The effect of the elemental composition of coals on the expected concentration of sulfur in dry flue gas is analyzed. Linear engineering plots of the reduced sulfur dioxide concentration (per 1% of sulfur content for dry fuel mass) as a function of the ash content of coals for dry fuel mass are obtained for high- and low-reactivity Donbass coals and can be used to estimate the expected emissions of sulfur dioxide based on data from a technical analysis of the coals.
