Energy Conversion Alternatives Study (ECAS). Integrated Coal Gasifier/Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell Powerplant Conceptual Design and Implementation Assessment.

摘要

This report describes results of an Energy Conversion Alternatives Study (ECAS) Phase II conceptual design and implementation assessment study of an integrated coal gasifier/molten carbonate fuel cell power plant. Conceptual designs are prepared in sufficient detail to describe anticipated power plant performance,capital cost,cost of electricity,natural resource requirements,and environmental impact. This report is comprised of the following: a description of the conceptual design;an estimate of the design characteristics;the technology and design status; a description of a research development and demonstration plan;and a discussion of factors affecting implementation.
