Over the last 30 years, coal-fired electricity generation in the U.S. more than halved as a share of all generation, falling to a nearly half-century low. But is there a role for coal in a post-fossil fuel world? Researchers from Ohio University leveraged supercomputing at the Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center (PSC) to study how coal can be converted into useful, emissions-free materials.
