Flue Gas Desulfurization CEMS Design Lessons Learned and Monitoring Technologies to Meet the New Mercury and Air Toxics (MATS) Rule

摘要

Cemtek Environmental has engineered, built, supplied, and commissioned numerous continuous emissions monitoring systems (CEMS) to meet the regulatory requirements on operating units employing both wet and dry flue gas desulfurization scrubber technology for coal fired boilers. Learn about the CEMS design lessons learned from each of the completed projects, including information learned regarding particulate and mercury monitoring. This paper will investigate the unique issues that arose during the CEMS design, installation, commissioning, and operation and the knowledge gained and solutions utilized for each technical issue. We will also explore the new monitoring technologies for mercury, particulate, and acid gases for meeting the new requirements for the Mercury and Air Toxic Standard (MATS) rule.
