What is a boiler? ~ A boiler uses controlled flame combustion to burn coal and other substances such as oil or biomass to produce steam or hot water, which is then used for energy or heat. What is an area source? ~ Any source that is not a major source. ~ Major sources emit or have potential to emit >10 TPY of any single air toxic or >25 TPY of combined air toxics. Which boilers are not affected? ~ Any gas-fired boiler. ~ Hot water heaters with capacity <120 U.S. gallons and hot water boilers (i.e., not generating steam) with heat input capacity <1.6 MMBtu/hr burning gas, oil, or biomass. ~ Waste heat boilers. ~ Boilers used as control devices for other standards. ~ Boilers subject to other NESHAP, section 129 standards, or hazardous waste boilers. ~ Research and development boilers. ~ Temporary boilers. ~ Residential boilers. ~ Electric boilers. How do I comply? Rule requirements vary depending on boiler: 1) Fuel type, 2) Construction date, and 3) Size. Meet Emission Limits ~ Conduct initial performance stack test and establish operating parameters. ~ Repeat performance tests every 3 years. (Note: For PM, if initial performance test shows that emissions are < half of the limit, further PM performance testing is not required.) ~ Develop and follow a site-specific testing plan and site-specific monitoring plan. Summary of Boiler Area Source NESHAP Emission Limit and Work Practice Requirements Boiler Size and Construction Date Fuel type Summary of Requirements All Gas-fired boilers Gas (all types) • None (not covered by the rule) Other New and Existing Small boilers (<10 MMBtu/hr) Oil, Biomass and Coal • Tune-up every other year or every 5 years Existing boilers: Commenced construction or reconstruction of the boiler on or before June 4, 2010 Note: An existing dual-fuel fired boiler that fuel switches from gaseous fuel to solid fossil fuel, biomass, or liquid fuel after June 4, 2010 is considered to be an existing source as long as the boiler was designed to accommodate the alternate fuel Existing Large boilers (>10 MMBtu/hr) Biomass and Oil • Tune-up every other year • One-time energy assessment Coal (excluding limited-use boilers) • Emission limits for Hg and CO • One-time energy assessment Limited-use Coal • Tune-up every 5 years • No emission limits or energy assessment New boilers: Commenced construction or reconstruction after June 4, 2010 New large boilers (>10 MMBtu/hr) Biomass and Oil (excluding limited-use, seasonal, and new oil-fired boilers bolded below) • Emission limit for PM • Tune-up every other year or every 5 years Coal (excluding limited-use boilers) • Emission limits for Hg, CO, and PM Limited-use Coal, Biomass, and Oil and Seasonal Biomass and Oil • Tune-up every 5 years • No emission limits ~ Conduct initial and quarterly fuel analysis for each type of fuel if the Hg constituents in the fuel are greater than half of the Hg emission limit. Further fuel analysis sampling is not required if the Hg constituents in the fuel are measured to be < half of the Hg emission limit. Minimize boiler startups and shutdowns and follow the manufacturer's recommended procedures Monitor and collect data to demonstrate compliance with operating limits. Conduct performance evaluations of continuous monitoring systems. As an alternative to Hg stack testing, a fuel analysis may be conducted to demonstrate that Hg fuel pollutant input is lower than the Hg emission limit. As an alternative to CO stack testing, CO/oxygen CEMS may be used to demonstrate compliance. New oil-fired boilers that combust only oil that contains no more than 0.50 weight percent sulfur or a mixture of 0.50 weight percent sulfur oil with other fuels not subject to a PM emission limit under subpart JJJJJJ and that do not use a post-combustion technology (except a wet scrubber) to reduce PM or sulfur dioxide emissions are not subject to the PM emission limit. Conduct a One-Time Energy Assessment ~ Assess the boiler and its energy use systems to identify cost- effective energy conservation measures. ~ The rule's energy assessment requirement is also satisfied when an assessment completed on or after January 1, 2008, meets or is amended to meet the rule's requirements or a facility operates under an energy management program compatible with ISO 50001. Conduct Tune-up ~ Conduct a tune-up every 2 years or 5 years, as applicable. ~ Tune-up frequency is reduced for limited-use boilers, seasonal boilers, oil-fired boilers with heat input capacity <5 MMBtu/hr, and boilers with an oxygen trim system that would otherwise be subject to a biennial tune-up. ------- |
