1. Introduction. Coal will continue to be a dominant energy source also in the next decades. It was responsible for 41% of the world power generation in 2012 and is projected to be around 31% in 2040 [1].Coalfired power plants have been in continuous development for more than 100 years with considerable efforts to improve the capacity and thermal efficiency.
The process of coal combustion results in the generation of coal combustion residues (CCRs). India has diverse quality of coal reserves, which contain 3055% ash. Annual production of CCRs has already crossed 120 MT and with the present rate of growth (810%) of power generation it is expected that this figure would be 175 MT by 2012 [ 8 ].
from coal combustion are primarily sulfur dioxide (SO 2), with a much lower quantity of sulfur xide (SO 3) and gaseous sulfates. These compounds form as the organic and pyritic sulfur in the coal are oxidized during the combustion process. On average, about 95 percent of the sulfur present in bituminous coal will be emitted as gaseous SO x
About 80% of the combustion residue in a pulverized coalfiredpower plant appears as coal fly ash (Jankowski et al., 2006). The pattern of global generation of coal fly ash (CFA) in the last decades surveyed and the generation rate has almost doubled since then (Manz, 1997). The conventional method for disposal of TPP solid wastes is landfilling.

The FlynnWallOzawa (FWO) and KissingerAkahiraSunose (KAS) models were employed to explore cocombustion interactions and kinetic parameters.
At the heart of any thermal power plant is the process of combustion, where coal is burned to produce heat. This heat is then used to generate steam, which drives turbines connected to generators, ultimately producing electricity. To understand this process better, let's delve into the different components and cycles involved. 1. Boiler

A fossil fuel power station is a thermal power station which burns a fossil fuel, such as coal or natural gas, to produce fuel power stations have machinery to convert the heat energy of combustion into mechanical energy, which then operates an electrical prime mover may be a steam turbine, a gas turbine or, in small plants, a reciprocating gas engine.
In particular, the combustion of fuel in thermal power plants is a major cause of largescale CO 2 generation and accounts for the dominant proportion of the electricity generation sector. In the field, coal, a solid fuel, is mainly used in coalfired power plants, and gaseous fuels such as natural gas are mainly used in combined cycle power ...
Working Principle of a Thermal Plant. The working fluid is water and steam. This is called feed water and steam cycle.

These turbines convert the heat released (from burning coal) into power or work, otherwise known as 'thermal efficiency'. In fact, a one percent increase in thermal efficiency can result in a 23 percent decrease in CO2 emissions. This improves the performance of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) programs and reduces the associated economic costs.
