Plant species for revegetation of a saline flue gas desulfurization Sludge Pond
Journal of Environmental Quality, 1996Co-Authors: L. F. Salo, Janick F. Artiola, J. W. Goodrich-mahoneyAbstract:Codisposing saline wastewater from electrical generating stations with flue gas desulfurization (FGD) scrubber Sludge simplifies waste disposal but produces a saline waste that will later require revegetation. This waste is low in macronutrients, contains high levels of salts and B, and has a fine texture. This study identified plants, based on germination test results, that show promise for sowing at an evaporation Pond in eastern Arizona where scrubber Sludge and wastewater are codisposed. Forty-four grass, forb, and shrub accessions germinated on filter paper in saline water from the disposal Pond. Dilutions of disposal Pond water with untreated well water from the site ranged in EC from 0.17 to 3.03 S m -1 . Our criteria for evaluating plants to be used in revegetating saline FGD Sludge were : (i) ability to germinate in increasing levels of disposal Pond water and (ii) ease of establishment from seed. The percentage of Pond water that would reduce germination to 50% that of well-water controls (P 50 ) ranged as high as >100 for the most tolerant plants. Accessions that show promise for sowing at these types of saline waste disposal sites include : Elytrigia pontica 'Jose' and 'Largo', Atriplex gardneri, Puccinellia airoides, P. distans 'Fults', Festuca aurundinacea 'Alta' and 'Fawn', Krascheninnikovia lanata, Kochia prostrata 'Immigrant', Panicum virgatum 'Nebraska 28', Sporobolus airoides 'Saltalk', Leymus angustus 'Praireland' and Elymus trachycaulus 'Pryor'.

modeling and optimization of fine coal beneficiation by hydrocyclone and multi gravity separation to produce fine lignite clean coal
Particulate Science and Technology, 2017Co-Authors: Okan Ozbakir, Selcuk Koltka, Eyup SabahAbstract:ABSTRACTWe evaluated the suitability, contribution to the national economy, and environmental impact of hydrocyclone and Multi-Gravity Separation (MGS) processes using fine-sized coal taken from the Soma coal Sludge Pond. The lignite coal tailings were treated by a two-stage concentration scheme for the recovery of fine clean coal. Pre-enrichment experiment parameters were determined by the Taguchi experimental design method, and the results were interpreted by the Statistical Packages for the Social Sciences (SPSS) 15.0 program to evaluate the optimum parameter values. The tailings initially contained 54.82% ash and had a LCV of 2,279 kcal/kg; after hydrocyclone pre-enrichment, the concentrate was 42.60% ash and had a calorific value of 2,573 kcal/kg (55.75% coal yield). After the final enrichment process, the ash of the pre-concentrated coal was decreased to 24.21% and left a clean coal with a base calorific value of 3,226 kcal/kg (36.16% coal yield). The total sulfur of the obtained clean coal was 0.52...
