O&M Cost

This is a standard O&M cost result screen.

This screen displays tables for the variable and fixed operation and maintenance costs related to the water and carbon injection systems, both part of the overall mercury control option. The variable O&M costs are calculated from the variable costs for carbon, water consumption and fly ash disposal (from the particulate control device). The fixed O&M costs are based on maintenance and labor costs.

The mercury control option has the following variable cost components:

•Activated Carbon: This is the activated carbon cost for flue gas conditioning. Water: This is the water cost for flue gas conditioning.

•Additional Waste Disposal: This is the solid disposal cost per year for the flue gas conditioning. Only the removal of carbon from the particulate device is considered here.

•Electricity: This is the power utilization cost per year for the flue gas conditioning.
