BATON ROUGE NORTH WORKS INDUSTRIAL CHEMICALS DIVISION
ALLIED CHEMICAL CORPORATION
REVISED AIR COMPLIANCE SCHEDULE
I. GENERAL
One of the principle products at this location is soda ash (sodium carbonate) a white powdery dust product. The production pf this product involves the following operations: calcining, conveying, grinding, screening, packing and loading. The effect from this operation creates a fugitive particulate (dust) problem and our compliance schedule for abatement puts heavy emphasis on dust collection systems.
The Works testing program has been primarily for dust fallout within its battery limits. The reason for this measurement is due to the relatively large and dense particles which agglomerate in a humid atmosphere and falls as fugitive dust within the perimetry of the Works.
Relative to ambient standards, it is believed that fugitive particulate (dust) falls out much nearer source than can be predicated by dispersion calculations. There is also a question on the value of dispersion calcu lations considering the multiple sources involved in an industrial complex. The dispersion calculations should incorporate valid point source data, accountability for all variables (meteorology)and computer programs applicable to the problem. The above technique and expertise was not available at this location so that no dispersion calculations were made.
Dust fallout data over the last year indicates the soda ash fugitive dusts settle out and meet the state ambient in a distance of less than a quarter of a mile from the source and, in general, within the boundaries of our plant. Limestone dust settles at a much faster rate.
Attached for reference to this revised compliance schedule is the schedule submitted on August 23, 1972.
II. PilSSIQN STANDARDS
Section 18.0 - Smoke Control
1) General burning of natural gas as fuel for power generation, calcining soda ash and cracking is in compliance. These operations use natural gas which seldom produce smoke.
2) Emission of smoke from vertical kilns during intermittent charging operations is in compliance. Charging of each kiln with limestone and coke seldom exceeds RangeImann 1.
ASI-PR 0004179
-2-
3) Smoke generated in decoking of furnace tubes in the vinyl chloride monomer operation is not in compliance.
a. The furnace tubes are heated and blown with air and steam twice per month for 18 hours each time. During the initial stage cf this operation Ringelmann 1 is exceeded for a period of._LS*20----^ minutes. After the initial period during intermittent (spa lling^v with air, the smoke does not exceed Ringelmann 1 for morS thafT^^ four minutes in sixty consecutive minutes.
b. The decoking procedure is a shutdown and start'-up operation and on this basis we are asking the commission to approve compliance status under exemption 18.4 and/or 18.6.2 based on the limited amount of smoke being emitted in an unpopulated area of the plant.
4) Flaring of Ethane and Ethylene from brine well storage system near Plaquemine, Louisiana is in compliance.
a. Pressure release venting for repair of lines, etc., does not cause smoke to exceed Ringelmann 1 more than an aggregate time of six hours in any ten consecutive days. The location for this operation is in an unpopulated area.
5) Smoke emission from Test Burning of Standby Fuel Oil for power generation is in compliance.
a. The standby fuel oil facilities are tested periodically for readiness in event of a natural gas outage. The smoke emitted during the changeover from gas to oil will be controlled within the limit of four minutes in any sixty consecutive minutes.
6) Flaring of gases from the Dichloroethane (EDC) and vinyl chloride operation is in compliance.
a. Smoke emission from flaring during this operation does not exceed Ringelmann 1 more than an aggregate time of six hours in any ten consecutive days.
7) Smoke emissions from Lead Melting Furnace is in compliance.
a. The lead recovery process used for rebuilding diaphragm cells contains some organic matter which burns off in the lead melting furnace. The smoke generated during this operation will be controlled so that a Ringelmann 1 will not be exceeded for more than four minutes in sixty consecutive minutes.
ASI-PR 0004180
Seotion 19.0 - Particulate Control
-3-
1) Soda ash loading operations into ships and barges--fugitive dusts are believed to bo in complaince as indicated by fallout sampling over the past year.
Light Ash Loading - Process weight 175 tons/hr. Emissions allowable 56 Ibs/hr.
Dense Ash Loading - Process weight 250 tons/hr. Emissions allowable 60 lbs/hr.
The loading operation is located in a remote area fan the east bank of the Mississippi River. The shipping area is dusty during the loading operation, however, the dust fallout is within ambient standards. Data shows 13.8 tons/square mile/30 days at the south property line station and 5.8 tons/square mile/30 days soda ash at the north property line station.
Ambient state standard is 20 tons/square mile/30 days.
2) Salt drying, conveying and loading operations are in compliance.
Process weight Emission allowed Stack tests on wetscrubber
25,000 lbs/hr. 22 lbs/hr. 3 lbs/hr.
3) Decoking of furnace tubes in the vinyl chloride monomer operation are in compliance.
Process weight Dnission allowed Calculated emissions
20,000 lbs/hr. 19 lbs/hr. 6 lbs/hr.
The furnace tubes are heated twice per month for 18 hours. During this time the tubes are blown with air and steam for one to two minutes every thirty minutes. Estimate 200 lbs. carbon is half burned and blown out during each 18 hour period.
4) Lime slakers producing milk of lime are in compliance.
Process weight
Particulate emissions allowed Estimated omissions
1,650 tons dry lime + 5500 tons water per day
62 lbs/hr. None visible
(steam)
5) Vertical lime kilns during charging operations are believed to be in compliance.
Process weight Particulate emissions allowed
2,640 tonslimestone and 210 tons coke per day
52 lbs/hr.
ASI-PR 0004181

These emissions, mostly fugitive, are believed to be in compliance as estimated by visual observations and evaluation of fallout data taken over the last year. Data shows less than the 20 tons/square mile/30 days (state requirement) at the Work's battery limits.
6) Other sources of particulate fugitive dust and their respective compliance schedules were designated as Plans 1-4 and were submitted to the Air Control Commission on August 23, 1972(see attached). Following is a review of emission data in these plans.
Plan 1 - Design and install new dust collecting system^ on lime kilns discharges and conveyors.
Process weight Particulate emissions allowed Estimated emissions
1650 tons/day 47 lbs/hour
260 lbs/hour
Expected emissions after installation of planned equipment -

Section 20.0 - Incinerator Standards
Question 1 through 4 under incinerator compliance schedule guidelines are not applicable as refuse is used for land fill.
Section 21.0 - Fuel Burning Equipment Standards
This item is not applicable as natural gas is used for steam and power generation.
Section 22.0 - Volatile Organic Compound Control
A supplemental schedule will be submitted based on federal approval of state regulations, as per guideline instructions.
Section 24.0 - Sulfur Dioxide Control
Sulfur dioxide from combustion of natural gas at Baton Rouge North Works and ethane gas at our brine wells near Plaquemine, Louisiana are in compliance.
Both natural gas and ethane contain less than 1 ppm sulfur. The resulting combustion products are within state standards at the property lines.
Section 25.0 - Carbon Monoxide Control
Carbon monoxide from vertical kiln operations. In compliance based on being an existing operation and classified as a priority III region.
Section 26.0 - Nitric Acid Industry Standards
Not applicable industry.
III. AMBIENT AIR STANDARDS
Section 9.0 - Suspended Particulate Level Control and Section 10. 0 - Dustfall Level Control
In reference to both of the above sections, as previously indicated, our problem area is fugitive dust. These fugitive dusts, soda ash and limestone, are relatively large, heavy particulate which settle rapidly after becoming airborne. Except for areas adiacent to the SDecific
-6 operation our dust fallout data indicates complaince. However, in areas where compliance is not met, our original submitted compliance schedule should result in a reduction of particulate to meet state ambient standards. Section 11.0 - Outdoor Burning Standards Section 12.0 - Sulfur Dioxide Level Control Section 13.0 - Carbon Monoxide Level Control Section 16.0 - Nitrogen Oxide Level Control These above parameters (Sections 11.0, 12.0, 13.0 and 16.0) are in compliance or are not applicable as reported in the emission standards section. Section 14.0 - Hydrocarbon Level Control Section 15.0 - Oxidant Level Control A supplemental schedule covering Sections 14.0 and 15.0 will be submitted based on Federal approval of state regulations, as per guideline instructions. IV. INCREMENTS OF PROGRESS Increments of progress are given in the attachment of the original compliance schedule submitted. Periodic progress reports will be made to the Technical Secretary on the status of BRNW compliance schedule at six month intervals.

Louisiana Regulations 22 and A22 (Con trol of Volatile Organic Compound Emisr

egyThe amendments to 40 CFR 52.973(b)
set forth below are designed to clarify the
meaning of certain terms used In the regulation, to correct the Agency's inad
vertent failure to expressly exclude ethylene producers from the regulation, and to correct a cross reference. The
Intended applicability of the regulation Is also clarified by the exemption of cer tain organic compounds which are known
to have little or no photochemical re
activity. This notice also Includes revisions to
the regulation for review of new and modified sources promulgated for Louis iana on October 28, 1972. These revi sions allow the Administration to waive requirements for performance tests after the new or modified source commences operation. It Is recognized that compli ance with applicable emission limita tions can be determined in certain cir cumstances without the need for per formance testing. Also, the list of sources
exempt from the new source review re quirements Is expanded to cover addi
tional sources of minor pollutant contri bution. The- emissions from the additional sources exempted are similar In magnitude to those sources already exempt and are considered to have an Insignificant effect on air quality.
Amendments are also set forth below changing the latest dates for attainment of the national ambient air quality stand ards for sulfur oxides and particulate matter In Texas. The Texas implementa tion plan, which contained conflicting statements concerning the intended at tainment dates, has subsequently been
clarified by the State by supplemental Information submitted on November 10, 1972. Accordingly, the latest attainment
date for the primary standards has been changed from December 1973 to July 1975, which is consistent with the Clean Air Act and with clarification provided by the State. The dates are underlined because a specific month was not pro vided and were therefore specified by ERA. The supplemental Information In dicated that secondary standards would be attained within "reasonable time"; however, no date was provided. The par ticulate matter and sulfur oxides control strategies for the secondary standards do not require the application of control technology beyond that which Is rea
sonably available. Thus, the latest talnment date for secondary standards Is prescribed as July 1975, as required by 40 CFR 51.13(b)(1),
The attainment date table for Texas Is also corrected to Indicate that the sul fur dioxide air quality levels in the five priority III Regions (Austin-Waco In trastate, Brownsville-Loredo Intrastate,
Metropolitan Dalias-Fort Worth Intra state, Metropolitan San Antonio Intra state, and the Texas portion of the Shreveport-Texarkana-Tyler Intrastate Region) are "presently below secondary standards." The attainment dates for the sulfur dioxide ambient air quality stand ards for these Regions were erroneously listed as December 1973.
Since the amendments have no signifi cant effect on the attainment or mainte nance of national standards and impose no additional regulatory burden, the Agency finds that good cause exists for not Issuing a notice of proposed rule mak ing, Inasmuch as it is unnecessary and for making the amendments effective February 8, 1973 without a deferred effective date.

5) Copy of LCA letter to EPA and newspaper report of recent Louisiana Air Control Meeting.
The latest Information received (12/7/72) on the volatile organics
issue is the probable revision by EPA towards the LQk's proposed plan with state support on the waste gas disposal clause for ethylene users.
In view of the confusion between LCA, State Air Control Cooanlsalon and EPA on ths athylane users exemption, development of a compliance plan for organics la in question. Under the waste gas disposal clause developed by LCA with state approval, BRNW may be exempt and In compliance with the state plan which proposes that "any waste gas stream containing organic compounds from any ethylene producing plant or other ethylene emission source shall be burned at 1300F (704C) for 0.3 second or greater in a direct flame afterburner or an equally affective device. This section does not apply to emergency reliefs and vapor blowdown systems." The state has accepted the LCA'3 addition to the above for ethylene users which says "all waste streams from ethylene user plants which contain 5X by voluae or more ethylene and which will support their own combustion In air shall be disposed of by burning or other acceptable means. The Commission may waive
