Abstract
The report documents initial results from an ongoing National Acid Precipitation Assessment Program (NAPAP) study. The objective is to significantly improve engineering cost estimates for retrofit of the following control technologies at the 1980 'top 200' SO2-emitting coal-fired power plants in the 31 eastern states: lime/limestone FGD, lime spray drying FGD, coal switching and cleaning, furnace sorbent injection with humidification (LIMB), duct sorbent injection, low-NOx burners, overfire air, natural gas reburn, and selective catalytic reduction. Retrofit cost factors and costs were developed for 12 coal-fired power plants: 5 in Ohio and 7 in Kentucky and the TVA system (Tennessee, parts of Alabama, and Kentucky). Activities included: selecting plants with boilers representative of the top 200 population; visitng plants and collecting site-specific data.
