Download or read book Emissions Abating Technology Adoption Under the SO2 Permit Market written by Bernardo Creamer and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SO2, sulfur dioxide, emissions generated by electric power plants account for a large proportion of the total emissions in the U.S.A. In 2008, electricity generation caused nearly 7.9 million tons of SO2 emissions out of a total of 9.5 million tons. The negative side effects of SO2 emissions have been thoroughly evaluated, especially health deterioration issues caused by acid rain and other unwanted impacts that generate significant social costs. In response to these effects, the U.S. Congress passed the Clear Air Act (CAA) in the 1970s to cut down SO2 among other emissions. The CAA Amendments (CAAA) of 1990 created a competitive cap-and-trade market for SO2 allowances that lowered overall emission levels. This paper builds a social network among the different states of U.S.A. based on the trade of coal during the period 1990 to 2005 to evaluate the factors that affect the decision of coal burning electric power firms to adopt emission abating technology. In particular, these companies follow one or a combination of these strategies to comply with the CAAA emission restrictions: 1) paying the new costs of emissions and continuing business as usual, 2) using higher quality inputs (lower sulfur coal) that generate less pollution, or 3) upgrading their processes and equipment to lower emissions. The main factors explored are prices and quantities of low and high sulfur coal, SO2 allowances prices, and the operation and maintenance cost of abating technology (flue-gas desulfurization (FGDs) or scrubbers). This paper concludes that firms respond to the imposition of pollution control regulations by selecting a strategy that simultaneously control emissions and minimize costs. The firms reduce their pollutions using higher quality inputs (sub-bituminous coal), investing in new emission abating technology or a combination of both approaches. The longitudinal social network analysis shows that the dynamic of the fuel network where there is an increasing adoption of technology by most of the states may explain, jointly with the reduction of gas prices, the collapse of the allowance market for SO2 after 2005.

Part C is the Macropedia of Subjects. The part is organized as alphabetical subject entries for a wide range of pollution controls, technologies, pollution prevention practices and tools, computational methods for preparing emission estimates and emission inventories and much more. More than 100 articles have been prepared by the author, providing a concise overview of each subject, supplemented by sample calculation methods and examples where appropriate, and references. Subjects included are organized and presented in a macropedia format to assist a user in gaining an overview of the subject, guidance on performing certain calculations or estimates as in cases pertinent to preliminary sizing and selection of pollution controls or in preparing emissions inventories for reporting purposes, and recommended references materials and web sites for more in-depth information, data or computational tools. Each subject entry provides a working overview of the technology, practice, piece of equipment, regulation, or other relevant issue as it pertains to pollution control and management. Cross referencing between related subjects is included to assist the reader to gain as much of a practical level of knowledge.

Download or read book Evaluation of Simultaneous SO2 NOX Control Technology written by Kevin R. Bruce and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 2 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 (CAAA) have led to accelerated research into novel sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxide (NOx) control technologies for coal-fired industrial boilers. One of these technologies combines sorbent injection and selective non-catalytic reduction for simultaneous SO2/NOx removal. The work presented herein concentrated on characterizing three process operational parameters of this technology: injection temperature, sorbent type, and reductant/pollutant stoichiometric ratio. A slurry composed of a urea-based solution (NOx OUT A or NOx OUT A+) and various calcium-(Ca-) based sorbents was injected at a range of temperatures and reactant/pollutant stoichiometries in a natural-gas-fired, pilot-scale reactor with doped pollutants. Up to 80% reduction of SO2 and NOx at reactant/pollutant stoichiometric ratios of 2 and 1.5, respectively, was achieved. SO2 emission reductions from slurry injection were enhanced moderately when compared with dry sorbent injection methods, possibly caused by sorbent fracturing to smaller, more reactive particles. Emissions from ammonia (NH3) slip (unreacted nitrogen-based reducing agent) and nitrous oxide (N2O) formation were reduced in comparison with other published results, while similar NOx reductions were obtained. increased carbon monoxide (CO) emissions, caused by the decomposition of urea, were moderate. Emissions of CO, NH3, and N2O for the enhanced urea solution (NOx OUT A+) were substantially less than the levels observed during urea (NOx OUT A) injection. The injection of the urea-based solution enhanced SO2 removal, probably because of the formation of (NH4)2CA(SO4)2 H2O. The results of this pilot-scale study have shown high reduction of both SO2 and NOx.
