Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Clean coal technologies are aimed at reducing the environmental impact of burning coal for energy. Scrubbers, CO2 capture, the use of higher-grade coal, and fluidized-bed combustion are examples of clean coal technologies. However, face masks for miners are not a clean coal technology, but rather a safety measure to protect the health of workers in coal mines.
