The document summarizes details about the proposed Rampal Thermal Power Plant in Bangladesh. It will be located in Rampal, Bagerhat district, about 14 km from the Sundarbans mangrove forest. The 1320 MW super critical coal power plant will sit on over 1834 acres of land. The project is a joint venture between Bangladesh and India and aims to provide reliable and affordable electricity, but faces opposition over environmental concerns about impacts on the Sundarbans.

10. Environmental issues
 Department of Environment - 1 August 2013
 Environmental Impact Assessment - 2016 Unesco
 Plant needs 4.72 millions ton coal per years.
 The plant would draw 219,600 cubic meters of water every
day
 fly ash, coal dust and sulphur, and other toxic chemicals.

11. Opposition
 Citizen opposition
 Political opposition

12. Government Position
 Rejects the allegations that the coal-based power plant would
adversely affect the world's largest mangrove forest.
 The controversy over the power plant and its impact on the
Sundarbans was "not based on facts."
 The plant will not negatively affect the mangrove forest
because the emission of green house gas will be kept at the
minimum level
 Importing high quality coal, build a 275-meter high chimney.

13. Super critical
 The water running through it works as a supercritical
fluid.
 Critical point under high pressures and temperatures,
specifically at 22 MPs and 374oC.
 Efficiencies can reach around 44%
