Fourth IEA Conference on Clean Coal Technologies

The world is facing a major challenge to meet its future energy supplies. The
IEA's Reference Scenario of World Energy Outlook 2007, projects growth in
world energy demand of 55% between 2005 and 2030. Fossil fuels will continue
to hold the dominant share in the world's energy mix, and world demand for coal
will continue to grow, rising in absolute terms by more than 70% between 2005
and 2030. These trends bring a continued growth in CO2 emissions and a threat
to the energy security of most countries.

The latest technologies for the sustainable use of coal will help to meet the
challenges of our energy future. With our united influence, this forthcoming event will address the wide range of coal-relevant issues and will provide a high-level forum for the exchange of information and expertise. The conference will cover the important topics of clean coal technology: from coal gasification to carbon capture and storage. At the most senior level we shall address strategic and political considerations to promote and advance clean coal technology. Keynote speakers will comment on the latest strategic assessments.

CCT2009 / 3rd Freiberg Topics list for the Technical Paper/Poster sessions

All aspects of clean coal technologies (CCTs); integrated coal gasification combined-cycle (IGCC) technologies; and conversion of coal, natural gas, biomass and wastes to liquids (XtL).

Combination of search terms

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.

Brackets

You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).

Phrases

Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.

Selection criteria

You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).

If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
