Reviewing Control Technologies

“A bad review is like baking a cake with all the best ingredients and having someone sit on it” -- Danielle Steel

Electricity Framework 5 Year Review: Control Technologies Review is very useful for getting up to speed on a broad range of technologies designed to minimize the impact on the environment caused by the generation of electricity.

Here is an excerpt …

ERG No. 3689.00.001.001
Electricity Framework 5 Year Review: Control Technologies Review
Final Report
Prepared for Clean Air Strategic Alliance
Prepared by Eastern Research Group, Morruisville, NC
January 21, 2009

This document presents the results of a determination of the Best Available Technology Economically Achievable (BACTEA) for multiple greenfield build electricity generating technologies for use in the Province of Alberta, Canada, as requested by the Clean Air Strategic Alliance (CASA).  Existing retrofit technologies are not assessed in this document.

The BACTEA analysis was conducted for control technologies used to reduce the emissons of four pollutants: nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulfur dioxide (SO2), particulate matter (PM), and mercury (Hg).  Additionally, the energy requirements for any control technologies analyzed were identified, and the resulting greenhouse gas emissions were estimated.  This document also discusses future technologies, control techniques, and the use of alternative fuels applicable to electric generating units.

The BACTEA determination was conducted for utility boilers and combustion turbines that are 25 megawatts (MWJ) or greater in size.  The determination was also conducted for various fuels burned.
