Knowledge Flow and Translation from China Rather than to It
In case you are of the impression that the Chinese desperately need valuable information which is in English and needs to be translated, whereas there is not much valuable information in Chinese which needs to be translated to English, then it is time to reflect.
A number of International industrial and drug companies now have research centers in China, so people whose first language is Chinese are doing much basic research. Most Chinese Engineers can read English whereas few non-Chinese engineers can read Chinese.
The most modern industrial plants are being built in China. The U.S. has little supercritical boiler experience compared to China. The most active FGD supplier in China started up 25 new systems last year totaling nearly 13,000 MW.

There is a great deal of good published information in Chinese. Government statistics show the above market share data for FGD. There is similar information on DeNOx. Elsewhere in the world McIlvaine is compiling market share data through its own efforts, but in China much of this data is available. Therefore McIlvaine is finding that there is as much need to translate Chinese into English as the reverse.
Continuing Changes In The Options Available To Meet Air Quality Regulations
In our weekly reporting of developments, it is a challenge to sort out those that will actually change the options available to meet the regulatory requirements. To help our subscribers indentify the new options we are instituting Decisive Classification Updates. Here were the changes flagged in July:
Decisive Classification System Updates for July 2013
Key words: Mercury 水银（汞, Bromine, Circulating Dry Scrubber….bromine injection without ACI for dry FGD is a viable option for high level of mercury removal.
Key words: Wet Electrostatic Precipitator, PM2.5, toxic metals, MS….Consider WESP for toxic metal reduction greater than alternatives. Consider using gasified municipal waste as reburn fuel in coal-fired boiler with scrubber and WESP.
Key words: Dry Sorbent Injection , Sorbent recovery….Consider option to recover dry sorbent and to recycle it. This is different from reagent recycle where the flyash, reacted reagent, and unreacted reagent are recycled, so the term “reagent recovery” should distinguish this from reagent recycle.
Key words: Activated Carbon 活性炭, Non-carbon sorbent-----Non-carbon sorbent should now be a commercial alternative to activated carbon based on the commercial contract.
Key Words: Carbon Dioxide, Regulation ….New coal-fired power plants would have a CO2 limit 10 percent to 70 percent higher than the original EPA proposal.
Chen of CBI and Tseng of Graymont Will Discuss Mercury Removal Data in Mandarin on August 9, 2013
If you are interested in talking mercury removal in Mandarin, you are welcome to participate in our webinar. Bobby I.T. Chen, Client Program Manager Integrated Emission Solutions, Environmental & Infrastructure at CBI, will be repeating his presentation of last week in the Hot Topic Hour. He will make the presentation in Mandarin Chinese on August 9 at 10 a.m. Central time. This will be recorded and made available on our Global Decisions Orchard and on YouTube. An earlier presentation by a McIlvaine Chinese employee on the Wahlco Urea to Ammonia process has received over 1,900 hits on YouTube. This is despite the ban on viewing YouTube in China.
The findings which were reported last week were quite impressive. Chen made a strong case for bromine injection (EMO) as the answer for mercury reduction from power plants burning the full range of fuels. The performance compares favorably when precipitators or baghouses are used. It compares favorably when both wet and dry scrubbers are incorporated. When hydrated lime was used for SO3 mitigation, less EMO was needed to achieve the same results. Emissions below 1 lb/TBtu were achieved routinely.
Shiaw Tseng of Graymont is an expert on sorbents and has done extensively analyses of the East Asian power industry. He will be asking questions and making some observations on the subject
