Solvent refined coal (SRC) process: environmental program. Research and development report No. 53, interim report No. 40. Volume III. Pilot plant development work. Part 5. Enviromental program for the period July 1, 1978-December 31, 1979
This report summarizes the environmental program under the Solvent Refined Coal (SRC) Contract from July 1978 through December 1979. Three major areas are included in the program: (1) air quality; (2) water quality; and, (3) foliage effects. Baseline studies of air and water quality were performed before the plant was constructed. Similar studies were made in 1976 during plant operation. These studies indicate that installation of the pilot plant had virtually no measurable impact on air and water quality in the surrounding environment. As a result of the 1976 study, monitoring frequency was reduced to alternate monthly water and air samples with annual foliage observations. The results of the monitoring efforts undertaken during 1978 to 1979 indicate that no substantial change in the environment has taken place as a result of the operation of the SRC plant.
