Coal Fired Boiler two-stage flue gas desulfurization (FGD)
A major pulp and paper mill located in New England, USA was faced with a control order to reduce SO2 and a schedule challenge to meet the order deadline and steam requirements. In addition, the customer was looking for ways to save reagent cost. Macrotek was selected to design and build two wet FGD systems for two 100,000 lbs/hr medium sulfur coal fired boilers. The design included a two-stage ...

Mercury and other trace elements in Ohio River fish collected near coal‐fired power plants: Interspecific patterns and consideration of consumption risks
Many coal‐fired electric generating facilities in the US are discharging higher loads of Hg, Se, and other chemicals to receiving streams due to the installation of flue gas desulfurization (FGD) air pollution control units. There are regulatory concerns about the potential increased uptake of these bioaccumulative trace elements into food webs. We evaluated the concentrations of As, THg, ...

An analysis of extinction coefficients of particles and water moisture in the stack after flue gas desulfurization at a coal-fired power plant
Two important factors that affect in-stack opacity—light extinction by emitted particles and that by water moisture after a flue gas desulfurization (FGD) unit—are investigated. The mass light extinction coefficients for particles and water moisture, kp and kw, respectively, were determined using the Lambert-Beer law of opacity with a nonlinear least-squares regression method. The ...

Coal fired power plant achieves ZLD for FGD wastewater
The Facility Illinois’ City of Springfield’s Dallman Power Station’s three coal-fired units and soon to be installed fourth unit, are equipped with flue gas desulfurization (FGD) systems (scrubbers) to control sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions. The Problem A sharp increase in boron concentration in the FGD wastewater required that The City of Springfield Office of Public ...

Fly Ash & the Lightweight Aggregate Market
In 2015, the global fly ash market was estimated to be valued at 40 billion USD. A recent industry analysis by Research Nester anticipates the market will reach an estimated 70 billion USD by the end of 2023 – a 7.1% CAGR owing to increasing urbanization and a boost in construction projects. Along with bottom ash (BA) and flue gas desulfurization gypsum (FGD gypsum, or synthetic gypsum), ...
