High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Advanced steam technology (sometimes known as Modern Steam) reflects an approach to the technical development of the steam engine intended for a wider variety of applications than has recently been the case. Particular attention has been given to the long-term endemic problems that led to the demise of steam power in small- to medium-scale commercial applications: including excessive pollution, maintenance costs, labour intensive operation, low power/weight ratio, and low overall thermal efficiency; where steam power has generally now been superseded by the internal combustion engine or by electrical power drawn from an electrical grid. The only steam installations that are in widespread use are the highly efficient thermal power plants used for generating electricity on a large scale.
