2019 |
Barriers: B7-Barriers to P2 B7 - No known substitutes or alternative technologies.
|
Barriers to P2: B7 - No known substitutes or alternative technologies. - Ammonia is almost exclusively a result of natural gas combustion. |
|
2018 |
Barriers: B7-Barriers to P2 B7 - No known substitutes or alternative technologies.
|
Barriers to P2: B7 - No known substitutes or alternative technologies. - This is primarily from NG combustion. NG is the cleanest technology available at this time |
|
2017 |
Barriers: B6-Barriers to P2 B6 - Pollution prevention previously implemented - additional reduction does not appear technically or economically feas
|
Barriers to P2: B6 - Pollution prevention previously implemented - additional reduction does not appear technically or economically feas - We already have changed fuel source from coal to natural gas |
|
2016 |
Barriers: B6-Barriers to P2 B6 - Pollution prevention previously implemented - additional reduction does not appear technically or economically feas
|
Barriers to P2: B6 - Pollution prevention previously implemented - additional reduction does not appear technically or economically feas - This comes from Natural gas combustion which produces the elast amoutn of emissions for any power source availbel for the plant |

2015 |
Source Reduction:: W42: Substituted raw materials[-25-49%]
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T11: Other
|
W42: Last coal boilers switched to natural gas fired in July 2015. Reduction achieved in emissions. Source Reduction: Source Reduction - Switched the last remaining coal boilers to natural gas firing. |
The Waste Management Hierarchy |
The waste management hierarchy established by the Pollution Prevention Act (PPA) guides waste generators toward the best options for managing wastes.
The preferred option is to prevent pollution at its source, but for waste that is generated, the preferred management methods are recycling, followed
by burning for energy recovery, treatment and, as a last resort, disposing of the waste.
