Efficiency is high because the IPFC produces both hydrogen and electricity. What is the efficiency of the IPFC for all electricity production using coal?
The calculated electrical enegy efficiency of an all electricity application of the IPFC using the range of U.S. coals is about 82% to 83%, which would be 2.2 times that of the standard coal Rankine steam cycle. The remaining energy in the fuel (18% to 17%), is in high temperature gases, which will be used to grind and dry the coal and keep the molten salt hot. The IPFC process would waste very little of the energy in the fuel. 31. Question: Gasification Efficiency.
