RE: E-maiUrom"'your_Division's_Main_Page,

SWEPCO FINAL RTC ALL.doc; 2900506ROFinal.doc

Although there are numbers in the application, I don't think it was driven by a $/ton or

efficiency, in the end. At least nothing that would be helpful to you.

Attached is the permit and response to comments. There is stuff about NOx in the comments

Let me know if you want the whole file/application. I may be able to upload it for you

Hello,

Please direct this request to the appropriate person, as necessary. Thanks.

I have two questions on information posted on the RACT/BACT/LAER Clearinghouse website

concerning a BACT determination ADEQ made concerning the Southwest Electric Power Company,

John W. Turk Jr. Power Plant, permit number 2123-AOP-RO, date 11/05/08. Mr. Rheaume is the listed

contact. I would greatly appreciate a response in the next few days.

Questions:

1. What did you determine to be the cost in dollars/ton of NOx removed for selective catalytic reduction

(SCR)?

2. What did you determine to be the NOx removal efficiency for the SCR system?

Please call me or email if you have questions. An email response will be appreciated.

Thank you so much for your help.

BACT Step 3 - Rank Feasible Control Technologies by Control Effectiveness

• SCR: 60 to 90 percent NOx emissions reduction.

• LNB/OFA: 30 to 50 percent NOx emission.

BACT Step 4 - Evaluation and Selection of BACT

SCR constitutes the top system for NOx emissions control for a pulverized coal-fired boiler;

therefore, AMPGS will utilize SCR control. In addition, as a secondary control measure,

AMPGS will utilize LNB/OFA.

BACT for the AMPGS is the use of these technologies to achieve a 0.07 lb/mmBtu 30-day

rolling average NOx emissions rate (equivalent to a 0.10 1b/mmBtu 3-hour average). The boilers

at the AMPGS will be equipped with LNB and OFA to minimize the amount of NOx generated

by the combustion ofpulverized coal in the boilers to a rate ofno more than 0.35 lb/mmBtu.

COMPARISON OF PROPOSED BACT WITH OTHER RECENT PSD PERMITS

Table 2-1 compares the NOx BACT proposed for the AMPGS with the NOx BACT

determinations made by regulatory agencies in other recent PSD permits issued for comparable

pulverized coal-fired boilers. Each of the comparable facilities will employ a LNB/OFA and

SCR for NOx control. [Note: The Santee Cooper Cross Generating Station is not required to

re: Questions for Air Quality Permitting

Here is the information you requested. If you have any further questions please let us know.

1. What did you determine to be the cost in dollars/ton ofNOx removed for selective catalytic reduction

(SCR)?

No economic information was provided for NOx removal. Their last permit application addendum dated

3/31/2005 is EDMS Document ID: 32782742. The second paragraph of Page 2 of 5 states that no economic

. analysis was required for BACT control due to the fact that the most stringent control technology was

employed.

2. What did you determine to be the NOx removal efficiency for the SCR system?

Approximately 71 % using SCR + LNB. See Table at top of Page 2 of 5 on same EDMS document EDMS

Document ID: 32782742.

You can access our EDMS Document Management System at the following address:

RE: Questions on a BACT Determination

I left AECl's application at our ftp site. (See instructions below.) It is in the Outgoing/Susie folder under 2006-01-066.

See Appendix B of AECl's application for the economic portion. Please note that this is AECl's analysis and since I didn't

rely on the economic portion for the SCR BACT determination, I did not thoroughly review it. Hopefully it will give you

.what you need. Let me know if you have any questions and I will be glad to help you if I can.

Susan,

The information Kyra sent was helpful with the SCR efficiency, but we would like information of the

dollars/ton for SCR NOx removal. Page 42 of the analysis stated ..."the economic analysis provided

by AECI was not considered in selecting the NOx limit."

If the BACT application containing that economic analysis could be made available to us, it might be

helpful to us.

determination Missouri DEQ made concerning the Associated Electric Cooperative, Inc., Norborne PoWer Plant, permit

number 022008-010, date 2/22/08. Ms. Kyra Moore is the listed contact. I would greatly appreciate a response in the

next few days.

Questions:

1. What did you determine to be the cost in dollars/ton of NOx removed for selective catalytic reduction (SCR)?

2. What did you determine to be the NOx removal efficiency for the SCR system?

Please call me or email if you have questions. An email response will be appreciated.

Thank you so much for your help.

Main Boiler

AECI - Norborne is proposing to build a new supercritical pulverized coal fired (PCfired) boiler with a steam turbine generator with a nominal (= rated) net electrical output

of 689 MW (780 MW gross output). The unit will provide base load electricity and is

designed to operate continuously. Construction of the plant is scheduled to begin in the

early part of 2008 with commercial operation starting in 2012.

Low sulfur sub-bituminous Powder River Basin (PRB) coal is the intended fuel. The fuel

is pulverized to the consistency of talcum powder and pneumatically injected through

the burners into the furnace. PC-boilers are of a watertube design, meaning that the

heat from the combustion gases is used to heat water inside of tubes and convert it to

steam. The unit will be a dry bottom unit; coals with high fusion temperatures are

burned, resulting in dry ash.

NOx emissions will be controlled by LNB, over-fire air (OFA) and SCR. Baghouses will

be used for filterable PM10, acid gas and other inorganic HAP control; while DFGD using

lime will limit S02 emissions. A combination of baghouses and DFGD will control total

PM10 emissions. CO and VOC emissions will be controlled using good combustion

practices. The following table provides a summary of the design parameters of the

proposed boiler/generator.

*AECI submitted the application uSing a HHV value of 8,000 BTUlib. The HHV has been adjusted

according to coal analyses provided by AECI. The primary fuel feed rate is left unchanged to provide the

worst case scenario for HAP emissions calculations.

Auxiliary Equipment

An auxiliary boiler will be constructed for use during start-up of the main boiler and

during cold weather to supply heating steam for the boiler and turbine buildings. The

boiler will have a maximum heat input rate of 374.9 MMBTU/hr (2.678 Mgal/hr) and be

fueled with #2 fuel oil only (with heating value of 140,000 Btu/gallon). Hours of

operation for the boiler will not exceed 2,190 hours per year and the unit will be

equipped with LNB and flue gas recirculation (FGR).

- 26-
Permit Withdrawn on 5/12/08 - Not valid for construction or operation

the primary flame zone. Although FGR may be considered as a potential control option,

it is not typically installed on coal fired units due to the high hot particulate-laden flue

gas with relatively high O2 concentrations. FGR on a coal-fired boiler is estimated to

achieve a NOx reduction efficiency of less than 20%, due to a relatively low contribution

of thermal NOx to total NOx formation. It is considered less ~ffective than the alternative

post-combustion NOx control options (E.g., SCR and SNCR) and therefore will not be

examined further.

• Reburning

In reburning, up to 25% of the total fuel heat input is provided by injecting a secondary

(or reburning) fuel above the main combustion zone to produce a slightly fuel-rich zone

with a stoichiometry of about 90% theoretical air. Combustion of reburning fuel at fuelrich conditions result in hydrocarbon fragments, which react with a portion of incoming

NOx to form hydrogen cyanide, isocyanic acid, and other nitrogen-containing species.

These species are ultimately reduced to nitrogen. Finally, completion air is added

above the reburn zone to complete burnout of reburning fuel. It is estimated that a

reburn technology could provide a 50% NOx reduction in emissions.

• Selective Non-Catalytic Reduction (SNCR)

SNCR involves the direct injection of ammonia or urea at high flue gas temperatures

(approximately 1600 OF - 1900 OF). The ammonia or urea reacts with NOx in'the flue

gas to produce N2 and water. Although an SNCR system has been used as a retrofit,

SNCR systems have not been applied to large new pulverized coat (PC) units. PC

will be injected at the'optimum flue gas temperature, and that there will be adequate

mixing and residence time. Because of the difficulties associated with applying SNCR

to a large PC boiler, it is estimated that an SNCR system could provide a 30% NOx

reduction in emissions.

• Selective Catalytic Reduction

The SCR system involves injecting ammonia into the boiier flue gas in the presence of a

catalyst to reduce NOx to nitrogen and water. The performance of an SCR system is

influenced by several factors including flue gas temperature, SCR inlet NOx level, the

catalyst surface area, volume and age of the catalyst, and the amount of ammonia slip

that is acceptable. The SCR system has been demonstrated on several large PC

boilers on a continuous basis and many boilers have been retrofitted with SCRs to

control NOx emissions during ozone season. The SCR system is estimated to achieve

an additional 50Ofcdo 90% reduction.

• Rotating opposed fired air (ROFA) and Rotamix®

Rotating opposed fired air (ROFA) is a boosted overfire air system that includes a

patented rotation process. Like typical OFA systems, ROFA stages the primary

combustion zone to burn overall rich, with excess air added higher in the furnace to

burnout products of incomplete combustion. The ROFA nozzles are designed to

increase turbulence within the furnace, enabling the furnace volume to be used more

effectively for the combustion process, and reduce the maximum temperatures of the

combustion zone. A ROFA system was installed on an existing 80-MW (gross)

bituminous-fired utility boiler in the summer of 2002. Test results showed that the

Determination of BACT for NO~ for the Main Boiler

The combustion controls that AECI has proposed as achieving the lowest NOx levels

out of the boiler are low NOx Burners (LNB) and Overfire Air (OFA). Designing the boiler

using LNB in conjunction with OFA is a technologically feasible option and has been

. used extensively in industry. In addition, the boiler proposed for this project will be

designed with the LEA approach.

The technically feasible post-combustion control technologies for NOx in descending

order of control efficiency are summarized in the following table.

AECI has proposed Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR), which has the highest level for

post-combustion controls. Through review of available technical publications and

information as well as recently permitted and proposed limits contained in the RBLC

and EPA's Modified Coal-Fired Utility Summary Spreadsheet, SCR with LNBs and OFA

has been identified as the most commonly applied and effective technology for the

control of NOx emissions from the boiler. Since AECI has proposed the highest level of

With regards to continuously operated Powder River Basin (PRB) coal-fired pulverized

coal (PC) units, SCR is a relatively new control technology, and there are limited

operating data available to evaluate long-term effectiveness of SCRs. Kansas City

Power &Lights' (KCPL's) Hawthorne Unit 5 ("Hawthorne") is the only new (not

retrofitted) 'PRB coal-fired boiler currently operating in the U.S. which uses SCR

technology. The Hawthorne unit had a permitted limit at 0.12 Ib/MMBTU on a 30-day

rolling average for the first 36 months following initial startup and a permitted limit of

0.08 Ib/mmBTU on a 30-day basis after the 36-month evaluation period. Hawthorne

began operation around May 2001. AECI evaluated Hawthorne's performance for a

period between July 1,2004 through March 31,2005 using the Clean Air Market

database and determined that Hawthorn Unit 5 has achieved 0.079 Ib/MMBTU on a 30-

day rolling average with 95% confidence (95% confidence equates to 2 standard

deviations).

In addition to the Hawthorne unit, W.A. Parish Generating Station in Houston, Texas

also operates year-round subbituminous-fired PC units, Units 5 and 6. These units

have been retrofitted with SCRs and LNBs with OFA. The SCR systems for Units 5 and

6 went into service in April 2003 and January 2003, respectively. Based on data

evaluated by AECI for the period between June 1,2003 and June 30,2005, Parish

Units 5 and 6 have consistently achieved a 30-day rolling average ofC.05 and 0.057

Ib/MMBTU (with 95% confidence), respectively. Additional review by the Air Pollution

Control Program using USEPA's Clean Air Market database showed annual

Based on the above research and analysis along with further evaluation by the Air

Pollution Control Program during the Public Comment phase, the Air Pollution Control

Program contends that the top level of control for operation of a PRB coal-fired boiler

with LNB/OFA and SCR controls is 0.05 Ib/MMBTU on an annual basis. There are no

other boilers either permitted or proposed with a lower limit than 0.05 Ib/MMBTU on an

annual basis. In addition to the annual limit, a 3D-day rolling average is also included.

The 3D-day rolling average was 0.07 Ib/MMBtu in the draft permit, but has been lowered

to 0.065Ib/MMBtu. The addition of a 3D-day limit gives the facility flexibility in day to day

operation and allows for small upset conditions as well as a small upswing toward the

end of catalyst life where they may have some room to plan and allow for the least

environmental unfavorable impact due to end of catalyst conditions. It also ensures that

emission rates on a shorter time basis remain at a low, consistent level.

Pollution Control Program is proposing both a 0.065 Ib/MMBTU 3D-day and an 0.05

Ib/MMBTU 12-month limits, the number of exceedances of a 0.65 Ib/MMBTU limit on a

24-hour basis is significantly limited by the annual limits and therefore a limit on a 24-

hour basis is not included.

The 3D-day and 12-month rolling averages are exclusive of startup and shutdown. In

order to address the NOx emissions emitted during these times of operation, AECI has

proposed a 1,535 ton cap of NOx per year. This is based on an emission rate of 0.051

Ib/MMBTU and a heat input rate of 6,872 mmBtu per hour.

Lastly, AECI expects that the LNB/OFA controls will reduce the NOx concentration in the

flue gas to 250 ppmvd @ 3% O2 which is equivalent to 0.35Ib/MMBTU (on a 3D-day

rolling average basis) under all normal operating conditions on an on-going long-term

basis, including low-load operations. Under optimal operating conditions, the LNB/OFA

is expected to be operated at 140 ppmvd @ 3% 02 which is equivalent to 0.2

Ib/MMBTU. There are technical papers and data available that suggest that the

baseline (inlet to the SCR) of 0.35 Ib/MMBTU is relatively high. However, the percent

removal of NOx is dependent on many variables such as the inlet concentration to the

SCR. In this case, the greater the inlet NOx concentration, the higher the percent

removal of NOx that can be achieved. Therefore, rather than set the NOx limit based on

an inlet concentration and percent removal which can vary Widely depending on the

boiler type, the age of the catalyst, the amount of acceptable ammonia slip, etc., the Air

Pollution Control Program is proposing an annual limit of 0.05 Ib/MMBTU, which is equal

to the most stringent rates being proposed by other facilities and that has been

- 41 -
Permit Withdrawn on 5/12/08 - Not valid for construction or operation

demonstrated on a long-term continuous basis.

AECI conducted an economic evaluation of NOx emission limits ranging from 0.0535 to

0.09 Ib/MMBTU (on a 3D-day rolling average). However, as per the draft of NSR

Workshop manual, in the absence of unusual circumstance, the presumption is that

sources within the same category are similar in nature, and that cost and other impacts

that have been borne by one source of a given source category may be borne by

another source of the same source category." Since AECI has not provided any data

which differentiates this project from previously permitted units which have limits of 0.05

Ib/MMBTU on an annual basis, it is presumed that the costs these systems will incur

can also be incurred by AECI. Therefore, the economic analysis provided by AECI was

not considered in selecting the NOx limit.

Based on the performance data from other plants and NOx BACT limits from other

proposed and permitted units, the Department of Natural Resources proposes a BACT

limit for NOx emissions of 0.05 Ib/MMBTU on 12-month rolling average exclusive of

startup and shutdown. A shorter term BACT limit of 0.065 Ib/MMBtu is also beir:l9

proposed on a 3D-day rolling average (also exclusive of startup and shutdown). This

higher number for the 3D-day rolling average is viewed as acceptable such that it allows

for shorter term variability, especially at end of catalyst life conditions. This level of

control equals the lowest recently permitted facilities and has been demonstrated on at

least two other PC boilers firing PRB coal. In order to address higher emissions that

may occur during startup and shutdown activities, a NOx cap of 1,535 tons per year is

Changes to the S02 BACT analysis for the pulverized coal-fired boiler were made prior

to the issuance of the draft permit. However, these changes were inadvertently left out

of the draft permit. The S02 BACT analysis reflects those changes as well as those

resulting from Public Comments and further evaluation by MDNR.
