INTRODUCTION
A cooperative test program was conducted by Duke Power and the
Emission Testing Branch personnel at the Lee Steam Station, Duke
Power Company, located in Pelzer, S.C.. The tests were conducted
February 2-4, 1971. The purpose of the tests was to determine
emission levels from controlled power plants to assist in estab-
lishing new Federal Source Performance Standards. .
Measurements of total particu'Iates and NO were made at the outlet
A
of the hot side precip-itatbr-(See Figure 1) by Source Testing
Section personnel .-_us-ing-.APCO methods. Observations of visible
emissiฃHs--jiejre--a1s6 made~by a member of the Emission Testing Itean.ch.___
Total particulates were measured by Duke Power personnel using the
ASME Power Test Code 27 method at both the inlet and outlet of the
precipitator to determine the collection efficiency of the precipitator
and to compare the outlet results with those obtained by the APCO method.
Pertinent results are listed "in Tables I thru IV. Complete results
are listed in the Appendix of this report. -..-.

II. SUMMARY OF RESULTS . ...
Participate results ranged from 0.14 GR/SCF to 0.26 gr/SCF by the
APCO method considering the catch in the front portion of the train
only (from the nozzle up to and including the filter). ASME results
ranged from 0.04 GR/SCF to 0.13 GR/SCF.
NO emissions varied from an average of 246 ppm to 278 ppm.
A
Visible emissions did not exceed 10% opacity. Soot blowing had no
noticeable effect on"ttfe 'opacity of the plume. '. . - -

The tests were conducted on the emissions from Unit #1 at the Lee Steam
Station. Unit ;^1 has a Combustion Engineering 750,000 lbs./hr., triple
drum, natural circulation, tangentially fired boiler. This boiler produces
the steam to drive a General Electric 90 MW hydrogen cooled turbine -
generator.

IV. LOCATION OF SAMPLING POINTS.
The two 9' X 12' precipitator outlet ducts were divided into 45 equal
areas for velocity traverses and particulate sampling by the APCO method.
The south duct was Tabled "A" and the north duct (nearest the river)"B'.'
Each duct.had 5 equally spaced sampling ports along the 1Z' length. The
9' width was divided into 9 equal spaces thus forming the 45 equal areas
(Figure 3).

V. PROCESS OPERATION . -.' , ' ' ' . ".' ''-''. v /.', .^-- ':'.'.
Pulverized coal is tangentially fired into a triple drum boiler to
f
producer steam. The steam produced is used to drive a 90 MW turbine- )
generator. Normally the unit is operated so as to produce about 110 MW
of electricity, burning approximately 40 tons of pulverized coal per hour.
. 11
-------
The gaseous emissions from the boiler are directed through a hot side
precipitator to control participate emissions. From the precipitator
the gases exit through a stack.
Soot is removed from the system by blowing steam when and where needed.
Process operation was as normal during Runs Number 1 and 2 except that
soot blowing was eliminated. Run- Number 3 incorporated soot blowing as
normal to see if any increase in emissions could be detected.
VI. SAMPLING AND ANALYTICAL.PROCEDURES- ' '
A. flo-is-ture_Deterinination" . ~ซ~~- .
Per cent moisture in the stack gas was determined by pulling a
measured volume of stack gas through a heated probe and into a
preweighed midget impinger containing 15 mis. of water and sitting
in an ice bucket. The per cent moisture was calculated from the
gain in weight of the impinger due to the water collected, and the
volume of gas pulled through the impinger. A schematic of the
moisture train is shown in r-'igure 5.

8. Velocity Traverse
Velocity pressure and temperature measurements were taken in the
center of each of the 45 areas shown fn Figure 3 by Source Test
Section personnel. The velocity pressure was measured using an
S-type pi tot tube and oil manometer, and the temperature determined
using a chromaJ.-alumel thermocouple connected to a potentiometer.
Velocity,;gressure and temperature measurements were made at_the
center of each of 10 equal, areas in each inlet duct and the center
of each of the 15 equal areas (Figure 4) in the outlet ducts by
Duke Power personnel.
Velocity pressures were measured using a standard pitot tube
connected to an oil manometer. Temperatures were measured using
a thermocouple connected to a potentiometer.
13
-------
C. Particulate Sampling -'APCO Train
The APCO participate sampling train (Figure 6) consists of a
stainless steel nozzle (l),an Incoloy 825-10' probe (2), a cyclone
(4), and a filter holder (5) in a heated section (6) of the sample
box. The filter holder contained a 2 1/4" glass fiber filter (MSA
1106 BH). Beyond the filter was a modified Greenburg-Smith impinger
(8) containing 100 ml. H^O, a second Greenburg-Smith impinger not
modified (9) containing 100 ml. H?0, a third impinger (10) of the
modified Greenburg-Smith design left dry, and a fourth modified
Greenburg-Smith imp-inger -(11 ) containing approximately 175 grams
of accurately we_ighed_Jndieating silica gel. The impingers are
. JDijied-by_glass connectors and are in the ice bath section^?) of
the sample box. , .. " .
The sample box is connected to the meter box by an umbilical cord (14),
The umbilical cord has a thermometer (12) and check valve (13) on the
sample box end. The thermometer indicates the temperature of the gas
leaving the last impinger, and the check valve prevents gas from
backing up in the impingers thus forcing water from the impingers into
the filter when the system is turned off. ..
The meter bo,* contains a vacuum gauge (15) to measure the pressure
"drop across the sampling train, an on-off valve (16) and a by-pass
valve (18) to adjust the gas flow rate through the train. Next is
14
-------
a leak!ess vacuum pump (17) to pull the gas through the train, a dry
gas meter (19) to measure the total amount of dry gas sampled, and
an orifice,(20) connected to an oil manometer (21) to indicate in-
stantaneous gas flow through the train. The dry gas meter contains
inlet and outlet thermometers (12) to measure meter temperatures.
An S-type pitot tube (22) is attached to the probe. This pitot
tube is connected across an oil manometer to continuously measure
velocity pressure while sampling.
A thermocouple was~~tape'd to th'e probe and connected to a potentio-
meter to ind-ica-te-stack temperature.
A velocity traverse was taken in each duct by positioning the pitot .
and thermocouple in the center of each of the equal areas shown in
Figure 3. The data from these traverses was used to determine the
nozzle size needed to sample isokinetically and at a rate of approxi-
mately 0.75 cfm. The center of each of these equal areas was sampled
isokinetically for 3 minutes for a total of 135 minutes per each test
run. Isokinetic flow was maintained using the nomograph described in
the test procedures. Any deviation from the standard procedures are
explained in the Appendix. Complete test procedures are available from
OAP upon request. ' .

D., Particulate Sampling -ASME Train
Velocity traverses were taken in both the precipitator inlet
and outlet ducts using a standard pitot tube, and thermocouple
and potentiometer. The traverse data was used to select a sampling
nozzle size which would permit isokinetic sampling at a rate of
about 1 cfm through the meter. The same data v/as used to determine
the isokinetic sampling rates used in each area.
The sampling train consisted of a nozzle, a thimble holder containing
a tared alundum thTmbleT probe, condenser, dry gas meter, and- ejector.
The temperaturerancr pressure at the meter were monitored so that the
f"*9aT'sampled could be calculated-to standard condrbiens
Ten equal areas were sampled in the precipitator inlet ducts and
15 equal areas (see Figure 4) were sampled in the precipitator out-
let ducts. . ..... .....
Procedures were followed as given in'Power Test Code 27.
E. NO Sampling
Samples were collected in an evacuated flask of known volume
coDtaining 25*ml. of a dilute solution of I-L02 and t-L SO,. The
-- ~ ~" * * ~~ ' t
pressure and temperature of the flask was measured before and after
sampling so that the sample volume could be adjusted to standard
17
-------
conditions.
To analyze for NO the solution was evaporated to dryness and treated
A
with phenoldisulfonic acid reagent and ammonium hydroxide and measured
colorimetrically. ' '
F. Orsat Sample .-'.'
Integrated samples for C02 and Op were collected in Tediar bags
over the whole test period and analyzed using an orsat.

Dear Mr. Hooper: ----- ..;.~ ._ . --
Enclosed you will find two cop ieja. of our tabulation of data and reaulta
from the subject test. At your earliest convenience, would you please
send us copi'eff" oฃ^our~re3ults."~ This is in accordance with the agreements
which we made ptto-y-tb the teat. . _^,_
After we receive your results, we will send you a copy of our teat report
which will include a coupariaion of your results and ours..
We call your attention particularly to Item 12 , "Coal Analysis, As Fired,"
in our tabulation. This was requested by your Mr. James Kelly. When he
was at Lee on February 5, 1971, we gave him coal samples from the test,
but he indicated that he did not have the equipment to. check the samples
for BTU , aah? moisture, and sulfur. . .
One unusual aad unexpected condition that we had during the test van <:ao
sulfur content of the coal. .It ran from 1.90 to 2.092. This uaa an
abnormal condition because our sulfur generally runs frota about .0.5 to
1.5%. V7e do not believe that this had any effect on' the performance of
this hot precipitator because ash conductivity varies 30 slightly with
sulfur in the 700ฐ F range.
)' truly yours,
