On-Site Field Tests for Study of Low-Rank Western-Coal Fly Ash. Final Report on Phase 1

摘要

The Final Report on Phase 1 of the referenced contract covers the work performed and the technical plans logistical arrangements, and recommendations developed during the period of October 1, 1980 to January 31, 1981. SoRI has prepared a detailed work plan for the project which included procedures for the selection of test sites and plans for the performance of the follow-on field tests under Phase 2 of the project. The Technical Manager authorized the first field test of the Arapahoe Unit 3 baghouse to take place in late February or early March. A detailed work plan for the Arapahoe baghouse test is included in this report. The objectives of Phase 1 were to select appropriate test sites and make the necessary plans for conducting the follow-on field tests at these sites. The planning was to include the formulation of a detailed work plan for the project and the administrative and logistical arrangements with the selected utilities. All of these objectives have been satisfied with the exception of the arrangements with the utilities which have not been completed for all utilities due to the accelerated project schedule. The primary purpose of these follow-on field tests is to investigate the emissions and control of fly ash from utility boilers burning low-rank Western coals. (ERA citation 06:020158)
