9 INHALT Kapitel 1 1. Introduction 2. Concept 3. Assumptions 4. Results 5. Conclusions Conclusions 1. Particle removal by ESP and FF is available and proven from 500 kw to 2 MW for a limit value of 20 mg/m 3 real emissions are typically < mg/m 3 and heat production cost increase by 6 12% 2. ESP exhibit higher investment cost, FF exhibit higher operation cost, resulting in almost equal total cost - not considering higher requirements for fuel quality in case of FF 3. Applications from 100 kw are possible, however, specific cost of equipment on the market increase dramatically < 500 kw, > cost reduction potential for < 500 kw

10 Conclusions 4. To guarantee high removal efficiency in practice, strong quality requirements are needed for combustion design and control and for plant planning and operation: Availability > 97% needs: - No On/Off and long stationary operation - Heat exchange varying with load to enable T > 120 C High burnout quality: 5% C for ESP, 2% C for FF Limited water content for FF Further experiences for < 1 MW needed 5. FF are more critical for carbon burnout, glowing particles and condensation. ESP are advantageous for wet fuels or difficult conditions, while FF can easily be applied for dry fuels and optional sorptive removal of HCl, SO 2, and PCDD/F.
