Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6791571

LIMB Demonstration Project Extension progress for February, March, and April, 1988 is in Phase 1 -- Design and Permitting and Phase 2 -- Coolside/LIMB Construction, Start-up and Shakedown. In accordance with the Cooperative Agreement, the Phase 1 40% Completion Review was held at the Barberton facilities of Babcock and Wilcox on April 28, 1988. Representatives of DOE, EPA, the State of Ohio, B and W and Consol were in attendance to discuss Phase 1 progress. Consol has essentially completed technology transfer activities regarding the pilot process simulation tests. Only a report remains to be completed. Detailed design activities continued with the instrumentation of the bypass and humidification chamber. Design of the Coolside sorbent and ash recycle system was emphasized. Consol continues to prepare a report on the waste characterization and run-off simulation studies which are complete. The Environmental Monitoring Plan Outline was issued to the DOE in April, 1988. Under Phase 2 -- Construction, Shakedown and Start-Up, the humidifier lance parts were completed and final assembly was started. Erection of the bypass system flues and humidification chamber was completed. Installation of the instrumentation for the humidifier is under way. Electrical transformers and switchgear are the items of critical importance in maintaining the schedule. 7 figs., 1 tab.
