Open full text 2 citations

Abstract

Alabama Electric Cooperative, Leroy, AL, has recently started up two 255 MW units, including a flue gas desulfurization system, at their Tomblgbee Station. The flue gas desulfurization system was designed by Peabody Process Systems, Inc., Stamford, CT. After 20 months operation, performance, in terms of start-up operations and maintenance, has been exceptionally good. This paper discusses those design factors which contributed to this successful performance.
