Fine-particulate emissions from stationary sources and control technologies
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:6358235
In this report, the sources of fine-particulate emissions and the effects on the emission rates from coal-fired stationary sources are reviewed. The current regulatory standards for particulate matter and the possible future standards are discussed. Conventional control devices, such as electrostatic precipitators, fabric filter baghouses, and scrubbers, and their effectiveness in removing fine particulates are examined. Current research activities in electrostatic precipitator performance improvement, fabric filter baghouse development, and unconventional fine-particulate-removal approaches are summarized. Finally, the potential research areas for fine-particulate control are outlined and reviewed.
