Hupe, D W

This report summarizes the Phase II, Second Interim activities for ongoing investigations for fixation/stabilization of flue gas desulfurization sludge (the Poz-O-Tec system). The investigations are being conducted at the Conesville Power Station of Columbus and Southern Ohio Electric Company where the CSI system was first applied on a fullscale basis and Poz-O-Tec has been landfilled since January 1977. The report presents an up-date on Phase II activities which include (1) groundwater and runoff sampling conducted on a quarterly basis to monitor for related contamination; (2) annual sampling and testing of Poz-O-Tec samples from the landfill for comparison with CSI projected physical characteristics; (3) observation of disposal operations in order to identify any problems associated with utilization of the system; and (4) assessment of overall environmental acceptability. The report also summarizes Phase I and Phase II, First Interim work. This project will supply the utility industry with an unbiased evaluation of the benefits and drawbacks of the CSI systems as seen at the Conesville Station under full-scale operations.
