| Abstract |
The article gives results of an analysis of the condensing aerosol problem and an evaluation of possible control approaches to reduce the downwind 'detached plume' opacity. The opacity of such plumes may be reduced by reducing the concentration of condensible vapors, the in-stack concentration of fine particles, or both. Results of the analysis indicate that, for low concentrations of condensible vapors, the detached plume opacity may be adequately controlled by reducing the in-stack fine particulate concentration alone. For high concentrations of condensible vapors, however, reduction of in-stack fine particulate concentration alone may not be effective: reduction of vapor concentration may be necessary along with particulate removal for adequate reduction of plume opacity. Different combinations of levels of reduction of vapor concentration and particulate phase concentration are possible to achieve a desired result; and thus may be optimized to obtain a cost effective combination.
