INTRODUCTION
Background
Texaco, Inc. operates an integrated petroleum refinery at this
location with a rated capacity of 11,900 m3 (75,000 bbl)/day. Major
products from this refinery include jet fuels, diesel fuels, gasoline,
fuel oils, and petroleum coke.
Texaco employs about 900 people at this refinery and operates
three 8-hour shifts, 7 days per week, year around.
On October 30-31, 1975, a process inspection was conducted at this
facility by NEIC personnel at the request of Region IX, EPA. The inspec-
tion was preceded by a letter to the Company [Appendix A] on September
8, 1975, announcing NEIC's intention to inspect the facility and request-
ing substantial amounts of process and source information.
During the inspection, an examination was made of the refining
equipment, potential air pollution sources, and air pollution control
equipment. The purpose of this inspection was to evaluate the degree
of compliance of this facility with the requirements of the Federally
approved State Implementation Plan as required by Section 110 of the
Clean Air Act, as amended.
Company personnel were cooperative throughout this inspection.
They supplied all information EPA requested during the inspection in-
terview or by subsequent letter.

POTENTIAL SOURCES OF AIR POLLUTION EMISSIONS AND RELATED CONTROL EQUIPMENT
Although the Texaco refinery is a complex facility, there are rela-
tively few large discrete potential sources of air pollutant emissions.
With the exception of the fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) unit, the major
unit processes at the refinery are closed systems and release of ma-
terials to the atmosphere is discouraged because such releases would re-
sult in loss of product. The process heaters attendant to these units
constitute the main emissions sources.
There are also a large number of relatively small potential sources
of emissions related to the operation of the refinery. Such sources in-
clude leaks from valve seals, pump seals and pipe flanges, and evapora-
tive losses from storage tanks and process wastewater drains. Potential
sources of emissions and their related control equipment are discussed
below.
Process Heaters and Boilers
There are forty-seven process heaters and eighteen steam boilers
ranging in size from 1.2 x 10^ to 75.6 x 10^ kg cal (4.8 x 10^ to 300 x 10^
Btu)/hr heat input. A complete listing of these units is presented in
Appendix C.
Approximately half of these units use a mixture of refinery fuel gas
and natural gas as fuel. The remainder can be fueled with refinery fuel
gas, natural gas or fuel oil.
None of the process heaters or boilers are equipped with emission
control devices. The fresh feed heater at the delayed coker, the carbon
monoxide boiler, and the main steam boilers are equipped with stack gas
opacity detectors as noted in Appendix C.
Sulfur oxide emissions from these units are controlled by limiting
-------
6
the sulfur content of the fuels burned. Refinery gas must be desulfur-
3 ?
lzed to less than 1.1 gm/m (50 grains per 100 ft ) of sulfur compounds.
Fuel oil used in stationary fuel burning equipment is produced in the
refinery from low sulfur crude. Its sulfur content is less than 0.5% by
weight.
Internal Combustion Engines
Thirteen stationary internal combustion engines are in use at this
refinery to drive compressor units. All of the engines are fueled on
natural gas and have a total gas consumption of 3.7 x 104 m3 (1.32 x 106
ft ) per day. Appendix D summarizes the information available on these
engines. None of the units have emission control devices.
Storage Tanks
The 252 storage tanks at this facility, ranging in size from 0.5 to
22, 700 m (3 to 143,000 bbl), are used to store a wide variety of
materials. Since some of these compounds are volatile, hydrocarbon
vapors may escape from these tanks. Where this potential exists, the
materials are stored in specially constructed tanks such as pressure
vessels and floating roof tanks, or in tanks which are hard piped by
manifolds to the plant vapor recovery system.
The plant vapor recovery system consists of manifold piping and
compressors which maintain a vacuum on the tanks. Vapors collected by
this system are scrubbed in di-ethanolamine (DEA) scrubbers and then
introduced into the refinery fuel gas system.
A summary of the storage tanks at this refinery, their configu-
ration, and the materials stored within is presented in Appendix E.
-------
7
Blowdown Systems
The majority of the process units have emergency relief valves
which are connected to a manifolded header system. If it becomes neces-
sary to rapidly release quantities of liquids and gases from a unit,
they are routed by the mainfold system to liquid knock-out pots and
ultimately combusted in a flare.
There are three flares at this refinery. The two main flares, con-
nected to a common manifold system, are at the main refinery area. The
third flare is at the sulfur recovery plant.
The two main area flares are each 76.2 m (250 ft) high and have an
exit diameter of 0.8 in (2.5 ft). Each is rated at 448 x 106 kg cal
(1,778 x 10^ Btu)/hr and can handle 38 m. tons (38 long tons)/hr of
hydrocarbon materials. Both units are John Zink Smokeless field flares
(model STF-S-30) with three John Zink pilots, model STF-2, coupled with
John Zink flame front generators. These two flares receive blowdown
materials via the common manifold system from alkylation units 1 and 2,
catalytic reforming units 1, 2, and 3, the fluid catalytic cracking
unit, the hydrocracker unit, hydrotreating units 1, 2 and 3, the hydrogen
generation unit, the gas treating unit, and the delayed coking units.
With the exception of the delayed coking units, gaseous blowdowns from
these operations occur intermittently on an as needed basis. Blowdown
from the delayed coker is continuous.
The flare at the sulfur recovery plant is a John Zink smokeless
field flare (model STF-S-8) with three John Zink STF-2 pilots coupled to
a John Zink flame front generator. It is 15.2 m (50 ft) high and
has an exit diameter of 0.2 m (0.67 ft). It has a rated capacity of
148 x 10^ kg cal (586 x 10^ Btu)/hr and can handle 12.5 m. tons
(12.5 long tons)/hr of materials. It receives off-gases from the
sour water stripper, hydrocarbon flash drums, and rich amine surge
tanks located at the sulfur recovery plant.
-------
8
Texaco uses closed circuit TV cameras to monitor the flare operations.
Steam rate to the flares is adjusted manually by the operators while
they observe the flare on the TV to maintain smoke-free operation.
Not all of the pressure relief valves on the process units are
connected to the flare manifold system. As the valves are routinely
replaced they are being tied into the flare system. The older valves
are maintained by an inspection program in compliance with LAAPCD
Rule 73.
Delayed Coking and Coke Handling
Steam is introduced into the coke drums for 45 minutes after the
charge is completely coked. Off-gases from this operation are routed
to a blowdown contactor where they are sprayed with sponge oil. From
the contactor they are sent to coolers, a sour water knockout accumu-
lator, and ultimately combusted in the plant flare system.
After the steaming operation, the coke drum is water flooded, a
process which takes approximately 5 hours. Off-gases from this op-
eration are treated by the method described above.
After the vessel is water flooded, the access port at the top of
the drum is opened, the coke drill is inserted, and the water drained.
The access port is open to the atmosphere during the water draining
and coke cutting operation, a period of approximately 3 hours.
Some steam and organic vapors do escape to the atmosphere during this
period.
The coke which is cut from the drums is transported via open con-
veyor to a covered coke shed. Here it is screened to size and stored.
The coke screening operation is vented to a spray type scrubber system.
There are also spray systems within the coke shed to maintain coke
moisture content and minimize dust problems.
-------
9
Vacuum Jets
Vacuum jets are used at a vacuum distillation tower located near
the delayed coking unit. Exhaust gases from the vacuum jet system are
routed through a di-ethanolamine gas treating tower for sulfide removal
and then to a process heater firebox or, alternately, to the plant flare
system.
All vacuum jet condensate is collected in accumulators. Sour water
from the accumulators is contained in closed systems or in storage tanks
connected to the plant vapor recovery system. Sour water is ultimately
processed in the sour water strippers, which are discussed later.
There are no barometric condensers at this plant.
Fluid Catalytic Cracking Unit
Spent catalyst from the fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) unit is
continuously removed from the reactor portion and introduced through
piping into the catalyst regeneration unit. Here the petroleum coke,
tars, and other residual deposits which form on the catalyst surface are
burned off the catalyst fines. The recovered catalyst is then recycled
to the reactor. Catalyst particles which are entrained in the exhaust
gases are partially captured by a series of cyclone separators internal
to the regenerator unit. Catalyst captured by these cyclones is re-
turned to the regenerator.
The regenerator unit exhaust gases contain considerable amounts of
carbon monoxide, particulate matter, aldehydes, sulfur oxides, ammonia,
and oxides of nitrogen. To minimize the emission of carbon monoxide
(CO) and to recover the fuel value of this material, the regenerator
exhaust gases are combusted in a waste heat boiler.
-------
10
After exiting the regenerator cyclone units and before entering the
CO boiler, the exhaust gases are routed through two sets of electro-
static precipitator (ESP) units in series. ESP No. 1 is a Cottrell unit
consisting of two parallel banks of four stages each. From the No. 1
ESP the exhaust gases pass through the No. 2 ESP, a Research Cottrell
unit. This unit also has two parallel banks of four stages each. No. 1
ESP was installed in 1942-1943; No. 2 unit was installed in 1974.
Exhaust gases pass from the No. 2 ESP into the CO boiler. There is
a bypass stack immediately before the CO boiler which has a water seal
pot. During those periods when the CO boiler is down for State inspec-
tion (1 or 2 weeks every year) or maintenance, exhaust gases from No. 2
ESP can be discharged directly to the atmosphere through this bypass.
The plate rapping cycle on ESP unit No. 1 is synchronized with the
CO boiler tube lancing cycle. The plates of ESP unit No. 2 are rapped
continuously. Approximately 25% of the CO boiler tubes are lanced every
hour for approximately two minutes. This frequency has been established
to ensure compliance with LAAPCD Rule 50.
Dust collected in the first two stages of ESP No. 1 are recycled
back to the FCC catalyst regeneration unit. Dust collected in the other
ESP stages is collected in hoppers and hauled to landfill by contractors.
The hoppers are emptied about once a week.
Exhaust gases from the CO boiler discharge through a 2.7 m (9 ft)
diameter stack, 55 m (181 ft) high. This stack is equipped with a
Bailey stack gas opacity detector and recorder. The CO boiler bypass
stack also has a Bailey opacity detector and recorder.
-------
11
Product Loading Racks
Butanes, propane, isobutane, butylenes, spent sulfuric acid from
the alkylation process, and molten sulfur are shipped from loading racks
equipped with vapor collection systems.
Butanes are loaded into rail tank cars. The loading spigots are
tied into the plant vapor recovery system.
Propane, isobutane, normal butane and butylenes are loaded into
tank trucks at another loading rack. During truck loading operations,
the off-vapors are vented to the storage tank from which the product is
being transferred. After a truck is finished loading, the loading hoses
are evacuated using the plant vapor recovery system.
Spent sulfuric acid is loaded into tank trucks for transport to
an acid reclaiming contractor. A centrifugal compressor is used to pull
a vacuum on the truck during the loading operations. The collected gases
are discharged to the plant vapor recovery system.
The molten sulfur truck loading racks at the sulfur recovery plant
are equipped with vacuum hoses which attach to the truck. Vapors col-
lected by these hoses are discharged to the sulfur plant flare system.
Wastewater Treatment Facilities
Total wastewater flow from this refinery averaged approximately
7.6 x 103 m3 (2 x 10^ gal)/day during fiscal year 1974-75. Of this
o O C
total, approximately 5.3 x 10 m (1.4 x 10 gal)/day went to the
Dominguez channel and 2.3 x 10 m (0.6 x 10 gal )/day were discharged
to the Los Angeles County Sanitation District sewers. Cooling tower
blowdown, boiler blowdown, steam condensate, washdown water, and rainfall
are passed through API oil/water separators, air flotation and chemical
-------
12
coagulation systems, and settling ponds before being discharged to the
Dominguez channel. Sour water, process water, and ballast water are
passed through API oil/water separators, sour gas stripping units, and
sour water oxidizing units before being discharged to the County sewer
system.
Off-gases from the sour water stripper are processed at the sulfur
recovery plant. Oil skimmings from the API separators are sent to the
slop storage and ultimately reprocessed. The API separators have covered
forebays or floating pontoon covers on the forebays in accordance with
LAAPCD Rule 59.
Sulfur Recovery and Disposal
Mercaptan gases from the alkylation plant are incinerated in the
fireboxes of steam boilers No. 1, 3, and 5. Off-gases from the three
wastewater oxidizer units are incinerated in boilers No. 2 and 4, in No.
1 charge heater at crude unit No. 4, heaters HC-100 and HC-101 at the
delayed coking unit, and the hot oil circulation heater at the No. 2
fractionation unit.
The majority of the sulfur bearing gases are processed for sulfur
recovery. All refinery fuel gas from the various refinery operations is
passed through di-ethanolamine scrubbing towers before being introduced
into the fuel gas system. Off-gases from the sour water stripper units
are routed directly to the sulfur recovery plant.
The DEA solution absorbs hydrogen sulfide from the sour gases.
This "rich" DEA is then pumped to storage tanks at the Texaco sulfur
recovery plant located about 1.2 km (3/4 mi) from the main refinery.
Rich DEA is also received at this location from other sources in the
area. The rich DEA is held in storage tanks which are vented to the
sulfur recovery plant flare.
-------
13
The rich DEA is steam stripped to remove the H^S. The resulting
"lean" DEA is recycled to the sour gas treating facilities. The re-
sulting concentrated H^S stream is used as feed to the sulfur plant.
Texaco operates four 2-stage Claus sulfur recovery units. Texaco
considers the rated capacities of these units and the yearly sulfur pro-
duction figures to be confidential. A schematic diagram of a typical
2-stage Claus plant is shown in Appendix F.
In the Claus process, hydrogen sulfide (l^S) is burned to form sulfur
dioxide (SO^). The SC^ and H^S react in the presence of a bauxite cata-
lyst to form elemental sulfur and water vapor. Typical sulfur recovery
efficiencies for Claus plants are 85% for one catalytic stage, 94% for
two stages, and 97% for three stages.
Each of the Claus units has its own tail gas incinerator unit. Prior
to the installation of the Beavon-Parsons tail gas treatment unit, exhaust
gases from the Claus units were burned in these incinerators. Currently,
they are not used except when malfunctions in the Beavon-Parsons system
necessitate an alternate method of tail gas disposal. Details on these
incinerators are presented in Appendix F.
In 1974, Texaco completed the installation and start-up of a
Beavon-Parsons tail gas treatment unit at the sulfur recovery plant.
The unit, rated at 17.3 m. tons (19 tons)/day of elemental sulfur, re-
ceives tail gases directly from the four Claus units.
A schematic diagram of the Beavon-Parsons unit is presented in
Appendix F. In the first stage of this process, all sulfur compounds in
the Claus tail gas are converted to H^S by reaction with fuel gas in a
reducing atmosphere and in the presence of catalyst. The sulfur com-
pounds are converted to H^S by hydrogenation and hydrolysis. The re-
sulting hydrogenated gas stream is cooled by direct contact with a
-------
14
slightly alkaline buffer solution before entering the Stretford Process
which follows.
In the Stretford Process, the hydrogenated tail gas is contacted
with an oxidizing alkaline solution containing sodium vanadate. The
absorbed I^S is oxidized to elemental sulfur by the oxidizing solution.
The resulting colloidal sulfur is removed by froth flotation and de-
watered on vacuum filters. The oxidizing agents in the Stretford so-
lution are regenerated by air oxidation. The regenerated solution is
recycled back to the Stretford absorption tower.
Off-gases from the Streford absorption tower are discharged di-
rectly to the atmosphere. In an emergency they can be routed to
the Claus incinerators for combustion.
There are no continuous stack gas monitors on the Stretford tower
exhaust stack.
EMISSIONS DATA
Source Test Data
NEIC personnel requested that Texaco supply copies of all stack
tests conducted at this facility since 1972. The LAAPCD was requested
to do likewise. The data obtained is summarized below.
FCC Unit Emissions. On May 22, 1974, LAAPCD Test C-2158 was con-
ducted on the exhaust gases from the CO boiler attendant to the FCC
unit. The test results indicated particulate emissions of 6.3 kg (13.9
lb)/hr., sulfur dioxide emissions of 94.5 kg (208 lb)/hr and 223 ppmv
concentration, nitrogen oxide emissions of 20 kg (44 lb)/hr and carbon
monoxide emissions of less than 10 ppmv. The unit was found to be in
compliance with all applicable LAAPCD rules.
-------
15
Sulfur Plant Tail Gas Unit. Exhaust gases from the Beavon-Parsons
tail gas treatment unit were tested on September 19, 1974 by the LAAPCD
(Test C-2195) and again on November 10, 1974 (Test C-2226). Total
sulfur as S02 was 1,332 ppmv and 15 ppmv, respectively, for the two
tests corresponding to 46.8 kg (103 lb)/hr and 0.8 kg (1.7 lb)/hr as
S02, respectively. No H2S was detected in either of these tests.
The 1,332 ppmv of sulfur as S02 found in Test C-2195 was in excess
of the 500 ppmv allowed under Rule 53.2. The subsequent Test C-2226
showed the unit in compliance with this rule. It is not known what
process changes were made between the two tests to account for the dif-
ferences in S02 concentrations experienced.
Heaters and Boilers. Texaco participated in a comprehensive study
of oxides of nitrogen (NO ) emissions from stationary sources in the
South Coast Air Basin. KVB Engineering, Inc. conducted the study during
1972-73 for the State of California Air Resources Board. The results of
emission tests on several Texaco heaters and boilers are coded in Table
3C-III of the KVB report. Texaco declined to identify their units in
this coded list, stating that they considered the information con-
fidential .
Computed Emission Rates
Theoretical emission factors for various emission sources found at
petroleum refineries are listed in Table 9.1-1 of the EPA publication
AP-42 Compilation of Air Pollutant Emission Factors, Second Edition
(second printing with Supplements 1-4). These emission factors were
used to compute the following emission rates. Emissions from hydro-
carbon storage tanks have not been calculated for this report; rather,
they will be included in a separate report being prepared by NEIC
which will summarize storage tank emissions from all refineries in Los
Angeles County.
-------
16
Boilers and Process Heaters. As can be seen from the listing of
process heaters and steam boilers shown in Appendix C, a substantial
number of these units can be fired with both fuel gas and fuel oil.
Theoretical emissions from these units are calculated using different
factors for each fuel type used. Therefore, it can be seen that a range
of emissions can exist depending on the available fuel situation. Table
2 summarizes the theoretical emissions for two possible situations: 1)
all units in the refinery are being operated at rated capacity and all
units are being fired with a mixture of refinery fuel gas and natural
gas, and 2) all units are being operated at rated capacity, and the
natural gas supply is curtailed. All units which can be fired with fuel
oil are being operated on oil with any heat input deficit being made up
with refinery fuel gas. All other units are being operated on refinery
fuel gas.
The process heaters and boilers are major contributors of nitrogen
oxides. Depending on the fuel use pattern at the refinery, calculated
nitrogen dioxide emissions for these units range from 360 to 588 kg (790
to 1,293 lb)/hr as N02- If the refinery is on natural gas curtailment,
these units are also potential large sources of particulate matter, 127
kg (281 1b)/hr and sulfur oxides, 238 kg (523 lb)/hr as S02.
Fluid Catalytic Cracking Unit. Table 2 summarizes the calculated
theoretical emissions from this unit. These figures were calculated
using AP-42 emission factors for FCC units with attendant CO boilers and
electrostatic precipitators. The calculated value for particulate
emissions using the average emission factor value listed in AP-42 is 24
kg (52 1b)/hr. This value is in excess of the maximum allowable emis-
sion rate under the LAAPCD Rule 54 which is 13.6 kg (30 lb)/hr. How-
ever, it should be emphasized that the AP-42 emission factor is an
average value for the industry and that the Texaco precipitators may be
more efficient than the average unit. It should be remembered that Texaco

is operating two ESP units in series. The LAAPCD Test C-2158 of May 22,
1974 indicated that the particulate emission rate was 6.3 kg (13.9
lb)/hr from this unit, well below the allowable emission rate. It is
not known whether this test was conducted at normal operating conditions,
or at start-of-run conditions which would favor lower emission rates.
The calculated emission rates for other pollutants from the FCC
unit indicate that substantial amounts of sulfur dioxide, hydrocarbon,
and nitrogen dioxide are emitted from this unit. The calculated theo-
retical values are 261 kg (575 lb)/hr, 117 kg (257 lb)/hr and 38 kg (83
lb)/hr, respectively.
Other Sources. Table 2 summarizes the calculated theoretical emis-
sion rates from other sources within the refinery. In general, AP-42
gives only hydrocarbon emission factors for these sources. The major
sources are leakage from pipeline valves and flanges which amount to 40
kg (88 1b)/hr of hydrocarbon.
SUMMARY OF PAST VIOLATIONS
The LAAPCD was requested to submit copies of violation notices
issued to Texaco. Copies of the violations issued since 1962 (6 total)
are presented in Appendix G. The most recent violation notices, May 11
and May 24, 1975, were issued due to malfunction of the sulfur recovery

INSPECTION SUMMARY
At the time of this inspection, all major process units were in
operation. All process units, storage vessels, potential pollution
emission points and pollution control devices in use at the refinery
were observed during this inspection.
Upon arriving at the refinery on October 31, 1975, and while waiting
for the pre-inspection interview to begin, NEIC personnel noted black
emissions with opacity of 80-100% emanating from a stack marked TEXACO,
south of the Pacific Coast Highway from the administration building.
The emissions continued for 15-20 minutes from approximately 7:55 am to
8:15 am. Due to the fact that the interview was about to begin, it was
not possible to conduct an accurate visible emissions observation at
that time. Later, during the plant inspection, it was determined that
the problem had been associated with steam boilers No. 1,3 and 5.
Excessive hydrocarbons had been carried over in the mercaptan waste gas
line from the alkylation units and introduced into the fireboxes of
these boilers. The hydrocarbon had upset the air/fuel ratio in these
units, resulting in the black smoke observed.
No visible emissions were noted from any of the other process
heaters or steam boilers. The flare systems also appeared to be opera-
ting correctly.
The CO boiler stack was observed during the boiler tube lancing/ESP
plate rapping cycle. The visible emissions during this 2-3 minute
period did not exceed 20%. Before and after the lancing/rapping cycle,
no visible emissions could be noted from this stack.
It was noted that severe corrosion had occurred on handrails and
other steel members at the Stretford froth floatation unit of the
Beavon-Parsons tail gas treatment unit. Also, condensed sulfur was
-------
20
noted at the exhaust port of the Stretford absorption tower. Both of
these situations appear to indicate operational problems with the
sulfur recovery units in the past.
In general, housekeeping at this refinery was very good. The
main process areas were neat with no noticeable spills or leaks.
Moderately strong sulfide/mercaptan odors were noted at the delayed
coking areas on both days. Very strong sulfide/mercaptan odors were
noted at the FCC unit on October 31, 1975. The sources of these odors
were not determined.

TEXACO, INC.
Los Angeles, California Refinery
SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS
3
Texaco, Inc., operates an 11,900 m (75,000 bbl)/day integrated
crude oil refinery in Wilmington, a suburb of Los Angeles, California.
An air pollution related inspection of these facilities was conducted by
NEIC personnel on October 30-31, 1975 at the request of Region IX, EPA.
Substantial amounts of process and air pollution control equipment
information were requested of, and received from, Texaco. The Los
Angeles Air Pollution Control District (LAAPCD) was requested to supply
information pertaining to stack testing conducted at this facility and
any violation notices issued to Texaco.
The following conclusions were derived based on the inspection
and information obtained:
1. With the exception of the exhaust gases from steam boilers
No. 1,3 and 5 (common stack), no visible emissions were noted from
any of the process units. A problem associated with the alkalation
process introduced excessive hydrocarbons into the line which feeds
mercaptan waste gases to the fireboxes of boilers No. 1,3 and 5.
The hydrocarbons upset the air/fuel ratio and caused approximately
15-20 minutes of 80-100% opacity exhaust emissions from the common
stack serving these boilers.
2. All equipment at this refinery is operating under a valid
LAAPCD permit.
3. General housekeeping at this refinery is very good.
4. Moderately strong sulfide/mercaptan odors were detected on
both days in the area near the delayed coking units. Very strong
sulfide/mercaptan odors were noted near the fluid catalytic
cracking (FCC) unit on October 31, 1975. The sources of these
odors were not determined.
-------
5. Calculations made using EPA emission factors in-
dicate that the emissions from the CO boiler attendant to the
FCC unit exceed the allowable rates under LAAPCD Rule 54. Stack
tests on this unit conducted by the LAAPCD on May 22, 1974 in-
dicated that it was operating in compliance with all LAAPCD rules.
6. Using EPA emission factors, the process heaters and
boilers at this facility appear to be significant sources of
nitrogen dioxide. There are no LAAPCD regulations which apply
to these units.
7. A stack test conducted by the LAAPCD (November 10, 1974) on
the Beavon-Parsons tail gas treating unit at the sulfur recovery
plant indicated that this unit complied with Rule 53.2. A pre-
vious LAAPCD test on this unit (September 19, 1974) indicated
non-compliance with this rule. It is not known what modifications
were made to the unit between the two tests.
8. Two violation notices were issued to Texaco by the LAAPCD
during 1975. Both violations were related to the sulfur recovery
plant.
RECOMMENDATIONS
1. Texaco should be required to stack test the Beavon-Parsons
sulfur plant tail gas treatment unit at least once per year.
2. Texaco should be required to stack test the CO boiler exhaust
at the mid-point of each FCC unit turnaround period.
3. Reports of the above tests should be provided to the Enforcement
Division of the LAAPCD and to the Director, Enforcement Division,
USEPA, Region IX.
