Associated Environmental<br />
Impact<br />
- Ammonia Slip<br />
- Acid plume<br />
- Ammonia-sulfur salt fume as PM<br />
-Spent catalyst disposal<br />
- Contaminated fly ash<br />
- More solid waste (5x fuel sulfur)<br />
- Liberation of CO 2 from limestone<br />
- Additional PM from mist carryover<br />
- Additional water treatment<br />
- Potential for ash contamination with<br />
ammonia from SCR and Hg from<br />
carbon injection<br />
-Poor carbon utilization increases<br />
waste disposal<br />
- Flyash unacceptable for commercial<br />
use or may be deemed hazardous<br />
- Contamination of scrubber sludge<br />
- Unacceptable for commercial use.<br />
