Clean coal technology: taking a holistic approach
When clean coal technology is discussed, it sometimes seems that creating modern or 'ultra super critical' coal-fired power stations is presented as the main or even the only answer. Dr Phil Shelton, mining specialist and technical director of consultants Wardell Armstrong, argues here for a more holistic approach

CHP: a realistic near-term solution for energy efficiency
The current need for clean, efficient and economic energy has put Combined Heat & Power (CHP) into the limelight, says shentongroup Technical Service Division Manager, Marcus Dodsworth. By providing on-site power generation, waste heat recovery and system integration, CHP offers a realistic, near-term solution for exceptional energy efficiency and emission reduction, generating electricity locally while recovering heat to satisfy heating loads in buildings

Rolling bearings can offer route to lower vehicle CO2 emissions
For developers, reducing friction in internal combustion engines is now a high priority. By replacing plain bearings in the engine with rolling bearings, significant advantages can be gained, says Schaeffler — including reductions in CO2 emissions

Shedding new light on the fluorescent versus LED debate
When it comes to selecting light fittings for use in hazardous areas, there is still some confusion over whether users should opt for the latest LED lamps or for the more conventional fluorescent lights. A recent independent report published by the US Department of Energy sheds some interesting light on the debate, says Willi Steckel of Cooper Crouse-Hinds

Turning up the heat for efficient roller bearing fitting
When it comes to the mounting or dismounting of large rolling element bearings, flexible induction heaters can save significant time and resources. Ian Pledger of Schaeffler (UK) explains why this new heating method is the preferred option compared with other more traditional approaches
