How much coal does a 100 MW power plant use daily?

How much coal is required to generate 1 ton of steam?
On average, it takes about 0.4 to 0.5 tons of coal to generate 1 ton of steam in a coal-fired power plant. However, this can vary depending on the efficiency of the plant and the quality of the coal being used.
Does nuclear power pollute?
Not really. You receive 100 times as much radiation from coal power plant pollution than you do from nuclear power plant leaks.
How much power does a coal burning power plant make?
The power varies, but sizes in the range of 2000 to 3000 megawatt are common.
How much energy is generated from coal?
The amount of energy generated from coal can vary based on factors such as the type and quality of coal, the efficiency of the power plant, and the technology used. On average, coal-fired power plants convert about 33-40% of the energy in coal into electricity.
How much electrical power can be provided by coal?
how much electrical power can be provided by coal
How do you calculate coal usage to produce 1 MW power?
First in order to calculate the heat content of a particular type of coal, an ultimate analysis must be done. Then the combustion efficiency of the coal must be calculated, the boiler efficiency is then determined by a boiler "acceptance test", or heat balance. The steam is then run through an engine driving a generator to determine the total plant efficiency thus determining how much coal is burned to produce a set amount of electricity. Several publications on Steam power plant operation explain these efficiency tests in more detail.
How much does it cost to make a coal fired power plant?
A conventional plant costs about $780 million to build, according to Bechtel...a comparable coal-gas plant would cost about $975 million. source: http://money.cnn.com/2004/10/18/news/economy/coal/
How much coal was used each day?
The amount of coal used each day can vary widely based on factors such as the size of the power plant, its efficiency, and the electricity demand. On average, a coal-fired power plant might consume thousands of tons of coal per day to generate electricity.
How much energy dose coal power produce?
Coal power plants typically produce around 2-3 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity for every pound of coal burned. The energy produced can vary depending on the efficiency of the plant.
Can a nuclear plant generate as much power as a coal plant?
Single nuclear PWR units can now range up to 1600 MWe output, so I think that is comparable with any single coal fired unit
How much fuel is needed to run a power plant for 1 day?
The amount of fuel needed to run a power plant for one day will vary depending on the type of fuel used (e.g., coal, natural gas, nuclear). For example, a coal-fired power plant may require several thousand tons of coal per day, while a natural gas power plant may need thousands of cubic meters of natural gas. The specific fuel consumption rate of the power plant and its efficiency will also impact the amount of fuel needed.
