Abstract
The report gives detailed technical information concerning application of flue gas desulfurization (FGD) systems to industrial boilers. Design and operation data is presented for 172 FGD control systems (132 of them operational), designed to control SO2 emissions from 206 industrial boilers at 61 plants. With a 1978 capacity of 9.2 million scfm, an average of more than seven new FGD systems have been put on line each year since 1972. Information in the report was obtained by a survey of plant personnel, control system vendors, regulatory agencies, and consulting engineering firms. The data is given in two types of tables: one gives summary information; the other, detailed information. Summary tables present information as a function of control process, control system vendor, disposal technique, operational status, startup date, and flue gas capacity. Detailed information includes: control system design, economics, operating experience, problems and solutions, waste disposal techniques, and maintenance practices.
