摘要
Mercury is a known neurological toxin that the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulates under the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for municipal waste incinerators and medical waste incinerators. Although later vacated by the courts, mercury regulations were also promulgated for coal-fired utilities. Under the existing and proposed NESHAP for the portland cement industry, EPA is proposing to regulate mercury for the portland cement industry for both new and existing cement plants. A substantial body of information has been generated in the coal-fired boiler industry for activated carbon injection control systems. Utilizing this knowledge base and the limited data from the cement industry, issues and opportunities for activated carbon injection to control mercury from cement kilns will be discussed.
