✦ Synopsis

Environment (pollution, health protection, safety) gas 802 as the raw material for a 803 conditioning system, and a promising new additive which performed well in laboratory-and pilot-scale tests. A second retrofit technology supplements all or most existing electrostatic precipitators with a pulse-jet baghouse. A third approach is an example of a new class of advanced filtration systems, some. of which can remove NO,, and particulates in the same vessel. Technologies like these will enable utilities to boost particulate removal effectiveness after switching to lower S coal for Clean Air Act compliance, minimize compliance costs, and optimally position themselves for possible further emission regulations.
