Description:
The handbook, intended for use of utility project managers and project engineers, provides guidance in selection, installation, and operation of a limestone FGD system, covering all phases from inception of the project through design, procurement, operation, and maintenance of the system. It gives detailed accounts of utility experience with operational limestone scrubbing systems. It also deals extensively with optional process features and with recent innovative process modifications that enhance the efficiency of the system. Among the many available processes for desulfurization of flue gas from utility boilers, the limestone wet scrubbing process is widely used and is being enhanced by numerous technological advances.
