Tools Exist For Safer Coal Mines Fatal disasters might be averted if existing tech was more fully deployed. Getting Power From Coal Without Digging It Up An Alberta project will transform coal deep beneath the ground into gas. Using Rust to Capture CO2 from Coal Plants Process could capture carbon more cheaply. Is China Beating the U.S. in Clean Tech? The president of NRDC points to a growing investment by China in energy technologies. Gasifying coal underground could slash the cost of carbon capture--but don't hold your breath for it to happen. A novel gasification process for low-quality coal heads to China. Mixing Solar with Coal to Cut Costs A new strategy could reduce coal plant emissions and cut the cost of solar power. Combining synthetic biology and solar technology could provide a way to trap carbon dioxide and produce fuel. Converting coal to natural gas is our best strategy for limiting carbon dioxide emissions today. A new process extracts high-value carbon black from methane. Fuel from Coal-Eating Microbes A process for converting coal into natural gas could help reduce emissions. Observing Buried Carbon Dioxide A project proves that millions of tons of the sequestered gas can be safely monitored. [1]
