Jehangir Zakaria, Gordon L. Sutin · 1994
elimi nate need for cooling water; the Facility has no water dis charge s. The features of Shred-and-Burn concept are pre sented, the Facility is described, plant capacity factors and reasons for lost operating time are detailed. Design modi fications implemented in the third boiler line based on the operational experience of the first two boilers are stated. Stack testing data showing performance of the spray drier absorbers with electrostatic precipitators in the first two boiler lines and with the baghouse in the new boiler are presented. The new line employs urea injection for NOx control in spite of the inherently low NOx emissions.
