    Dear
    Mr. Brown:
    This
    letter was prepared to assist in
    City Water Light & Power's
    (CWLP) efforts to evaluate
    boron removal using electrocoagulation
    (EC).
    Introduction
    The Illinois Environmental Protection
    Agency (IEPA) has
    requested that CWLP evaluate
    pre-treating the Flue
    Gas Desulphurization (FGD)
    scrubber blowdown wastewater
    from
    Dallman
    31, 32 and 33 generating
    facilities using electrocoagulation
    (EC), prior to
    discharge.
    Boron
    in FGD scrubber blowdown is derived
    from naturally occurring
    compounds found in
    coal. The boron is carried in
    the flue gas after combustion
    and is ultimately dissolved
    in the
    FGD wastewater.
    Boron removal
    by electrocoagulation from FGD wastewaters
    has not been verified
    by the
    EPA. Verification
    studies by the EPA
    and the Department of Energy (DOE)
    have focused
    on
    contamination in
    such waters as drinking water
    and radionuclides in wastewater.
    Contamination
    removal efficiencies
    (CRE) calculated in these studies
    indicate that boron
    removal by EC ranges
    from 3% - 71 %. Research papers
    on EC also indicate that
    EC can
    remove boron
    from solution depending on its
    form or speciation. The range
    of boron CRE is
    explained by studies indicating
    that EC works by creating
    stable precipitates from
    contaminants
    in waters based on the oxide/hydroxide
    activation energies.
    EPA-DOE results
    also indicate that EC is unreliable
    for inorganic contaminants
    that do not
    form
    precipitates or do not absorb
    to solids. Certain forms of boron
    are among these
    contaminants.
