Mercury Release and Speciation in Chemical Looping Combustion of Coal

Mercury from Coal Combustion

A 1997 study in Minnesota indicated a relationship between mercury deposition trends and regional coal combustion (as well as other possible sources) spanning a period of two centuries (Engstrom and Swain 1997). Sediment core sampling from rural lakes in eastern Minnesota indicated a growth in mercury deposited from the air since the first half of the 1800s, with the amount peaking in the 1960s...

Release of mercury vapor from coal combustion ash.

The long-term stability of Hg in coal combustion by-products (CCBs) was evaluated at ambient and near-ambient temperatures. Six CCB samples with atypically high levels of total Hg were selected for study assuming a greater potential for release of measurable amounts of Hg vapor. The samples selected included two fly ash samples from U.S. eastern bituminous coal, two fly ash samples from South A...
