India's new emissions rules: challenges and opportunities

Most of the new FGD systems are likely to be wet systems as seawater systems are generally only used in coastal areas. Given that India is aiming for increased self- sufficiency in coal production, fewer power plants in the future are likely to be located in coastal areas, a factor that will favour wet FGD systems over seawater systems.

SOx Control

May 19, 2019Wet FGD. The most commonly installed SOx removal technology solution is wet FGD. The first FGD system was installed at NTPC's 500 MW Vindhyachal Stage V project and is based on wet limestone technology. It has been able to achieve SOx emissions of 80-90 mg per Nm3 from an inlet of 1,200 mg per Nm3. Get price
