Abstract |
The report gives results of a hypothetical study of marketing abatement H2SO4 from SO2 removal and acid production facilities assumed to be installed at selected TVA coal-burning steam plants. The net return to TVA is determined by assigning a zero dollar value for the acid at the steam plants, computing the transportation cost of shipping the acid to existing acid producers, and selling to the existing acid producers at their avoidable manufacturing cost. From an approximate 18,000 MW coal-burning power generation capacity in the TVA system, about 10,000 MW was considered for H2SO4 production and about two million tons of H2SO4 per year would be produced. Assuming that TVA would be the only utility producing abatement acid, a net sales revenue of about $5 to $9 per ton was indicated. The computer model developed for the study can be expanded to include other U.S. utilities. Such an expansion of the study is suggested. |
