We eontinue

We 

# encountered a emall challenge on the 

# power production side of 

# tbin&s during 

# the last 

# week of the month. 

# Sediment

accumulation in 

# the Unit 3 

# boiler, also 

# known as slagging, is 

# caused by 

# the lower quality 

# of 

# coal 

# we occasioDally burn in



# our 

# eoal-fired pbmu. 

# 'l1Da ml:uced the generation output 

# of UDit 3, 

# but did not impact the carbon captuze 

# pi.'UCeS8.



# SlaggiDg ill typical

# all 

# coal-fired power 

## units 

# and we 

# haw &ince 

# worked 

# at clearmg away 

# the 

# effects of alaging on UDit

In 

# the eoming months, 

# we will 

# ccmtinue to 

# oommjssion the acid pbmt 

# on site in 

# order to 

# conwrt 

# captured sulphur climdde

iDtD 

# salable sulphuric acid. '!bat process 

# should eome online tiDs spring.

We will also be 

# taking 

# the 

# c:arlKm captul'e fac:ilizy ofltine for 

# 4-6 da,ya
