VGB Workshop "Flue Gas Cleaning", June 2/3, 2004
Air quality legislation, in particular the European Large Combustion Plant Directive, is forcing many operators of fossil-fired power plants to consider new or reconsider existing flue gas cleaning systems because of more stringent national Emission Limit Values (ELV).Discussion about the Best Available Technique (BAT) in the BAT Reference document for Large Combustion Plants (BREF LCP) has an impact on permit requirements, too.
This workshop is intended to provide involved representatives from power plants with a platform for discussion on flue gas cleaning. The VGB Workshop offers experience in planning, construction, operation and updating of ESP, FGD and SCR as part of the power plant. The knowledge presented is based on long-term operation experience, recent construction of new flue gas cleaning units and updating of existing flue gas cleaning units. The workshop includes a site visit to a coal-fired power plant, retrofitted with wet limestone FGD and SCR.
