Abstract
Abstract An onsite investigation of the mercury emission from a Chinese 200 MW pulverized coal (PC) boiler equipped with various air pollution control devices (APCDs) was conducted by using the Ontario Hydro method (OHM). The mercury mass balance was + 4.6% of the input coal mercury for the whole system. Small amounts of mercury were detected in the bottom ash; nearly 90% of the mercury in PC was removed by the existing APCDs, i.e. selective catalytic reduction unit (SCR) and electrostatic precipitator (ESP) followed by fabric filters (FFs) baghouse, and flue gas desulfurization system (FGD). The concentration of oxidized mercury (converted from the elemental form) in the flue gas increased from 14% before SCR to 75% after SCR. Hence, the mercury removal efficiency of ESP and FGD was significantly improved when compared to the removal rates found in previous field measurement. This study demonstrates that the conversion of elemental mercury into the oxidized forms significantly improves the overall mercury removal efficiency of conventional APCDs, and most of the mercury emitted after FGD was in the elemental form.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
