Reducing mercury emission from coal combustion in the energy sector in Thailand: final report

This study aims to conduct an inventory of mercury emissions from selected coal-fired power plants in Thailand. This study, focusing on emissions of mercury from coal combustion so as to generate electricity, is a contribution to international efforts to reduce mercury pollution. It aims to establish mercury emission factor and then to estimate future trend emission of mercury from a coal-fired power plant sector in Thailand. The expected outcomes include the action plan on reducing mercury emission from coal combustion and capacity building for stakeholders.
