O&M Cost

← Previous | Next →

This is a standard O&M cost result screen. The Wet FGD has the following variable cost components:

•Reagent: The total mass flow rate of lime or limestone injected into the scrubber on a wet basis. This is a function of the SO2 concentration in the flue gas and the Reagent Stoichiometry .

•Dibasic Acid: (Only shown when LS w/ Additives is chosen as the reagent .) This is the cost of dibasic acid (DBA) used for the wet FGD.

•Solid Waste Disposal: Total cost to dispose of the collected flue gas waste solids. This does not consider by-product gypsum sold in commerce.

•Electricity: Cost of power consumption of the scrubber. This is a function of the gross plant capacity and the Wet FGD Power Requirement performance parameter .

•Water: Cost of water for reagent sluice in the scrubber. This is a function of the Liquid to Gas Ratio performance parameter . The cost is a function of the flue gas flow rate and the reagent chosen on the Config screen.
