(ESS) Proposed Test Date: October 9,2018 Tracking No.2018-303st Dear Mr. Fox: The North Carolina Division of Air Quality(DAQ)has reviewed the protocol submittal form(PSF)for the compliance testing of boiler ESB-I. The proposed test methods are acceptable to determine the particulate matter(PM)emissions as discussed below. Emissions Source ESB-1 is a clean cellulosic biomass-fired boiler controlled by MC-1 multicyclone and ESP-1 electrostatic precipitator. The maximum permitted heat input rate is 29.4 million Btu per hour (mmBtu/hr). The proposed rate for testing of 26.46 mmBtu/hr is acceptable. The following regulations apply: SB3 BACT, 15A NCAC 2D .0504 Particulates from Wood Burning Heat Exchangers,40 CFR 60 Subpart Dc Standards of Performance for Small Industrial-Commercial- Institutional Steam Generating Units,40 CFR 63 Subpart JJJJJJ National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Industrial, Commercial,Institutional Boilers Area Sources, 15A NCAC 2Q 0315 Synthetic Minor and 15A NCAC 2Q .0317 Avoidance Conditions for 15A NCAC 213 .0530 Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD). SB3 BACT limit for PM/PM1a/PM2.5 is 0.05 pounds per million Btu(lb/mmBtu). The 63 Subpart JJJJJJ limit for filterable PM is 0.070 lb/mmBtu. ESS has proposed EPA Methods 1 through 5 to determine the filterable PM. The proposed methods are acceptable. Approval of this protocol does not exempt the tester from the minimum requirements of the sampling methods. Any deviations remain subject to approval by DAQ.
