Don't Let Startup Emissions Slow You Down

In a Power Enginerring article, the authors point out that new combustion turbine (CT) simple and combined-cycle plants face new challenges in permitting because of more stringent startup emission limits. Recent permits issued in a variety of jurisdictions have included limits on startup emissions, both in mass per start and rolling annual startup mass limits for VOC, NOx and CO. The increased use of heavy duty/frame CTs for peaking applications create additional challenges. Startup and shutdown durations and emissions rates vary widely depending on CT model and other plant equipment and design choices.
