Direct coal fuel cells (DCFC). The ultimate approach for a sustainable coal energy generation

An alternative for electrical energy generation from coal is presented in this article. The RFCS project "Efficient conversion of coal to electricity: direct coal fuel cells (DCFC)" is currently investigating the advantages associated to the technology. To wit: a high energetic efficiency...
