ProposalDescription: 

Phase I Heritage Impact Assessment (including a Palaeontological Assessment) in Terms of Section 38(8) of the National Heritage Resources Act (No 25 of 1999) for the Proposed Installation of Dual Flue Gas Conditioning Plant at Tutuka Power Station near Standerton, Mpumalanga Province

Expanded_Motivation: 

The aim of installing DFGC plants is to reduce the Particulate Emissions at the power station by increasing the existing Electrostatic Precipitator (ESP) efficiency. It has been established through physical testing that the injection of SO3 will reduce particulate emissions by 23%. Flue gas is produced during various combustion processes and can contain different dust particles, oil vapours and acid vapours, carbon monoxide as well as other toxic substances. Given the environmental contamination arising from gas emissions, Eskom intends to install DFGC plana t at Tutuka Power Station. The goal of flue gas conditioning is to enhance these properties via injecting SO3 or NH into the flue gas stream. There will be storage of hazardous materials on-site, including SO3 and NH3. The volume of hazardous materials stored to be injected into the DFGC will be approximately 2543 at any given time during the operation of the DFGC plants.
