Description:
The proceedings document presentations made during an EPA-sponsored industry briefing, July 15, 1981, in Springfield, MO. The briefing dealt with the status of EPA's research activities on the adipic-acid-enhanced limestone flue gas desulfurization (FGD) process. Subjects covered included: (1) an overview of the adipic-acid-enhanced process, (2) the status of the demonstration project at Springfield City Utilities, (3) results of the demonstration project on an industrial boiler, (4) results of testing at the EPA prototype test facility at TVA's Shawnee steam plant, and (5) economics of limestone FGD systems using adipic acid. The briefing provided users, architects, engineers, vendors, consultants, and government personnel with a comprehensive assessment of this innovative technology for controlling SO2 emissions.
