MIT Invents New Coating to Reduce Plant Emissions

The use of a novel coating by a mechanical power plant can significantly reduce part of the carbon dioxide emissions. Professor of Machinery, who helped develop new coatings, said: “A coal-fired power plant that uses this coating will reduce the annual emissions equivalent to 4,000 cars on the road.” The coating increases the efficiency of steam condensers in key parts of a power plant. . In power plants, fuel combustion will generate steam in a rotating turbine. Because steam is generated from the turbine, it needs to be cooled and condensed into water. This creates a suction force that helps turn the turbine.
This coating helps to increase the suction. Water generally accumulates on the walls of the pipe and slows down its cooling process. The new coating will repel water and keep it. For decades, researchers have been trying to develop such a coating. According to different methods and materials, the coating is either too thick or too thin to withstand poor steam. In order to get the correct thickness, MIT researchers invented a new coating. So far this coating technology has only been tested in the laboratory. Dealing with power plants to test the technology. Although the technology can help emissions, the main reason for its use in power plants is that the use of this technology is likely to help them save fuel, and plant operators can save nearly half a million dollars annually.
