This fucking sucks, the Great Satan needs to be forced to embrace the Great Seitan amerikkkavegan-seitan

(so does the rest of the first world but Great Satan/Seitan was funnier)

    It's not-as-dirty coal. It's also not really relevant for America. But it is neat

        So how does it work? Supercritical steam? Somehow it burns hotter? Have you seen the Douyin videos selling coal btw?

          Basically, at supercritical pressures, the temperature drop converting it back to liquid water in the turbine results in a larger temperature drop, and thus more of the energy being translated into mechanical work. Ultra-supercritical means the temperature drop is even more dramatic than in other supercritical steam generators and thus even more efficient.

          I have never seen a Douyin video, I don't really do social media
