The provided linear process diagram displays the method of electricity generation from a specific type of coal, illustrating each stage of the process.
Overall, the procedure involves multiple stages, starting from coal extraction and culminating in electricity production, with various intermediary process that enhance efficiency.
Initially, coal is extracted from a mine and transported to a crusher, where it is reduced in size. Once crushed, the coal undergoes a cooling and cleaning process. During this stage, residual coal is cleaned while a portion of the gas is collected and sent to a gasifier, accompanied by the release of waste heat.
The cleaned coal is then burned to generate energy at a gas power station, which also produces additional waste heat. Simultaneously, the collected gas is heated in the gasifier and used to power the gas power plant, contributing to increased energy production. Finally, the electricity generated is distributed to residential and commercial areas.
