emmission control in power plants
By Greg Bierie, R. Todd Swinderman, and Andrew D. Marti
The requirements placed on belt conveyors have become increasingly complicated with respect to predictable and reliable operation and the reduction of fugitive, especially dust, emissions. The proven techniques of using engineered-flow chutes and air-supported belt conveyors can be found at many coal-fired power plants and this equipment [...]
