Oxygen is supplied to the cathode, and within the cell, the fine coal powder undergoes electrochemical oxidation across an oxide membrane, yielding electricity directly – without any intermediate steam cycle or mechanical turbine.
What the fuck, it’s not boiling water this time
It says the coal has to be processed? And what happens to the by product?
The article literally answers this:
At the anode outlet, the high-purity carbon dioxide generated by the reaction is captured in situ and catalytically converted into valuable chemical feedstocks such as synthesis gas or mineralised into compounds like sodium bicarbonate.
Man imagine how much meth you could buy by stealing one of these catalytic converters
