2015 | Source Reduction - SULFURIC ACID AEROSOL COMES FROM SO2 THAT IS COMBUSTED, THE HIGHEST SULFUR FUEL IS DIESEL FUEL. THE PLANT IS WORKING TO MINIMIZE THE USE OF DIESEL AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. HOWEVER AT TIMES WE ARE FORCED TO BURN DIESEL DUE TO GAS CURTAILMENTS. | ||
2014 |
Other Barriers to Source Reduction - Sulfuric Acid Aerosol comes from SO2 that is combusted, the highest sulfer fuel is Diesel. The plant is trying to reduce the use of Diesel as much as possible. |
||
2011 | Source Reduction - The Sulfuric Acid is a byproduct of combustion. When the plant is using #2 fuel oil the production is higher than natural gas. Our objective is to burn as little fuel oil as possible. The fuel oil that we do burn we try to get the lowest sulfure content as possible. the plant has tested bio-diesel and found that a blend can reduce the emission farther than ultra low sulfur diesel. | ||
2010 | Other Environmental Practices - The Sulfuric Acid comes from SO2 that is combusted, the highest sulfur fuel is Diesel. The plant is trying to reduce the use of Diesel as much as possible. | ||
2008 | Source Reduction - There are three ways that the plant is trying to reduce H2SO4; by using less diesel, by using diesel with a lower Sulfur content, and by going to BioDiesel that has a very low sulfur content. Information can be provided by Chuck Barnes |
