As coal is burned in a power plant to produce electricity, there is a significant amount of heat generated from the boiler that typically goes unused. However, recently many coal-fired power plants are looking to utilize this waste heat to produce ethanol. The most expensive part of an ethanol plant is the boiler required to produce the ethanol.

between 0.80.9 kg/kWh, seven plants use between 0.9- 1.0 kg/kWh, and at three plants - coal usage exceeds 1.0 kg/kWh. Hence the efficiency of the plants and the coal usage per unit of electricity generation also differ at each plant. There is a need to modernize India’s thermal power plants and reduce the coal usage per unit of

Coal is a combustible black or brownish-black sedimentary rock, formed as rock strata called coal seams.Coal is mostly carbon with variable amounts of other elements, chiefly hydrogen, sulfur, oxygen, and nitrogen. Coal is formed when dead plant matter decays into peat and is converted into coal by the heat and pressure of deep burial over millions of years.
