摘      要：Energy is important for human survival and *** September 2020,the Chinese government announced that“China aims to have their CO_(2) emissions peak before 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality before 2060.As China’s reformation and opening-up proceeds into its fifth decade,this new vision for its future is in line with that of the world’s major economies in terms of the need to reach net zero emissions globally by the mid-21stcentury[1].However,coal-fueled thermal power generation is currently dominant and accounts for more than 70%of the total amount of power generated in China,making it the world’s largest energy consumer and carbon *** on the country’s domestic resources,namely the abundance of coal and scarcity of oil and gas,it would be difficult to fundamentally change this coal-based energy structure in the short *** 2021,the global total energy sector was responsible for 36.3 Gt of CO_(2) emissions,including approximately 12 Gt from China,which thus accounts for one-third of the total global emissions[2].The demand for efficiency,energy savings,and emissions reduction in the power generation industry has become increasingly *** need has arisen to enhance ways in which to use coal cleanly and efficiently,reduce the consumption thereof,and replace coal with other forms of *** addition,carbon emissions need to be lowered by promoting the adoption of alternative power generation technologies that are more energy *** would require transformation away from coal power and the exploration of clean,efficient,flexible,and safe forms of energy as the main future development directions[3].
