Flue gas desulfurization gypsum FGDG is an industrial byproduct generated during the flue gas desulfurization process in coal fired power plants Flue gas desulfurization systems have been used to limit the release of sulfur dioxide from coal fired power plants since the late 1960s but in the past decade the production of FGDG has
The desulfurization efficiency decreases with the increase of concentration of SO 2 in flue gas When the four spray levels are in operation Chinese emission standard of SO 2 of flue gas of boiler in power plant can be met even when the flue gas flux increased to 1 200 000 N m 3 /h and the concentration of SO 2 in flue gas increase to 5000 mg
Flue gas desulfurization technology used in power plants Power stations utilize flue gas desulfurization equipment to take sulfur dioxide out of the flue gas created by burning coal or oil By injecting limestone or a lime solution into the flue gas this is accomplished Benefits of Power Plants Using FGD Technology
been widely used in the flue gas desulfurization of thermal power plants However the desulfurization process needs to use high purity and active lime as desulfurizer and the comprehensive utilization of desulfurization products is also limited to some extent Development status of flue gas denitrification
The term Flue Gas Desulphurisation FGD system has traditionally referred to wet scrubbers that remove SO 2 emissions from large electric utility boilers The FGD systems emerged in the industrial field of the coal fired power plants and on some industrial processes in the early 1970s in United States US and Japan and expanded rapidly in the 1980s [1] in
Currently coal fired power plants in China which install and properly operate flue gas desulfurization equipment can receive 15 Yuan/MWh premium tariff on top of their on grid tariffs However this study shows that this incentive is insufficient to cover the flue gas desulfurization costs of most of the sample plants
Process Flow A certain power plant is equipped with two 350 MW supercritical indirect air cooling and heating units with a designed desulfurization wastewater discharge capacity of 2 under rated operating conditions × m 3 /h The zero discharge system of desulfurization wastewater adopts the technology of integrated pre treatment
waste Nonetheless it is the preferred process for coal fired electric utility power plants burning coal due to the low cost of limestone and SO 2 control efficiencies from 90% up to 98% Schnelle 2002 Semi Dry Systems Semi dry systems or spray dryers inject an aqueous sorbent slurry similar to a wet system however
Development of the national coal fired power plant flue gas desulfurization units in China from 2005 to 2009 [72] We can see from Fig 9 that the proportion of FGD units accounted for the total coal fired generating units in China had maintained an upward trend from 2005 to 2009 However this proportion was still less than 80% by the year of
Caiqing Zhang et al studied and analyzed the cost benefit of the desulfurization system in a power plant In order to adapt to the change of H 2 S concentration and to meet the urgent need for maintenance and repair of a set of desulfurization equipment for treating 20 000 m 3 per day built in 2008
Zero emission of wastewater from coal fired power plants CFPPs is one of the pathways for cleaner electricity production It is expected that low cost and reliable zero liquid discharge ZLD of flue gas desulphurization FGD wastewater will be achieved by applying the forced circulation multi effect distillation and crystallization FC MEDC technology
