Burning coal could become clean, saving lives and the planet.
Coal is a major source of electricity, but burning it releases harmful pollutants into the air. Scientists are working on clean coal technologies to reduce these pollutants and make energy production more sustainable. These technologies include capturing and storing carbon, removing harmful gases like NO x and SO x , and converting coal into cleaner fuels like hydrogen. By combining different clean coal technologies, we can generate energy more efficiently and reduce the impact on the environment and human health.
