As stated in § 63.11201, you must comply with the applicable operating limits:
|
If you demonstrate compliance with applicable emission limits using . . . |
You must meet these operating limits except during periods of startup and shutdown . . . |
|---|---|
|
1. Fabric filter control |
a. Maintain opacity to less than or equal to 10 percent opacity (daily block average); OR |
|
b. Install and operate a bag leak detection system according to § 63.11224 and operate the fabric filter such that the bag leak detection system alarm does not sound more than 5 percent of the operating time during each 6-month period. |
|
|
2. Electrostatic precipitator control |
a. Maintain opacity to less than or equal to 10 percent opacity (daily block average); OR |
|
b. Maintain the 30-day rolling average total secondary electric power of the electrostatic precipitator at or above the minimum total secondary electric power as defined in § 63.11237. |
|
|
3. Wet scrubber control |
Maintain the 30-day rolling average pressure drop across the wet scrubber at or above the minimum scrubber pressure drop as defined in § 63.11237 and the 30-day rolling average liquid flow rate at or above the minimum scrubber liquid flow rate as defined in § 63.11237. |
|
4. Dry sorbent or activated carbon injection control |
Maintain the 30-day rolling average sorbent or activated carbon injection rate at or above the minimum sorbent injection rate or minimum activated carbon injection rate as defined in § 63.11237. When your boiler operates at lower loads, multiply your sorbent or activated carbon injection rate by the load fraction (e.g., actual heat input divided by the heat input during the performance stack test; for 50 percent load, multiply the injection rate operating limit by 0.5). |
|
5. Any other add-on air pollution control type. |
This option is for boilers that operate dry control systems. Boilers must maintain opacity to less than or equal to 10 percent opacity (daily block average). |
|
6. Fuel analysis |
Maintain the fuel type or fuel mixture (annual average) such that the mercury emission rate calculated according to § 63.11211(c) are less than the applicable emission limit for mercury. |
|
7. Performance stack testing |
For boilers that demonstrate compliance with a performance stack test, maintain the operating load of each unit such that it does not exceed 110 percent of the average operating load recorded during the most recent performance stack test. |
|
8. Oxygen analyzer system |
For boilers subject to a CO emission limit that demonstrate compliance with an oxygen analyzer system as specified in § 63.11224(a), maintain the 30-day rolling average oxygen level at or above the minimum oxygen level as defined in § 63.11237. This requirement does not apply to units that install an oxygen trim system since these units will set the trim system to the level specified in § 63.11224(a)(7). |
