SECTION 15864N
DUST AND GAS COLLECTOR, DRY SCRUBBER AND FABRIC FILTER TYPE
09/99
**************************************************************************
NOTE: This guide specification covers the
requirements for furnishing, installing, adjusting,
and testing of a dry flue gas desulfurization (FGD)
scrubber(s) and fabric filter baghouse(s) system.
Comments and suggestions on this guide specification
are welcome and should be directed to the technical
proponent of the specification. A listing of
technical proponents, including their organization
designation and telephone number, is on the Internet.
Recommended changes to a UFGS should be submitted as
a Criteria Change Request (CCR).
Use of electronic communication is encouraged.
Brackets are used in the text to indicate designer
choices or locations where text must be supplied by
the designer.
**************************************************************************
**************************************************************************
NOTE: The dry FGD scrubber(s) is intended to be
used for flue gas sulfur dioxide removal and
collection associated with coal-fired boilers.
Coal-fired boilers applicable to this specification
are those designed with capacities ranging between
6.30 and 31.50 kg of steam per second 50,000 and
250,000 pounds of steam per hour. The design shall
be as a system where one manufacturer is responsible
for the fabric filter baghouse and the dry FGD
scrubber. There are probably no manufacturers that
can meet all the specifications. Discretion must be
exercised to determine which deviations are
acceptable. Removing either the dry FGD or the
fabric filter baghouse out as a separate design or
purchase is not acceptable.
