The aim of this paper is to specify the role of coal‐fired power plants (CFPPs) in the formation of global emissions/harmful pollutants and to discuss the benefits of current and future technologies to minimize environmental damage. In this regard, pollutant/emission reduction technologies from CFPPs are discussed in detail by considering the environmental and global warming aspects. Pollutant gases from CFPPs around the globe have always been the most important source of environmental concern in societies. In particular, due to the burning of the coal without taking the necessary precautions, the nitrogen in the coal and combustion air and the combustible sulfur components in the coal content are oxidized and released to the atmosphere as nitrogen oxides (NO_x) and sulfur oxides (SO_x). Another pollutant from power plants is carbon monoxide (CO). CO is a colorless, odorless, poisonous gas that can remain in the atmosphere for a long time. In addition, significant amounts of carbon dioxide (CO₂) occur by virtue of the combustion of coal. CO₂ emission is in the class of greenhouse gases causing global warming. As a result of this study, the factors causing the formation of harmful pollutants in CFPPs are determined and present and potential suggestions are provided for the environmental sustainability of such facilities. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry and John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

基于化石燃料的烟气减排技术的观点

本文的目的是明确燃煤电厂（CFPP）在全球排放/有害污染物形成中的作用，并讨论当前和未来技术的好处，以最大程度地减少对环境的破坏。在这方面，通过考虑环境和全球变暖方面，详细讨论了CFPPs减少污染物/排放的技术。来自全球CFPP的污染物气体一直是社会关注环境的最重要来源。特别是由于未采取必要的预防措施而燃烧煤炭，煤和燃烧空气中的氮以及煤中的可燃硫成分被氧化并以氮氧化物（NO _x）和硫氧化物的形式释放到大气中（SO _x）。来自电厂的另一种污染物是一氧化碳（CO）。一氧化碳是一种无色，无味的有毒气体，可以在大气中长期存在。另外，由于煤的燃烧，产生大量的二氧化碳（CO ₂）。CO ₂排放属于引起全球变暖的温室气体。这项研究的结果是，确定了导致CFPPs中有害污染物形成的因素，并提出了存在的建议，并为此类设施的环境可持续性提供了潜在的建议。©2020年化学工业协会和John Wiley＆Sons，Ltd.
