There are three main types of coal gasifiers namely, moving (also known as fixed) bed, fluidised bed and entrained flow. In a moving bed gasifier, the coal is fed through the top of the gasifier and the oxygen and steam usually from the bottom. The gases flow upwards through the bed of coal and the slag is withdrawn through the bottom.

The pulverised coal burner consists of swirl air vanes, annular type coal nozzle and an oil gun, which is located in the centre of the burner (Fig. 1 (b)). When considering ammonia co-firing with pulverised coal, the injection points are very important for NOx reduction and complete burning of ammonia.
For example, high coal flow to burners can create carbon-rich zones with a reducing atmosphere that leads to increased slagging and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions. …
The coal nozzle comprises a duplex tube; the pulverised coal. CO 2 reduction by ammonia co-firing. Since ammonia is a carbon-free gas, CO 2 emissions should decrease in proportion to the increase of co-firing rate. Fig. 3 shows the results obtained, when ammonia is co-fired with pulverised coal. Ammonia supply points are …

The biggest advantage of the IGCC is its capability to use a wide range of coals and other fuels. Gasification of a large number of fuels apart from coal like biomass or municipal has been demonstrated. Current cost of IGCC is higher than the Ultra supercritical pulverised coal fired plants without CO2 capture.
Coal is the most abundant energy source, and around 40% of the world's electricity is produced by coal combustion. The emission generated through it put a constraint on power production by coal combustion. There is a need to reduce the emissions generated through it to utilize the enormous energy of coal for power production.
