Piedmont Natural Gas,Inc.—Wadesboro Compressor Station Wadesboro,Anson County,North Carolina Nitrogen Oxides,Carbon Monoxide and Volatile Organic Compounds Emissions Testing on One Generator ID No.EGO Air Permit No. 10097ROO'Facility ID 04/00056 Conducted May 21,2013 Tracking No.2013-071 ST The report of the subject testing has been reviewed and deemed acceptable. The testing was performed by Air-Tech Environmental,LLC in accordance with the requirements of Air Permit No. 10097ROO specific limitations and conditions 2.2-A.2. During testing,the nitrogen oxides (NOO, carbon monoxide (CO) and volatile organic compounds (VOC) emissions for the generator were demonstrated to be below the applicable emission limits. The source that was tested is one four-stroke lean bum natural gas-fired emergency generator ID No. EGOL The generator is subject to 15A NCAC 2D.1100 Control ofToxic AJr Pollutants and 40 CFR Part 60 Subpart JJJJ National Emissions Standardsfor Hazardous Air Pollutants For Stationary RectorocatingInternal Combustion Engines.Thetest results for NO.,CO and VOC are tabulated in the table below: Piedmont Natural Gas—Generator EGO1 Method 7E,10 and Method 18/25A Emissions: Nitrogen Oxides 1.5 -hr 2.0 -hr Yes 99 ppmvd P 15%02 160 ppmvd @ 15%OZ Yes Carbon Monoxide 1.6 g/H -hr 4.0 -hr 15A NCAC 2D.1100 Yes 168 pprnyd @ 15%02 540 p.pmvd 15%OZ 40 CFR 60 Subpart JJJJ Yes Volatile Organic 0.14 g/H -hr 1.0 -hr Yes Compounds 26 ppavd a 15%02 86 mvd @ 15%OZ Yes g/Hp-hr—gram per horsepower hour ppmvd @ 15%02—parts per million at 15%Oxygen The total VOC emissions were determined using Method 25A and the methane and ethane emissions by Method 18. Since methane and ethane are exempt per 40 CFR 5 1.100 Definitions for VOC the values may be subtracted out from the Method 25A VOC test results. Generator ESOl'is rated at 804 brake horsepower(BHP). The highest achievable load during testing was 738 BHP (92%). Therefore,the performance test meets the requirement ofbeing within 10 percent of 100 percent peak load(40 CFR 60.4244(a)). The subject test results are considered an acceptable demonstration of compliance with the applicable NO., CO, and VOC emission limits.
