  • Subhes C. Bhattacharyya

Abstract

Coal based thermal power has emerged as the major source of electric power in India over the years and this trend is expected to continue even in the future. The environmental effects of thermal power generation are becoming a major concern. Here we present a review of the status of environmental control at present in terms of regulation and their application in the power industry and study the environmental issues of and options for the thermal power generation.
