Artificial Intelligence Helps Coal Power Plants Reduce Power Consumption by 36% and Capture More CO2

Scientists at the University of Surrey in the UK have successfully used artificial intelligence technology to adjust the systems of coal power plants, achieving a 36.3% reduction in power consumption and increased CO2 capture. Through predictive modeling, the system can real-time reduce the use of water pumps based on CO2 supply reductions or renewable energy shortages, thus improving carbon capture efficiency. The research results were published in the journal 'Reaction Chemistry & Engineering', contributing to sustainable development and UN goals. By leveraging artificial intelligence to adjust the systems, compared to traditional methods, there are...
