The paper reports on ABB`s work in Phase I of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) project {open_quote}Engineering Development of Advanced Coal-Fired Low-Emissions Boiler Systems{close_quote} (LEBS) which is part of the DOE`s Combustion 2000 Program. Work planned for fixture Phases is also described. The overall objective of the LEBS Project is to dramatically improve environmental performance of future coal-fired power plants without adversely impacting efficiency or the cost of electricity Near-term technologies, i.e., advanced technologies that are partially developed, will be used to reduce NO{sub x} and SO{sub 2} emissions to one-third current NSPS limits and particulates to one-half current NSPS limits. Air toxics must be in compliance. Waste must be reduced and made more disposable. The work in Phase I included concept development and evaluation of several subsystems for controlling the emission of SO{sub 2}, NO{sub x}, and particulates. Candidate technologies were then evaluated in various combinations as part of complete advanced supercritical power generation systems. One system was selected for preliminary design of a commercial generating plant.
