Second fossil plant cycle chemistry conference: Proceedings

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6513204
A conference on cycle chemistry in fossil plants was conducted on August 30--September 1, 1988. Approximately 150 participants attended the conference from 14 countries. The objectives of the conference were to review, document and transfer technology on all aspects of cycle chemistry. To meet these objectives, papers were presented and are included in these proceedings in eight technical areas: boiler chemistry; turbine chemistry; cycling chemistry; monitoring; alternate chemistries; chemical cleaning; instrumentation and diagnosis; and ion exchange systems. Each topic at the conference was discussed in a separate conference session and these discussions are also included in the proceedings following each paper. The mix of international and domestic papers in most sessions were chosen to indicate the very marked differences in practices and to stimulate discussion. The working group summaries provide some of this flavor; they also indicate the current needs and deficiencies and outline R and D required in the near term and to improve/upgrade cycle chemistry to the year 2000. Individual projects are processed separately for the data bases.
