Orimulsion combustion by-products: Chemical composition and leaching characteristics. Final report
Abstract
Orimulsion{reg_sign} is a recently developed fuel for burning in utility boilers to generate electricity. It is manufactured by mixing water with heavy bitumen recovered from the Orinico Tar Belt in Venezuela. Orimulsion is not current used in the US but is being considered by several US utilities. This report summarizes the chemical composition and characteristics of Orimulsion fuel and Orimulsion by-products. This information will be used to provide technical input for a regulatory determination by the US Environmental Protection Agency on management of Orimulsion combustion by-products.
