New York State is proposing to adopt 6 NYCRR Part 222, 'Distributed Generation Sources' and make conforming revisions to Part 200, 'General Provisions' and Subpart 227-2, 'Reasonably Available Control Technology (RACT) for Oxides of Nitrogen (Nox)' to establish emission standards, monitoring requirements and record keeping requirements for certain DG sources in New York State. The proposed rule will apply to DG sources not currently regulated under Subpart 227-2 or subject to a federal New Source Performance Standard (NSPS), as long as the federal standards are less than or equal to the Part 222 emission limits. NYSDEC Proposed 6 NYCRR, Subpart 222 Distributed Generation Sources Specifically for Reciprocating Internal Combustion Engines For Nox RICE Natural Gas Engines are limited to 1.5 g/bhp-hr and RICE Diesel Engines are limited to 2.3 g/bhp-hr. Particulate for both diesel and natural gas is 0.3 g/bhp-hr or 85% reduction. An annual tune-up for all engines is required by New York State Department of Environmental Conservation. The compliance by May 1, 2016, the beginning of the “ozone season”. Operators can request a one (1) year extension due to hardship circumstances or if the site already took part in a formal 2015 demand response program.

South Coast Air Quality Management District sets plan to control NOx from 17,000 small sources
Fifteen stationary source measures and 15 mobile source measures, anticipated to be adopted and implemented in the next 10 to 15 years will assist in attainment of the 8-hour ozone standard by 2031 together with CARB’s measures and reductions from federal sources. Twelve stationary source measures target NOx reductions that are further grouped into measure types: co-benefits from climate programs, incentive measures, additional stationary sources measures, and other measures. Three stationary source measures focus on limited, strategic VOC reductions and four additional measures have corresponding VOC reductions from other ozone or PM measures. SCAQMD’s mobile source measures include one emission growth management measure and 14 mobile source measures that are further grouped into four facility-based mobile source measures, five on-road and four off-road source measures, and one incentive program measure. Section 182(e)(5) of the CAA allows “extreme” ozone areas to include measures in their Plan that rely on the development of new technology or advancement of existing technology. These are sometimes referred to as black box measures. The 8-hour ozone measures in the 2016 AQMP specify current opportunities for emission reductions and thus are designed to reduce the reliance on the Section 182(e)(5) commitments in the 2007 AQMP NOx Combustion Sources Equipment # of Units A 372 Boilers, 2,511 Dryers 218 Flares , 175 Furnaces , 753 Heaters ,770 Incinerators . 192 Ovens 174 Stationary ICEs , 12,928 Turbines

AIG Tuning, Catalyst for Life Forecasting
Many gas-turbine “bubble” units installed between 2000 and 2004 are operating with their original charge of SCR catalyst. These units have outlived the original catalyst warranty (typically three years) and have benefitted from a combination of conservative design and good luck. However, as these systems reach the decade mark, the design margins have diminished because of gradual (and inevitable) deactivation of the catalyst with age. As the catalyst nears its end of life, ammonia slip begins to increase exponentially. There are practical steps operators can take to avoid this scenario.
