MCFC GENERATING SYSTEM BY MEANS OF COAL IN CHINA

摘要

The kinds and the distribution of the coal in China were investigated. The results indicate that the 80% coal in China is suitable to produce the fue1 used in the fuel cell by the method of coal gasification. Then this paper is intended to analysis the possibility of utilization and development of tlle coal fired fuel cell power plant in China, that is composed of the molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC) and the gas produced by the coal gasification technology. And an MCFC ST (steam turbine) combined generating system was designed, in which the coal gasification is used as the fuel. Its total generating efficiency is about 60%, more than that of the coal fired power plant.
