Title: PISCES field chemical emissions monitoring project: Site 20 emissions report. Final report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:184037

This report is one of a series sponsored by the Electric Power Research Institute in the area of trace substance emissions from fossil-fuel power Plants. This report presents the results of a sampling and analytical study to characterize trace substances emissions at Site 20. Site 20 is a pulverized coal-fired boiler burning a medium-sulfur bituminous coal. Site 20 is a large, pulverized coal-fired power plant that bums a lignite coal. Site 20 employs electrostatic precipitators and a flue gas desulfurization system for particulate and SO{sub 2} control. The objective of this report is to transmit the detailed data to the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to assist the Agency in evaluating utility trace chemical emissions as well as the associated health risk impacts-as mandated in Title III of the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments. This report does not attempt to compare the results with other sites.
