TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe three advanced high-efficiency power systems for which the EERC has performed supporting research and development: (1) a coal-fired supercritical steam boiler with advanced emission controls; (2) an indirectly fired combined cycle using compressed air as the working fluid in a gas turbine (GT), fired either on coal alone or on coal and natural gas; and (3) two versions of a hybrid gasifier-pressurized fluidized-bed combustor (PFBC) system.
