In some coal combustion-based power plants, only a third of the energy value of coal is actually converted into electricity. A coal gasification power plant, however, typically gets dual duty from the gases it produces. First, the coal gases, cleaned of impurities, are fired in a gas turbine – much like natural gas – to generate one source ...

This is very similar in concept to how blue hydrogen is generated. An issue with coal gasification is the total production of carbon dioxide. It is estimated that syngas-derived power produces seven times the greenhouse gases as power derived from natural gas (Anderson, 2014). A coal gasification plant in China is shown in Fig. 5.2.
Library. 5.1. Gasification Introduction. Gasification is a technological process that can convert any carbonaceous (carbon-based) raw material such as coal into fuel gas, also known as synthesis gas (syngas for short).
Coal gasification is recognized as the core technology of clean coal utilization that exhibits significant advantages in hydrogen-rich syngas production and CO2 emission reduction. This review briefly discusses the recent research progress on various coal gasification techniques, including conventional coal gasification (fixed bed, …
Commercial Date: 2013. In November 2007, Duke Energy received approval from the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission to build a cleaner-coal integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) plant at Duke Energy's former 160-megawatt Edwardsport Station in Knox County, Indiana. The 798-megawatt IGCC facility is one of the cleanest and most ...

So, in summary it can be said that gasification-based power offers efficiency benefits in the use of water. Raw water use in IGCC plants is lower than in pulverized coal plants. Without CCS, PC plants have a much higher steam turbine output, requiring more cooling water and condenser duties (typical raw water use ratio of 1.7:1.0).
