Costs for DSI

This study by Sargent & Lundy provides methods to determine costs of DSI for acid gas removal. The sorbent requirement is a function of particle size, particulate control device, and other factors. 2016 cost factors are utilized. Based on commercial testing, removal efficiencies with DSI are limited by the particulate capture device employed. Trona, when captured in an ESP, typically removes 40 to 50% of SO2 without an increase in particulate emissions, whereas hydrated lime may remove an even lower percentage of SO2. A baghouse used with sodium-based sorbents generally achieves a higher SO2 removal efficiency (70 to 90%) than that of an ESP. DSI technology, however, should not be applied to fuels with sulfur content greater than 2 lb SO2/MMBtu.
