AB  - The low-low temperature electrostatic precipitator (LLT-ESP) is one of the most 
      used devices for pollutant control in ultra-low emission coal-fired power plants. 
      This study investigated the influence of the LLT-ESP on polycyclic aromatic 
      hydrocarbons (PAHs) distributions in flue gas from an ultra-low emission 
      coal-fired power plant. The total gas-phase PAH concentration was reduced from 
      27.52 mug/m(3) to 3.38 mug/m(3). The total particulate-phase PAH concentration 
      decreased from 14.36 mug/m(3) to 0.34 mug/m(3). The removal efficiency of the 
      LLT-ESP for gas-phase and particulate phase carcinogenic higher molecular weight 
      (HMW) PAHs was 85% and 99%, respectively. The total concentration of 16 selected 
      PAHs in feed coal was 98.16 mug/g. The fly ash particle size successively 
      decreased from Electric Field 1 (F1) to Electric Field 4 (F4). The total PAH 
      concentration decreased from F1 to F2 but increased again from F3 to F4. The flue 
      gas cooling process significantly contributed to the elimination of both gas- and 
      particulate-phase PAHs in the flue gas. Presumably, most of the condensed PAHs 
      were adhered to or absorbed in the fly ash and were scavenged in Field 1. Both 
      gas- and particulate-phase 5- and 6-ring PAHs in the flue gas were completely 
      removed in Field 1. The discharge process in the electric fields may promote the 
      formation of several 4- or 5-ring PAHs. In this study, benzo[k]fluoranthene (BKF) 
      and benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) were regenerated in the particles rather than in the 
      flue gas during the discharge process in the electric fields.
