OBJECT AND SCOPE
The performance of a flue gas desulfurization system (FGDS) is defined to be the characterization of inputs and outputs (see Fig. 1.1). This may include, but is not necessarily limited to, the following:
(a) percent SO2 removal (%R)
(b) Reagent Ratio (RRI or RRR)
(c) energy/power consumption
(d) water consumption and characterization
(e) reagent consumption and characterization
(f) waste/by-product production and characterization
(g) Availability and Reliability. Availability and reliability of the FGDS are not within the scope of this Code.
