These are important factors which are not found anywhere else.  The big difference between lime consumption in the East vs. West is not only a result of the different sulfur content but also the calcium in the coal and the reactivity of that calcium.  So an empirical average may be equally or more helpful than a very time consuming calculation which will correctly assess the impacts of sulfur and calcium content but will have to also rely on an empirical reactivity factor.

 

We are also initiating online discussion of these factors and will adjust them based on the results.
