Potential of Advanced Coal and Gas Combustion Technologies in GHG Emission Reduction in Developing Countries from Technical, Environmental and Economic Perspective
GHG emission from the developing countries is projected to contribute to 61％ of the global GHG emission by 2030.With less economic resources, the developing countries face the unique challenge of balancing their economy growth and GHG emission reduction.The prevailing technologies such as renewable energy are still expensive, dependent on sufficient local renewable resources and require high level of technical expertise.Therefore, the developing countries cannot adopt these technologies in large scale to reduce the GHG emission effectively.Alternative technologies need to be explored.In this paper, the potential of advanced coal and gas combustion technologies in reducing GHG emission in developing countries was studied.From the study, the advanced combustion technologies were found to be more cost effective than wind and photovoltaic technologies.
