Proof of concept testing of the advanced NOXSO flue gas cleanup process. Quarterly technical progress report, April 1989--July 1989

摘要

The project is a pilot plant scale up from laboratory testing of the NOXSO flue gas cleanup process. The process simultaneously removes both sulfur and nitrogen oxides from the flue gas. The objective of this project is to prove the NOXSO Process can achieve the same SO2 and NOx removal efficiencies under field conditions as achieved in laboratory tests. The project is divided into 6 tasks. The purpose of Task 1 is to establish a work plan that covers in detail all the activities related to the successful completion of the project. Task 2 consists of the design and construction of the pilot Plant. Task 3 consists of an experimental program to define both operating conditions and performance data to support Task 4. Task 4 primary activities to conduct a long duration test which attains continuous 90% sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide removal rates. Task 5 will be the conceptual design of a 500MW including an economic evaluation of the conceptual design. Task 6 will be the demolition of the pilot plant and restoration of the site.
