Reducing Emissions with Clean Coal
The coal that Kideco produces is globally acknowledged as one of the cleanest grades of the fuel due to its very low sulfur content of 0.1% as well as a low ash content of 2.5%.
It can greatly reduce costs for users because it can be used without a flue gas desulfurization (FGD) facility, which is needed to meet sulfur oxides (SOx) emission regulations. Its low ash content contributes to the life extension of the power plant ash treatment facility, maintaining the least area for retreatment.
