Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle

Basics

• A system (usually Grid Scale power plant level in most current papers) utilizing a Combined Cycle of a Gasifier of some sort, and usually a Gas Turbine with a Steam Turbine
• Can also have a seccondary steam turbine, a Thermoelectic Generator, or some other system integrated in some versions
• It was mainly developed for the application of "Clean Coal" , but it should have a future for Biomass (and RDF if in Co-Firing setup) systems
