of wind energy
- the nuclear fuel cycle dry storage versus reprocessing environmental options
- nuclear energy in a sustainable future
- the best practical environmental option for power.
