The present invention relates generally to the field of emission control equipment for boilers, heaters, kilns, or other flue gas-, or combustion gas-, generating devices (e.g., those located at power plants, processing plants, etc.) and, in particular to a new and useful method and apparatus for reducing and/or eliminating various liquid discharges from one or more emission control equipment devices (e.g., one or more wet flue gas desulfurization (WFGD) units). In another embodiment, the method and apparatus of the present invention is designed to reduce and/or eliminate the amount of liquid waste that is discharged from a WFGD unit by subjecting the WFGD liquid waste to one or more drying processes, one or more spray dryer (or spray dry) absorber processes, and/or one or more spray dryer (or spray dry) evaporation processes.

System and method for reducing liquid discharge from one or more devices

A process and apparatus for producing coal-water fuel comprises crushing and primary grinding of the coal to form a liberated granular material, multiple stage froth flotation of the granulated coal to reduce its ash content and pyritic sulfur content. The resulting product from the froth flotation operations is dewatered to yield a product having a selected solids content. A stable slurry is then produced from the product by establishing a selected particle size distribution. Refuse accumulated from the various previous steps is collected, dewatered and the water is clarified for use in the process steps.
