100-MW second generation SO/sub 2/ removal demonstration plant for New York State utilities
A program is now underway to design, build, and operate a 100-MW second generation flue gas desulfurization (FGD) demonstration plant for the New York State electric utilities. The program is sponsored by the Empire State Electric Energy Research Corporation (ESEERCO) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA); the FGD process to be demonstrated is the Atomics International (AI) Aqueous Carbonate Process (ACP). The program started officially on January 3, 1977, and is scheduled to be completed by December 1980. The ACP is described briefly, and then there is a description of the demonstration plant that will be built and operated at the Huntley Generating Station of the Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation.
