Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a print on demand edition of a hard to find publication. Coal combustion waste (CCW) is inorganic material that remains after pulverized coal is burned for electricity production. Industry estimates that as much as 136 million tons were generated in 2008. On Dec. 22, 2008, national attention was turned to the waste when a breach in an impoundment pond at the TVA¿s Kingston, TN, power plant released 1.1 billion gallons of coal ash slurry. The cleanup cost may reach $1.2 billion. Contents of this report: (1) Intro.; (2) Overview of EPA¿s Proposal; (3) The Nature of CCW; (4) CCW Management Methods; (5) Risks Associated with CCW Mis-Management; (6) RCRA Provisions Relevant to EPA¿s Proposal (7) EPA¿s Proposed Regulatory Options; (8) Types of Coal Combustion Waste. Charts and tables.

Download or read book Combustion Ash Residue Management written by Richard W. Goodwin and published by William Andrew. This book was released on 2013-12-05 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Combustion Ash and Residue Management assists owners and operators of Coal-fired and Resource Recovery Power Plants. By applying the principles and reviewing the case studies examples described within this book, accidents and upsets can be avoided and regulatory permitting can be achieved – reducing costs. This unique book is an essential reference for anybody responsible for disposal or utilization of combustion residues. It reflects over 30 years of engineering practice, applying the principles of concrete chemistry and civil engineering/soil mechanics as confirmed by field data. Dr. Richard Goodwin assesses the composition and environmental impact of combustion residues, and provides not only best practices for safe disposal, but also a blueprint for effective reuse, including applications like structural fill, grout, and capping material. Case studies and cost information for ash disposal options are included, in addition to the lessons learned by high-profile failures, such as the TVA Kingston fossil plant coal fly ash slurry spill in 2008. It also applies engineering principles to discuss how to avoid future upsets, including better operator training and monitoring methods. A comprehensive update to reflect changes in legislation and practice, including new material on the safe disposal or beneficial use of coal ash A straightforward engineering approach, providing practical guidance and field data Written by an established expert in the field
Download or read book Managing Coal Combustion Waste CCW written by Linda Luther and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2011-04 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coal-fired power plants account for almost half of America¿s electric power, resulting in 136 millions tons of CCW. CCW contains a range of heavy metals such as arsenic, beryllium, chromium, lead, and mercury. The primary concern regarding CCW relates to the potential for hazardous constituents to leach into surface or groundwater, and hence contaminate drinking water, surface water, or living organisms. Contents of this report: (1) Disposal and Use Issues; (2) The Nature of Coal Combustion Waste; (3) Potential Risks Associated with CCW Management; (4) Regulatory History and Current Rulemaking; (5) Landfill and Surface Impoundment Disposal; Mine Disposal; ¿Beneficial Use¿.

Download or read book Round Robin Study of Leaching Methods as Applied to Solid Wastes from Coal Fired Power Plants written by IP. Murarka and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1979, the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) sponsored a multiple laboratory investigation of the variability and reproducibility of the U.S. EPA extraction procedure (EP) used for classifying wastes. In late 1985 and early 1986, EPRI sponsored another round-robin study to compare the results of EPA's new toxicity characteristics leaching procedure (TCLP) with the EP. In this latest study, three laboratories were used to extract and analyze the concentrations of 14 constituents (Ag, As, B, Ba, Cd, Cr, F, Hg, Mn, Pb, Se, SO4, V, and Zn) from seven utility wastes (three fly ashes, two bottom ashes, and two scrubber sludges). The results were evaluated to determine the reproducibility of the two methods, the factors contributing to the variability of the EP and TCLP extracts, and the differences in mean concentrations between the two extract types for the selected wastes. The results show that reproducibility differs by constituent, waste type, and between the two extraction methods. Generally, the concentrations measured in the TCLP results (as measured by the coefficient of variation) are equal to or better than the EP results (for example, for As, B, Cd, Cr, Mn, and V). Differences in the extractions between laboratories accounted for at least 25% of the total variability more frequently for the EP than the TCLP. For the TCLP, the analytical variability components (that is, differences in the analyses between laboratories and differences in analyses of duplicate splits by the same laboratory) accounted for at least 25% of the total variability more frequently.

Download or read book Clean Electricity Through Advanced Coal Technologies written by Nicholas P Cheremisinoff and published by William Andrew. This book was released on 2012-10-18 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coal power is a major cause of air pollution and global warming and has resulted in the release of toxic heavy metals and radionuclides, which place communities at risk for long-term health problems. However, coal-fired power plants also currently fuel 41% of global electricity. Clean Electricity Through Advanced Coal Technologies discusses the environmental issues caused by coal power, such as air pollution, greenhouse gas emissions and toxic solid wastes. This volume focuses on increasingly prevalent newer generation technologies with smaller environmental footprints than the existing coal-fired infrastructure throughout most of the world. These technologies include fluidized-bed combustion and gasification. It also provides an overview of carbon capture and sequestration technologies and closely examines the 2008 Kingston TVA spill, the largest fly ash release ever to have occurred in the United States. Each volume of the Handbook of Pollution Prevention and Cleaner Production covers manufacturing technologies, waste management, pollution issues, methods for estimating and reporting emissions, treatment and control techniques, worker and community health risks, cost data for pollution management, and cleaner production and prevention options. Discusses the environmental impact of coal power, including air pollution, greenhouse gas emissions and solid toxic wastes Focuses on newer coal technologies with smaller environmental footprints than existing infrastructure Provides an overview of carbon capture and sequestration technologies
