Plant cuts emissions for a price
Shippingport Pennsylvania reports on the Bruce Mansfield generating plant, a 2.36 million kilowatt coal fired facility opened at 1.3 billion dollars. Scrubbers wash and scrub sulfur dioxide, cutting emissions to 92.1 percent removal but at high cost. The plant uses vast pollution controls, including limestone-injected scrubbers producing 7,600 tons of sludge daily, with customers paying about seven percent more for power. Ohio dominates emissions, and scrubber performance varies with nationwide adoption as Japan shows substantial air quality gains.
