Test results from the NCCC allow
~40MW more output than would
have been possible from higher
Steam/CO ratios required in
refinery applications
• 15+ years of development at the NCCC
• 524MW on syngas w/ 65+% CO2 capture
• CO2 & other emissions ~equal to NG
• 3 MM TPY CO2 for EOR
• Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) plus treated effluent from City of Meridian, MS and moisture from coal drying as makeup water

Coal-fired Generation Emission Rates
Between 1970 and 2008 U.S. SO2, NOx, and particulate emissions from coal-‐fired electric power plants were reduced by 82 to 96%, while coal-‐fired generation almost doubled.
Between 1990 and 2010 Southern Company’s SO2, NOx, and mercury emissions from coal-‐fired electric power plants were reduced by 60 to 80%, while coal-‐fired generation increased by 40%.
