Problem-3: Consider a thermoelectric power plant of total capacity of 1300 MW with a load factor (or annual capacity) of 75.5 percent and an efficiency of 42 percent. Determine the total annual amount of particulates, CO,, CO, NO,, and SO, if milled peat is the fuel source. The ultimate analysis and calorific value of milled peat is as follows: Moisture Ash Carbon Hydrogen Nitrogen Sulphur Oxygen Calorific value 6.8% 48.5% | 2.6% 50% 1.6% 1.5% 16.6% 22.5 MJ/kg Assume 92 percent of ash is as fly ash or particulates, using an electrostatic precipitator (ESP) with an efficiency of 97.5%, compute the emission rate of particulates. If particulates are reduced by flue gas filters with an efficiency of 97%, compute the emission rate of particulates.

Wet coal is dried in a continuous rotary dryer that operates at atmospheric pressure. The chips with a water content of 40 wt% and must leave with a moisture content of less than 15%. Hot air is fed to the dryer at a rate of 11.6 m (STP)/kg wet coal. HOT AIR MOIST AIR DRYER WET COAL DRIED COAL To monitor the performance of the dryer by sampling the exiting coal and determining their moisture content directly would be a cumbersome procedure and almost impossible to automate. Instead, wet- and dry-bulb thermometers are mounted in both the inlet and outlet air lines, and the moisture content of the exiting chips is determined by a material balance calculator. (STP: Standard Temperature and Pressure is 0*C and 101.325 kPa) (a) The hot air stream has an absolute humidity of 0.058 kg moisture/kg dry air and leaves with 0.087 kg moisture/kg dry air, calculate the mass of water in the exiting air per kilogram of wet coal fed.
