Comprehensive Report to Congress, Clean Coal Technology Program: Advanced Slagging Combustor Utility Demonstration Project: A Project Proposed by TRW, Inc.

摘要

The TRW project will develop an acid rain precursor control technology for retrofit applications. One of the main objectives of this project is to demonstrate that this slagging combustor technology can result in replacement of oil with coal with no loss in unit capacity while meeting the emission requirements normally achieved when firing with oil. Another key objective is to demonstrate that TRW's slagging combustor can burn low-sulfur and commercially washed high-sulfur eastern bituminous coals and still satisfy the New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for utility boilers and thereby provide for control of acid rain precursors. Results are discussed. 5 figs. (ERA citation 14:004130)
