An electric power generation burns bituminous coal in a dry furnace at a rate of 200 tons/h. The plnat operates continuoulsy 8760 h/yr. The coal has higher heating value of 12,500 Btu/lbm, 3% sulfur and 8% ash, and 0.001% mercury (by weight). An electrostatic precipitator (ESP) removes sufficient flyash to satisfy the new source performance standards. (a) If all the mercury condenses on the minuscule flyash particles that are nor captured by ESP, estimate the mercury emissions (tons/yr). (b) If...

A typical coal-fired power plant burns 290 metric tons of coal every hour to generate 800 MW of electricity. 1 metric ton= 1000 kg. The density of coal is 1500 kg/m3 and its heat of combustion is 28 MJ/kg. Assume that all heat is transferred from the fuel to the boiler and that all the work done in spinning the turbine is transformed into electrical energy. Part A)Suppose the coal is piled up in a 8.0 m × 11 m...

You are assigned to help an aged 30% efficient 800-MW coal-fired power plant in Indonesia. You learnt that a warning has been issued to this power plant demanding that the rate of SO2 emission from this power plan has to be reduced to no more than 0.6 kg s. You find out that every million BTU of heat supplying into this aged plant emits 0.8 lb of SO2. Since this power plant is aged, its power generation can be easily...
