CHAPTER 6<br />

COSTS OF <strong>NOx</strong> CONTROL TECHNIQUES<br />

This chapter presents the cost estimates for the <strong>NOx</strong><br />

emission control techniques discussed in Chapter 5. Section 6.1<br />

presents the cost methodology used to develop capital and annual<br />

operating costs for these techniques. Based upon the<br />

distribution of the type of kilns used in the cement industry and<br />

their typical capacities, model plants were developed to perform<br />

cost calculations. Section 6.2 presents costs of selected in-<br />

combustion and postcombustion control approaches. The cost<br />

effectiveness of different control approaches is discussed in<br />

Section 6.3. All costs presented in this chapter are in 1992<br />

dollars.<br />
