Fortschrittliche Brennstoff-Umwandlungstechniken in zentralen und dezentralen Anlagen

The paper gives an overview of the status of and potential for developments in fossil-fired power plants. Current activities for optimizing central lignite and hard coal-fired plants by operating steam power stations or combinded heat and power stations with various concepts will be presented. Moreover, decentralized natural gas-fired CCGT plants and future fuel cell systems will be assessed.
