Coal's Long-Term Future in India, page-4

Fwiw – seeing as anything goes these days – it’s interesting that THERMAX is piloting an IGCC tech with Turkish, Polish and Indian lignite. The best fuel for IGCC is, of course, thermal coal, or perhaps a BCE.

MILENA goes to India

Outside the Netherlands, there is also much interest in this technology. For example, ECN is working together with Thermax, an Indian manufacturer of incineration plants. The company has the ambition to supply all of India with green energy, but also has plans for other parts of Asia. ECN technology is thus reaching an enormous growth market!
High ash coal

The collaboration between ECN and Thermax comprises two projects at the moment. In the first project (Optimash), Thermax and ECN are partners, working on optimising the gasification technology for a certain type of coal. This coal is the so-called high ash coal that can be found in massive quantities in the Indian soil, but also in Turkey and Poland. This type of coal contains a relatively high share of ash, which makes it difficult to deploy it efficiently as fuel. The aim of the project is to boost the conversion efficiency of high ash coal to electricity from the current 20 to 25 percent to 30 to 35 percent in four years. Coal continues to be a ‘dirty’ fuel that emits CO2. However, if less fuel is needed to produce the same amount of energy, this is an environmental gain.

WP 3 Design, manufacturing, testing of the pilot gasification system

Leader: THERMAX

Objectives:
Set up a 1 MWth pilot-scale plant based on the improved design as a result of the efforts made in WP1 and WP2, and operate it up to 10 bar at THERMAX.Operate the plant and generate data so that gasification models for geometric modifications and scale-up can be refined further.Using validated models, make design improvements and test the system performances.

Task 3.1. Process design (THERMAX, ECN, IITM, CNRS) (M6-M13)
Task 3.2. Basic engineering (THERMAX) (M11-M21)
Subtask 3.2.1 System level basic engineering
Subtask 3.2.2 Component level engineering
Task 3.3. Detailed engineering (THERMAX) (M15-M25)
Task 3.4. Manufacturing (THERMAX) (M20-M28)
Task 3.5. Procurement (THERMAX) (M17-M28)
Task 3.6. Installation and commissioning (THERMAX) (M26-M33)
Task 3.7. Trials, data collection and analysis (THERMAX, ECN, CNRS) (M33-M48)
Task 3.8. Operation and maintenance (THERMAX) (M33-M48)

This is the global company ECT is in business with. I don't think Thermax will stop at one CDP in Tamilnadu. IMO.
