Oxy-fuel combustion performs better for the retrofit of exist pulverized coal plants after the evaluation of efficiency, retrofit cost and O&M cost. China is currently and will depending on coal for its energy for a long time. Plenty of PC plants are used in existing power plants due to its lower coal consumption. One way to reduce CO2 emission with CCS is to equip existing power plants with appliances for capturing CO2 without modifying substantially the material and the process of generation. This situation is totally different with United States and European countries. IGCC is a promising technology which has been developed for decades in those developed countries. However, in China, the technology is not as mature as developed countries. China needs to find a CO2 capture technology which is fixed for China’s situation. After the comparisons it is concluded that although IGCC with precombustion is a promising technology in European countries and United States, oxyfuel combustion is more suitable based on China’s situation date: 2010 date_type: published publisher: Universidad de Girona official_url: http://www.udg.edu/tabid/13890/language/ca-ES/default.aspx full_text_status: public pres_type: paper place_of_pub: Girona, España event_title: X Reunión del Grupo Español del Carbon, GEC event_location: Gerona, España event_dates: 09/05/2010 - 12/05/2010 event_type: conference institution: Minas department: Ingenieria_Quimica2 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9788484583080 book_title: Actas de la X Reunión del Grupo Español del Carbon, GEC rights: by-nc-nd citation: Zhao, Xue and Clemente Jul, María del Carmen (2010).
