Design performance data for operating FGD (flue gas desulfurization) systems: Volume 2, Part 1 of 2: Utility FGD survey, January-December 1986
The Utility Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD) Survey report, which is generated by a computerized data base management system, represents a survey of operational and planned domestic utility flue gas desulfurization (FGD) systems. It summarizes information contributed by the utility industry, system and equipment suppliers, system designers, research organizations, and regulatory agencies. The data cover system design, fuel characteristics, operating history, and actual system performance. Also included is a unit-by-unit discussion of problems and solutions associated with the boilers, scrubbers, and FGD systems. The development status (operational, under construction, or in the planning stages), system supplier, process, waste disposal practice, and regulatory class are tabulated alphabetically by utility company. Simplified process flow diagrams of FGD systems, definitions, and a glossary of terms are attached to the report. Current data for domestic FGD systems show 144 systems in operation, 7 systems under construction, and 52 systems planned. The current total FGD-controlled capacity in the United States is 62,824 MW. This document (Volume 2, Part 1) provides design performance data for operating FGD systems arranged alphabetically from Alabama Electric to Minnkota Power. A separate document (Volume 2, Part 2) provides this data for Monongahela Power thru West Texas Utilities.
