| Multi-Pollutant Emissions Control Requirements for Power Plants |
|---|
| Coal-Gen 2004 |
Examines the current status of proposed regulatory programs and their potential impacts on the power industry. Conflicts and synergisms between the programs are discussed as well as control technologies that might be employed to meet the new requirements. |
| Permitting a New Coal-Fired Electric Generating Unit Lessons Learned |
| Coal-Gen 2004 |
Describes the permitting process for a new coal-fired unit, focusing on experiences from recent permitting work for several proposed coal-fired projects. The NSR process is reviewed, and issues that can delay permitting are identified. Discussion focuses on the BACT analysis and issues associated with competing electricity generating technologies, condensible particulate matter, and startup/shutdown emissions. |
