Grant Description: NOTE: Please read the Master Funding Opportunity Announcement for complete evaluation criteria and instructions on how to prepare your application. https://e-center.doe.gov/iips/faopor.nsf/1be0f2271893ba198525644b006bc0be/7dd24fd3b334d11985256f32005c0821?OpenDocument Applications which fit the following description should be submitted under this funding opportunity title of Partitioning and Mechanism Studies for Mercury and Associated Trace Metals within Coal-Fired Processes (DE-PS26-05NT42244-06). Understanding mercury chemistry and process-related speciation mechanisms and transformations in laboratory experiments provide necessary steps to first understanding partitioning and subsequently developing mercury removal processes for advanced power systems, i.e., industrial and coal-fired applications for PC-boilers, cyclone boilers, tangentially-fired boilers, fluidized-bed boilers and gasification processes. Past research has shown a reasonable link between mercury speciation and several parameters including the various constituents of fly ash (i.e., unburned carbon/ LOI); fly ash properties (such as fly ash alkalinity); and process specific information (coal rank, boiler type, flue-gas temperature, Cl concentration, NOx concentration, sulfur compounds, and CO/CO2 concentrations). Grant applications are sought to further understand partitioning and chemistry of mercury and other trace metal and organic substances in coal-fired (bituminous, subbituminous, and lignite) systems. Specifically, modeling or experiments using statistical analysis of these identified parameters on chemical intermediaries and mechanisms are sought.
