Wet Calcium FGD was the Hot Topic on July 24
A new dedicated website on this subject Wet Calcium FGD - Continuous Analyses
was introduced. This site and periodic webinars are to assist operators in
making the best decisions relative to wet calcium FGD.
Yesterdays topics included
Scrubber selection by Scott Miller of Advatech
One oxidation blower option discussion with Keith Collins of Gardner Denver
Discussions on lime vs. limestone with Scott Fraley of Carmeuse
Site tour including Chinese information
Wet limestone FGD systems are competitive with the dry option, according to
Scott Miller. The following comparison shows the wet FGD advantages:
With the addition of lime at the air preheater to lower gas temperature and
increase heat recovery, a side benefit is improved SO3 removal. Therefore, wet
systems with this added feature are very efficient at removing SO3. With the
Gore mercury module the efficiency on mercury removal is also very high. This
can be an upgrade option.
Keith made a convincing case for the selection of the multi-stage blower.
When questioned about efficiency, Keith explained that the GDI uses a throttling
valve to control flow so that at low flows efficiency is reduced. However, in a
typical FGD system with 4 or 5 blowers there is no need for throttling
individual units.
Gardner Denver has over 80 blower units installed in FGD service.

The company has manufacturing facilities in China and is actively participating
in this market.
Scott Fraley of Carmeuse Lime answered questions relative to the choice between
lime and limestone. Natural oxidation lime systems are regaining popularity due
to the ability to chemically fix heavy metals in a disposable landfill product.
Some utilities that started with this technology in the 1970s and then converted
to forced oxidation have now converted back.
Lime quality varies and can be determined by the temperature rise during
slaking. Highly reactive lime can obtain 99 percent efficiency with very little
excess lime.
A great deal of information has been added to the site including very
comprehensive information about corrosion in Chinese power plants. This
information is in Chinese and in English.
August 14, 2014 Industrial Boiler and Cement MACT Timing and Compliance Options
Industrial Boiler and Cement MACT Timing and Compliance Options
Operators of cement kilns and industrial boilers are in the process of making
final decisions relative to mercury, HCl and toxics reductions. This webinar
will help these operators compare the many options which are available.
There are five free websites to provide a foundation for the discussion:
• Dry Scrubbing - Continuous Analyses
• Mercury Removal - Continuous Analyses
• Hot Gas Filters - Continuous Analyses
• CCR and Effluent - Continuous Analyses
• Wet Calcium FGD - Continuous Analyses
The webinar will explore technology options including some very recent
developments. The catalytic filter and the post scrubbing mercury module are two
newly proven technologies. The decisions on upgrading precipitators or
installing fabric filters, using dry or wet scrubbers, and whether to use
sorbent traps or mercury CEMS all have to be made.
Another question is how much time is left to make these decisions? There is also
the uncertainty regarding future regulations and whether to adopt technologies
which provide flexibility. One flexible approach is to invest in lower cost
technology with the potential to upgrade. Australia just abolished its carbon
tax while the U.S. administration is talking about more CO2 reductions, so the
strategy for MACT compliance has to factor in the regulatory uncertainties.
The webinar will be collaborative. A series of questions will be discussed. The
program will be enhanced and initiated with a few short presentations by
experts.
