ABSTRACT
In conjunction with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)-
sponsored Shawnee test program, Bechtel National, Inc., and the Tennessee
Valley Authority (TVA) Jointly developed a computer model capable of pro-
jecting preliminary design and economics for lime- and limestone-scrubbing
flue gas desulfurization (FGD) systems. The model is capable of projecting
relative economics for spray tower, turbulent contact absorber (TCA), and
venturi-spray tower scrubbing options. It may be used to project the effect
on system design and economics of variations in required SC>2 removal,
scrubber operating parameters [gas velocity, liquid-to-gas (L/G) ratio, alkali
stoichiometry, liquor hold time in slurry recirculation tanks], reheat
temperature, and scrubber bypass. It may also be used to evaluate alternative
waste disposal methods or additives (MgO or adipic acid) on costs for the
selected process. Although the model is not Intended to project the economics
of an Individual system to a high degree of accuracy, it allows prospective
users to quickly project comparative design and costs for limestone and lime
case variations on a common design and cost basis.
The users manual provides a general description of the Shawnee FGD
computer model and detailed instructions for its use. It describes and
explains the user-supplied input data which are required such as boiler size,
coal characteristics, and S02 removal requirements. Output includes a
material balance, equipment list, and detailed capital investment and annual
revenue requirements. The users manual provides information concerning the
use of the overall model as well as sample runs to serve as a guide to
prospective users in identifying applications. The FORTRAN-based model is
maintained by TVA, from whom copies or individual runs are available.

SHAWNEE FLUE GAS DESULFURIZATION COMPUTER MODEL
USERS MANUAL
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Shawnee lime-limestone computer model was developed by Bechtel
National, Inc., and the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) to model lime-
limestone wet-scrubbing flue gas desulfurization (FGD) systems and is capable
of projecting comparative investment and revenue requirements for these
systems. The computer model has been developed to permit the rapid estimation
of relative economics of these systems for variations in process design alter-
natives (i.e., limestone versus lime scrubbing, alternative scrubber types, or
alternative sludge disposal methods), variations in the values of independent
design parameters [i.e., scrubber gas velocity and liquid-to-gas (L/G) ratio,
alkali stoichiometry, slurry residence time, reheat temperature, and specific
sludge disposal design], and the use of additives (MgO or adipic acid).
Although the model is not intended to compute the economics of an individual
system to a high degree of accuracy, it is based on sufficient detail to allow
the quick projection of preliminary conceptual design and costs for various
lime-limestone case variations on a common design and cost basis.
PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT
The technical development of the Shawnee lime-limestone computer model is
based on actual data obtained at the Shawnee test facility. Bechtel and TVA
shared the responsibility of model development. Bechtel was responsible for
analyzing the test results and developing the models which calculate the
overall material balance flow rates and stream compositions. Bechtel provided
these models to TVA. TVA was responsible for determining the size limitations
of the required equipment to establish the minimum number of parallel equip-
ment trains, accumulating cost data for the major equipment items, and devel-
oping models for projecting equipment and field material costs as a function
of equipment capacity. Utilizing these relationships, TVA developed models to
project the overall investment cost breakdown and a procedure for using the
output of the material balance and investment models as inputs to a previously
developed TVA model for projecting annual and lifetime revenue requirements.
The model has been periodically updated to include new or improved data
and process developments in FGD. The basic processes in the current model
consist of limestone and lime scrubbing; spray tower, turbulent contact
absorber (TCA), and venturi-spray tower absorbers; and pond or landfill
disposal. Process options include three alternative modes of forced oxidation
-------
and provisions for MgO or adipic acid addition. Several dozen additional
input and output options provide further flexibility in the use of the model.
The specific mathematical treatments of material balances, including
S02 removal efficiencies, are not fully documented in published works.
Descriptions of the mathematical treatment of S02 removal in spray tower and
TCA are given in Shawnee test facility reports (1).
The absorption of S02 into scrubbing liquid approximates the mass
transfer situation of absorption followed by a chemical reaction, a circum-
stance for which no comprehensive theoretical basis exists. Such treatment
requires mathematical expressions of turbulent fluid behavior and reaction
orders that cannot be rigorously defined. Overall mass transfer models are
usually based on modifications of general theoretical treatments that differ
in concept but mathematically approach similar conclusions in some cases.
Standard references (2) and texts (3) provide discussions and access to the
literature.
In practice, the mass transfer functions are reduced by a number of
simplifying assumptions based on a knowledge of the system and the likely or
probable important and unimportant factors. The mathematical expression at
once becomes manageable and specific to the situation, to which it can be
further correlated empirically. The development of such expressions is
discussed in detail by Wen and Fan (4), Rochelle and King (5), Chang and
Rochelle (6), and Wen and others (7), for specific FGD applications.
The Shawnee model expression is simplified by the assumptions that
liquid-side resistance controls the absorption rate and that liquid-phase
reactions are not limiting (that is, dissolved S02 does not significantly
affect the absorption rate). Both of these assumptions are supported by
experimental results (1).
o
S02 = 1 - exp [- 6 KLaz/Hv]
The simplified expression for the fraction of S02 removed contains an
enhancement factor, 6, to represent the effects of chemical reaction and a
group (consisting of a liquid-side mass transfer coefficient, KL°; inter-
facial area, a; vertical distance, z; Henry's law constant, H; and gas
velocity, v) to represent physical absorption. The enhancement factor
contains expressions for pH, effective magnesium, flue gas, S02 content, and
in some cases, chloride concentration. The expression is fitted to Shawnee
test facility data for each particular absorber and absorbent combination
using eight coefficients. The fitted expressions have standard errors of
estimate of about 4J. Pressure drop expressions for the three absorbers were
developed by fitting expressions containing pertinent variables to Shawnee
test facility data. The development of these expressions is discussed in the
Shawnee test facility reports and symposium proceedings cited.

complete conceptual design package for these systems utilizing a spray tower,
TCA, or venturi-spray tower absorber, each with or without use of additives;
and with any of five sludge disposal options, including options with and
without forced oxidation. Flow diagrams illustrating these process alterna-
tives are shown in Appendix A. Ranges for basic design parameters are shown

The output of the model includes projections of annual and lifetime
revenue requirements to allow comparison of the economics of the alternative
system designs. The basis for these projections is described in the report
appendices.
The process technology _is divided into seven major areas to facilitate
projection of the process design and the estimated capital investment. The
facilities included in each area are Identified in the process description
along with the basis for design of the FGD system.
PROCESS DESCRIPTION
Processing Areas
The seven major processing areas used to define the limestone- and lime-
scrubbing systems are identified below along with a description of the facili-
ties included within the battery limits of each processing area, and the basis
for design of these facilities.
Raw Material Handling—
This area provides for receiving either limestone or lime. For the
limestone slurry process, the raw material-handling area includes equipment
for receiving limestone by truck or rail, a storage stockpile, and live in-
process limestone storage equipment.
For the lime slurry process, the raw material-handling area includes
equipment for receiving lime by truck or rail and a storage silo.
S-3
-------
The direct investment costs for the raw material-handling area includes
costs for all of the lime-limestone receiving equipment and field construction
materials up to and including the raw material feed bin.
Raw Material Preparation—
This area provides for preparation of a limestone or lime slurry for feed
to the S02 scrubbing area. The raw material preparation area for the lime-
stone slurry process includes gyratory crushers for crushing the limestone for
feed to the wet ball mills. The wet ball mills grind the limestone to the
desired size for feed to the scrubbers. The product slurry from the mills at
a concentration of 60$ solids is pumped to a slurry feed tank adjacent to the
scrubbing area for distribution to the scrubbers.
The raw material preparation area for the lime slurry process includes
equipment for slaking the lime at a concentration of 20$ to 25$ solids for
feed to the scrubbers. The product slurry from each of the slakers overflows
to a slurry receiving tank from which it is pumped to a common slurry feed
tank. The slurry is then pumped to the scrubbing area for distribution to the
scrubbers.
The direct investment costs for the feed preparation area include all
preparation equipment and field construction materials from the raw material
bin weigh feeder to the slurry feed tanks.
Gas Handling—
Flue gas from the power unit ducts is fed to a common plenum from which
any number of scrubber trains can be fed. To minimize the problems associated
with gas distribution for such a system, separate fans are included on each
side of the plenum. The power plant fans are conventional induced-draft (ID)
fans for balanced-draft boilers. The scrubber fans can be specified as
forced-draft (FD) or ID and are designed to overcome the pressure drop of the
pollution control facilities.
The direct investment costs for the gas-handling area include costs for
the flue gas equipment and field materials downstream of the air heater up to,
but excluding, the stack plenum. Costs for the scrubber fans are included;
however, costs for the power plant fan, the stack plenum, and the stack are
considered to be an integral part of the power plant and are, therefore, not
included in the estimate.
S02 Scrubbing—
Flue gas is contacted with a lime or limestone slurry in either a spray
tower, TCA, or venturi-spray tower. The absorbers are equipped with a
chevron-vane mist elimination system designed for upstream and downstream wash
with fresh makeup water. Makeup lime or limestone slurry from the slurry feed
tank and recycled supernate or filtrate from the waste disposal area are fed
to the absorber hold tanks where they are blended with the slurry draining
from the absorber. The slurry recirculation loop can be designed for use of
either one or two hold tanks below the absorber. For the 2-tank option, if
forced oxidation is specified, air is injected into the tank which receives
the effluent from the scrubber. Scrubber slurry is bled from this tank for
S-4
-------
disposal. Overflow from this tank flows by gravity to the second tank where
fresh limestone slurry Is added. The combined slurry Is then reclrculated to
the absorber and either the presaturator or venturl, depending on the process
selected. The bleedstream Is pumped to the waste disposal area where the
sludge Is dewatered. The supernate or filtrate Is returned to the scrubbing
and raw material preparation areas. The S02 scrubbing area can be designed
without the use of additives or with the use of either (1) MgO or (2) adlplc
acid to enhance SC>2 removal.
The S02 removal model can be run with any of the following four options
for relating stoichiometry, L/G ratio In the absorber, and 803 removal
efficiency:
Option Input Calculate
1 Stoichiometry, L/G S02 removal
2 Stoichiometry, S02 removal L/G
3 L/G, S02 removal Stoichiometry
4 Stoichiometry, L/G, and S02 removal Force-through alternative,
no calculation
Direct investment costs for the S02 absorption area include all slurry
and S02 absorption equipment and field construction materials between the
slurry feed tank and the waste disposal feed tank. Costs for a mechanical
collector may be included optionally.
Oxidation—
This area is an optional area which provides for oxidation of the S02
absorbed as calcium sulfite to calcium sulfate to facilitate subsequent
dewatering and disposal of the FGD wastes. If the forced-oxidation option is
not specified, the model results are based on only natural oxidation occurring
in the scrubbing loop with about 5%-20% of the absorbed S02 being In the
oxidized (calcium sulfate) form. Two forced-oxidation alternatives are
available: (1) within-loop forced oxidation in which air is sparged into the
absorber hold tank and scrubber slurry is recirculated to the absorber and (2)
bleedstream forced oxidation in which a bleedstream from the absorber is
sparged with air in a separate tank with the bleedstream subsequently
processed for disposal. In both oxidation alternatives, equipment, primarily
compressors and air spargers for option (1) and compressors, air spargers,
tanks, agitators, and pumps for option (2), are provided.
Direct investment costs for the oxidation area, when selected, include
costs for the equipment and associated field construction materials.
Reheat—
The outlet gas from the scrubber is reheated to the desired temperature
by either (1) indirect steam reheat, (2) blending scrubber outlet gas with hot
flue gas which bypasses the scrubber (only available if overall S02 removal
efficiency is less than 90£), or (3) a combination of (1) and (2). The
reheater gas is discharged to the stack plenum.
S-5
-------
Direct investment costs for the reheat area include costs for the
reheater equipment and field construction materials for installation.
Waste Disposal— .. ,
The model has provisions for the following five alternate waste disposal
options:
1. Onsite pond
a. Unllned pond
b. Clay-lined pond (cost and depth of clay lining is input)
c. Synthetic-lined pond (cost of liner is input)
2. Thickener - pond
3. Thickener - fixation fee
H. Thickener - filter - fixation fee
5. Thickener - filter - landfill
The onsite ponding options may also be run with fixation fees applied to
them. For alternatives 3 and 4, the fixation fee must include costs for
transportation and disposal of the fixed sludge off site. For alternatives 1
and 2, however, only the costs for fixation need to be provided since the
fixed sludge can be disposed of at the existing pond site. For alternative 5,
a landfill-fixation option may be provided using model calculations. Using
this option, the disposal facility is appropriately sized for the additional
fixation volume requirements.
For the waste disposal alternatives, the model allows for the onsite
facility to be sized larger or smaller than the normal projected lifetime
capacity. This option has been incorporated (1) to account for variations in
the sulfur content of fuel, (2) to evaluate design philosophy in construction
of ponds or landfills for less than the total amount of sludge to be disposed
(this requires assessment of additional costs for enlarging the waste disposal
area later), or (3) to allow the feed preparation and scrubbing areas to be
sized based on maximum sulfur contents expected while sizing the waste
disposal area based on average sulfur contents.
Direct Investment costs for the waste disposal area include costs for the
equipment and field construction materials downstream of the waste disposal
feed tank including those associated with the supernate return pumps and
piping.
Process Equipment Design Basis
Based on results from the material balance model and some user-supplied
variables, major process equipment is specified by area. The equations for
S-6
-------
predicting equipment costs were updated in 1983. The design assumptions used
as a basis for projecting the size or specifications of the major process
equipment are given below for each major equipment item included in the
alternative PGD options.
Gyratory Crushers-
Two parallel 50% capacity gyratory-type crushers are utilized to reduce
the inlet stone size from minus 1-1/2 inches to minus 3M inch for feed to the
ball mills.
Ball Mills—
The grinding mills are rubber-lined, open-circuit, overflow wet ball
mills that have a 30$ ball charge and produce a 60% slurry. The number of
ball mills is determined by total mill horsepower calculated from the lime-
stone throughput rate specified in the material balance, and the fineness of
grind and limestone hardness factors which are program inputs. The fineness
of grind index factor is related to the desired particle size distribution of
the ground limestone. One-mill systems are used for horsepower less than 200
and two parallel mill systems for horsepower between 200 and 5,000. For
horsepower greater than 5,000, the number of parallel mill systems is deter-
mined assuming a maximum mill size of 2,500 horsepower.
Lime Storage Silo—
A 30-day dead storage capacity is used to calculate the volume of the
lime storage silos. The silos are concrete, with the height of the actual
storage section of the silo assumed to be one and a half times the diameter.
Total height of the silo is equal to the height of the actual storage section
plus the height of the carbon steel hopper plus 5 feet. Parallel storage
silos are used for storage volumes greater than the capacity of the largest
silo (U7,200 ft3).
Lime Slaker—
Lime is slaked at slurry concentrations of 20% to 25$ solids in dual-
compartment, overflow slakers which can be designed with slaking capacities of
up to 33 ton/day. Parallel slaking trains are used for larger lime capaci-
ties. The number and size of parallel slakers required are determined based
on the capacity of the largest size slaker available (33 ton/day).
Fans—
The fans are centrifugal (double width, double inlet) with radial impel-
lers. The FD fans are constructed of carbon steel and the ID fans are con-
structed of Inconel 625. They are equipped with variable-speed fluid drives.
Fan horsepower is calculated based on the inlet gas flow rate per train and
the calculated pressure drop for the scrubber, mist eliminator, reheater, and
duct.
Scrubbing Trains—
The following procedures are utilized for determining the size or speci-
fications of the major process equipment in the scrubbing area. The number of
parallel scrubbing trains is either an input to the program or is established
as an override to the 'input value based on the minimum number of scrubber
S-7
-------
trains required. The minimum number of trains is calculated considering the
saturated flue gas velocity and volumetric flow rate at the scrubber outlet in
conjunction with the maximum cross-sectional area assumed for the scrubber
(1,370 ft2). Flue gas and slurry recirculation rates per train are calcu-
lated by dividing the total flow rates from the overall material balance model
by the number of operating scrubbing trains.
Scrubbers—
Scrubber cross-sectional area is calculated considering the outlet flue
gas rate per train in conjunction with the specified scrubber design gas
velocity. Number of scrubber grids, beds, and height of spheres per bed are
inputs to the program. The height of the scrubber is assumed to remain
constant for all scrubber sizes and internal configurations. A presaturator
compartment is included at the scrubber inlet for the TCA and spray tower, and
chevron-type mist eliminators are included near the outlet. Materials of
construction for the scrubbers and internals are listed below.
Venturi: Carbon steel with acid-resistant lining
Shell: Rubber-lined carbon steel
Grids: Type 316L stainless steel
Spheres: 1-1/2-inch-diameter, Nitrile foam
Mist eliminator, slurry header, and nozzles: Type 316L stainless steel
Tanks—
The size or specifications of tanks, agitators, and pumps for each of the
areas are determined by utilizing the following procedures. Tank volume is
calculated based on the residence time, which is either a program input or
assumed. An additional 10$ volume is added for freeboard. All tanks are
constructed of carbon steel and the slurry tanks are flake glass lined.
Except for the absorber bleed receiving tanks and the thickener overflow
tanks, each tank is designed with diameter equal to height up to a maximum
height of 60 feet. For tanks larger than 60 feet in diameter, tank height is
fixed at 60 feet and diameter is calculated. Absorber bleed receiving tank
height is equal to the effluent hold tank height and the diameter is calcu-
lated. Thickener overflow tank height is set equal to the height of the
thickener and the diameter is calculated. As an override to the calculated
diameter, a minimum diameter equal to one-half the height is fixed for all
tanks. The thickener and filter feed tanks are not used unless more than one
thickener or filter is required.
Agitators—
All slurry tanks are equipped with a 4-blade, pitched-blade, turbine
agitator. Agitator horsepower requirements are calculated on the basis of
total torque, which is a function of the degree of agitation required
(expressed as torque/unit volume), total tank volume, tank diameter, and the
S-8
-------
slurry specific gravity. Unit torque (torque/unit volume) for each tank is
determined as a function of the percent solids in the slurry.
Slurry Pumps—
All slurry pumps are rubber lined, centrifugal with water seals, and are
equipped with either a variable- or constant-speed drive. Pumps are usually
spared, with the number of operating pumps determined by the maximum available
pump size of 20,000 gpm.
Water Pumps-
Vertical, multiple-stage, turbine makeup water pumps capable of providing
a static head of 200 feet are provided for each 10,000 gpm of water required.
The pumps are carbon steel and spared.
Compressors—
The compressors are sized to provide sufficient air (oxygen) for oxi-
dizing the CaS03'1/2H20 to CaSOn*2H20. The stoichiometric
quantity of S02 absorbed is multipled by an input stolchiometry, usually
2.5, to determine the stoichiometric quantity of oxygen to be added. The
quantity of air is then determined for sizing the compressors.
Reheaters—
Reheater cross-sectional area is calculated based on the superficial gas
velocity (usually 20 to 25 ft/sec) which is input to the program and the
volumetric gas flow rate per train at scrubber outlet conditions. Reheater
surface area requirements are calculated in two steps: (1) surface area
requirements for reheat to 150°F and (2) requirements for reheat to the
specified reheat temperature. The portion of the reheater tubes required to
reheat to 150°F are Inconel and the remaining tubes are Cor-Ten. Reheater
design and costs are based on use of 1-inch tubes on a 2-inch square pitch.
Thickeners—
The thickeners are constructed of carbon steel tank walls coated with
epoxy paint and 1-foot-thick concrete conical basins. Thickeners are equipped
with rake mechanisms. A concrete underflow tunnel, including pumps and piping
for transferring the slurry, is included. Total thickener cross-sectional
area is calculated by the material balance portion of the model as a function
of the settling rate and settled solids density, which are Inputs into the
program, and the quantity of sludge in the effluent slurry calculated in the
material balance model. The number of thickeners required Is determined
assuming a maximum thickener diameter of 400 feet. Thickener height Is
calculated as a function of the diameter.
Filters-
Rotary drum vacuum filters constructed of carbon steel and equipped with
a vacuum pump, a filtrate pump, and a vacuum receiver are utilized. Filter
size is determined as a function of the filtration rate expressed In tons of
dry solids/ft2/day, which is a program input, in conjunction with the total
quantity of sludge. The minimum and maximum sizes of filters considered have
effective filtration areas of 50 and 900 ft2, respectively. Single filters
are used up to required filtration areas of 100 ft2. For total filtration
S-9
-------
areas between 100 and 1,800 ft*, two parallel filters are assumed. For
total filtration areas greater than 1,800 ft2, the number and size of
parallel filters required are determined based on the capacity of the largest
filter size.
Field Construction Materials Design Basis
Costs for field construction materials are based on the materials of
construction or specifications discussed below.
Piping—
Carbon steel pipe and gate valves are used for all waterlines including
pond supernate. For slurry lines less than 3-inch diameter, stainless steel
pipe is used; whereas, for all larger size lines, rubber-lined carbon steel
piping is used. Stainless steel strainers are used for pipes less than H-inch
diameter and rubber-lined strainers are used for 4-inch-diameter and larger
pipes. For slurry lines less than 3-inch diameter, stainless steel plug
valves are used. Eccentric plug valves are used for slurry lines between 3-
and 20-inch diameter, and knife gate valves are used for lines greater than
20-inch diameter. Handwheel operators are used for valves less than 12-inch
diameter and air cylinder actuators for larger valves. Typical piping layouts
are assumed as functions of flow capacities and the number of trains and costs
are correlated to flow rates in gal/min. Control valve costs are included in
instrumentation. Costs are included for a rubber-lined downcomer from the
scrubber to the effluent hold tank and a spare slurry disposal line to the
disposal site.
Ductwork—
Costs are included for the inlet plenum and all ductwork between the
inlet and stack plenums including insulation. Costs for the stack plenum are
not included since this plenum is required even if an FGD system is not
installed. Stack plenum elevation is set equal to effluent hold tank height
with a minimum elevation of 20 feet for small hold tanks. Each scrubber train
includes two guillotine dampers and costs for expansion joints.
Two partial scrubbing or emergency bypass ducts, each designed for a
minimum of 25% of the total gas flow rate from the boiler, are included in the
costs. Each duct includes two louver-type dampers and costs for expansion
joints.
Materials of construction for all ductwork is 3/16-inch Cor-Ten with the
exception of ductwork between the scrubber and reheater outlet which is 3/16-
inch type 316 stainless steel. All ductwork is insulated with 2-inch rock
wool. Duct size is based on a square cross section and a nominal design
velocity of 3,000 ft/min at local inlet conditions.
Foundations—
Concrete foundations for each equipment item are fixed according to
equipment sizes. Foundations for the structure are estimated on the basis of
the weight of the structure.
S-10
-------
Structures—
Structural estimates are based on the structure arrangement shown in the
body of the report. The total quantity of structure required for each
scrubber train and the corresponding costs are related to effluent hold tank
volume, scrubber cross-sectional area, and number of scrubbing trains.
Electrical—•
The electrical estimate is divided into four sections: (1) costs of
feeder cables from the power plant transformer yard to field modules for each
area; (2) transformer costs for each area; (3) costs of power supply from area
field modules to individual motors; and (4) motor control costs between remote
control center, field module location, and individual motors for each area.
For each area, total connected motor horsepower is calculated for use in
establishing costs for (1) and (2). Costs for (3) and (4) are based on
individual motor sizes and number of connected motors. A typical layout is
assumed for each area in reference to the power plant transformer yard, remote
control center, and other areas.
Instrumentation—
Instrumentation costs are based on (1) fixed costs for instruments which
do not change In size and cost with equipment and pipe size variations and (2)
variable costs for Instruments which increase in size and cost as equipment
and pipe sizes increase. Each of these costs may be dependent upon number of
scrubbing trains, number of ball mills, number of pumps, etc. Costs are
included for control valves, graphic boards and panelboards, annunciator, air
dryers and piping, and instrument cable and wiring systems.
Buildings—
The control room and motor control center are integrated with the power
plant and prorated costs are included. Costs are included for a building to
house the limestone-grinding or lime slaking facilities. Buildings to house
the oxidation and/or disposal area equipment are included as appropriate. All
buildings are sized as a function of the equipment size and number of equip-
ment items and are constructed with concrete floors and corrugated aluminum
siding, supported by a steel frame. They are insulated to a value of R-19
using fiberglass insulation.
Pond Construction-
Disposal pond size is calculated based on a square configuration with a
diverter dike three-fourths the length of one side. A pond construction
diagram is shown in Appendix B. The pond model is based on either unlined,
clay-lined, or synthetic-lined design and includes the following options in
running the program:
Fixed-depth pond
Optimum-depth pond based on minimum pond Investment
Optimum-depth pond based on minimum pond investment with available
acreage and maximum excavation depth as overriding constraints
S-ll
-------
In addition to specifying pond design, the model also itemizes the break-
down of projected pond costs.
Landfill Construction— _. ., ...
Disposal landfill size is calculated based on a square configuration with
the cap sloping up to a point. A landfill construction diagram is shown in
Appendix B.
A separate model is included to design and cost the onsite landfill. The
landfill model is based on either unlined, clay-lined, or synthetic-lined
design.
MODEL USAGE
The Shawnee model can be of use to utility companies or architectural and
engineering firms involved in the selection and design of SC>2 removal
facilities. The model also has potential for use by environmental groups or
regulatory agencies. Although it is not intended to b*» used for projecting a
final design, it can be used to assist in the evaluation of system alterna-
tives prior to a detailed design. It should also be useful for evaluating the
potential impact of various process variables on economics as a guide for
planning.
Although the model was not meant to be used for comparing projected
lime-limestone economics with economics for alternate processes, these
comparisons should be valid as long as the bases for the alternate process
economics are comparable to those included in the computer model for lime and
limestone systems.
The body of this report contains information required to run the overall
computer model.

SHAWNEE FLUE GAS DESULFURIZATION COMPUTER MODEL
USERS MANUAL
INTRODUCTION
The Shawnee flue gas desulfurization (FGD) computer model projects the
major design and operating conditions and the detailed economics of various
lime and limestone FGD process alternatives for coal-fired utility boilers
from user-supplied input data. Development of the model was sponsored by the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The model is maintained by the
Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), from whom the complete model or individual
runs are available. This manual provides a general description of the model
and its uses. It includes additions and revisions to the model that have been
made since publication of the previous users manual in 1981.
The model is general in nature and is capable of projecting conceptual
designs and economics for a range of power plant and FGD conditions. The
results are similar to those of preliminary conceptual design evaluations in
which absolute accuracies are about -15$ to +30$ and comparative accuracies
are about -10$ to +10$. The model is most useful for projecting preliminary
comparisons of FGD alternatives (type of absorbent, absorber design, and
operating conditions, for example) and evaluation of the effects of design
criteria [gas velocity, liquid-to-gas (L/G) ratio, S02 removal efficiency,
and stoichiometry, for example]. As such, it is most useful in preliminary
studies and screenings leading to detailed design studies and in planning
research and development activities.
-------
-------
GENERAL INFORMATION
BACKGROUND
From 1968 to 1980, EPA sponsored the development of lime and limestone
FGD technology at a test facility located at TVA's Shawnee Steam Plant near
Paducah, Kentucky. TVA was the constructor and operator of the facility and
Bechtel National, Inc., was the primary contractor. The test facility
consisted of three prototype FGD systems, each with a capacity of 30,000
aft3/min of flue gas (equivalent to 10 MW of generating capacity). One
system had a venturi-spray tower absorber and one had a mobile-bed absorber
[Turbulent Contact Absorber (TCA)]. The third system originally had a marble-
bed absorber that was operated only briefly and eventually converted to a
cocurrent absorber system.
Most of the test work involved operation of venturi, spray tower,
venturi-spray tower, and TCA absorbers. Initially, an extensive series of
lime and limestone FGD tests was made over a wide range of conditions. In
1976, forced-oxidation tests were begun and the use of magnesium oxide (MgO)
to enhance S02 removal efficiency was investigated. In 1979 and 1980, an
equally extensive series of tests using adipic acid to enhance S02 removal
efficiency was made. In all, over a decade of almost continuous assessment
and development of lime and limestone FGD technology was conducted, resulting
in a very large and comprehensive body of information.
The main phase of the testing at Shawnee was conducted from 197*1 through
1978 as the "Advanced Test Program," which has been reported in detail by
Bechtel (1). The adipic acid tests were conducted after this period (8).
Formal support of the test program by EPA ended in 1980. The facility is
still operated by TVA for various FGD evaluations, but the results of most of
these tests are not directly applicable to development of the Shawnee model.
The data developed during the tests sponsored by EPA were used to develop
a computer model to project conceptual designs and economics for lime and
limestone FGD processes. Bechtel developed computer procedures to project
material balances, flow rates, and stream compositions. TVA developed
computer procedures to project the economics of the processes. These were
based on premises and procedures developed by TVA, EPA, and others for the
evaluation of FGD economics. All of the computer procedures were combined
into an overall model composed of two computer programs. One program projects
the major equipment requirements and costs and the total capital investment.
The second program projects the annual revenue requirements.
-------
Since 1974, when development of the model began, the model has been
periodically updated to reflect current technology and economic conditions.
In 1979 and again in 1981 (9), users manuals were published for the model as
it existed then. Since that time, further revisions and additions have been
made. The major revisions consist of a refinement and expansion of the
forced-oxidation and adipic acid options, inclusion of a waste fixation option
and a landfill disposal option, and revision of the equipment and installation
cost models to reflect base costs obtained in 1983-
DOCUMENTATION
This manual provides the information and procedures necessary to use the
model but it does not describe the concepts and mathematics upon which it is
based. No fully comprehensive description of this basis has been published
because of the frequent revisions and additions that have been made during the
course of its development. The original chemical equilibrium model which was
developed by the Radian Corporation has been discussed (10), as have earlier
versions of the model (11). The Advanced Test Program reports by Bechtel (1)
discuss many aspects of the design and performance of the conceptual designs
used. Process flowsheets and layout drawings are included in Appendix A for
the alternative process and waste disposal options which are available in the
model. The design and economic premises in Appendix B provide additional
detail on the design basis and the economic calculations. Economic studies by
TVA (12), based in whole or part on the Shawnee computer model, discuss design
and economic aspects and provide examples of the economic evaluations and
comparisons.
SCOPE OF THE MODEL
There are three absorber options: spray tower, TCA, and venturi, each of
which can be used alone or as venturi-spray tower or venturi-TCA combinations
with either limestone or lime absorbent. Forced oxidation in various configu-
rations can be used with most of the absorber options. Adipic acid or MgO
additive options are also available with most absorber configurations.
Numerous design and operating condition options are available. Waste disposal
options include ponding, landfill, and fixation and landfill.
The equipment size and layout configurations are based on power units
between 100 MW and 1,300 MW in size and coal sulfur contents of 1$ to 5$. The
ranges of other critical variables are:
Absorber gas velocity 8-12.5 ft/sec
Absorbent liquid recirculation rate 25-120 gal/kaft3
Hold tank residence time 2-25 minutes
Number of absorber trains 1-10
Flue gas S02 concentration 600-4,000 ppm
-------
The validity of results for conditions outside these ranges has not been
determined. Results for intermediate-sized plants outside these ranges may be
valid, however.
Several model runs may be required to fully analyze the combined effects
of individual input conditions, especially if the ranges specified above are
exceeded. The effects of variations in inputs (such as absorber gas velocity,
L/G ratio, absorbent stoichiometry, 802 removal efficiency, and reheat
temperature) can be assessed individually or the cumulative effect can be
assessed by varying several conditions simultaneously.
AVAILABILITY
The model is available to the public through TVA under an information
exchange agreement between EPA and TVA. Upon receipt of a written request,
TVA provides a copy of the model suitable for loading onto an IBM-370-
compatible computer system, along with FORTRAN program listings and the
documentation required to execute the model. Under the same information
exchange agreement, TVA will make model runs based on user-supplied input
data. This allows users to analyze the capabilities of the model with a
minimum amount of investigation and investment.
The model is based on the requirements and specifications of the G1
compiler and FORTRAN66 language. The model is executed in FORTRAN66 on the VS
FORTRAN compiler using the FORTRAN66 option. It cannot be used with systems
based exclusively on FORTRAN?? or VS FORTRAN.
Model options and input variables are added and modified on a regular
basis. The latest version is usually supplied to users and is typically the
basis for user runs made by TVA. Model and documentation availability is
subject to limitations based on available funding and the costs that must be
incurred in connection with a user request.
A detailed list of all of the model inputs is included in Tables C-1 and
C-2 of Appendix C. These tables include a number of options for selecting
process design and controlling model output. Types of options are listed

MODEL DESCRIPTION
INPUT
The model requires a minimum of 15 lines of input. Free-form format is
specified and blank spaces are required between variables except for the
CASEID (line 4) and the END or NEXT variable (last line of data set) which are
alpha-numeric format. Individual values may be specified to the desired
precision provided the total characters, including separators, do not exceed
72 per line. Additional input is required when a user-specified operating
profile is chosen instead of the built-in profiles. A detailed FORTRAN
variable list of the model input is shown in Table C-1 of Appendix C. The
variables are defined in Table C-2 of Appendix C. Ranges for key variables to
aid in establishing input data to the model are shown in Table 1.

-------
As new options are incorporated, the required inputs are subject to
change. When this occurs, the list of variables and the associated
definitions will be updated and made available as necessary.
OUTPUT
The outputs of the Shawnee lime-limestone computer model provide a
complete conceptual design package for lime or limestone scrubbing. They
consist of: (1) a detailed material balance, including properties of the
major streams; (2) a detailed water balance itemizing water availability and
water required; (3) specifications of the scrubbing system design; (4) a
display of overall pond or landfill design and costs; (5) specifications and
costs of the process equipment by major processing area; (6) a detailed break-
down of the capital investment; (7) an itemized breakdown of the revenue
requirements for the first year of operation of the system; (8) a lifetime
revenue requirement analysis showing projected costs for each year of opera-
tion, as well as lifetime cumulative and discounted costs and equivalent unit
revenue requirements; and (9) a particulate removal cost table which lists
operating conditions and itemizes capital investment and annual revenue
requirements for a cold-side electrostatic precipitator (ESP), a hot-side ESP,
a baghouse, or a particulate scrubber. However, upstream particulate removal
is independent of the FGD process and costs are not included in the FGD eco-
nomic projections. These outputs are illustrated in the base case printout
shown in Appendix D.
In addition to the outputs listed above, a diagnostic message file is
generated each time the model is executed. This file contains informative
messages related to processing such as data case number and title, possible
conflicts between options, variable values that may be out of range, and fatal
conditions that terminate model execution. In typical model runs made by TVA,
the message file is listed between the printed output from the capital invest-
ment program and the printed output from the annual revenue requirements
program, but this depends on the control language procedures used for execu-
tion. An example message file is shown in the base case printout in
Appendix D.
OPTIONS
A detailed list of all of the model inputs is included in Tables C-1 and
C-2 of Appendix C. These tables include a number of options for selecting
process design and controlling model output. Some examples of the options are
shown on the pages that follow. For illustration purposes, the appropriate
input data line is shown and the particular option code is indicated. An
explanation of each option and sample output resulting from its use is
provided where necessary- Unless a value of zero is required, nonzero values
for all variables must be entered for each case even though a variable value
is being calculated by the model as a result of a user-specified option. In
this case, the calculated value will override the input value. A value of
zero may result in a zero divide operation in some cases. Spaces cannot be
used to take the place of variables which have a value equal to zero.
-------
Some user-specified input values result in the use of default values of
other variables for consistency in the calculations. For the options that
allow defaults, the option code that must be input and the default values that
are assumed are described. All model output listings used to illustrate
individual options are derived from the base case data shown in Appendix D.
Only the variables related to options being illustrated are changed from the
base case unless otherwise noted.

The options on the first three lines of the input data control printed

further explanation. This option controls the printout of the capital invest-
ment and annual revenue requirements. The short form printout is shown in
Table 2 and may be compared with the long printout of the base case example in
Appendix D. The other print option requiring further explanation is the third
option on line 3 (IEQPR). This option controls the printing of all or
selected portions of the equipment list. These options are described in the
input definition list in Table C-2 of Appendix C.

XESP
The partlculate collection device option is controlled by the XESP
variable. The value of XESP may be 0, 1, or 2. A zero value is used if no
particulate removal device is to be considered. A value of 1 is used if a
mechanical collector (33$ efficient) is selected, and the code for upstream
removal (line 6, ASHUPS, see Table C-2) should have an input value of 33$ (%
removal). If an XESP value of 2 Is selected, a separate particulate removal
cost model (13) projects the capital investment and annual revenue require-
ments for particulate removal. The results are listed in the output but are
not included in the FGD costs. The percentage of particulate removal required
for this option is specified by the ASHUPS variable. Example output showing
the results of specifying mechanical collectors (XESP =1) is shown in
Table 3. Example output showing the results of using the built-in particulate
removal cost model is shown in the base case printout in Appendix D.

XRH TSTEAM HVS
The reheat option (XRH) allows for either an inline steam reheater for
the scrubbed gas or for no reheating of the scrubbed gas. The inline steam
reheater is the only type of reheater available in the current version of the
model. When a reheater is specified (XRH = 2), the TSTEAM variable is used to
specify the temperature of the reheater steam and the HVS variable is used to
specify the heat of vaporization of the reheater steam. For the base case,
steam at 470°F and 500 psia is used; a steam table should be used to
determine the latent heat of steam for other steam conditions. Example output
showing the results of specifying an inline steam reheater is shown in the
base case in Appendix D. When no reheating is specified (XRH = 0), the
reheater section is omitted from the printout. If partial scrubbing/bypass is
used (variable KPAS02, line 5 below), the reheat requirements are determined
by the final temperature of the recombined flue gas, which includes the heat
contribution of the bypassed flue gas.

KEPASS
The emergency bypass option (KEPASS) allows an emergency bypass around
the FGD system for one-half of the flue gas normally scrubbed as specified in
the premises (Appendix B). If only one operating scrubbing train is specified
(line 9, NOTRAN) then the emergency bypass is sized for all of the gas
normally scrubbed instead of only one-half. When both emergency bypass and
partial scrubbing/bypass (line 5, KPAS02 and PSS02X) are specified, the
emergency bypass is sized for 50$ of the gas normally scrubbed (100$ of the
gas normally scrubbed if only one operating train) plus the partial bypass
normally used for the unscrubbed gas (the total cannot exceed 100$). The
following values are used for the KEPASS option:
0 - No emergency bypass
1 - Emergency bypass
An example showing output when an emergency bypass is specified is shown in
the base case printout in Appendix D.

KPAS02 PSS02X
The partial scrubbing/bypass option (KPAS02) allows FGD systems to be
projected for conditions in which all of the flue gas does not have to be
scrubbed to meet specified emission levels. The percent removal in the
absorber is specified with the PSS02X variable and the model will calculate
the percentage of flue gas that can be bypassed (if any) while still meeting
the emission limit or overall removal percentage specified (line 7, IS02 and
XS02)- The appropriate ductwork and reheater adjustments are made as
required, depending on the amount of bypassed gas. When the partial
scrubbing/bypass option is specified, the emergency bypass duct is also used
for the gas normally bypassed, as discussed above. Partial scrubbing/bypass
is not allowed when S02 removal is calculated from scrubber operating
conditions (line 7, ISR = 3). The following values are used for the KPAS02
option:
0 - No partial scrubbing/bypass
1 - Partial scrubbing/bypass
Example output showing partial scrubbing/bypass specified is shown in Table 4
based on an emission limit of 1.2 Ib S02/MBtu.

firing rate of cleaned coal based on the raw coal characteristics, the coal-
cleaning conditions, and the boiler megawatt rating and heat rate. The cor-
responding flue gas composition is used to determine the S02 removal
required in the FGD system.
In line 5, the variable PREC specifies the weight percent recovery in
pounds of cleaned coal per 100 pounds of raw coal, SPASH specifies the weight

percent of sulfur In the cleaned coal, and WPRITE specifies the weight percent
of pyritlc sulfur in the raw coal. In line 5B, which is required only if the
coal-cleaning option (KCLEAN =1) is specified, SMRW specifies the surface
moisture of the raw coal, SMCL specifies the surface moisture of the cleaned
coal, ASHCLN specifies the ash content of the cleaned coal, and HVCLN
specifies the heating value of the cleaned coal.
When the 1979 new source performance standards (NSPS) emission limit is
automatically calculated by the model (line 7, IS02 = 4), the appropriate
credit for coal cleaning will also be automatically calculated by the model on
a raw coal basis. In all other cases, the emission limit or removal percent-
age (line 7, IS02 and XS02) must be specified on a cleaned coal basis or must
be calculated by the model from FGD operating conditions (line 7, ISR = 3).
Coal cleaning is not allowed when the flue gas composition is specified
directly (line 6, INPOPT = 2). The following values are used for the KCLEAN
option:

INPOPT
The input composition option (INPOPT) allows the flue gas composition to
be specified directly instead of being calculated by the model from a coal
composition. This allows the model to be used to project FGD systems for
other than coal-fired boilers. The variables described for line 6A (C, H, 0,
N, S, Cl, ash, H20, etc.; see Table C-2) should be used when the coal compo-
sition is specified; the variables described for line 6B (C02, HC1, S02,
02, N2, H20, etc.; see Table C-2) should be used when the flue gas
composition is specified directly. Coal cleaning (line 5, KCLEAN = 1) and the
automatic calculation of 1979 NSPS emission levels (line 7f IS02 = 4) are not
allowed when the flue gas composition is specified directly. The following
values are used for the INPOPT option:

coal composition as input (INPOPT = 1) is shown in the base case printout in
Appendix D. When a flue gas composition is specified, a "HOT GAS ANALYSIS"

IASH ASHUPS ASHSCR
The particulate removal variables are IASH, ASHUPS, and ASHSCR. The IASH
option identifies the method for specifying particulate removal, i.e., as
percent removal or as outlet emission in Ib/MBtu. IASH may take values of 0,
1, 2, or 3. If IASH is equal to 0, upstream particulate removal (ASHUPS) and
absorber particulate removal (ASHSCR) take default values of 33? and 99.2$
removal, respectively. If IASH equals 1, ASHUPS and ASHSCR are input as
percent removal. If IASH equals 2, ASHUPS and ASHSCR are input particulate
loadings in Ib/MBtu at the outlet of the upstream particulate collector and
the absorber, respectively. If IASH equals 3, ASHUPS is input as percent
removal and ASHSCR takes a default value of 75$. Regardless of the option
chosen, the output listing provides the equivalent particulate emission as
both percent removal and Ib/MBtu. A summary of the options is shown below.
IASH = 0 ASHUPS default value = 33$ removal
ASHSCR default value = 99.2$ removal
IASH = 1 ASHUPS input value as percent removal
ASHSCR input value as percent removal
IASH = 2 ASHUPS input value as Ib/MBtu to absorber
ASHSCR input value as Ib/MBtu from absorber
IASH = 3 ASHUPS input value as percent removal
ASHSCR default value equals 75$ removal
Example output showing the results of specifying particulate removal based on

IS02 XS02
The model has five methods for specifying S02 outlet concentrations or
removal. The controlling variables are the IS02 option and the actual value
to be removed, XS02. If IS02 = 1, XS02 is input as the percentage of S02 to
be removed. (The percentage of S02 to be removed is used as the percent
removal by the absorber except when partial scrubbing is specified with the
KPAS02 option on line 5.) If IS02 = 2, XS02 is input as the absorber outlet
emission expressed as pounds S02/MBtu. If IS02 = 3, XS02 is input as ppm
S02 in the absorber outlet stream. If IS02 = 4, S02 removal is automati-
cally calculated by the model from the input coal composition based on the
1979 NSPS (14). Figure 1 illustrates the relationship between the S02
content of the raw coal and the controlled outlet emission levels used in the
model for the 1979 NSPS. The fifth method for specifying SC>2 removal, S02
removal calculated, is described in the operating condition options section
(line 7, ISR = 3). Regardless of the option chosen, the equivalent S02
removal in all three units is displayed in the model output. The input value
is shown as having been specified and the other values are shown as having
been calculated. A summary of the input options is shown below.
IS02 = 1 XS02 is input as percent removal
IS02 = 2 XS02 is input as pounds S02/MBtu at the absorber outlet
IS02 = 3 XS02 is input as ppm S02 in the absorber outlet stream
IS02 = 4 XS02 will be automatically calculated by the model based
on the 1979 NSPS
Example output showing the results of specifying emission limits based on the
1979 NSPS is shown in the base case printout in Appendix D.
An important concept related to SC>2 removal calculations in the model
should be emphasized here. The S02 removal options are based on long-term
average sulfur content of the coal and are not necessarily representative of
3-hour or 24-hour averages. When sizing an FGD facility, the raw material-
handling, feed preparation, and scrubbing areas should be based on the maximum
sulfur content of the coal rather than the long-term average. The waste
disposal area, however, should be sized on the long-term average sulfur
content. This can be done by entering the weight percent sulfur as the
maximum expected and then entering the waste disposal capacity factor (line
14, PNDCAP) to adjust the total amount of waste generated back to the
equivalent long-term average amount.

PHLIME
Four options are available in the model to allow either user input or
model calculation of the major operating conditions which include L/G
(expressed as absorber liquid recirculation rate in gallons per 1,000 aft3
of flue gas at the absorber outlet), stoichiometry (expressed as mols CaCOg
or CaO added per mol of 803 + 2HC1 absorbed), and 803 removal. The
options differ slightly for the limestone system, the additive-enhanced
limestone system, and the lime-scrubbing system so the description is divided
into three sections.
For limestone scrubbing (line 7, XIALK =1), the variables used are ISR,
XLG, SRIN, and XS02. ISR is the controlling option and takes values from 0 to
3. If ISR has an input value of 0, the L/G (XLG), stoichiometry (SRIN), and
S02 removal (XS02, units depend on IS02) are all user input values. Speci-
fying ISR = 0 is referred to as "force-through" because no program checks are
made for validity or consistency among the three input variables to ensure
that specified L/G and stoichiometry can result in the input degree of
removal. If ISR is equal to 1, XLG and XS02 are input and the model calcu-
lates stoichiometry. If ISR is equal to 2, SRIN and XS02 are input and the
model calculates the L/G ratio. When ISR is equal to 3, XLG and SRIN are
input and the model calculates S02 removal. Values of 1.03 or greater
should be used for SRIN when it is specified as input because of logarithm
mathematical requirements. A summary of the various options for a limesttme-
scrubbing system is shown below.

Example output showing the results of specifying ISR = 1 is shown in the base
case printout in Appendix D.
Similar options are available for the adipic acid-enhanced limestone
system (line 7, IADD = 2). The variable PHLIME is used to input the pH of
absorber recirculating liquid. The pH has a critical effect on the calcula-
tion of L/G ratio and S02 removal and the user must understand the system so
that anomalous results are not produced. The adipic acid option is discussed
in more detail in Appendix E. A summary of the options is shown below. The
PHLIME option specifies pH. The AD option specifies the quantity of adipic
acid in the system in ppm.

Similar options are available in the lime-scrubbing option (line 7,
XIALK = 2). 'The variable PHLIME replaces SRIN except when ISR = 0 because for
lime scrubbing the model calculates the pH of the recirculation liquid instead
of the lime stoichiometry. (When limestone is specified, the value of PHLIME
is ignored. Whe# lime is specified, SRIN is ignored except when ISR = 0, in
which case PHLIME* is ignored.) A summary of the options for a lime system is
shown below.

The output listing for the lime option is similar to that for the lime-
stone option shown in Appendix D except that the stoichiometry is printed out
for CaO instead of CaC03, as shown in Table 6. (An input value of 7.85 is
used for PHLIME in this example.) For both the lime and limestone options, if
input values are specified for the variables that are to be calculated by the
model, the input values are ignored.

0 - No chemical additive
1 - MgO added
2 - Adipic acid added
If IADD = 1, variable XMGOAD is used to specify the quantity of MgO added
to the system (expressed as pounds of soluble MgO added per 100 pounds of
alkali feed). When IADD = 2, variable AD is used to specify the concentration
of adipic acid in the scrubber slurry [expressed as ppm (by weight) adiplc
acid] and variable ADDC specifies the degradation constant for adipic acid in
the scrubber slurry (expressed as pounds of adipic acid to be added per pound
of adipic acid remaining in the slurry after degradation).
Example output showing the results of adding adipic acid is shown in

RS IFOX OX
The forced-oxidation option (IFOX) provides for oxidation of the sulfite
slurry to gypsum by sparging air into one of the slurry tanks. Gypsum offers
better disposal options such as easier dewatering, a higher settling rate, and
a higher density. Variable RS is the thickener solids settling rate (ft/hr)
and may be user specified or will be automatically calculated based on the
percent oxidation of the scrubbing slurry by specifying a value of 0.0. The
following values are used for the IFOX option:
0 - No forced oxidation
1 - Forced oxidation in a single effluent tank (within the absorber loop)
2 - Forced oxidation in the first of two effluent tanks (within the
absorber loop)
3 - Forced oxidation in the disposal feed tank (bleedstrearn from the
absorber loop); the number of effluent tanks depends on the ISCRUB
variable (line 9)
The percent oxidation efficiency (0-99, in mol percent) in the system is
specified with the OX variable and should be specified in agreement with the
IFOX option. The number of tanks specified by the forced-oxidation option
must not conflict with the number of tanks indicated by the absorber option

comparative cost estimates for analysis and should normally be used only in
"force-through" mode (see the operating condition calculation option, ISR, on

NSPREP NOTRAN NOREDN
Options for spare equipment in the model apply to the raw material
preparation area and the scrubbing area. The controlling input variables are
NSPREP, NOTRAN, and NOREDN. NSPREP specifies the number of spare preparation
units (ball mills for limestone or slakers for lime) and may be given any
realistic value, 0, 1, 2, 3, .... NOTRAN specifies the number of operating
absorbers. The model automatically overrides the value of NOTRAN if the
specified number requires an absorber larger than the maximum available size.
NOREDN indicates the number of spare absorber trains. The base case equipment
list in Appendix D shows the output for a limestone-scrubbing system designed
with spare ball mills and absorbers. For comparison, Table 13 shows similar
output for a limestone system with no spare absorbers.

Six basic waste disposal options are available in the model (usually
these are based on a disposal site one mile from the FGD facility, as speci-
fied in feet by the variable DISTPD). The input variables are ISLUDG, IFIXS,
and SDFEE and are illustrated below. ISLUDG takes values of 1, 2, 3, 4, or
5. Options 1 through 4 specify variations of pond disposal. Option 5 speci-
fies dewatering and landfill disposal. IFIXS takes values of 0 or 1.

fixation process which is described below. SDFEE is a user-specified fee in
$/ton Of dry waste that can be used to specify a fee for additional costs not
included in the model. It is normally used with ISLUDG values of 3 and 4 but
it can also be used with the other ISLUDG options. In all options that
involve dewatering, user-specified solids contents are used. These must be
within practical limits to attain accurate results. The use of ISLUDG = 5
normally requires either the use of IFIXS = 1 or one of the forced-oxidation
options because unoxidized sludge is not normally landfilled without fixation.
A summary of the basic options is shown below.
ISLUDG = 1 Onsite pond disposal of untreated waste.
ISLUDG = 2 Dewatering in a gravity thickener followed by onsite pond
disposal.
ISLUDG = 3 Dewatering in a gravity thickener with additional costs based on
SDFEE to cover fixation and/or disposal cost.
ISLUDG = 4 Dewatering in a gravity thickener and a rotary vacuum filter with
additional costs based on SDFEE to cover fixation and/or disposal
costs.
ISLUDG = 5 Dewatering in a gravity thickener and a rotary vacuum filter
followed by disposal in an onsite landfill.
ISLUDG = 5 Dewatering with a gravity thickener and a rotary vacuum filter,
and followed by fixation by blending the filter cake with an equal
IFIXS = 1 quantity of dry fly ash and 3-5% lime (both based on dry waste)
for disposal in an onsite landfill.
The base case printout in Appendix D is an example of the forced-
oxidation, landfill option (ISLUDG = 5, IFIXS = 0). Sample equipment lists
corresponding to the output for the other waste disposal options are shown in
Tables 14-16. Annual revenue requirements corresponding to fixation using the
model and landfill disposal (ISLUDG = 5, IFIXS = 1) are shown in Table 17.

Three variables, PSAMAX, PDEPTH, and PMXEXC are required inputs. The
PSAMAX variable specifies the maximum land area in acres available for the
pond, the PDEPTH variable specifies the final depth of waste in the filled
pond, and the PMXEXC variable specifies the maximum depth of topsoil and
subsoil (clay) that can be excavated and used for dike construction (excava-
tion and dike construction calculations are based on the assumption that the
excavated material compacts to 85% of the original volume). For a fixed depth
pond, PSAMAX should be zero, PDEPTH should be set to the desired depth, and
PMXEXC should be set to zero. For a pond based on minimum capital investment
costs but subject to area and excavation limits, PSAMAX should be set to the
maximum area in acres available for pond construction, PDEPTH should be set to
zero, and PMXEXC should be set to the maximum excavation depth allowed. The
pond based on minimum capital investment costs (with no area and excavation
limits) is essentially the same as the second option except that the values
specified for the area and excavation limits should be high enough not to
realistically limit the optimized values; for example, PSAMAX = 9999 and
PMXEXC = 25.
In all three options below, the pond is designed to minimize the sum of
construction cost and land cost.
Fixed depth pond
PSAMAX =0.0
PDEPTH = desired depth, feet
PMXEXC =0.0
Optimum pond cost, sub.iect to limits of area and excavation depth
PSAMAX = Maximum area available for disposal site, acres
PDEPTH =0.0
PMXEXC = Maximum allowable excavation depth, feet
Optimized capital investment, assuming unlimited area and excavation
depth
PSAMAX = Maximum area available for pond construction (maximum =
9999 acres)
PDEPTH = Maximum pond depth, feet
PMXEXC = Maximum excavation depth, feet
49
-------
When the restricted area pond design option is used and calculations
indicate that the total waste volume cannot be contained within the specified
area and excavation limits, an error message is issued and the case la
terminated. Example output showing the results of specifying a pond based on
minimum capital investment costs and the available area constant is shown in
Table 18.
The pond portion of the model can also be executed separately in an
interactive mode. Execution of the pond portion of the model in this manner
is discussed in Appendix F.

The design of the landfill used in the model is described in Appendix B.
Based on this design and the volume of waste to be disposed of, the transpor-
tation and landfill requirements are determined. The variable names used in
executing the landfill model are the same as those used in executing the pond
model, but are defined differently. In the landfill model, PDEPTH specifies
the uncompacted waste bulk density in Ib/ft3 (for transportation require-
ments) and PMXEXC specifies the compacted bulk density in Ib/ft3 (for land-
fill volume determination). If bulk density values are unknown, the model
will choose default values for FGD wastes as shown below. Example output
showing the results of specifying a landfill based on minimum capital invest-
ment costs with a synthetic liner is shown in Table 19. As with the pond
option, the liner is specified separately, as discussed below.

ILINER XLINA XLINB
The liner option allows a choice of an unlined, clay-lined, or synthetic-
lined disposal site. The input variables are ILINER, XLINA, and XLINB.
ILINER specifies the type of lining as illustrated below.
1 = Clay liner
2 = Synthetic liner
3 = No liner
For a clay lining (ILINER =1), XLINA specifies the depth of clay in
inches and XLINB specifies the clay lining installation cost (or the costs for
reworking the clay subsoil into a lining) in $/yd3. For a synthetic lining
(ILINER = 2), XLINA specifies the liner material cost in $/yd2 and XLINB
specifies the installation cost in $/yd2- For no liner (ILINER = 3), XLINA
and XLINB should be set to zero. Example output showing the results of
specifying a synthetic liner is shown in Table 20.

PCTADM UNDCAP PCTINS
The economic premises option (IECON) allows cost projections based on
either the current EPA-TVA economic premises adopted December 5, 1979 (and
expanded and amplified in March 1981), or the old premises that were used
before December 5, 1979. Appendix B contains a description of the current
premises. Four variables are used in conjunction with the economic premises
option. The meaning of these variables depends on which set of premises is
selected. If the current premises are specified (IECON =1), the PCTOVR
variable specifies the plant administrative overhead rate, applied as a
percent of conversion costs less utilities; the XLEVEL variable specifies the
levelizing factor to be applied to first-year operating and maintenance costs
to develop levelized operating and maintenance costs for the total life of the

plant; the CAPCHG variable specifies levelized annual capital charges applied
as a percent of total capital investment; and the PCTMKT variable specifies
marketing costs applied as a percent of byproduct credit (applies only to
processes with a salable byproduct). If the levelizing factor (XLEVEL) is set
to zero then a lifetime revenue sheet is printed showing annual revenue
requirements for each year of plant operation.
If the old premises are specified (IECON = 0), the PCTOVR variable speci-
fies the plant overhead rate applied as a percent of conversion costs less
utilities, the PCTADM variable specifies the administrative research and
service overhead rate applied as a percent of operating labor and supervision,
the UNDCAP variable specifies the annual capital charge basis for undepreci-
ated investment, and the PCTINS variable specifies the rate for insurance and
interim replacements applied as a percent of total capital investment.
Example output showing the results of specifying the current economic
premises (IECON = 1) and a nonzero levelizing factor (XLEVEL = 1.886) is shown
in the base case printout in Appendix D. The results of specifying a zero
levelizing factor are shown in the example revenue requirements in Table 21.
The results of specifying the old economic premises are shown in the example
revenue requirements in Table 22.

ITAXFR TXRAT FRRAT
The sales tax and freight option (ITAXFR) allows capital investment sales
tax and freight to be applied as a percentage of material costs. The sales
tax rate is specified with the variable TXRAT and the freight rate is speci-
fied with the FRRAT variable. When ITAXFR is 1, the specified rates are
applied to material costs and included in the capital investment summary
printout; when ITAXFR is zero1, sales tax and freight are excluded. Example
output showing the results of specifying sales tax and freight is shown on the
capital investment summary sheet in the base case printout in Appendix D. An
example investment summary sheet showing sales tax and freight excluded is
shown in Table 23.

The overtime option (IOTIME) allows an overtime labor rate (OTRATE) to
be applied to 7$ of total capital investment labor as defined in the premises
in Appendix B. When IOTIME is 1, the specified overtime rate is applied to J%
of all applicable labor costs; when IOTIME is zero, no overtime labor adjust-
ments are made. The added costs for overtime labor are not shown separately
in the model output, but a message is printed in the listing of the model
inputs to indicate if overtime is specified. An example printout with over-
time specified is shown in the base case printout in Appendix D.

INDPND PENGIN PARCH PFLDEX PFEES PCONT PSTART
The separate waste disposal indirect investment option (INDPND) allows
the indirect capital investment for the waste disposal site construction to be
calculated separately from the process indirect investment. The waste
disposal site construction is usually less complicated than the FGD process
construction and its indirect investment factors are usually lower. If INDPND
is zero, the waste disposal site construction indirect investment is calcu-
lated using the same factors (ENGIN, ARCTEC, FLDEXP, FEES, CONT, -and START)
specified in line 11. If INDPND =1, the factors specified by PENGIN
(engineering design and supervision), PARCH (architectural and engineering
contractor), PFLDEX (field expenses), PFEES (contractor fees), PCONT (contin-
gencies), and PSTART (allowance for startup and modifications) are used to
determine the waste disposal site indirect investment. All but PCONT and
PSTART are calculated as a percentage of waste disposal site direct invest-
ment. If the current economic premises are used (IECON = 1 in line 11), the
contingencies are a percentage of the sum of the waste disposal site direct
investments plus each of the four preceding waste disposal site indirect
investments. If the old economic premises are used (IECON = 0 in line 11),
the contingency is calculated as a percentage of the waste disposal site
direct investment only. The allowance for startup and modification is calcu-
lated as a percentage of the total fixed investment for waste disposal site
construction. An example of output showing the use of separate indirect
investment factors for landfill construction is shown in the example printout
in Appendix D. An example of the use of a common indirect investment factor
(INDPND = 0) for both the FGD process and the waste disposal site is shown in
Table 24.
If the user wishes to specify an oversized waste disposal site to cover
contingencies, or to specify an undersized site for applications in which the
initial site is not designed for the full life of the plant, an appropriate
PNDCAP factor, i.e., greater than or less than 1.0, can be specified.
The PNDCAP factor is also used automatically by the model to adjust the
landfill size when fixation (ISLUDG = 5, IFIXS = 1 in line 10) is specified to
account for the additional volume of the fly ash and lime. An example is
shown in Table 25.

IOPSCH ONCAP IYPROP
One of the most important variables affecting the economics of a power
plant and an associated FGD system is the operating profile (number of years
of operation and the hours of operation per year) over the life of the unit.
The effects of the year-by-year profile on capital investment and annual
revenue requirements are determined by the economic premises option (line 11,
IECON), the operating and maintenance cost levelizing factor (line 11, XLEVEL)
used with the current economic premises, and the waste disposal option
(line 10, ISLUDG). The model provides five options for specifying this
profile. The input variable for these options is IOPSCH. If IOPSCH = 1, the
model uses the operating schedule shown in Figure 2 which is based on a
profile developed by TVA for several past economic evaluations (15). If
IOPSCH = 2, the operating schedule is based on historical Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC) data (16) as shown in Figure 3. If IOPSCH = 3,
the user must input the operating profile as shown below. If IOPSCH = 4, a
levelized operating profile of 5,500 hours per year is used (see Appendix D).
If IOPSCH = 5, the user supplies a fractional capacity factor, UNCAP, and the
hours of operation each year are calculated by multiplying the fractional
capacity factor by 8,760 hours per year. The cumulative hours of operation
over the life of the plant are obtained by multiplying the resulting annual
hours of operation by the number of years of operation, IYROP, which is also
an input. A 30-year operating life is assumed for IOPSCH = 1, 2, or 4. The
operating life in years must be specified by the variable IYROP when using
IOPSCH options 3 and 5. When the operating profile is specified by the user
(IOPSCH = 3), the projected operating life in years cannot exceed 50. Begin-
ning on line 16, the total number of hour-per-year entries must be equal to
the value of IYROP. The number of entries per line must be equal to 10. Less
than 10 entries are allowed on the last line only, depending on the number of
years required. An example using 25 years is shown below.

-------
If levelized operating and maintenance costs under the current premises are
used, a levelizing factor (line 11, XLEVEL) that corresponds to the operating
profile should be used.
Example output resulting from the Figure 2 operating profile (IOPSCH = 1)
is shown in Table 26. Table 27 illustrates the results of the Figure 3 FERC
data operating profile (IOPSCH =s 2). Example output resulting from a user-
supplied operating profile (IOPSCH = 3) is shown in Table 28. The base case
printout in Appendix D shows the results of specifying a levelized operating
profile of 5,500 hours per year. Example output resulting from a user-
specified operating capacity factor in conjunction with a 26-year operating
profile is shown in Table 29.

USING THE MODEL
As previously discussed, a copy of the model can be made available for
independent user execution; or TVA, under an information-exchange agreement
with EPA, can make specific runs of the model based on user-supplied input
data. This section is provided for potential users who wish to obtain the
model for independent use.
The model was developed for, and is executed on, the TVA in-house IBM
370-compatible computer system. The current model consists of two FORTRAN
programs written in FORTRAN66 that are compiled using either the IBM G1 or H
extended compiler. The first program, which calculates investment costs, is
relatively large; it contains over 14,000 lines of source code. The second
program, which calculates revenue requirements, contains about 2,000 lines.
Core storage requirements for the first program are about 375,000 bytes;
the use of overlays can reduce this requirement to about 200,000 bytes. The
second program executes within 150,000 bytes of core storage with no overlays.
In addition to the core storage required for program execution, temporary
online storage (disk) is also required for intermediate files and the transfer
of data between the two programs. The only input data required for model
execution are the user input data; all other data for default assumptions and
option-related calculations are assigned the necessary values internally
within the program. Temporary online storage requirements depend on the
number of cases run but typically do not exceed 200,000 bytes.
The model is executed in both interactive and batch modes. The input
data can be provided in three ways, depending on the mode of execution. For
batch execution (typically remote batch), the input data variables are punched
on cards and inserted in a model execution run deck. The second method of
providing data applies to interactive model execution. Input is solicited at
the terminal during actual model execution and the user must respond with the
appropriate values. The third method is used for both interactive and batch
execution. A data file is created interactively (typically using ^i text
editor); all variable values (including the options selected) are examined and
corrected if necessary, then the model is executed (either interactively or a
batch run is submitted from the interactive terminal) and the input is
processed as a standard data file.
The third method of providing input data has been found to be preferable
in most cases. When separate but similar model runs are required, the data
file containing the input is copied to a second file, variables and options
are modified as necessary, and a second model run is submitted. This reduces
both input preparation time and the number of input data errors because only
the variables and options that differ from a previous run must be modified.
75
-------
The Job control language (JCL) required to execute the model in batch
mode is stored in a catalogued procedure file. An example procedure file is
shown in Table 30. The catalogued procedure uses a system utility program,
IEBGENER, which can be replaced if necessary by a user program to copy from
input card data to disk storage and from disk storage to an output print file.
The overall procedure consists of four steps to (1) copy the input data to a
temporary online storage file (disk), (2) copy the input data to an output
print file, (3) execute the first program of the model, and (4) execute the
second program. The programs are executed from load modules to avoid
recompiling each time they are executed.
The remaining JCL required to execute the model in batch mode is shown in
Table 31. If the input data have been prepared on cards, a card deck similar
to example 1 in Table 31 would be submitted with the data cards following the
//LOAD.DATA DD » ... card. In example 2, the catalogued procedure (Table 31)
is executed and the required input is read from a previously created data
file. The JCL examples shown in Tables 30 and 31 generally apply whether the
job is submitted interactively or with a card deck.
Table 32 shows two example interactive procedures for model execution.
Example 1 in Table 32 shows an example procedure for directly entering the
data during model execution. Example 2 shows a procedure for interactive
execution using a previously created data file.
The amount of computer time required for model execution is a function of
the number of cases of input data and the particular computer system. On the
TV A system (AMDAHL V8 with JES3), the average CPU time required per case is
about 0.5 second but some cases have exceeded 2 seconds.
The model is usually distributed on magnetic tape for independent usage.
A fairly wide range of tape format options is available but typically the tape
is unlabeled; the density is 1600 bpi; the block size is 4,000 characters (50
records, 80 characters per record); and the tape contains two files, one for
each program.

MODEL STRUCTURE
As described previously, the overall model consists of two FORTRAN
programs. The first program which calculates investment costs consists of a
main program and 101 subroutines. An alphabetical listing of the subroutines
in this program with a general description of their function is shown in
Table 33- The second program which calculates revenue requirements consists
of a main program and 10 subroutines. An alphabetical listing of the sub-
routines in this program with a general description of their function is shown
in Table 34. Since the subroutines are not executed in either alphabetical
order or the order in which they occur in the two programs, hierarchy charts
showing the sequence for calling the various subroutines during batch program
execution and identifying the main program and subroutines from which they are
called are shown in Tables 35 and 36.
Further documentation of the overall model is beyond the scope of this
manual.

DESIGN AND ECONOMIC PREMISES FOR EMISSION CONTROL EVALUATIONS
INTRODUCTION
These premises provide criteria for economic evaluations of emission
control and related processes for electric utility power plants fired with
pulverized coal. The design premises define representative coal and power
unit conditions and emission control design practices. The economic premises
are based on regulated utility economics; they prescribe procedures for
determining capital investments and annual revenue requirements. The premises
are directly applicable to economic evaluations of coal cleaning; flue gas
desulfurization (FGD), nitrogen oxides (NOX), and fly ash control; bottom
ash handling; and ponding or landfill disposal of nonhazardous wastes.
The economic evaluations are based on a conceptual design based on the
design premises and developed from engineering data such as flow diagrams,
material balances, and equipment costs. Depending on the degree of accuracy
specified, some costs are either scaled or developed from detailed design and
operating data.
A new 500-MW power unit is used as a base case. Seven coals, repre-
senting typical steam coals used in the United States, are defined. Normally
an eastern bituminous coal containing 3.5$ sulfur and 16$ ash (moisture-free
basis) is used as the base case coal. The other coals represent eastern
bituminous coals with different sulfur contents, western bituminous and
subbituminous coals, and lignite.
These premises, updated in late 1983, are based on 1985 costs for capital
investment and 1987 costs for annual revenue requirements. The cost basis and
other premise criteria are updated periodically; usually the entire premise
criteria are updated at one time rather than on a piecemeal basis to maintain
the comparability of evaluations made over a period of time. The projection
of new cost basis years using current economic factors is the major change
from the previous premises, which were used since April 1980. The other
changes are relatively minor revisions to the design premises: emission of
95% instead of 92$ of the sulfur in eastern bituminous coals, updated spray
dryer FGD designs, and a slightly modified landfill design.

DESIGN PREMISES
The design premises specify the coal properties; power unit conditions;
emission control requirements; design features of NOX, S02, and fly ash
control processes; and waste-handling and disposal methodology.
COAL PREMISES
The premise coals consist of four eastern bituminous coals containing
5.0$, 3-5$, 2.0$, and 0.7$ sulfur; a 0.7$ sulfur western bituminous coal; a
0.7$ sulfur western subbituminous coal; and a 0.9$ sulfur North Dakota
lignite. They are based on analyses of U.S. steam coals representative of the
types in current use (17,18). The analysis data for each of these coals are
summarized in Table B-1 and a fly ash analysis for each coal is shown in
Table B-2.

As- fired coal refers to the coal entering the coal-cleaning plant or
power plant. This coal is supplied in a 3-inch top size after large rocks and
trash have been removed from the run-of-mine coal. Broken coal is assumed to
have the particle size distributions represented by the Bennett form of the
Rosin and Rammler equation,
R =
which can be plotted on special graph paper devised by the U.S. Bureau of
Mines (BOM) (19) as shown in Figure B-1 . In the equation,
x = particle diameter or width of screen aperture in millimeters. It is
the abscissa in Figure B-1 .
x = a size constant, in millimeters, that is specific to each distribu-
tion line of particle size. In Figure B-1, it is the value of x when
R = 36.79$; in turn R = 36.79$ when x = x in the Rosin and Rammler
equation.
n = a size distribution constant. In Figure B-1, it is the arithmetical
slope of a distribution line. Parallel distribution lines have the
same value of n.
e = the base of the natural logarithm.
R = the weight percentage of coal retained on a screen whose aperture is
x. R expresses cumulative oversize and is the ordlnate in Figure
B-1.
For all distribution lines in Figure B-1, the value of n is 0.8840.
Values of x for selected size distributions are given below.

POWER PLANT
The power plant site is assumed to be in the north-central region
(Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Kentucky, and Wisconsin). The location
represents an area in which coal-fired power plants burning coals of diverse
type and source are situated (20). The design is based on standard design
practices (21,22) and current trends in utility boiler construction (23). The
base case power unit is a new, single 500-MW, balanced-draft, dry-bottom
boiler fired with pulverized coal. The steam pressure is 2,100 psi. The
superheat and reheat temperatures are 1,000°F.
Power unit size case variations consist of similar 200-MW and 1,000-MW
units. For new units, the systems being evaluated are assumed to be installed
during construction of the power plant. New units are assumed to have a 30-
year life and to operate at full load for 5,500 hours/yr. For case varia-
tions, identical existing units with 20 years of remaining life at 5,500
hours/yr of full-load operation are used. The heat rates are shown in
Table B-3. They are based on coal type, unit size, and unit age. To provide
for equitable comparisons, the power units are not derated for energy consump-
tion by the systems evaluated. Instead, the energy requirements are charged
as independently purchased commodities. Normally, cost estimates are based on
a single power unit independent of other units at the site. In cases in which
a plant-wide process or system is evaluated, a plant capacity of 1,000 MW is
normally used.

FLDE GAS COMPOSITIONS
Flue gas compositions are based on combustion of pulverized coal assuming
a total air rate equivalent to 139$ of the stoichiometric requirement (defined
as air for combustion of carbon, hydrogen, and sulfur). This includes 20$
excess air to the boiler and 19$ additional air leakage to the flue gas in the
air heater. It is assumed that 80$ of the ash present in all coals is emitted
B-9
-------
as fly ash. Sulfur emitted is dependent on the coal type; 95% of the sulfur
in all eastern coals and 85$ of the sulfur in all western coals and lignite
are emitted as gaseous sulfur oxides (SOX). The remaining sulfur is removed
in the bottom ash and fly ash. No loss of sulfur in the pulverizers is
assumed. Three percent of the sulfur emitted as SOX is SQ^ and the
remainder is 862.
A flow diagram around the boiler is shown in Figure B-2 and detailed
boiler material balances and flue gas composition summaries for stream 8, for
each premise coal, are shown in Tables B-4 through B-17. The streams shown in
the material balances have excess significant digits for cases in which higher
accuracy is needed. These numbers are not to be published without rounding to
four significant digits, no more - no less.
ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS
Emissions from new coal-fired utility plants are regulated by the new
source performance standards (NSPS), which are promulgated by the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under authority of the Clean Air Act as
amended in 1970 and 1977 (2*0. This section requires EPA to set Federal emis-
sion limitations that reflect the degree of control that can be achieved by
using the best available control technology (BACT). In 1971> EPA issued NSPS
to limit emissions of S02, NOx, and particulate matter from utility power
plants (25). The 1971 NSPS specify a maximum emission based on heat input of
0.10 Ib/MBtu for particulate matter and 1.2 Ib/MBtu for S02. They apply to
power units, for which construction began between August 1971 and September
1978. In 1979, EPA revised the NSPS (26) as shown in Table B-18. The con-
trolled outlet S02 emission and S02 removal efficiencies for the premise
coals are shown in Figure B-3 and tabulated in Table B-19.

EMISSION CONTROL PROCESS DESIGN
With the exception of some standard designs and frequently used reference
processes—most notably the limestone FGD process—detailed design features

that will be applicable to all evaluations cannot be specified. The diversi-
ties of processes and evaluation objectives and continuing technological
advances make such an approach impractical. Most designs must be based on a
thorough assessment of the objectives of the study, its relationship to past
and possible future studies, and on aspects that enhance the scope and detail
of the evaluation.

The standardized design features and procedures outlined in the following
sections are followed to the maximum extent compatible with the objectives of
the evaluation since this facilitates more detailed evaluations of significant
design and operating features and more meaningful identification of cost
elements. In all cases, the design and costing procedures are based on
division of costs into definable functional areas so that the role of
particular functions in determining costs can be identified.
Generic designs based on current practices and technology are usually
preferable for evaluating technologies in which several vendors offer proprie-
tary processes (limestone FGD, spray dryer FGD, and fabric filter baghouses
are examples of the early 1980s). This approach allows a general assessment
of the technology and of design trends and practices, less effected by the
specific concepts and preferences of individual vendors.
Evaluations of proprietary designs depend on the nature and objectives of
the evaluation. Standard design features are used as much as is consistent
with the objectives of the evaluation. The vendor's specifications and sug-
gestions are used for all features that represent and define the process while
B-28
-------
preferences that have no effect on the function of the process are—to dif-
ferent degrees, depending on the nature of the features and the objectives of
the evaluation—avoided if they reduce the comparability of the process
economics.
Particulate Matter
Fly ash and bottom ash collection, handling, and disposal or utilization
are included in the evaluation of other emission control processes when the
inclusion is pertinent to the evaluation or is expected to be in related
future evaluations. (However, these costs are not included in the FGD costs
from the Shawnee FGD computer model.) The standard bottom ash system consists
of conventional vee-bottom water-filled hoppers with clinker grinders, a
hydraulic conveying system with a combined ejector pump and centrifugal pump
system, and a dewatering system one-fourth mile from the boiler.
Normal fly ash control consists of rigid-frame cold-side (after the air
heater) electrostatic precipitators (ESPs) for coals with 2% or more sulfur
and rigid-frame hot-side ESPs for coals with less than 2% sulfur. Fabric
filter baghouses may be used in place of ESPs, particularly hot-side ESPs in
low-sulfur coal cases, if this favors the evaluation. Baghouses are used with
spray dryer FGD for particulate collection. Normally, economizer and air
heater (and reactor for NOg control, if used) and ash hoppers are included
in fly ash costs.
Vacuum conveying systems are used for conveying distances less than 300
feet. Vacuum-pressure systems are used when longer conveying distances are
necessary. In this case, the vacuum system is used to convey the solids from
the collection hoppers to one or more collection points, from which they are
conveyed to storage silos in the pressure system. Normally, the vacuum-
pressure system is used when more than 24 collection hoppers are involved.
The design of the waste conveying system is based on standard industry
practices.
The bottom ash dewatering bins, fly ash silos, and spray dryer waste
silos are sized for a 64-hour capacity to allow a 5-day, 2-shift disposal
operation. The bins and silos are elevated for direct discharge to trucks.
Silos for eastern coal fly ash are provided with moisturizer-mixers to add
water to the ash as it is discharged.
Flue Gas Desulfurization
The FGD system consists of two or more trains of absorbers supplied by a
common inlet plenum into which the flue gas from the power unit duct system
discharges. The plenum allows optimization of the FGD system design by making
it independent of the power plant duct configuration. The plenum and all
equipment between it and the stack plenum are included in the FGD costs. This
is based on the premise that in the absence of the FGD system, the flue gas
discharged to the inlet plenum would be discharged directly to the stack
plenum.
B-29
-------
Unless process requirements dictate otherwise, the absorber trains have a
maximum size of 125 MW or 513fOOO sft3/min (60°F), whichever is larger.
All systems with capacities of 200 MW or more, or processing 340,000 aft3/
min of flue gas, have two or more absorber trains. Each train is assumed to
have an annual availability of 85$. Spare trains are included to provide an
excess capacity of at least 25$. (This allows the use of an emergency bypass,
as discussed below.) All trains, including the spares, are identical although
this results in a spare capacity over 25$ in some cases: a 200-MW system
would have three 100-MW trains, for example. The 500-MW systems with full
scrubbing have four operating trains and one spare train and the 1,000-MW
systems have eight operating and two spare trains.
All wet-scrubbing systems that do not include prescrubbers such as
Venturis are equipped with presaturators to cool the flue gas to the satura-
tion temperature (approximately 127°F). Usually these are modified sections
of inlet duct equipped with spray headers to spray the flue gas with absorbent
liquid. The absorbers are also equipped with mist eliminators and reheaters
as required to produce a stack temperature of 175°F. Booster fans are
provided to compensate for the pressure drop in the system. Normally, these
are induced draft (ID) fans in each train downstream from the reheater.
Emergency Bypass—
Because the 1979 NSPS allow emergency bypass around the FGD system under
some conditions if spare scrubbing capacity is provided, spare scrubbing
trains and bypass of 50$ of the gas that would normally be scrubbed are
included. An emergency bypass of 50$ of the scrubbed gas is assumed to be an
economic balance between the higher cost of providing additional bypass and
the small likelihood of multiple scrubbing train failures, which would make
higher bypass rates necessary. The bypass is installed as two identical ducts
from each end of the inlet plenum to the stack plenum downstream from the
scrubbing trains. Particulate collection equipment is not bypassed.
Partial Scrubbing—
In some cases, depending on the sulfur content of the coal and SC>2
removal requirements, scrubbing a portion of the flue gas at a high removal
efficiency and combining it with the remaining flue gas may be more economical
than scrubbing all of the flue gas at a lower removal efficiency. In such
cases, the bypassed gas duct requirements and the emergency bypass capability
are combined in the same duct. The ducts are sized to handle both the flue
gas normally bypassed and emergency bypass of 50$ of the flue gas scrubbed.
Depending on sulfur content of the coal, for the 500-MW power unit, partial
scrubbing could involve scrubbing as little as 375 MW of flue gas. Three
operating scrubbing trains and one spare scrubbing train are provided for this
case.
Ductwork—
Square ductwork with 2-inch insulation (in standard cases) is used for
the inlet plenum and absorber trains. To prevent ash settling, a gas velocity
of 50 ft/sec is used for the inlet plenum, all ductwork, and the emergency
bypass. A gas velocity of 25 ft/sec is used for the reheater section. Duct
B-30
-------
material is usually 3/16-inch Cor-Ten steel when the gas temperature is higher
than 150°F and 3/16-inch stainless steel when the gas temperature is lower
than 150°F.
Removal Efficiencies—
It is assumed that 50% of the SOo, 95$ of the HC1, none of the NOX,
and 50$ of the remaining fly ash in the flue gas are removed in the FGD
system. For systems requiring a presaturator or humidifier, it is assumed
that 5$ of the S02 is removed in the presaturator and that the remaining
SC>2 removal takes place in the FGD absorber.
Mist Eliminator—
The mist eliminator is a fiberglass-chevron-baffle type. The mist
eliminator reduces entrained moisture to a maximum level of 0.1$ (by weight)
of the flue gas. This maximum level is used for calculation of the amount of
flue gas reheat required.
Flue Gas Reheat—
A reheater consisting of a steam-heated tube bank is provided in each
train to provide a stack temperature of 175°F. This is considered necessary
to evaporate corrosive liquid not removed by the mist eliminator and to
provide adequate plume buoyancy. The size of the reheater is determined by
the temperature of the scrubbed flue gas (which is assumed to be 125°F for
wet-scrubbing systems), the quantity of flue gas bypassed, and the heat of
compression through the ID booster fans—which is assumed to be equivalent to
an adiabatic compression equal to the pressure drop in the FGD system.
Necessary Information for calculation of the steam requirements and reheater
surface area is shown in Table B-20 and a sample calculation is shown in
Table B-21.
For full-scrubbing processes, the reheater tubes are Inconel 625 for
corrosion resistance below 150°F and the remainder are Cor-Ten steel. In
cases in which the scrubbed flue gas is not heated to 175°F (as in the case
of partial bypass), the quantity of Inconel tubes remains the same and the
quantity of Cor-Ten tubes is reduced.
Piping-
Carbon steel piping is used for water and other noncorrosive and non-
abrasive liquids. Stainless steel is used for slurry and other corrosive or
abrasive liquid lines 3 inches in diameter or less; neoprene-lined carbon
steel is used for larger lines carrying these liquids. For slurry lines, plug
valves are used for lines up to 3 inches in diameter; eccentric plug valves
are used for 3- to 20-inch lines; and knife gate valves are used for lines
larger than 20 inches in diameter. Pneumatic actuators are provided for
valves 12 inches in diameter or larger.
Buildings--
Metal buildings are provided when it is necessary to provide weather
protection. The buildings have 6-inch concrete floors, insulation, electrical
heating, overhead doors, and other features required for their function.
Normally, buildings are provided for feed preparation, waste dewatering,

Spare Equipment—
Spare equipment is provided in accordance with general practice. For
most processes, the following spares are provided:
• A spare train of crushing and grinding equipment
• Slakers
• Waste filters
• Pumps
• A spare scrubbing train or trains
B-33
-------
NOx Control
Reduction of NOX emissions to meet the 1979 NSPS is assumed to be met
by modifications to the boiler combustion system. Evaluations of NOX
control processes are normally based on an 80$ reduction of these emissions.
With the exception of selective catalytic reduction (SCR) processes,
NOX control processes are usually based on proprietary designs. These vary
considerably, from various forms of combustion modification and furnace injec-
tion to—conceivably—wet scrubbing. The designs in these cases are dealt
with on an individual basis, usually following the vendor's specification.
For processes that control both NOX and SC-2, "the comparative processes are
the standard limestone FGD process and a generic SCR process.
A generic SCR process design is based on the designs of U.S. vendors of
the process. For the base case conditions, parallel vertical reactors up to
250 MW in size (two reactors for the 500-MW base case) are used. Flue gas is
ducted from the outlet of the boiler economizer to the reactors and from the
reactors to the boiler air heater. The air heater is modified to accommodate
the buildup of ammonia salts and the incremental costs are included in the
NOX control costs. An economizer bypass to maintain the flue gas tempera-
ture during low-load operation and an emergency bypass for the reactors are
also included. No spare reactor trains are provided. The assumed catalyst
life is equivalent to the catalyst life generated by process vendors and the
catalyst volume is based on maintenance of the design NOX reduction over the
catalyst life. Boiler operation is assumed to be unaffected by the process
(catalyst changes and other maintenance occur during boiler outages).
WASTE PROCESSING AND DISPOSAL
For processes producing a waste, either landfill or pond disposal is
provided. Normally, an onsite disposal facility one mile from the process
facility is used. The size of the disposal facility is based on the lifetime
volume of waste. Both the landfill and pond designs and costs are determined
using the landfill and pond models in the Shawnee computer model.
Normally, landfill disposal is used for ash and insoluble FGD waste.
Ponds are used for wastes such as coal-cleaning fines that are not normally
dewatered. Ponds, which serve as solid impoundments, are also used for
soluble wastes such as sodium-based FGD waste.
Waste storage facilities are normally based on truck transport and land-
fill disposal on a 2-shift, 5-day-week schedule. A 64-hour silo and stockpile
storage capacity is provided to allow the landfill operating schedule. For
pond disposal—which may be used in special studies or for waste that is
normally ponded—an 8-hour storage tank is provided. The waste is pumped
directly to the pond and the supernate is returned for reuse.
B-34
-------
Waste Properties
The densities upon which equipment sizes and storage volumes are based
are shown in Table B-22. Settled and compacted moisture contents and bulk
densities are also shown for use in disposal site designs, which are discussed
below. These are used in conceptual design evaluations in which uniform
representative values are more useful than specific values or in which spe-
cific data are unavailable. The values in Table B-22 are based on published
data and are representative of the rather large range over which the moisture
contents and bulk densities of most wastes vary, depending on the conditions
under which they were produced. In evaluations based on specific wastes,
measured values or more specific estimates should be used.

FGD Waste Processing and Handling
High-sulfite slurry (70$ CaS03-1/2H20 and 30$ CaSOij'2H20) is
normally dewatered and mixed with dry fly ash and lime (100$ fly ash and 3.5$
lime, both based on the dry weight of FGD solids) for landfill disposal. The
slurry from the absorbers is first dewatered to 30$ solids in a thickener,
then filtered to 55$ solids in rotary vacuum filters. The filter cake is
mixed with the fly ash and lime in .a pug mill and conveyed to a radial-arm
stacker that stacks it in a 64-hour capacity stockpile for removal to a
landfill.
Gypsum waste (95$ CaSO^-I^O or more) is thickened to 30$ solids and
filtered to 85$ solids in rotary vacuum filters. The filter cake is stacked
in a 64-hour capacity stockpile by a radial-arm stacker from which it is
removed to a landfill.
B-35
-------
Waste Transportation
Trucks are used for transportation of solid wastes. Bottom ash and fly
ash are discharged directly from the elevated dewatering bins and silos into
the trucks. A moisturizer-mixer mounted on the storage silo is used to add
water to fly ash from eastern bituminous coal (the quantity of water is based
on the optimum compaction moisture) to control dusting. Other fly ash and
spray dryer FGD waste, which is likely to have cementitious properties, is
moisturized with similar truck-mounted moisturizers at the disposal site.
Wastes in slurry form are sluiced to the disposal site and the supernate
is returned for reuse. If the slurry is abrasive (ash and coal-cleaning
waste), an abrasion-resistant ash-sluicing pipe is used. Equipment for
control of the return water pH and scaling potential is included in all wet
sluicing systems.
Disposal Site
Both the pond and landfill design and costs are determined using the
Shawnee flue gas desulfurization computer model, which allows numerous design
variations. The standard conditions are described below. The disposal site
is normally situated one mile from the process facility. Sufficient land is
provided for disposal during the remaining life of the facility. The disposal
site is assumed to be an area of low relief with sufficient soil for dike
construction or landfill requirements.
Pond—
Disposal ponds are square, earthen-diked enclosures with a medium
diverter dike. Dikes are constructed from material removed from the impound-
ment area as shown in Figure B-4. The entire impoundment area is lined with
12 inches of clay (assumed available onsite). Pond size and depth are
normally adjusted to minimize the sum of land and construction costs. Pond
costs include a 6-foot security fence around the perimeter dike, security
lighting, a topsoil storage area, and one upstream and three downstream
groundwater monitoring wells.
Landfill—
The landfill, one mile from the fixation area, has a square configuration
with a 20-foot rise and a 6-degree cap, as shown in Figure B-5. After topsoil
removal, the landfill area is lined with 12 inches of clay (assumed available

ECONOMIC PREMISES
Schedule and Cost Factors
The construction schedule used as a cost basis is shown in Figure B-6. A
3-year construction period, from early 1984 to late 1986, is used. Mid-1985
costs are used for capital investment. Mid-198? costs are used for annual
revenue requirements. These costs represent the midpoint of construction
expenditures and the midpoint of the first year of operation. Costs are
projected from Chemical Engineering cost indexes (27), as shown in
Table B-23. Frequently used costs are shown in Table B-24.
Capital Cost Estimates
Four grades of capital cost estimates are prepared depending upon the
intended use and the amount of information available. The grades, in
increasing order of accuracy, are (1) order of magnitude, (2) study, (3)
preliminary, and (4) definitive. The two grades normally used are the study
and preliminary grades. The purpose, information required, and predicted
accuracy are listed in Table B-25.
A typical capital investment sheet is shown in Table B-26. The capital
investment sheet is divided into three major sections: direct investment,
indirect investment, and other capital investment.
Direct Investment—
Direct investment consists of total process capital; services, utilities,
and miscellaneous; and waste disposal investment. Total process capital is
determined from the equipment list. Using standard estimating techniques
(28,29,30) and the Chemical Engineering cost indexes and projections shown
in Table B-23, the equipment cost and installation costs of each area are
estimated. The installation costs include charges for all piping, founda-
tions, excavations, structural steel, electrical equipment, instruments,
ductwork (all ductwork is included in the gas-handling area), paint, build-
ings, taxes, freight, and a premium for 1% overtime construction labor as
shown in Figure B-7. The total process area costs are summed on the area
summary sheet shown in Figure B-8 to give the total process capital.
Service facilities such as maintenance shops, stores, communications,
security, offices, and road and railroad facilities are estimated or allocated
on the basis of process requirements. Included in the utilities investment
are necessary electrical substations, conduit, steam, process water, fire and
service water, instrument air, chilled water, inert gas, and compressed air
distribution facilities. Services, utilities, and miscellaneous are in the
range of 4$ to 8% of the total process capital. For most cases, 6$ is to be
used, higher for processes and lower for waste disposal facilities. The base
case limestone-scrubbing process is charged 6% for services, utilities, and
miscellaneous.
All equipment and direct construction costs associated with waste
disposal are included in waste disposal costs. For ponds, this includes pond

construction costs from the computer pond model. For landfills, mobile equip-
ment and construction costs are included. All mobile equipment involved in
loading and transporting the waste from the in-process storage area, as well
as working the landfill, is included in solids disposal equipment. The land-
fill construction cost, as calculated from the landfill computer model, is
listed separately from the solids disposal equipment. The sum of total
process capital; services, utilities, and miscellaneous; and the waste
disposal cost is the total direct investment.
Indirect Investment—
Indirect capital investment covers fees for engineering design and super-
vision, architect and engineering contractor, construction expense, contractor
fees, and contingency. Listed in Table B-27 are the ranges to be used to
calculate the process and waste disposal indirect investments. The base per-
centages are normally used. The low and high ranges are used if the process
being studied is either much more complex than the typical system (the higher
percentage factors are used) or much less complex (the lower percentage
factors are used). The limestone- and lime-scrubbing processes use the low
percentages for a 1,000-MW unit, base percentages for a 500-MW unit, and the
high percentages for a 200-MW unit. Contingency is included to compensate for
unforeseen expenses. The contingency varies depending on the process and the
waste disposal method, as shown in Table B-28. The limestone- and lime-
scrubbing processes are assessed a contingency of 10$ for the process and 20$
for the landfill.
Other Capital Investment—
The allowance for startup and modifications is applied as a percentage of
the total fixed investment. Since the startup and modification costs for the
waste disposal area are assumed to be negligible, this allowance is calculated
as a percentage of the total process fixed investment only. The values used
are shown in Table B-29. The limestone- and lime-scrubbing processes are
assessed at a rate of 8$ for this charge.
The cost of borrowed funds (interest) during construction is 15.6$ of the
total fixed investment (both process and waste disposal). This factor is
based on an assumed 3-year construction schedule and is calculated with a 10$
weighted cost of capital with 25$ of the construction expenditures in the
first year, 50$ in the second year, and 25$ in the third year of the project
construction schedule. Expenditures in a given year are assumed uniform over
that year. Startup costs are assumed to occur late enough in the project
schedule that there are no charges for the use of money to pay startup costs.
Table B-30 illustrates the calculation of the interest during construction for
3- through 6-year construction schedules.
Most processes will include a one-time royalty charge using either an
actual royalty obtained from the vendor or 1$ of the total process capital
involved. Processes exempt from royalties due to their generic design are
limestone and lime processes, including those with forced oxidation or adipic
acid or both, and the magnesia process.

-------
Land—
All land associated with the process and waste disposal area is charged
to the process. The cost of land is $6,000 per acre.
Working Capital—
Working capital is the total amount of money invested in raw materials,
supplies, finished products, accounts receivable, and money on deposit for
payment of operating expenses. For these premises, working capital is defined
as the equivalent cost of 1 month's raw material cost, 1.5 months' conversion
cost, *1.5 months' plant and administrative overhead costs (all of the above
are found on the annual revenue requirements sheet), and 3% of the total
direct capital investment (from the capital investment sheet). One month is
defined as 1/12 of annual costs. The equation is shown below:
Working capital = 1/12 (total raw materials cost) +
(1.5) (1/12) (total conversion cost) +
(1.5) (1/12) (plant and administrative overhead) +
0.03 (total direct investment)
Battery Limits—
Since battery limits costs typically include most of the associated
indirect investments, battery limits costs have their own indirect investment
factors as shown below:
% of battery
limits cost
Engineering design and supervision 6
Architect and engineering contractor 1
Construction expense 14
Contractor fees 0
Contingency 10
Retrofit Factor—
For existing plant cases, a retrofit factor is assigned to cover the
additional investment required. Each of the area investments (i.e., material
handling, etc.) is multiplied by the retrofit factor. Retrofit factors vary
widely depending on the process and the site involved (31). For emission
control processes which are coupled to the boiler, the following retrofit
factors are used:
B-52
-------
Process
Retrofit
factor
Reason
Limestone scrubbing
Spray dryer
NOx FGT (SCR)
1.3 These scrubbing systems are add-on in that
they require no boiler modifications. This
factor for the retrofit cases is due to the
need to fit the equipment into available
space.
1.5 These scrubbing systems require relatively
minor modifications to the boiler and duct-
work. This factor also includes the
expense of fitting the equipment into the
available space.
1.7 These control systems require extensive
modifications to the boiler economizers and
air heaters and the associated ductwork.
This factor also includes the expense of
locating the equipment in the available
space.
It is assumed that most FGD systems will be of the add-on type and, therefore,
use the 1.3 retrofit factor.
Annual Revenue Requirements
Annual revenue requirements consist of various direct and indirect
operating and maintenance costs and capital charges. Annual revenue require-
ments normally vary from year to year as operating and maintenance costs
change and capital charges decline. Thus, no single year is necessarily
representative of the lifetime costs, nor can single-year undistorted compari-
sons be made among processes with different ratios of operating costs to
capital charges. In addition, it is necessary to take into account the effect
of time on the value of money (for inflation, the future earning power of
money spent, and other factors).
Frequently these factors are accounted for by levelizing (32). Leveliza-
tion converts all the varying annual revenue requirements to a constant annual
value, such that the sum of the present worths of the levelized annual revenue
requirements equals the sum of the present worths of the actual annual revenue
requirements. The levelized value is calculated by multiplying the revenue
requirements for each year by the appropriate present worth factor and summing
the present worth values. Then the single present worth value is converted to
equal annual values by multiplying the result by the capital recovery factor.
In these premises, the operating and maintenance costs are levelized by
multiplying the first-year operating and maintenance cost by a levelizing
factor. The levelized capital charges are determined by levelizing the per-
centage of capital investment applied yearly as capital charges. The
B-53
-------
levelizing factor includes a discount factor reflecting the time value of
money and an inflation factor reflecting the effects of inflation during the
operating life of the system. The discount rate used is 10? and the inflation
rate used is 6%. The levelizing factor produced varies with the remaining
life of the system. Calculation of the levelizing factor for operating and
maintenance costs and of levelized capital charges is discussed below.
A typical annual revenue requirement tabulation is shown in Table B-31.
Direct costs consist of raw material and conversion costs. These, combined
with overheads, are the operating and maintenance costs. For processes that
produce a salable byproduct, byproduct sales are applied as a credit to the
operating and maintenance costs. Levelized capital charges are calculated as
a percentage of the capital investment and added to the operating and mainte-
nance costs to provide the first-year annual revenue requirements. The
levelized annual revenue requirements are determined by multiplying the
operating and maintenance costs by the levelizing factor and adding the
product to the same levelized capital charges used in the first-year annual
revenue requirements.
Operating and Maintenance Costs—
Frequently used raw material costs and standard conversion costs are
shown previously in Table B-24. Other costs are obtained from vendors or
published information. These costs are converted to 1987 costs using the cost
indexes in Table B-23 or industry projections.
Raw materials—Consumables required for their chemical or physical
properties, other than fuel for the production of heat, are classified as raw
materials. Raw material costs are determined as necessary from vendor quota-
tions or published sources and escalated to 198? costs. All costs are
delivered costs.
Operating labor and supervision—Unit labor costs for 198? were shown
in Table B-24. The allocation of operating labor and supervision depends on
the process complexity, number of process areas, labor intensity of the
process, and operating experience.
Utilities—Services used, such as steam, electricity, process water,
fuel oil, and heat credits, are charged under the utilities heading. Unit
1987 costs are shown in Table B-24. Costs for steam and electricity are based
on the assumption that the required energy is purchased from another source.
This simplifying assumption eliminates the need to derate the utility plant.
Process water requirements are defined as any water used by the process being
evaluated and are usually determined by the material balance. Steam require-
ments are for flue gas reheat and process requirements. Electrical power
requirements are determined from the installed horsepower of operating
electrical equipment (excluding the horsepower of spare equipment). Each
motor in operation is assumed to be operating at rated capacity, although this
results in higher power consumptions than would actually occur- Electrical
requirements are obtained from the equipment list, where the motor horsepower
is identified, plus an additional amount for functions such as lighting. A
sample calculation is shown in Table B-32.

TABLE B-32. SAMPLE ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENT CALCULATION
Electricity requirements are determined by summing the horsepower of all
operating electrical equipment and multiplying by a factor of 0.7457 kW/hp.
It is assumed that the instantaneous load factor and the power load factor
are equal and thus cancel. Additional electricity is added for functions
such as lighting. For the limestone and lime processes, 100 kW is added.
For other processes, more or less electricity, depending on the process
type, size, and complexity, may be necessary.

Maintenance—Process maintenance costs are 3% to 10$ of the total
direct process capital investment depending on process complexity, process
equipment, materials handled, process areas, and unit size. The percentages
shown in Table B-33 are used under most circumstances. For specific FGD
processes, the maintenance percentages shown in Table B-34 are used. For
example, a 500-MW limestone-scrubbing process normally has a maintenance
factor of 8$.
Waste disposal maintenance costs are estimated from the appropriate model
and are typically 3% of the waste disposal site construction costs. Mainte-
nance costs for waste disposal are not shown separately. If no other informa-
tion is available, the maintenance material-to-labor ratio can be assumed to
be 60:40.

Analysis—Analysis costs are based on process complexity and are listed
as a single entry.
Plant and Administrative Overheads—Plant and administrative overheads
include plant services such as safety, cafeteria, and medical facilities;
plant protection and personnel; general engineering (excluding maintenance),
interplant communications and transportation; and the expenses connected with
management activities. Plant and administrative overheads for the FGD process
are 60$ of the total conversion costs less utilities.
Marketing Overhead—This is calculated as 10$ of byproduct sales
income.
B-57
-------
Byproduct Credit—-Total revenue from the sale of byproducts is applied
as a credit to processes in which a byproduct is salable.
Capital Charges—
Capital charges are those costs incurred by construction of the facility
that must be recovered during its life. They consist of returns on equity and
debt (discount rate), depreciation, income taxes, and other costs such as
insurance and local taxes. In keeping with common practice for investor-owned
utilities, the weighted cost of capital is used as the discount rate. Depre-
ciation is stated as a sinking fund factor to simplify calculations. An
allowance for interim replacement is included to compensate for possible early
retirement of the facility. Credits are also included for tax preference
allowances. The capital charges are shown in Table B-35. In keeping with
standard practice, book, tax, and economic lives are used in the following
calculations. In these premises, however, all three are assumed to be equal.

a. Rounded to three significant figures.
The capital structure is assumed to be 35$ common stock, 15% preferred
stock, and 50? long-term debt. The cost of capital is assumed to be 11.4$ for
common stock, 10.0$ for preferred stock, and 9.0$ for long-term debt. The
weighted cost of capital (WCC) is 10.0$. The discount rate (r) is equal to
the weighted cost of capital.
Other economic factors used in financial calculations are a 10$ invest-
ment tax credit rate, 50$ State plus Federal income taxes, 2.5$ property tax
and insurance, and an annual inflation rate of 6$. Salvage value is assumed
to be less than 10$ and equal to removal cost.
B-58
-------
Weighted cost of capital is calculated as follows:
WCC = (fraction long-term debt) (long-term debt cost, %) +
(fraction preferred stock) (preferred stock cost, %) +
(fraction common stock) (common stock cost, %}
The sinking fund factor method of depreciation is used since it is
equivalent to straight-line depreciation levelized for the economic life of
the facility using the weighted cost of capital. The use of the sinking fund
factor does not suggest that regulated utilities commonly use sinking fund
depreciation. All factors and rates are expressed as decimals. The equation
is:
SFF = (WCC)/((1 + WCC)Ne -1)
where: SFF = sinking fund factor
WCC = weighted cost of capital
Ne = economic life in years
An annual interim replacement (retirement dispersion) allowance of 0.56?
for new plants and 0.67$ for existing plants is also included as an adjustment
to the depreciation account to ensure that the initial investment will be
recovered within the actual rather than the forecasted life of the facility.
Since power plant retirements occur at different ages, an average service life
is estimated. The type S-1 Iowa State (33) retirement dispersion pattern is
used. The S-1 pattern is symmetrical with respect to the average life axis
and the retirements are represented to occur at a low rate over many years.
The interim replacement allowance covers replacement of individual items of
equipment with typical lifespans less than the life of the power plant.
Repair of other equipment is covered by the maintenance charge.
Tax preference allowances are incentives designed to encourage investment
as a stimulus to the overall economy. The basic accounting method used is the
flow-through method which passes the tax advantage to revenue requirements as
soon as they occur.
Using the sum of the years digits method, which allocates costs early in
the life of the facility, the accelerated tax depreciation (ATD) is calculated
as follows:
ATD = (2)(CRFe)(Nt- (1/CHFt))/(Nt)(Nt + 1)(WCC)
where: CRFe = capital recovery factor (WCC + SFF) for the economic life
CRFt = capital recovery factor (WCC + SFF) for the tax life
Nt = tax life in years
B-59
-------
Levelized accelerated tax depreciation is calculated as follows:
LATD = (AID - SLD)(ITR)/(1 - ITR)
where: SLD = straight-line depreciation
= 1/Nb
Nb = book life in years
ITR = income tax rate
The levelized investment tax credit is calculated as follows:
LITC = (CRFe)(investment tax credit rate)/(1 + WCC)(1 - ITR)
The levelized income tax is calculated as follows:
LIT = (CRFb + AIR - SLD)(1 - ((debt ratio x debt cost)/WCC))
(ITR)/(1 - ITR)
where: LIT = levelized income tax
CRFb = capital recovery factor (WCC + SFF) for the book life
AIR = annual interim replacement
The capital charges are applied as a percentage of the total capital
investment, including land and working capital. Although land and most of
working capital cannot be depreciated and are not subject to investment tax
credit, their inclusion has an insignificant effect on capital charges.
Levelized Operating and Maintenance Costs—
Assuming a constant inflation rate, the levelized operating and mainte-
nance costs are determined by multiplying the first-year operating and mainte-
nance costs by an appropriate levelizing factor, Lf. The levelizing factor
is calculated as follows:
Lf = CRFe (K + K2 + K3 + +
= CRFe (K(1 - KN))/(1 _ K)
where: CRFe = capital recovery factor (WCC + SFF) for the economic
life (see the discussion of capital charges)
K = (1 + i)/(1 + r); present worth of an inflationary value
i = inflation rate
r = discount rate
Nb = book life in years
An inflation rate of 6% (i = 0.06) and a discount rate of 10$ (r = 0.10) are
used for new units. Values of Lf for power units with a remaining life of
B-60
-------
15, 20, 25, and 30 (new unit) years are shown In Table B-36. The first-year
operating and maintenance costs are multiplied by the appropriate Lf to
obtain the levelized operating and maintenance costs.

SI SYSTEM NOTATION
The SI system of metric units is not used as the primary numerical system
in these premises because of the widespread use of traditional units in cor-
relative and supportive literature and general practice. Use of the SI system
is not standardized in the utility industry, although steps in this direction
are being made (34). The SI system specifies a number of rules of usage,
form, and style in addition to the numerical standards. These too are part of
the SI system and should be followed when using it. Detailed procedures for
use of SI conventions in the primary data or conversion to SI convention are
readily available in the literature. A detailed general guide to SI conven-
tion is available in ASTM E 380 79 (35). To provide uniformity in the
comparison of data developed from these premises, such a guide should be
consulted in using the SI system.

ADIPIC ACID INTERACTIVE MODEL

ADIPIC ACID INTERACTIVE MODEL
The adipic acid computerized model in the Shawnee computer model is
available as an interactive model that allows the user to optimize the adipic
acid enhanced flue gas desulfurization (FGD) system by calculating operating
conditions at various input conditions. The optimized values can then be
input to the Shawnee model and executed in "forced-through mode" to determine
the entire system design and cost.
Adipic acid is an organic acid which serves to buffer the pH of the
limestone slurry in the range of M.6-5.8, thus maintaining a higher driving
force for SC>2 removal while operating at a lower limestone stoichiometry.
It has been found at the Shawnee test facility at TVA's Shawnee Steam Plant
that a stoichiometric ratio of 1.07 mol CaCOg/mol (S02 + 2HC1) absorbed
provides the optimum conditions. Higher stoichiometric ratios have little
effect on S02 removal, can cause scaling, and will increase operating costs.
The data generated at the test facility have been reduced to mathematical
equations that project a material balance based on input L/G, SC>2 removal,
adipic acid concentration, and pH. It is recommended that both pH and lime-
stone stoichiometries be input with the values described above. The model
projects the remaining condition when any two of the values for L/G, S02
removal, or adipic acid concentration are input.
The adipic acid model requires user knowledge of adipic acid-enhanced
systems. Unless L/G, 862 removal, or adipic acid concentrations are known
or specified, it is recommended that the model be executed several times to
optimize conditions.
The FORTRAN variable names are presented in Table E-1 and they are
defined in Table E-2. An example COMMAND procedure to interactively execute
only the adipic acid model is presented in Table E-3. The results of an
interactive computer run are illustrated in Table E-H.

POND INTERACTIVE MODEL
The pond model in the Shawnee computer model can be executed in an inter-
active mode to project pond designs and costs independent of the scrubbing
model. In this mode, the pond design is based on the final volume of the
waste, which is specified by the GPMSS and THRS input variables. GPMSS
specifies the waste input rate in gal/min using the final dry bulk density and
THRS specifies the lifetime hours of pond disposal site operation.
The FORTRAN variable names are presented in Table F-1 and they are
defined in Table F-2. An example COMMAND procedure to interactively execute
only the pond model is presented in Table F-3. The results of an interactive
computer run are illustrated in Table F-4.

LANDFILL INTERACTIVE MODEL
The landfill model in the Shawnee computer model can be executed in an
interactive mode to project landfill designs and costs independent of the
scrubbing model. In this mode, the landfill design is based on the final
volume of the waste, which is specified by the GPMSS and TOPHRS input varia-
bles. GPMSS specifies the waste input rate in yd3/hr at the compacted
volume and TOPHRS specifies the lifetime hours of landfill disposal site
operation.
The FORTRAN variable names are presented in Table G-1 and they are
defined in Table G-2. An example COMMAND procedure to interactively execute
only the landfill model is presented in Table G-3. The results of an inter-
active computer run are illustrated in Table G-M.

16. ABSTRACT
The manual describes a Shawnee flue gas desulfurization (FGD) computer
model and gives detailed instructions for its use. The model, jointly developed by
Bechtel National, Inc. and TVA (in conjunction with the EPA-sponsored Shawnee
test program), is capable of projecting preliminary design and economics for lime-
and limestone-scrubbing FGD systems, including spray tower, turbulent contact ab-
sorber (TCA), and venturi/spray-tower scrubbing options. It may be used to project
the effect on system design and economics of variations in required SO2 removal,
scrubber operating parameters (gas velocity, liquid/gas ratio, alkali stoichiometry,
and liquor holdtime in slurry recirculation tanks), reheat temperature, and scrub-
ber bypass. It may also be used to evaluate alternative waste disposal methods or
additives (MgO or adipic acid) on costs for the selected process. Although the model
is not intended to project the economics of an individual system to a high degree of
accuracy, it allows prospective users to quickly project comparative design and
costs for limestone and lime case variations on a common design and cost basis. The
manual describes and explains the user-supplied input data which are required (e.g. ,
boiler size, coal characteristics, and SO2 removal requirements). Outputs include
a material balance, equipment list, and capital investment/annual revenue needs.
