| Abstract: | Encouraged by the successes attained with fly ash control by fabric filters in Pennsylvania Power & Light and Colorado Ute, other utilities are installing, planning, and/or considering baghouses as a practical and economical means for controlling emissions from the burning of low sulfur coals. Where deposits of alkaline reagents (i.e. nahcolite) are available, some power plants are also considering a process for dry scrubbing SO2 from the flue gas. By introducing such reagents with the emission ahead of the fabric collector, both partlculates and SO2 are removed. |
