Air Impact Reduction Measures
BLCP Power Plant prioritizes environmental management as a top priority and confirms that it meets environmental standards and complies with government regulations to help improve the environment. BLCP Power Plant uses proven technology from around the world and is environmentally friendly, installing various pollution reduction equipment, including:
Pollution Reduction Equipment Installed
- ► Installation of low NOx burners to reduce nitrogen oxide emissions
- ► Installation of Electrostatic Precipitator (ESP) for dust collection
- ► Installation of Flue Gas Desulphurization (FGD) system for sulfur dioxide removal
- ► 200-meter high chimney stack
Air Quality Monitoring
For air monitoring, BLCP Power Plant has installed a Continuous Emission Monitoring System (CEMS) at the stack and 4 Air Quality Monitoring Stations (AQMS) around the plant.
Pollutant Control
BLCP Power Plant controls the sulfur content in coal at a low level of 0.27–0.7%, averaging 0.45% per year, and controls atmospheric emissions to be better than government-mandated standards, as follows
- ► Particulate matter 43 mg/m³ vs. the Pollution Control Department standard of 120 mg/m³ — 64% better
- ► Sulfur dioxide (SO2) per EIA at 262 ppm vs. the standard of 320 ppm — 18% better
- ► Nitrogen oxides (NOx) 241 ppm vs. the standard of 350 ppm — 31% better
