An industrial coal-fired boiler for process steam is
equipped with a 10-year-old electrostatic precipitator
(ESP). Changes in coal quality have caused stack
emissions to be in noncompliance with federal
standards for particulates. Two mutually exclusive
alternatives have been proposed to rectify this problem
(doing nothing is not an option). The MARR is 9% per
year. Make a recommendation regarding which
alternative to select.
