6 1. Introduction 1.1 General 1. In adherence to the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD), Holcim has agreed to publish a corporate Sustainable Development (SD) report (including a chapter on environment) within two years from the date of adherence. 2. In implementing the Alternative Fuels and Raw Materials (AFR), the lack of a systematic record of emission data has been a matter of concern. 3. Because environmental authorities are continually issuing or revising emission limit values for industries, reliable back-up data are needed. 4. Holcim's goal to continuously improve the environment also needs reliable emission data to prepare adequate decisions. 1.2 EMR Objectives The Holcim Executive Committee (Exco) has adopted the EMR scheme, which requires the Group plants to: (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) Install and operate continuous emission monitoring (CEM) equipment for particulate matter (PM) 1 or dust, NO x, SO 2, THC (VOC), CO (if desired), and O 2. 2 Measure HCl, NH 3, C 6 H 6, D/F and HM (Heavy metals) emissions (at least) once per year. Conduct performance evaluation tests of the CEM equipment (at least) once per year. Report in a standardized form once per year (01.03.xy) to Holcim GRoup Support- Corporate Industrial Ecology (HGRS-CIE). Ensure that organizations entrusted with work according to points (a), (b) and (c) are capable of delivering quality work. Note: The Exco decision did not address points (c) and (e), but these points are mandatory to assure a high quality level of information obtained under points (a), (b), and (c). 1 The PM CEMS performance specifications (PS-11) and the quality assurance procedures (Procedure 2) have been proposed on December 12, The PM CEMS will be installed after the promulgation of PS-11 and Procedure 2. Until then, PM performance tests will be conducted annually. 2 The installation of some of the CEMS is not required by the regulations. Holcim's decision to monitor these emissions is primarily to develop a database for assessing emission levels. It is to also ensure that emissions are not significantly different from plant to plant and to determine appropriate process and emission control measures. 6/91

7 1.3 EMR implementation deadlines for USA Implementation in 2002 First EMR reporting on Supporting Documents In order to standardize and streamline EMR in the Group, to facilitate EMR implementation, and generally to assure a high EMR quality level, two documents were prepared by HGRS CIE and CTS, namely: The EMR-Manual (document on hand) The EMR-Guidelines Both documents can be found in ENVIROnet on HolSpace. The EMR Manual and Guidelines are intended to be living documents; thus, they are subject to continuous improvement. Any comments are, therefore, welcome and will be integrated in new versions of the manual. 7/91

8 2. Emission Measurements 2.1 General Design of Emission Regulations Air Emissions Authorities can specify the following measures: Ambient air quality standards Emission limits Operation and maintenance practices Raw material or fuel requirements or specifications Process equipment specifications Associated with the above measures are requirements for monitoring, emission testing, reporting, and recordkeeping Control Measures Anyone who operates an installation that is regulated for air emissions must submit to the authorities on a regular basis a certificate of compliance report, including the type, level of emissions, and time period of discharge. The reports may also include operational status of process equipment, control equipment, CEMS equipment, and corrective actions for malfunctions or poor process, control, or CEMS performance. The authorities supervise the compliance of emissions with the applicable limits. There are basically two types of control measures: Performance testing and continuous monitoring. Performance testing emission measurements are made at regular intervals, e.g., once every one to three years using reference methods. The measurements may be pollutant concentrations or mass rates, or control device parameters, e.g., inlet temperature. Continuous monitoring emission measurements made on a continual basis using automated instrumentation. 8/91

9 2.1.3 Measurement Procedures and Reporting Emission measurements must be carried out using standard methodology. Measurements must be related to the operating modes that are important for assessing emissions. Measured and calculated values, the measuring methods used, the respective CEM operating conditions, process operating conditions during the measuring period must be recorded. Emissions must be expressed in the units of the emission limit, such as: Concentration mass per unit volume of flue gas, e.g. [mg/m 3 ]. The flue gas volume might be corrected to a standard flue gas composition, e.g., 7 [%] or 10 [%] O 2 (Holcim standard). Mass flows mass per unit of time, e.g. [g/h. Emission factors ratios of mass per product produced, e.g. [g/ton of clinker] Assessment of Emissions Measured values must be converted to the averaging time specified by the rules. For performance measurements, the number of measurements (test runs) is usually three. The average of the three runs is then reported. For continuous measurements, except for system breakdowns, repairs, calibration checks, and zero and span adjustments, the measurements are made continuously. The frequency of measurements is specified in the applicable regulations. For Holcim plants, at least one reading every minute is recorded and daily averages are compared against the Holcim's applicable emission guideline values (EGVs) that are listed in Section 2.2. Unless specifically specified by State or local control agencies, there are no emission limits for some of the gases, such as SO Emission Limits in Cement Plants Emissions from cement plants may be regulated by the following rules: 40 CFR 60, Subpart F Standards of Performance for Portland Cement Plants 40 CFR 63, Subpart EEE National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants from Hazardous Waste Combustors 40 CFR 63, Subpart LLL National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants from the Portland Cement Manufacturing Industry 40 CFR 52 Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans 40 CFR 70/71 State and Federal Implementation Plans State or Local Agency Rules In addition to the Holcim requirements, each individual plant should determine whether any of the above rules apply. 9/91

10 2.2 Holcim Emission Guideline Values (EGVs) The EGVs are used internally by Holcim for determining relative emission levels among Holcim plants worldwide. The data gathered will be used by management to make sound technical judgments to guide business and engineering decisions, to allocate resources, and to minimize emissions. The data gathered will assist in the implementation of AFR. The following EGVs are used as benchmarking values for Holcim plants in the USA: Emission Emission Guideline Value (benchmark value) Dust 50 NOx (as NO 2 ) 800 SO VOC 100*) HCl 30 *) as [mgc/m 3 N,dry] 2.3 Emission Measurements and Monitoring in Cement Plants The measurement of emissions from cement plants falls into two categories: Performance tests Continuous monitoring Each performance test consists of three separate runs using the applicable test method. The arithmetic mean of the three runs is used to determine the level of emissions. The performance tests are further detailed in "Guidelines for Annual Emissions Measurement at Holcim Cement Plants." The continuous monitoring of emissions is used as a means of assessing levels of emissions on a continuous basis. Holcim has adopted a company-wide policy that requires all plants to install and operate CEMSs on the main stack, whether or not required by any federal or state rules, for the following emissions: PM (dust) (Note: The installation of a PM CEMS is not required until PS-11 and Procedure 2 are promulgated.) NO x SO 2 VOC (THC) CO (if desired) O 2 Flow (if necessary) 10/91

11 2.4 Monitor Performance Specifications CEMS Design and Operation Each CEMS must automatically check the zero (or low level value between zero and 20% of span value) and span (50 to 100% of span value) calibration drifts of at least once daily in accordance with a written procedure (manufacturer's manual). The CEMS must quantify and record the amount of zero and span drifts and determine the excess amounts. Whenever the daily zero or span drift exceeds two times the limit of the applicable performance specification, the zero and span must be adjusted. (Note: This specification is based on 40 CFR 63. However, if Appendix F, Procedure 1, is specified, the above specifications may be changed to "two times the limit of the applicable performance specification on five consecutive daily checks or four times the limit on any daily check.) In addition, the date/time and duration in excess of the limits must be recorded. The CEMS must complete and record a measurement once every minute. In some cases, the US EPA rules may require more frequent measurements, e.g., THC measurements must be done every 15 seconds. In this case, the US EPA rule shall apply. In other cases, the US EPA rules may allow one measurement every 15 minutes. The 15-minute specification may be used, if necessary. The CEMS must be able to determine an hourly average by using at least 40 minutes of 1-minute values in any hour, except during calibrations. The CEMS must reduce the data to daily averages from at least 16 hours per day. Data recorded during periods of continuous system breakdown, repair, calibration checks, and zero and span adjustments are not to be included in the data averages Individual Monitor Performance Specifications The individual monitor performance specifications below are based on 40 CFR 60, except for the flow monitor specifications, which are derived from 40 CFR CFR 60 does not have performance specifications for flow monitors. Where EPA has no specifications or where EPA specifications are more restrictive, the specifications are noted at "Holcim." In some cases, the specifications include references to emission limits or span values, which may not apply. These specifications have been revised to refer to meaningful references. 11/91

14 2.4.3 Performance Evaluation of Continuous Monitoring Systems (CMSs) Regulations require an initial performance evaluation of CMSs when specified in the rules. For example, if hazardous waste is being burned, monitoring is required for CO or THC, and O 2. THC monitoring is also required in greenfield applications. Even if no EPA or State rules apply and performance evaluations are not mandatory, performance specifications are still necessary to evaluate the CMS to ensure acceptable instruments from suppliers. The suggested performance specifications are as follows: CEMS/COMS Performance Specification 1 NO x PS-2 SO 2 PS-2 CO PS-4B O 2 PS-3 THC PS-8A Flow See Section In those cases where the specifications do not apply (e.g., when there is no emission limit), see Section for modifications to specifications Subsequent performance evaluations are conducted according to a schedule developed in a Quality Assurance/Quality Control Program (see Section 4). 2.5 General Measuring Techniques The concentration of a substance in the exhaust gas can be measured directly in the stack (insitu) or a part of the exhaust gas can be extracted from the stack and then measured (extractive) In-Situ Measuring Devices The measurement is made directly in the stack and no gas is extracted. Example: Dust can be measured using the physical principle of light absorption. The light is sent directly through the stack and the light absorption is an indication of the dust content. 14/91

15 FIGURE 2.1: Principle of an In-Situ Measuring Device Sender Light Beam Emitter Receiver Problems with this measuring device are very often related to calibration. A calibration gas cannot be introduced easily. Therefore special calibration facilities need to be installed Extractive Measuring Devices Part of the gas stream is extracted from the stack and fed to the analyzing system. The extracted gas must be cleaned and eventually dried before entering the analyzers The Cold Extractive Measuring Device After the extraction the sample gas stream is cooled down to approximately 4 [ C}. The water vapor condenses and is extracted through a special output system. Then the gas is fed to the analyzers. FIGURE 2.2: Example of a Cold Extractive Measuring Device Filter (heated) Sample Gas Cooler Gas Probe Pump "Cold" Analyzer(s) Heated Tube Outlet Condensate 15/91

16 The problems of this device are related to reactions of some components with the condensate in the gas cooler. So, compounds like ammonia, sulfur, hydrogen chlorides, etc. are completely or partly washed out with the condensate and a measurement is not possible. The "Hot" Extractive Measuring Device The gas is extracted and kept at a temperature, which does not allow condensation or chemical reactions to occur. Depending on the substances measured this temperature must kept between 140 and 200 [ C].

52 3.5 The Integration of VOC Measurement Devices In this chapter the correct integration of VOC analyzers into existing and new measuring stations is described Principle of Operation of VOC Analyzers The Flame Ionization Detection (FID) method is used to determine the presence of volatile organic compounds (or total hydrocarbon) concentrations in a gaseous sample: Sample gas Fuel gas Oven Air Gas outlet FIGURE 3.1: Measuring Principle Burning hydrocarbon-free hydrogen in hydrocarbon-free air produces negligible number of ions. Once a sample containing hydrocarbons is introduced into the flame a very complex ionization process is started. This process creates a large number of ions. A high polarizing voltage, producing an electrostatic field, is applied between the two electrodes around the burner nozzle. Now negative ions migrate to the collector electrode and positive ions migrate to the high voltage electrode. The so generated ionization current between the two electrodes is directly proportional to the concentration of volatile organic compounds in the sample that is burned by the flame Connection of the Analyzer The gas sample must be extracted from the stack or duct and kept hot until the sample enters the FID analyzer. From experience it is known that organic compounds with high evaporation temperatures can be present in the exhaust gas of a cement plant. If these compounds enter the flame ionization analyzer with too low temperatures the compounds condense in the internal fine filter, in the internal capillary system, etc. and block the analyzer. 52/91

53 Therefore it is recommended: to keep the gas temperature inside the flame ionization detector at a temperature of at least 180 [ C], if possible at 200 [ C]. to kept the gas temperature in the extraction system above the maximum gas temperature in the chimney, but at least at 150 [ C] FID with a Separate Extraction Line If the FID can not be integrated into an extraction line, e.g. in connection with in-situ measuring devices, the gas must be extracted through a separate extraction line and fed to the FID analyzer. The volume stream should be sucked through the analyzer by an integrated pump inside the analyzer. The gas temperature inside the whole line and the analyzer should be kept at least at 180 [ C]. Sample Gas Extraction FID with internal pump Heated tubes Integration of the FID Analyzer into an Extractive System with Cold Analyzers Very often, the plant has an extractive measuring system with cold analyzers, and the flame ionization detector should be integrated into the emission cabinet. In this case the gas can be extracted directly from the hot line. It is important, that the gas remains hot, i.e. the sample gas temperature should not drop below 150 [ C] around the connection point. The problem of such an arrangement is in any case the gas flow. It must be checked that the volume stream for the cold analyzers, respectively for the flame ionization detector, is large enough and additionally it must be checked that the flame ionization detector is not subject to any pressure fluctuation in the measuring system. 53/91

54 FID Air Calibration Cold Analyzers Filter Gas pump Sample Gas Extraction Sample Gas Cooler Condensate Output Cabinet Heated tubes An alternative solution is the distribution of the gases in a separate box with a hot pump. This solution has the advantage that a constant gas stream can be fed two the two gas analyzing systems. FID Sample Gas Extraction Heated distribution box Cold Analyzer(s) 54/91

55 3.5.5 Integration of the FID Analyzer into an Extractive System with hot Analyzers In systems with hot analyzers, the distribution of the gas is usually made in a heated box. Therefore the connection of a flame ionization detector should not be a problem. In any case, it must be only checked that the delivered volume of the pump is enough.
