OSTI ID:6718354
The overall purpose of this handbook is to provide a comprehensive guide to sampling, analytical, and physical test methods essential to the operation, maintenance, and understanding of flue gas desulfurization system chemistry. The Electric Power Research Institute sponsored compilation of the three-volume manual in response to the needs of electric utility personnel responsible for establishing and operating commercial FGD analytical laboratories. Volume 1 of the handbook explains FGD system chemistry in the detail necessary to understand how the processes operate and how process performance indicators can be used to optimize system operation. Volume 2 includes 54 physical testing and chemical analysis methods for reagents, slurries, and solids, and information on applicability of individual methods to specific FGD systems. Volume 3 contains instructions for an FGD process chemistry computer program designated by EPRI as FGDLIQEQ. Executable on IBM personal and mainframe computers, this program calculates the concentrations (activities) of chemical species (ions) in scrubber liquor and can calculate driving forces for important chemical reactions such as SO/sub 2/ absorption and calcium sulfite and sulfate precipitation. This program and selected chemical analyses will help an FGD system operator optimize system performance, prevent many potential process problems, and define solutions to existing problems. 22 references, 16 figures, 26 tables.
