Well the scrubbing of traditional pollutants has improved a lot in the last 10 years. While new plants can use such, most coal plants were built prior to this newer technology. And some countries,India and China for example, may not wish to pay the price premium for this newer technology, even for new plants. As far as direct co2 sequestration during coal generation (or gasification) its only being used in smaller-scale and experimental facilities ar this point. But apparently is doing the sequestering (underground) at a "reasonably" low price. If coal and oil were priced to reflect the correct price signal, total social and explicit costs, then such currently available scrubbing of traditional pollutants and sequestering of CO2, would be paid for by consumers / end-users. And retirement of older more polluting plants would be accelerated. ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Great things are happening at Yahoo! Groups.
