  • Mercury Emissions from South Africa's Coal-Fired Power Stations
    Mercury emissions from South Africa’s coal-fired power stations Belinda L. Garnham*1 and Kristy E. Langerman1 1Eskom Holdings SOC Limited, Megawatt Park, 1Maxwell Drive, Sunninghill, Sandton, [email protected], [email protected] Received: 8 August 2016 - Reviewed: 3 October 2016 - Accepted: 2 November 2016 http://dx.doi.org/10.17159/2410-972X/2016/v26n2a8 Abstract Mercury is a persistent and toxic substance that can be bio-accumulated in the food chain. Natural and anthropogenic sources con- tribute to the mercury emitted in the atmosphere. Eskom’s coal-fired power stations in South Africa contributed just under 93% of the total electricity produced in 2015 (Eskom 2016). Trace amounts of mercury can be found in coal, mostly combined with sulphur, and can be released into the atmosphere upon combustion. Coal-fired electricity generation plants are the highest contributors to mer- cury emissions in South Africa. A major factor affecting the amount of mercury emitted into the atmosphere is the type and efficiency of emission abatement equipment at a power station. Eskom employs particulate emission control technology at all its coal-fired power stations, and new power stations will also have sulphur dioxide abatement technology. A co-beneficial reduction of mercury emissions exists as a result of emission control technology. The amount of mercury emitted from each of Eskom’s coal-fired power stations is calculated, based on the amount of coal burnt and the mercury content in the coal. Emission Reduction Factors (ERF’s) from two sources are taken into consideration to reflect the co-benefit received from the emission control technologies at the stations.

    Urban Air Quality Management and Planning in South Africa Yvonne Scorgie Student Number: 909441565 Department of Geography, Environmental Management and Energy Studies, Faculty of Science, University of Johannesburg Supervisor: Professor H. J. Annegarn A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Science, University of Johannesburg, in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Science 15 September 2012 Dedication This work is dedicated to my husband Anthony Scorgie, my mother Margaret Goosen and my children Michael and Katelyn. iii Acknowledgments I extend my sincere appreciation to the following individuals and organisations that have provided support during the course of my research: Prof. Harold Annegarn, for sharing his extensive knowledge of South Africa‟s air quality issues, and his insight into the shaping of solutions to suit local circumstances. His unwavering support and leadership have been invaluable. Melanie Kneen (University of Johannesburg) for her work on the NEDLAC Dirty Fuels Study, specifically in regard to extracting remote sensing burn scar data to estimate the spatial extent of biomass burning and assisting in the spatial distribution of household fuel burning and road transport emissions. Dr Lucian Burger, Hanlie Liebenberg-Enslin and Gerrit Kornelius (Airshed Planning Professionals Pty Ltd) for supporting my interest in air quality governance and providing valuable technical input. Lucian‟s guidance on the estimation and future projection of vehicle exhaust emissions during the Dirty Fuels Project, Gerrit‟s collaboration on the work undertaken in support of national emission standard setting, and Hanlie‟s shared interest in local air quality management planning is specifically acknowledged. Renee von Gruenewaldt (nee Thomas, Airshed Planning Professionals), for assisting in updating portions of the Highveld emissions inventory used as the basis for the modelling of tropospheric NO2 concentrations.

  • The Crisis in South Africa's Energy Sector
    Working Document THE CRISIS IN SOUTH AFRICA’S ENERGY SECTOR: Towards a just transition centring job creation and social ownership The Crisis in South Africa’s Energy Sector: Towards a Just Transition Brian Kamanzi Working Document no 3 Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research South Africa stands at the precipice of a major economic crisis. In this increas- ingly dangerous situation, the near collapse of the state-owned electricity utility, Eskom, presents a set of serious challenges to the working class and society at large. Amid rolling blackouts and rising domestic electricity tariffs, which cut into low and stagnating wages, retrenchments loom over Eskom workers, and workers across the country. These are fuelling protests across the country, igniting resistance which glows with the intensity of centuries of struggle. Wide-scale industrialisation during the twentieth century led to massive environ- mental changes across the planet, disproportionately affecting the most oppressed communities with harsh weather conditions. Crises caused by environmental chang- es are generally met with a demand for urgent policy reforms. However, these reforms often adopt approaches that de-emphasise the importance of historical context and lack an appreciation for the opportunity presented by the crisis. This includes raising fundamental questions about the transformation of society. In the wake of modern industrial development, which was driven by racial capital- ism across Southern Africa, fierce conceptual debates have raged in an attempt to understand and characterise the South African economy. These debates have a real impact on public policy, and state and industry planning for the country. In 1996, soon after the dawn of a new democratic dispensation in South Africa following the end of apartheid, academics Ben Fine and Zavareh Rustomjee introduced the conceptual lens of the Minerals-Energy Complex (MEC) — a system of capital accumulation driven by mining and electrification — to better understand the polit- ical economy of South Africa.

  • Strategy to Reduce the Health Impacts Associated with Air Pollution from Fuel Combustion
    Strategy to reduce the health impacts associated with air pollution from fuel combustion 5 December 2003 DRAFT FINAL REPORT Executive summary Objective and scope The primary objective of the study was provide an assessment of the social and economic impact of the phasing out of air pollution from combustible fuels in the country over a period of time, and to provide specific guidance on supply side measures to support the process. The study investigated emissions resulting from ddomestic fuel burning, power generation industrial activity, transport and activity in the agriculture sector. It is important to recognise that the scope of this study was limited in that it only included the quantification of inhalation exposures due to fuel burning related atmospheric emissions. It does not quantify emissions or impacts associated with other sources of emissions. The emissions identified were SO2, NOx, particulates, CO, lead, VOCs, (CO2, CH4, N2O). It must also be considered that although the study investigated emissions and their sources at conurbation level, impacts were considered from a national level and the overall strategy is at national level The following conurbations were included in the study: Cities of Johannesburg and Ekurhuleni, Tshwane, Cape Town and Ethekwini Mpumalanga Highveld Vaal Triangle For air pollution prediction the US-EPA approved Gaussian Puff air dispersion model was used, and limited to first order chemical transformation (secondary particulate formation), therefore excluded photochemical modelling (and ozone
