Environmental, health, and safety assessments for direct coal liquefaction. Volume 6. Source and ambient monitoring programs
Comprehensiv, cost-effective environmental monitoring programs are a critical element of the planning and development of emerging technologies such as the production of synthetic fuels from coal. Accurate and timely collection of data is essential for impact assessment, regulatory requirements, and management purposes. This report evaluates the ambient and source monitoring of, air and water quality performed by the U.S. Department of Energy and its subcontractors at six direct coal liquefaction projects: (1) SRC pilot plant at Ft. Lewis, Washington; (2) SRC pilot plant at Wilsonville, Alabama; (3) H-Coal pilot plant at Catlettsburg, Kentucky; (4) Exxon Donor Solvent pilot plant at Baytown, Texas; (5) proposed SRC-I demonstration plant at Newman, Kentucky; and (6) proposed SRC-II demonstration plant at Ft. Martin, West Virginia. The design, implementation, and results of air and water monitoring programs at these facilities were examined to identify lessons learned and research and development needs from individual and collective experiences. The results of this evaluation are expected to guide industrial, governmental, or other developers in planning air and water quality monitoring programs for future synfuels projects.
