	Plant Layout
	System Design
	TG & Boiler Performance
	BOP Equipment Design
	Plant Performance
	Cost Estimation
	Cost of Power and Steam Generation

Uniqueness of STCOGEN is analysis of multi-fuel fired power plant firing various combinations of SOLID / LIQUID / GAS Fuels.

STCOGEN has build-in FUEL DATABASE which include BIOMASS fuels along with a variety of SOLID / LIQUID / GAS FUELS.
