High SO{sub 2} removal efficiency testing. Technical progress report, [1 April--30 June 1993]
On the base program, testing was completed at the Tampa Electric Big Bend Station in November, 1992. The upgrade option tested was DBA additive. Project efforts primarily consisted of project management activities and reporting. Review comments were received for the draft Technical Note that was submitted last quarter. A paper was prepared summarizing results from this site for presentation at the 1993 SO{sub 2} Control Symposium which is planned for August. For Option 1, at the Hoosier Energy Merom Station, results from another program co-funded by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) and the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association are being combined with results from DOE-funded testing. Three upgrade options have been tested: DBA additive, sodium formate additive, and high pH set point operation. All testing was completed by November, 1992. Project efforts during the current quarter were primarily in data reduction and reporting. The draft Technical Note for the Merom site was submitted in early April, and review comments were received in late May and early June. Option 2 involves testing at the Southwestern Electric Power Company Pirkey Station. For this option, baseline testing was conducted in February. The upgrade option scheduled to be tested at this site was sodium formate additive. However, based on interim results from other sites and feedback from the Technology Working Group for this project, it was decided to test both sodium formate and DBA additive at Pirkey. Parametric testing with DBA additive was conducted in March, and parametric testing with sodium formate was conducted in April. Based on the initial results from the parametric test series, DBA appeared to be the more attractive upgrade option for this site. Consequently, a DBA additive consumption test was conducted in May. Option 3 and 4 are discussed briefly.
