New Air Compliance Requirements for Boilers & Process Heaters - NESHAP - New Dedicated Website to Help with the Complexities

from the Innovative Controls Group at Cross

Strata-G, Process Engineering Associates, and Innovative Controls have teamed together to help you navigate the complexities of NESHAP - the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants.  The new wesbite is http://www.boilersolution.com/.  Each member bring specialties to the table:

StrataG - Compliance Support and Performance Testing

• Applicability determination
• Compliance verification status with the emission standards
• Advise on compliance option
• Performance test planning and execution
• Compliance plans, recordkeeping and reporting
• Energy Audits

Process Engineering Associates - Air Pollution Control Device Evaluation & Selection

• Upfront evaluation of combustion system from energy efficiency / lowering emissions perspective
• Evaluation of emissions control options
• Identification of most favorable options
• Development of process design information
• Vendor coordination

Innovative Controls - Process / Emissions Monitoring & Control Optimization

• Controls programming on virtually any platform to meet the new standards
• Emissions monitoring acquisition and recording system
• Compliance reporting
• Advanced process control implementation
• Control System FEED studies
• Short and long term process controls support

NESHAP provisions include numerous options that can have a significant impact on the forward path and compliance cost.  Examples include:

• comply with emission standards based on heat input vs steam output
• take advantage of emission credits earned from implementing energy conservation measures identified during the required energy assessment
• utlize the air pollution control techniques prescribed in the rule vs selecting and alternative system configuration

Addressing these issues will take expertise and that's exactly why these 3 groups, with a multitude of technical disciplines, have come together.  Collectively, this team of professionals offer a wide spectrum of expertise in regulatory compliance, energy management, combusion optimization, air pollution control evaluation and design, process control and monitoring, and performance testing specifically tailored to compliance with the new boiler NESHAP rules.

Engineers & Consultants have collaborated on similar type projects for industrial clients with combustion systems, and theses companies share a common mission --> to provide high quality services at very competitive rates.
