Are you saying the technology for clean coal burning does not exist or that China does not have the Technology.

""Coal Liquefaction Technology -
Converting Coal into Liquid Fuels

Every ton of coal is the equivalent of more than 5 barrels of crude oil. On this basis, America's coal wealth far exceeds the amount of recoverable oil in all of the world.""

The Investment Begins Paying Off

Today, the Clean Coal Technology Program has given the United States an unparalleled set of high-tech, environmentally clean coal-to-energy options:

21st Century Advanced Power Generation Systems -Integrated coal gasification combined cycles and pressurized fluidized bed combustors offer the potential of reducing air emissions to only a fraction of today's technology while supplying affordable electric power. The majority of the demonstration projects will be in operation in the latter 1990s, in time to provide the data needed for utility decisions in the 2000-2010 time frame;

Seems to me that Coal can be the energy source of the future like
it was in the past.
