Boiler Group Chair/Co-Chair
ICCR Boiler Source Work Group
Attached is a table entitled HAPs Selection and Test Methods for Oil Fired Boilers. The list contains
the names of the 189 Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAPs) that have, based on experience, been screened
for potential presence in emissions from oil fired boilers. This preliminary screening has been
performed on the list by the Testing and Monitoring Protocol Work Group (TMPWG). This table
is being forwarded to the Boiler Source Work Group (SWG) for review and comment.
The table includes HAPs that may be present in these emissions. Additionally, a listing of testing
methods that have been used and have the potential to quantify the HAPs presence in flue gas
emissions are included.
For those HAPs that are not included in the list, a codified reason for their exclusion is provided.
Exclusion codes include:
1- Compound is not expected to be emitted from source because basic chemical or
physical principles do not favor its existence in source exhaust.
2 - Existing test data indicate that compound is not emitted in significant quantities from source.
Other exclusion codes are included as appropriate.
It should be noted that this table is general in its first draft and represents the extent of the TMPWG s
knowledge and experience with emissions from oil fired boilers. Please review carefully from a
standpoint of those HAPs included as well as those HAPs excluded. The subgroup within the
TMPWG that is responsible for the development of this table has included a preface that provides the
sources of information utilized to develop the table, the rationale for exclusion codes, and the names
of the TMPWG contact for the Boiler SWG.
If we can be of service in any other fashion or if you have any questions concerning in the table,
please contact Tom McGrath (e-mail: "eertommc@hotmail.com") the TMPWG member who is
monitoring the activities of your SWG.

HAP Selection and Test Methods for Oil Fired Boilers
Most source testing studies have been carried out to measure criteria pollutant emissions (NOX,
S02, etc.) and not HAPs. The category "oil fired boilers" can encompass a range of fuels from
diesel to Bunker No. 6. Therefore an initial review of the analytical data on the fuel is helpful and
may result in eliminating categories of compounds of HAPs. While bromine is not present in oils,
chlorine may be present in some fuel oils and the HAP table provided here includes that
possibility.
Combustion is a strongly oxidizing process and many compounds are not stable under these
conditions, this results in a further reduction of potential HAPs. Compounds included in this list
were selected on the basis of their presence in the emissions database developed in California in
accord with the requirements of California State Assembly Bill 2588.

Additional emissions test information was provided in an EPA report which addressed HAP
emissions from a variety of coal, oil, and gas fired utility boilers.
