EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is reconsidering the National Emission Standards for 

Hazardous Air Pollutants for Major Sources: Industrial, Commercial, and Institutional Boilers and Process 

Heaters (Final Boiler Rule) that were published in the Federal Register (Vol. 76, No. 54, pgs. 15608 to 

15702) on March 21, 2011. EPA has requested the public to submit any additional information

concerning the Final Boiler Rule by July 15, 2011. Accordingly, the Florida Sugar Industry (FSI), working 

together with sugarcane processors in Texas and Hawaii, respectfully submits this report (Updated 

Report) to EPA concerning the bagasse-fired, hybrid suspension grate (HSG) boilers that are regulated 

under the Final Boiler Rule. 

This Updated Report supplements and refines portions of the analyses presented in the FSI’s 2010 

MACT floor analysis for bagasse boilers. This Updated Report focuses on HSG bagasse boilers only, 

and does not address fuel cell type bagasse fired boilers. This Updated Report presents MACT floor 

analyses that are based on a methodology similar to that used by EPA when EPA set the MACT floors in 

the Final Boiler Rule. This Updated Report also includes additional emissions test data that were 

obtained during the past year. In addition, this Updated Report presents a slightly modified methodology 

for establishing the MACT floor for HSG boilers. This modified methodology is being submitted for EPA’s 

consideration because the FSI believes the modified methodology is a better technique for establishing 

the MACT floor in certain cases. 

Table ES-1 presents a summary of the MACT floor emission limits recommended by the FSI for 

particulate matter (PM) and total selected metals (TSM) for existing HSG boilers. As shown in Table ES1, the MACT floor PM emission limit for HSG boilers should be different than the PM limit contained in the 

Final Boiler Rule. The PM and TSM limits for HSG boilers should be based on the emissions data from 

boilers in the HSG subcategory only; the PM and TSM limits for HSG boilers should not be based on the 

emissions data from all of the boilers in the solid fuel category. 

The FSI strongly believes that in cases where adequate data are available for individual boilers, the 

average emissions rate should be used to rank the units, and to determine the top 12 percent or top 5 

best performing units. The average emissions rate is by far the best indicator of the actual performance 

of a source, especially the long-term performance, which in turn is the best indicator of annual HAP 

emissions. Accordingly, the average emissions rate was used to determine the MACT floor for PM 

emissions from existing HSG boilers. 

Table ES-2 presents a summary of the MACT floor emission limits recommended by the FSI for new 

sources in the HSG boiler subcategory. It should be noted that with regard to PM, the top-ranked source 

(Rio Grande Valley No. 6) only has emissions data for three test runs. The FSI respectfully suggests that 

three test runs do not provide an adequate database on which to establish a MACT floor. Therefore, the 

FSI recommends using the top-ranked source with adequate test data, which is U. S. Sugar’s Clewiston

Boiler No. 8. This Clewiston boiler is the second-ranked source by source average and it has much more 

emissions test data, which help account for variability. Accordingly, Table ES-2 identifies the PM 

emission limit that would be established for new HSG sources by using the data for the Clewiston boiler. 

The FSI also supports the use of the 99.9-percent upper prediction limit (UPL) when setting the MACT 

floor for all pollutants emitted by new sources. Since the MACT floor for new sources is based on the 

emissions data from only one source, the emissions database for new sources is much more limited than 

the database used to set the MACT floor for existing units. Consequently, the database used to set the 

MACT floor for new units is not likely to account for variability in operations and emissions. For these 

reasons, the 99.9-percent UPL is needed to properly account for such variability. 

All of these issues are discussed in more detail in the following report.

1.0 INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND INFORMATION

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is developing National Emission Standards for 

Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAPs) for the source category of Industrial, Commercial, and Institutional 

Boilers and Process Heaters (Industrial Boilers). On June 4, 2010, EPA published a proposed rule, 

National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Major Sources: Industrial, Commercial, and 

Institutional Boilers and Process Heaters (Proposed Boiler Rule), in the Federal Register (75 F.R. 107, 

pgs. 32006 to 32073). On March 21, 2011, EPA published its final rule, National Emission Standards for 

Hazardous Air Pollutants for Major Sources: Industrial, Commercial, and Institutional Boilers and Process 

Heaters (Final Boiler Rule), in the Federal Register (76 F.R. 54, pgs. 15608 to 15702).

The Final Boiler Rule was developed in accordance with Section 112 of the Clean Air Act (CAA), which

requires the establishment of NESHAPs for certain existing and new major sources of hazardous air 

pollutants (HAPs). The CAA requires the NESHAP to reflect the maximum degree of reduction in 

emissions of HAPs that is achievable in practice. This level of control is known as the maximum 

achievable control technology (MACT). The minimum level of control allowed for a NESHAP is termed 

the “MACT floor.” The MACT floor for existing sources is the average emission limitation achieved by the 

best-performing 12 percent of existing sources for categories or subcategories with 30 or more sources, 

or the average emission limitation achieved by the best-performing 5 sources for categories or 

subcategories with fewer than 30 sources. The MACT floor for new sources is the emission limitation 

achieved in practice by the best controlled similar source.

The Florida Sugar Industry (FSI)1, working in cooperation with sugarcane processors in Texas and 

Hawaii, requested EPA to create a separate subcategory for bagasse boilers in the NESHAPs for 

Industrial Boilers. In support of this request, the FSI provided EPA with a May 2009 report entitled 

Bagasse Boilers Should be Regulated in a Separate Subcategory under the Boiler MACT Rules Because 

They are a Unique Class of Boilers (Golder, 2009). In July 2010, the FSI submitted an updated and 

revised report (Golder, 2010) to EPA concerning the Proposed Boiler Rule.

To further support the FSI’s request for a separate subcategory, in June 2009 the FSI provided EPA with 

an analysis entitled MACT Floor Analysis for Bagasse-Fired Boilers. The FSI’s analysis determined the 

MACT floor emission limits for bagasse boilers, based on the methodologies developed by EPA for the 

proposed Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sources and Emissions Guidelines for Existing 

Sources: Hospital/Medical/Infectious Waste Incinerator (HMIWI). 73 F.R. 231, pgs. 72962 to 73003 

(December 1, 2008). EPA had previously recommended this methodology as the appropriate

The Florida Sugar Industry (FSI) is comprised of sugarcane processors located in south Florida. These processors harvest 

sugarcane to produce raw and/or refined sugar. The FSI operates industrial boilers fired primarily by bagasse, which is a co-product 

of the sugarcane processing operations. Very limited amounts of fossil fuel may also be burned in the FSI’s boilers. The FSI also is 

coordinating the submittal of this report with sugarcane processors located in Hawaii and Texas.

methodology for developing MACT floor emission limits for the Industrial Boiler rule. However, the 

method used to calculate the MACT floor limits for the HMIWI rule was subsequently modified, and the 

MACT floor calculations in the Proposed Boiler Rule (published on June 4, 2010) followed the revised 

methodology.

The FSI then submitted a revised MACT floor analysis entitled MACT Floor Analysis for Bagasse Boiler

Subcategory to EPA in August 2010. The MACT floor analysis in that document was based on the 

methodology used in the Proposed Boiler Rule, as well as alternative methodologies that were proposed 

by the FSI. 

On March 21, 2011, EPA published the Final Boiler Rule in the Federal Register. On the same day, EPA 

announced in the Federal Register that EPA would reconsider certain aspects of the rule. In a letter 

notice published on May 18, 2011, EPA stayed the effective date of the Final Boiler Rule until either the 

reconsideration process or the judicial proceeding concerning the Final Boiler Rule is completed, 

whichever occurs first. EPA also requested that any additional information concerning the Final Boiler 

Rule be submitted to EPA by July 15, 2011.

This report updates, supplements, and refines the FSI’s August 2010 MACT floor analysis for bagassefired boilers. The analyses in this report (Updated Report) are based on the methodologies used by EPA 

in the Final Boiler Rule issued on March 21, 2011, except where otherwise noted. This Updated Report 

also provides additional PM test data from the past year for HSG boilers. In addition, this report presents 

a slightly modified methodology for determining the MACT floor. This modified methodology is being 

proposed for EPA’s consideration because the FSI believes the modified methodology is a better 

technique for setting the MACT floor in certain cases. 

This Updated Report identifies the emission limits that should be adopted by EPA in the Final Boiler Rule 

for the emissions of PM from new and existing HSG boilers. This Updated Report also identifies the 

alternative TSM standard that should be adopted by EPA for HSG boilers. 

This analysis determines the MACT floor emission limits for existing and new HSG bagasse-fired boilers 

located at major sources of HAPs. Historical emissions data for each of the FSI mill boilers, Hawaiian 

Commercial and Sugar Company’s (HCSC’s) Puunene sugar mill boilers, and the newest boiler at the Rio 

Grande Valley Sugar Growers, Inc (RGVSG) sugar mill in Texas, were used in the revised MACT floor 

analysis for HSG bagasse-fired boilers, as listed below:

 U.S. Sugar Corporation (USSC) Boiler Nos. 1, 2, 4, 7, and 8.

 Sugar Cane Growers Cooperative of Florida (SCGCF) Boiler Nos. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 8.

 Osceola Farms Company (OFC) Boiler Nos. 2, 3, and 6.

boilers, as well as the results for the individual pollutants analyzed.

2.0 STATISTICAL ANALYSIS

In this Updated Report, the MACT floor emissions limits for bagasse boilers that are located at major 

sources were determined by using the methodologies presented in the Final Boiler Rule published in the 

Federal Register on March 21, 2011. Additionally, the FSI used the supporting technical methodology

that is presented in the January 2011 ERG memorandum entitled “Revised MACT Floor Analysis (2011) 

for the Industrial, Commercial, and Institutional Boilers and Process Heaters National Emission Standards 

for Hazardous Air Pollutants – Major Source” (ERG Memo). Alternative methods for statistical analysis 

are also discussed below as potential options for calculating the MACT floor.

The Final Boiler Rule provides emission limits for boilers based on fuel type and boiler design. For fuelbased HAPs, the ERG Memo states

“Because emissions of fuel-based HAP (e.g., Hg, acid gases, filterable particulate) 

depend on the fuel used rather than the design of the combustion chamber, MACT floors 

for fuel-based HAP were based on data from all boilers and process heaters firing a 

minimum threshold of each fuel group.” (pg.5)

The fuel-based HAP emission limits in the Final Boiler Rule (PM, HCL, and Hg) are subcategorized by the 

following fuel types: solid, liquid, and other process gases. For the remaining combustion-based (non 

fuel-based) pollutants (i.e., organic HAPs: CO and D/F), the Final Boiler Rule further subcategorizes 

affected boilers based on boiler design. For solid fuel fired boilers, the Final Boiler Rule subcategorizes 

CO and D/F emission limits for the following boiler types: pulverized coal, fluidized bed, and stoker/other 

for units designed to burn coal and other solid fossil fuel; and stoker/sloped grate/other, fluidized bed, 

dutch oven/suspension, fuel cells, and HSG for units designed to burn biomass.

HSG boilers burning bagasse boilers exhibit several distinctive design, operating, and emission 

characteristics. These distinctive features are necessitated by the bagasse fuel. Due to the unique class 

and type of industrial boiler operated by the sugar industry, a separate subcategory was developed by 

EPA and that subcategory includes combustion-based HAP standards.

The methodology used by EPA to determine the MACT standards generally consists of the following 

steps:

1. Screen and select data – Determine appropriate dataset by reviewing emissions data 

for appropriate test method; removing data for shutdown boilers or emissions no longer 

representative of current operation; review submitted data for errors in the database.

2. Rank sources - for each subcategory from lowest to highest for each pollutant.

3. Identifying the MACT floor pool - consisting of the best-performing (lowest emissions) 

12 percent of units if the source category has 30 or more sources, or the best-performing 

5 units if the subcategory has fewer than 30 sources.

Y:\Projects\2011\113-87508 FSI\MACT Floor Analysis\Final\MACT_Floor_Analysis_Rpt.docx

4. Determine the distribution - of each dataset by conducting small-sample hypothesis 

test using the calculated skewness and kurtosis statistics.

5. Determine statistical variability - Calculate the 99-percent upper prediction limit (UPL) 

based on the test run data for units in the MACT floor pool.

6. Determine fuel analysis variability – Fuel analysis data for fuel-based HAPs (HCl and 

Hg) are analyzed and compared to emissions rates from the corresponding units. Using 

the calculated control efficiency, fuel variability factors are calculated and used for coal, 

biomass, and liquid fuels.

7. Determine load variability – For combustion- based emissions, continuous emission 

monitoring system (CEMS) data (if available) are analyzed to determine variability due to 

boiler load.

8. Calculate Emissions Limits – MACT floor emission limits are determined for each 

pollutant for each subcategory.

With regard to the reconsideration of the Final Boiler Rule, EPA has requested comments on the various 

statistical approaches used by EPA to determine the MACT floor. Accordingly, this Updated Report 

discusses the various methodologies that were used by the FSI to determine the MACT floor for HSG 

boilers.

2.1 Data Screening and Selection

In this Updated Report, the FSI used updated historical stack test data for PM, including this past year’s 

compliance test data, for each of the bagasse boilers that were evaluated in the MACT floor analysis for 

HSG boilers. The boilers included in this analysis were:

 USSC Boiler Nos. 1, 2, 4, 7, and 8.

 SCGCF Boiler Nos. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 8.

 OFC Boiler Nos. 2, 3, and 6.

 HCSC Puunene Mill Boiler Nos. 1, 2, and 3. Puunene Mill Boiler Nos. 1 and 2 share a 

common stack and were therefore analyzed as one source.

 RGVSG Boiler No. 6.

The emissions data used for the current analysis are identical to the data previously submitted to EPA 

during the rulemaking process, but the current analysis also includes additional recent PM data. All 

available data representative of current operating conditions, (i.e., data from the last 12 years for most 

boilers) were used in the analysis. All data used in this analysis is included in the appendices to this 

report. 

2.2 Source Ranking and MACT Pool

After the appropriate data were screened and selected for each source, the boilers were then ranked from 

lowest to highest emissions, based on the average emissions for each of the subject pollutants for each 
July 2011 6 113-87508

Y:\Projects\2011\113-87508 FSI\MACT Floor Analysis\Final\MACT_Floor_Analysis_Rpt.docx

boiler. To develop the MACT pool for the Final Boiler Rule, EPA identified the lowest emissions test 

average (3-run test mean) for each pollutant for each boiler. In the preamble to the Final Boiler Rule, 

EPA stated that it has reasonably determined that the best-controlled source is the source with the lowest 

stack test. EPA selected the lowest stack test as a measure of a best performer because many units had 

only a single test available, and the comparison of average performance from two or more tests is not 

directly comparable to a single test. The ERG Memo also states that EPA ranked the emission sources 

based on the lowest 3-run test average, rather than the overall average of all test runs for each boiler.

FSI continues to believe that it is not appropriate to use the lowest 3-run test average as the basis for 

ranking and identifying the top 12 percent. FSI respectfully requests EPA to reconsider this aspect of the 

methodology used to determine the MACT floor for the Final Boiler Rule. Any boiler can experience a 

particularly good compliance test, based on a variety of factors that may not be replicated on a normal 

basis. However, a single compliance test is not indicative of how a boiler performs on a daily basis or 

over a longer time period, such as a year. EPA stated in the preamble to the Final Boiler Rule that 

“However, where units had more than one test available, EPA also considers these other tests to 

be representative of the unit and relevant to assess run-to-run and test-to-test variability in the 

MACT floor UPL calculation.” 

76 FR pg. 15627. 

FSI believes that this variability must be taken into account in order to identify the “best-performing” 12 

percent of sources; otherwise, a source may be identified incorrectly as top-performing.

FSI believes that the average of all emissions tests, representative of current operation, provides a more 

appropriate basis for determining the top 12-percent of the MACT pool for each pollutant. Therefore, for 

the purposes of this Updated Report, boilers were ranked using the following two scenarios for each 

pollutant:

 By lowest 3-run average emissions (EPA/ERG method)

 By the average of all emissions tests representative of current operation (FSI’s proposed 

method)

Using the top-ranked (lowest emission) average values, the “MACT pool” of top performing boilers was 

established for each pollutant under each scenario. The HSG boiler subcategory contains fewer than 30 

sources for each pollutant analyzed. Therefore, the top performing 5 sources for each pollutant were 

chosen for the MACT pool. The results of each method are presented separately for each pollutant in 

Sections 3.0 and 4.0.

2.3 Data Distribution

Prior to calculating the MACT floor for HSG boilers, the distribution of the emissions test data for the best 

performing sources was evaluated using small-sample hypothesis testing, consistent with the 

methodology used in the Final Boiler Rule. The small-sample hypothesis test was performed using the 

“skewness” (S) and “kurtosis” (K) statistics. The skewness statistic (S) was calculated to characterize the 

degree of asymmetry of the distribution of each MACT pool pollutant dataset. Normally distributed data 

have a skewness of zero. A skewness statistic that is greater or less than zero indicates that the data are 

asymmetrically distributed with a right or left tail. To conduct a small sample skewness hypothesis test, 

the standard error of the skewness statistic (SES) was determined. The SES is given by:

 

 

 

where: N = sample size

If S is greater than two times the SES, the data distribution can be considered non-normal.

Next the kurtosis statistic (K) was calculated to characterize the degree of peakedness or flatness of the 

distribution of each MACT pool pollutant dataset. Data with a normal distribution will have a K of zero. A 

K that is greater or less than zero indicates a relatively peaked or flat distribution. To conduct the small 

sample kurtosis hypothesis test, the standard error K (SEK) was calculated. The SEK is given by:

 

 

 

where: N = sample size

If K is greater than two times the SEK, the data distribution is considered to be non-normal.

In accordance with the methodology used by EPA for the Final Boiler Rule, the skewness and kurtosis 

hypothesis tests were applied to the reported emissions test values for the MACT pool for each pollutant. 

The data set was considered normally distributed if S and K of the MACT pool emissions were less than 

twice the SES and SEK, respectively. If either the S or K were greater than twice the SES or SEK, each 

hypothesis test was conducted for the natural log transformed data.

The MACT floor limit was calculated using the dataset (reported data or natural-log transformed data) 

determined most similar to normal. To be conservative, the reported value dataset was selected as the 

basis for the MACT floor calculations in the case where both the reported values and the natural-log 

transformed reported values had S and K that were greater than twice the SES or SEK.

2.4 MACT Floor Calculation Methodology

Several methodologies have been used or proposed to calculate the standards for recent MACT 

rulemaking efforts. The Final Boiler Rule uses the 99-percent UPL to set the MACT floor for PM, Hg, HCl, 

and D/F. The proposed MACT floor for the HMIWI NESHAP was calculated using the 99.9-percent UPL, 

but was revised to the 99-percent UPL in the final HMIWI rule (see July 2, 2009 Memorandum entitled

Revised MACT Floors, Data Variability Analysis, and Emission Limits for Existing and New HMIWI). The 

proposed MACT floor for the Portland Cement NESHAP was calculated using a modified prediction limit, 

slightly different than the methodology used in the Proposed Boiler Rule, which accounts for within-source 

variance and between-source variance (see Development of the MACT Floors for the Proposed NESHAP 

for Portland Cement, April 15, 2009). The MACT floor for the final Hazardous Waste Combustor 

NESHAP was calculated by ranking sources based on the upper 99th percentiles and using the 

99-percent UPL ( see Technical Support Document for HWC MACT Standards, Volume III: Selection of 

MACT Standards, September 2005.)

For the purpose of the analyses in this Updated Report, the MACT floor was calculated in a manner 

consistent with the Proposed and Final Boiler Rules, by using the 99 percent and 99.9 percent UPL. The 

following sections discuss each approach.

2.4.1 Upper Prediction Limit

To account for statistical variability in calculating the MACT floor for each pollutant, EPA used the 99-

percent UPL for the Final Boiler Rule, except for CO, where EPA used the 99.9 percent UPL. According 

to the ERG Memo, the UPL method used by EPA represents the statistical likelihood that the mean of 

three future emission test values from the average source in the best-performing 12 percent of sources, 

will fall at or below the emission limit.

The 99-percent UPL is calculated, for the datasets determined to be normally distributed, using the 

following equation:

where:

 = Average of all the best performing MACT pool source test runs

 

 

 

 

 

 

 = The individual test run values for each source in the MACT pool

= Standard deviation of all best performing MACT pool source test runs

= Number of total test runs in the best performing MACT pool

t(0.99,n-1) = student’s t-statistic, evaluated at 99 percent confidence calculated using 

the following Microsoft Excel equation:

TINV(2*(1-0.99),n-1)

m = The number of test runs in the compliance average = 3

For log-normally distributed datasets, a complex set of equations are used to calculate the 99-percent 

UPL, based upon a Bhaumik and Gibbons 2004 paper, which calculates “An Upper Prediction Limit for 

the Arithmetic Mean of a Lognormal Random Variable.” See Appendix D for excerpts from the EPA/ERG 

Memo that presents these equations. 

In this Updated Report, the 99-percent UPL was used to calculate the MACT floor standards with the 

appropriate data set for each pollutant. The MACT floor for each pollutant was determined by rounding 

up the UPL values less than 100 to one significant figure, UPL values between 100 and 1,000 to two 

significant figures, and UPL values greater than or equal to 1,000 to three significant figures. This 

methodology was used to calculate the MACT floor for each of the subject pollutants emitted by the HSG 

boilers.

Since the proposed 99-percent confidence interval is applied to all HAPs for which emission limits are 

proposed, the combined probability of achieving the set of limits drops to 95 percent. A confidence 

interval of 95 percent is inappropriately low when facilities are required to demonstrate compliance 100 

percent of the time. Therefore, for this analysis, the MACT floor was also calculated for each pollutant 

using the 99.9-percent UPL.

The 99.9-percent UPL calculated for HSG boilers was determined in accordance with the methodology 

presented above using the student’s t-statistic, evaluated at 99.9 percent confidence. The student’s tstatistic, evaluated at 99.9-percent confidence was calculated using the following Microsoft Excel 

equation:

t(0.999,n-1) = TINV(2*(1-0.999),n-1)

2.4.2 Fuel Analysis Variability

The UPL and UTL methodologies presented above account for intra-unit variability within test runs. Since 

emissions of fuel-based HAPs (hydrogen chloride, mercury (Hg), and metals) are dependent on the 

concentration of the pollutants in the fuel, additional variability was accounted for based on historic fuel 

analyses. 

For the Final Boiler Rule, EPA/ERG accounted for fuel variability in the MACT floor for mercury and HCl. 

EPA/ERG identified HAP fuel analysis data corresponding to HAP stack test data, and compared the fuel 

data to fuel data taken at other times (i.e., non-stack test times). A simple ratio was determined, which 

was then applied to the calculated emission limit using the stack test data. To be consistent with the Final 

Boiler Rule, a similar methodology was used in this Updated Report when calculating the MACT floor for 

HSG boilers. 

Fuel analysis data for total non-mercury HAP metals (10 metals total, or TSM) were standardized to a 

lb/MMBtu basis using the measured fuel concentration (ppm) for each HAP and the measured heating 

value for the bagasse fuel (i.e., British thermal units per pound (Btu/lb)). However, no concurrent fuel 

analysis data are available for comparison with the actual emissions test data used to calculate the MACT 

floor. Therefore, the 90 percent confidence level of the fuel content for TSM was compared to the 

average HAP emission rate for each unit to determine an appropriate correction factor. The fuel 

variability factor for each unit was then determined using the following equation:

 

 

 

where:

90% Confidence Level Maximum Fuel EF= the 90% confidence level of the fuel 

analysis data for the unit (lb/MMBtu)

Average Fuel ER = Average fuel content from fuel analysis for the unit 

(lb/MMBtu)

To calculate the MACT floor emission limit for TSM, the calculated UPL emission limit based on stack test 

data was multiplied by the maximum fuel variability factor for any unit in the MACT floor pool (top 5 

sources).

3.0 MACT FLOOR RESULTS FOR EXISTING SOURCES

The MACT floor analysis was performed for the HSG bagasse boiler subcategory using each of the 

statistical analysis methodologies discussed above, as well as additional scenarios. The following 

scenarios were analyzed:

 MACT pool determined by ranking sources based on the lowest 3-run average emission 

rate

 MACT pool determined by ranking sources based on the average of all emissions test 

representative of current operation

 MACT floor calculated using the 99-percent UPL

 MACT floor calculated using the 99.9-percent UPL

The results of each MACT floor analysis scenario and the corresponding calculations are presented in 

Appendix A. Historical stack testing results used for the MACT floor analysis for each of the bagasse 

boilers, including updated 2010-2011 compliance test data, are presented in Appendix C. The following 

sections summarize the results of the MACT floor analysis for existing HSG bagasse boilers.

3.1 Particulate Matter

Particulate matter (PM) emission limits have been promulgated in the Final Boiler Rule as a surrogate for 

non-mercury metallic HAPs. PM emissions data for the last consecutive 11 years of compliance stack 

testing for each of the bagasse boilers was included in the analysis. The PM emission limits presented in 

the Final Boiler Rule are based on the thermal emission rate (i.e., lb/MMBtu heat input).

For the first statistical methodology used in this Updated Report, the overall average emission rate for 

each boiler was calculated in units of lb/MMBtu, and the MACT pool was established. The top five 

performing sources were determined by using the average of all emission tests from each boiler, as 

presented in the table below:

Next the data set for the MACT pool were analyzed using the small-sample hypothesis test. As 

presented below, the natural log transformed data show the most normal distribution:

For each statistical analysis method, the calculated MACT floor for PM was determined by rounding 

up to two significant figures. For sources ranked by the average of all test runs, the results of the 

MACT floor analysis are as follows:

 99-percent UPL = 0.32 lb/MMBtu

 99.9-percent UPL = 0.37 lb/MMBtu

The statistical analysis and MACT pool were also determined based on ranking boilers by the lowest 3-

run test average for each source. The top five performing sources, determined by using the lowest 3-run 

average emission test results, are presented in the table below:

Otherwise, the MACT source pool remained the same. This data set was then analyzed using the smallsample hypothesis test. As presented below, the natural log transformed data showed the most normal

For each statistical analysis method, the calculated MACT floor for PM was determined by rounding up to 

two significant figures. For sources ranked by 3-run test average, the results of the MACT floor analysis 

are as follows:
July 2011 14 113-87508

Y:\Projects\2011\113-87508 FSI\MACT Floor Analysis\Final\MACT_Floor_Analysis_Rpt.docx

 99-percent UPL = 0.49 lb/MMBtu

 99.9-percent UPL = 0.56 lb/MMBtu

Detailed rankings are presented in Appendix A. The stack test data used in the analysis for each boiler 

are also presented in Appendix A.

For the HSG subcategory, we believe it is appropriate to determine the MACT floor by (a) using the 99-

percent UPL and (b) establishing a source ranking based on the source’s average emissions. This 

approach results in a MACT floor for PM of 0.32 lb/MMBtu. As stated previously, ranking of sources 

based on the source average is a better indicator of the top-performing 12 percent of sources. Although 

the MACT floor calculated using the lowest 3-run test average (0.49 lb/MMBtu) is higher than the floor 

based on ranking by source average, several existing bagasse boilers have permit limits for PM that are 

lower than 0.49 lb/MMBtu. These permit limits, however, must only be met with a once per year stack 

test. If PM CEMS are required, the emission limits in the Final Boiler Rule will have to be complied with 

on a continuous basis and the PM emission limits will need to be revised to account for the use of CEMS 

as a compliance method. As noted previously, the FSI strongly objects to the use of PM CEMS because 

the PM emission limits in the Final Boiler Rule are not based on CEMS data and thus those emission 

limits do not adequately account for variability. 

3.2 Total Selected Metals

The non-mercury HAP or total selected metals (TSM) identified in the Proposed Boiler Rule include: 

arsenic, beryllium, cadmium, chromium, lead, manganese, nickel, selenium, cobalt, and antimony. In lieu 

of setting a numerical emission standard for the non-mercury metal HAPs, the Final Boiler Rule provides 

an emission standard for PM under the assumption that the equipment used to control PM will also limit 

emissions of non-mercury HAP metals. TSM emissions are categorized as fuel-based HAPs because the 

metals emitted from combustion are contained in the fuel. Fuel analyses show that bagasse has a 

relatively low concentration of HAP metals. Therefore, the proportion of HAP metals to PM emissions is 

lower for HSG bagasse-fired boilers than for boilers firing other types of solid fuel.

Emissions of TSM consisting of eight metals (arsenic, beryllium, cadmium, chromium, lead, manganese, 

nickel, and selenium) were previously tested for one FSI bagasse boiler. TSM emission testing has also 

been completed for the Puunene Mill boilers. 

The Proposed Boiler Rule included evaluation of two additional metal HAP pollutants: cobalt and 

antimony. No emissions data from FSI boilers are available for cobalt and antimony. However, one FSI 

mill and the Hawaiian mill conducted fuel testing to determine the concentration of cobalt and antimony in 
July 2011 15 113-87508

Y:\Projects\2011\113-87508 FSI\MACT Floor Analysis\Final\MACT_Floor_Analysis_Rpt.docx

bagasse. The concentrations of these two metals in bagasse are very low, and they only comprised less 

than 4 percent of the TSM (10-metal sum) in the bagasse, based on a total of fifteen (15) separate 

bagasse samples. 

The Final Boiler Rule provides only a PM emission limit, which is intended to act as a surrogate for nonmercury HAP metals. FSI believes that an emission limit for TSM should be provided as an option in the 

Final Boiler Rule. Since the FSI’s HSG boilers burn a fuel that is naturally low in non-Hg metallic HAPs, 

the PM emission limits in the Final Boiler Rule are not necessary to control HAPs emitted from those HSG 

boilers, and the PM emissions limits will severely and unnecessarily burden the FSI. Indeed, virtually all 

of the FSI’s HSG boilers will need to install an electrostatic precipitator to comply with the Final Boiler

Rule, but the installation of this new air pollution control equipment will have little effect on the HAPs 

emissions from the FSI’s HSG boilers.

3.2.1 MACT Floor Analysis

For this Updated Report, all of the available data for emissions of HAP metals were analyzed (4 boilers in 

total). The HAP metal MACT floor analysis is based on the thermal emission rate in lb/MMBtu, similar to 

the proposed emission limit for mercury.

The overall average emission rate for each HSG boiler was calculated in units of lb/MMBtu, and the 

MACT pool was established. Sources are ranked by the average of all emission tests in the table below:

TSM MACT Source Pool

3 Puunene Boiler No. 3 2.48E-04

4 SCGCF Boiler No. 8 2.73E-04

Since Puunene Boiler Nos. 1 and 2 are part of the MACT pool of best performing sources for TSM 

emissions, the data for these two boilers are used as if there were two separate sources when calculating 

the MACT floor, consistent with the approach used by EPA for the Final Boiler Rule. This data set was 

then analyzed using the small-sample hypothesis test. As presented below, the reported test data are the 

closest to a normal distribution:

T-statistic (99.9%) 3.55 4.29

99.9% UPL 4.34E-04 5.25E-04

For each statistical analysis method, the calculated MACT floor for TSM was determined by rounding up 

to two significant figures. The results of the MACT floor analysis, considering Puunene Boiler Nos. 1 and 

2 as two sources, are as follows:

 99-percent UPL = 3.7x10-4lb/MMBtu

 99.9-percent UPL = 4.3x10-4lb/MMBtu

Since only 4 sources have TSM test data, the MACT floor calculated using the minimum 3-run test 

average methodology is identical to that calculated for sources ranked using the overall source average of 

all emissions tests.

3.2.2 Fuel Variability

The UPL calculations above account for intra-unit variability within test runs, but do not account for fuel 

variability. In addition to the MACT floor calculations presented above, FSI has calculated the UPL to 

account for fuel variability. Several sets of TSM fuel analysis data are available for eight metals for each 

of the FSI mills. The same fuel analysis data were used for each boiler at its respective mill. Recent fuel 

analysis data are also available for TSM for ten metals (including antimony and cobalt) from two mills. 
July 2011 17 113-87508

Y:\Projects\2011\113-87508 FSI\MACT Floor Analysis\Final\MACT_Floor_Analysis_Rpt.docx

These data were used to estimate a percentage of the 10-metal TSM that is comprised of antimony and 

cobalt. The above MACT floors were then adjusted further to estimate the 10-metal TSM MACT floor.

The maximum of the fuel variability factors is calculated to be 1.2. The calculated 99-percent UPL 

and 99.9-percent UPL are 3.71x10-4and 4.34x10-4lb/MMBtu, respectively. Applying the variability 

factor to the above statistics, as well as adding 4 percent to account for antimony and cobalt, gives 

the following MACT floor calculations, which account for fuel variability and a 10-metal TSM limit:

 99% UPL = 4.4x10-4lb/MMBtu

 99.9% UPL = 5.2x10-4lb/MMBtu

Detailed statistical calculations are presented in Appendix B. The stack test data used in the analysis for 

each boiler are presented in Appendix B. Detailed fuel variability calculations are presented in 

Appendix C.

For the bagasse boiler subcategory, we believe it is appropriate to calculate the MACT floor for TSM by 

using the 99-percent UPL, due to the availability of test data. Therefore, the appropriate MACT floor for 

TSM emissions from HSG boilers is 4.4x10-4lb/MMBtu.

3.3 Summary

Table 3-1 presents a summary of the MACT floor emission limits that are recommended by the FSI for 

existing bagasse-fired sources in the HSG boiler subcategory. The recommended emission limits are 

based on the analyses described in this Updated Report. The MACT floor emission limits contained in 

the Final Boiler Rule for the HSG boiler category also are shown in Table 3-1. The MACT floor limits 

recommended by the FSI for the HSG subcategory are much different than the corresponding emission 

limits contained in the Final Boiler Rule. The discrepancy between the two sets of emission limits 

demonstrates the need to establish PM and TSM limits for HSG boilers that are based solely on the

emissions data for such boilers. 

The FSI strongly believes that in cases where adequate data is available, the source average should be 

used to rank the units and to determine the top 12 percent or top 5 sources. The source average is by far 

the best indicator of the performance of a source, especially the long-term performance, which is the best 

indicator of HAP emissions. The MACT floor limits presented in Table 3-1 for existing HSG boilers are 

actually lower than or equal to the MACT floor based on the ranking of the lowest 3-run average.

4.0 MACT FLOOR FOR NEW SOURCES

The MACT floor analysis presented in Section 3.0 determines the MACT emission limits for existing 

sources. The new source MACT floor is based on the best performing similar unit, unless the calculated 

MACT floor emission limit for the best performing MACT pool source is higher than the existing source 

MACT floor emission limit. In this case, the new source floor is capped at the existing source floor level.

In this Updated Report, the same methodology was used to calculate the MACT floor for new sources as 

was used to calculate the MACT floor for existing sources (i.e., 99-percent UPL and 99.9-percent UPL) 

using the top performing source data. The estimated MACT floor limits for new HSG bagasse boilers, 

calculated for each pollutant, are summarized in Table 4-1. The initial limits based on stack test data are 

shown, as well as those adjusted for fuel variability.

Given the specific facts concerning HSG boilers, the FSI believes the MACT floor limit for PM should be

based on the second-best performing source. This is the most appropriate method to set the MACT floor 

for PM because we only have test data for three test runs conducted on the best performing source (Rio 

Grande Boiler No. 6). We do not believe three test runs are an adequate database on which to establish 

a MACT floor. Therefore, the FSI recommends establishing the MACT floor by using the top-performing 

source with adequate test data. This approach will bring a source (USSC Boiler No. 8) with much greater 

emissions test data into the MACT floor analysis. 

The FSI also recommends using the 99.9-percent UPL for all pollutants when establishing the MACT floor 

for new units. For new sources, only one source is used to set the floor; therefore, the emissions data are 

much more limited than the data used to set the MACT floor for existing sources. The 99.9-percent UPL 

is needed to account for variability. Since USSC Boiler No. 8 is one of the newest bagasse boilers, its 

performance and variability should be representative of the best performing source. 

For TSM, the calculated new source MACT floor (5.2x10-4lb/MMBtu, based on 99.9-percent UPL) is 

higher than the MACT floor calculated for existing sources (4.4x10-4lb/MMBtu). Therefore, with regard to 

TSM, the MACT floor for new HSG sources should be set at the MACT floor for existing HSG sources..

The MACT floor emission limit for PM for new HSG sources, as set forth in the Final Boiler Rule, is shown 

in Table 4-1. The MACT floor calculations for PM and TSM emissions from new HSG sources, as 

described in this Updated Report, are presented in the appendices.

Footnotes:

1

 Assumed 3,600 Btu/lb average heat content for wet bagasse, except where noted.

2

 Based on actual reported data.

3

 If reported as propane, it was converted to carbon by the following equation:

 lbs/hr as carbon= lbs/hr as propane x ((3*12.011)/44.09) 

 where 44.09 is the MW of propane and 12.011 is the MW of carbon.

 If reported as methane, it was converted to carbon by the following equation:

 lbs/hr as carbon= lbs/hr as methane x (12.011/16.04) 

 where 16.04 is the MW of methane and 12.011 is the MW of carbon.

4

 As reported in test report.

5

 If necessary, converted basis to as carbon.

6 Firing fuel oil concurrently with bagasse.

7

 Run 1 was excluded from the averages due to boiler upset during the run.

8

Footnotes:

1

 Assumed 3,600 Btu/lb average heat content for wet bagasse, except where noted.

2

 Based on actual reported data.

3

 If reported as propane, it was converted to carbon by the following equation:

 lbs/hr as carbon= lbs/hr as propane x ((3*12.011)/44.09) 

 where 44.09 is the MW of propane and 12.011 is the MW of carbon.

 If reported as methane, it was converted to carbon by the following equation:

 lbs/hr as carbon= lbs/hr as methane x (12.011/16.04) 

 where 16.04 is the MW of methane and 12.011 is the MW of carbon.

4

 As reported in test report.

5

 If necessary, converted basis to as carbon.

6 THC reported as dry concentration.

 For concentrations that are reported as below detection limit the minimum, maximum, average, and standard deviation were calculated by taking the detection limit. Duplicate samples were not included in the calculations.

b Minimum, maximum, average, and standard deviation for mercury are based on detection limit.

c

 90% confidence level calculated based on the following equation [40 CFR 63.7530(d)(2)]:

P90 = mean + (SD * t); 

where:

P90 = 90% confidence level pollutant concentration (lb/MMBtu)
