A team led by the University of Alberta has confirmed that inorganic mercury (Hg) found worldwide in ocean water is transformed into monomethylmercury (MMHg)—a potent and bio-accumulative neurotoxin—in the seawater. In a 1991 paper discussing concerns with mercury and monomethylmercury, William F. 159-166.

IGCC plants gasify solid fuels into syngas, which then is used by a gas turbine combined-cycle system to generate electricity, providing a cleaner, economical coal-to-power option. The technology proposed for the Hydrogen Energy California plant would convert petroleum coke, coal or a combination of each into syngas.

Compared with burning coal, natural gas emits about half the carbon dioxide and substantially less soot, mercury and sulfur. Natural gas must be developed with safeguards to reduce impacts on water, air quality, land, nearby communities and ecosystems. —Mark Zoback, a professor of geophysics and NGI’s director.

A new report from the National Research Council examines and, when possible, estimates, “hidden” costs of energy production and use—such as the damage air pollution imposes on human health—that are not reflected in market prices of coal, oil, other energy sources, or the electricity and gasoline produced from them. cents to about 1.7
