Flyash Pond and Wastewater Treatment Issues is Hot Topic Hour on Thursday, May 3
and Friday, May 4, 2012
Because of the strong interest in this subject, we have scheduled eight speakers
in two sessions – the first at 10 a.m. (CDT) on Thursday, May 3 and the second
at 10 a.m. (CDT) on Friday, May 4. If you register to attend the first
session on Thursday, you will automatically be registered for the session on
Friday.
It’s been more than three years since the coal ash spill at a TVA plant in
Kingston, Tennessee prompted strong public pressure on operators of coal-fired
power plants to drain and shut down their coal ash impoundments and on EPA to
regulate impoundments and coal combustion residuals (CCRs). CCRs include
bottom and flyash, boiler slag and SO2 scrubber residues and are
often referred to collectively as “coal ash.” More than 130 million tons
are generated each year.
The EPA proposed either subjecting coal ash to a federal hazardous-waste
management law or requiring states to regulate it as a non-hazardous waste. But
the proposed EPA regulations have yet to be implemented. Both Senate and House
have stepped in and passed bills to either block EPA from regulating CCRs or
force EPA to mandate that each state will have the authority to regulate them.
However, neither bill has yet resulted in legislation. As a result, a dozen
national environmental and public health groups recently announced plans to sue
the EPA to force implementation of the proposed rule under the federal Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act.
The net result of all of this activity has been to create great uncertainty for
plant operators and increased cost while reducing options for disposing of CCRs.
All of the discussion about regulating CCRs as hazardous waste has attached a
stigma to beneficial re-use. After growing for ten years to a level where in
2009 44.3 percent of CCRs were recycled to industry as raw materials, the rate
is now declining. At the same time, water discharge permits have become
increasingly stringent, allowing for the release of only very low concentrations
of pollutants in plant effluents making it more difficult to drain ponds.
The following speakers will address the status of proposed federal and state
regulations, the potential impacts of the eventual regulations on the coal-fired
power plant industry, alternatives to using impoundments to dispose of CCRs,
what will need to be done to comply with the expected regulations and systems
and technology for eliminating wet ash handling and slurry storage in ponds or
reduce wastewater volume as well as treat the wastewater generated by the plant
process.
Presenting on Thursday, May 3, 2012:
John N. Ward,
President of John Ward, Inc, is representing the American Coal Ash Association
(ACAA) and will provide an update on coal ash regulatory and legislative issues.
Three and a half years have passed since a coal ash impoundment failure in
Tennessee prompted the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to initiate
rulemaking activities for new coal ash disposal regulations. With no end in
sight for the rulemaking, Congress is getting involved and legislation creating
new disposal regulations is now the subject of a Transportation Bill conference
committee negotiation. Meanwhile, lawsuits against the EPA, new EPA-led risk
evaluations of coal ash beneficial use, and an expected Notice of Data
Availability related to Steam Effluent Generating Guidelines data are combining
to further complicate the regulatory outlook.
James Ballan,
Manager of SCM (Supplementary Cementitious Materials) at FLSmidth, Inc, will
discuss processes for coal ash beneficiation. For many years coal ash has been
in use as a cement additive, soil stabilizer and filler for underground voids
such as sink holes and mines. All of the discussion about regulating CCRs
as hazardous waste has attached a stigma to the beneficial re-use. This
presentation will introduce a concept for the beneficiation of coal ash in one
compact system with the flexibility to address both new CCR production and
existing impoundments.
Naomi Levy,
Lead Industrial Engineer at Infilco-Degremont, Inc, will describe treatment
options for both the flyash and the flyash pond leachate. The presentation
will include Infilco-Degremont’s (IDI’s) expertise in treating this considerably
variable and complex water. Flyash is one of the many byproducts generated in
power plant’s operations as a result of the combustion of coal. It contains all
the non-combustible minerals that were deposited with the coal and is highly
variable. In many places, this residue is being collected in ash ponds.
Unless treated or reused, it would stay inside the structure “forever,”
potentially being a candidate for a disastrous spill or contributing to the
contamination of the water receiving body.
Douglas J. Dahlberg,
P.E. at Sargent & Lundy LLC, will discuss how the proposed U.S. EPA coal
combustion residuals regulations will impact the power plant and the bottom
line. The more recent Oak Creek, Wisconsin generating facility ash-bluff
collapse reminded the regulatory agencies of the potential problems associated
with ash disposal sites. The critical questions are “What’s this going to cost
and how will it affect your power plant’s bottom line?” With proposed
rules technically similar to the existing Subtitle D municipal solid waste
disposal regulations, CCRs handling and disposal unit costs can be estimated by
considering differences and similarities between municipal solid waste and CCRs.
Presenting on Friday, May 4, 2012:
Nick Nelsen,
Environmental Specialist at Barr Engineering Company, will discuss how to
evaluate projects for handling coal combustion residuals. Disposal capacity
limits and recent air regulations are forcing power plants to commit to upgrades
for pollution control equipment and disposal facilities before CCRs rules or
effluent guidelines are finalized. This presentation will provide recent
experience in evaluating immediate project requirements while positioning
upgrades to comply with final CCR and effluent guideline regulations.
Because utilities are struggling with how to prepare for these changes, the
presentation will include specific recommendations on what to do now so that
better decisions can be made in these upgrade projects.
Dr. David Mazyck,
Carbonxt
Tom Higgins,
Technology Fellow Vice President, or Dennis Fink, Environmental
Engineer and Sr. Project Manager, Industrial Systems at CH2M Hill,
will discuss CH2M Hill’s work with power plants to address pressures
to close ash ponds. The approach described in this presentation to eliminate ash
ponds includes a combination of: eliminating wastewater streams,
segregating streams that have stringent regulatory requirements or that
adversely affect reuse (total dissolved solids), and treating remaining high
volume/easily treatable wastewater for reuse or discharge. Each of
the main wastewater streams typically discharged to ponds will be discussed (FGD
wastewater, flyash transport water, bottom ash transport water and other plant
waste streams), focusing on why and how to eliminate treatment by ponds.
Best practices for designing treatment of remaining wastewater will be
presented, as will reuse strategies for wastewater discharge minimization or
elimination.
Ari Schoen Lewis,
Health Scientist at Gradient Corporation, will discuss “Human Health Risk
Assessment and the Regulation of Coal Combustion Residues (CCRs).” In
support of the Proposed Rule to regulate CCRs, U.S. EPA has published several
assessments on the potential human and ecological risks associated with various
coal ash disposal practices. This presentation will discuss the risks
associated with surface impoundments and how this information was used in the
cost-benefit analysis to distinguish among different regulatory options.
Also, in light of changing (but as yet unknown) regulations, this presentation
will address how human health risk analysis will be important to address future
safety concerns associated with disposal and beneficial use of CCR, and the
importance of emerging toxicological assessments of the chemical constituents in
CCRs (e.g., arsenic, cobalt, chromium).

Water Treatment and Flow Market Has Double-Digit Growth Segments
Droughts, contamination and growth are creating markets for flow and treatment
of water which exceed GDP. In some segments, double-digit growth is
forecast for the coming decade. McIlvaine has identified these high growth
segments in its various water related market reports.
The segment with the highest growth rate is ballast water treatment for vessels.
Presently, a few hundred systems are installed in vessels for the purpose of
preventing the escape of potentially invasive species to the lakes and harbors
where freight is loaded and ballast water is discharged. Over the
next eight years, more than 50,000 ships will be fitted with systems costing as
much as $1 million each. Filters to remove particles larger than 50
microns will be included in each system.
A means to kill organisms, such as ultraviolet light, ozone oxidation, or
chemicals will be necessary. Because large amounts of water have to be
discharged in relatively short periods, there will be a significant opportunity
for the suppliers of pumps and valves. These systems will be highly instrumented
both to insure effectiveness and minimize consumables costs. Additional
monitoring instrumentation will need to be acquired by testing firms and
laboratories to serve more than 500 ports around the world.
Unconventional gas and oil exploration and processing will also generate fast
growing markets for water treatment and flow products and services. Proposed
U.S. EPA regulations as well as regulations already in place in Pennsylvania and
other states will result in substantial investment in systems to treat produced
water from various extraction operations and flow back water from shale
fracturing.
A number of very expensive treatment systems and recovery of water through
evaporation are in the planning stages. Filters are challenged to remove
dissolved solids which can be as high as 25 percent of the total fluid being
processed. Pumps and valves have to deal with very high levels of corrosive
chlorides and other difficult chemicals.
Extensive monitoring systems will be required to measure water quality in
groundwater and aquifers. There will need to be early investments to determine
baseline contamination prior to drilling. Due to this lack of a baseline, it is
presently unclear whether some of the problems are a result of drilling or were
pre-existing.
There are many double-digit geographic growth segments. Desalination
activity will remain at a high level in the Middle East, but will not grow as
fast as it will in China and a number of other countries. Sales of systems and
products to treat municipal wastewater and drinking water will grow at
double-digit rates in a number of developing countries.
There are also certain product categories which will enjoy double-digit growth.
One example is the high pressure pumps needed to move millions of gallons of
water, sand and chemicals down two miles at high pressure to fracture shale.
Another example is elecrtrodeionization which is finding uses in ultrapure
water, desalination and even treatment of water for fracking.

World FGD Market to Exceed $16 Billion This Year
The sales of equipment and chemicals to power plants for the purpose of flue gas
desulfurization (FGD) will total more than $16 billion dollars this year.
This is the latest finding in the McIlvaine publication World FGD
Markets. (www.mcilvainecompany.com)

The largest segment will be new wet calcium systems. These will mostly be
systems using limestone as a reagent and making calcium sulfate (gypsum) for
wall board consumption. A much smaller segment will use circulating dry
scrubbing, spray dryer absorbers (SDA) or direct lime injection.
Over 90 percent of the installed base of systems dating back to 1968 are
limestone systems. Due to the corrosive atmosphere, replacement needs are
substantial. Some of these systems are also being upgraded to higher efficiency.
As a result, over $3 billion will be spent in 2012 for parts and upgrades of
existing wet calcium systems.
Limestone is by far the most popular reagent. However, its cost is considerably
less than lime. As a result, the total revenues are only twice that of lime.
Other chemicals are also being used. Ammonia is one reagent which results
in a salable ammonium sulfate fertilizer. Amines are also being used in
systems which produce sulfuric acid as a byproduct. There are a number of
treatment chemicals used to purify FGD wastewater and prevent scaling and
foaming in the scrubber systems. One approach chemically fixes the FGD sludge
with the addition of lime.
China is the largest purchaser of new systems and the largest consumer of
limestone. The U.S. has passed rules relative to air toxics which will encourage
dry lime injection and will boost the market for this reagent. India has opted
for seawater systems which do not use any major reagent. The alkalinity in
the seawater is sufficient to capture the SO2. The seawater
being discharged is slightly warmer and has marginally higher sulfates than the
raw seawater. (This approach will also be used by vessels to scrub the SO2
created by the burning of bunker fuel. (However, the vessel and industrial FGD
markets are not included in these forecasts.)
The markets in Western Europe, Taiwan and South Korea are mostly retrofit and
repair as virtually all plants are fitted with FGD. Eastern Europe is
investing heavily in FGD to meet membership requirements for the European Union.
