Reliable lime slurry flow and concentration measurement for coal-fired power plants in Gdansk, Poland
POWER Reliable lime slurry flow and concentration measurement for coal-fired power plants in Gdansk, Poland RESULTS • Eliminated administrative workload and ongoing costs and achieved safety improvements by replacing nucleonic densitometers • Reduced pumping costs by using low pressure drop Magnetic flow meters • Reduced plant operating costs and improved the efficiency of the Flue Gas Desulphurization process APPLICATION Concerns over air pollution and increasingly demanding clean-air legislation require coal-fired power plants to remove sulphur dioxide (SO 2 ) pollutants from the flue gas produced during combustion before being emitted into the environment. This is achieved through the process of flue gas desulphurization (FGD) in a device called a scrubber where the gass
