Description

This seminar educates participants on the operation and chemistry of flue gas desulfurization (FGD) systems, commonly known as scrubbers. The discussions focus on the B&W system designs, and include wet FGD utilizing a counterflow absorber tower and dry FGD using a spray dryer absorber. Included are the function and integration of an FGD system with a particulate emission control system, such as a baghouse or electrostatic precipitator (ESP). Other topics include instrumentation and control, and reagent preparation and handling. Emphasized is the value in adhering to performance and maintenance guidelines, and recognizing the opportunities for performance enhancements.

Who Should Attend?

This seminar is designed for operators, engineers and maintenance personnel who will benefit from familiarization with the design and operation of FGD and particulate control systems. The topics are designed for both entry- and advanced-level operation and maintenance personnel. An advanced degree is not required to benefit from this seminar, although engineering and chemistry or laboratory personnel are encouraged to attend. This seminar is not recommended for individuals seeking training for industrial FGD systems.
