Discussion 40 CFR Parts 60 and 63 - (NESHAP) for the Portland Cement Manufacturing Industry and Standards of Performance for Portland Cement Plants - Meet Standard by 2015 EPA Utility MACT (40 CFR Part60, Subpart UUUUU, EPA – 1,350 Units Affected Continuous Monitoring (HCl) from new and existing coal and oil-fired (HF) emissions Cement - 3 ppmv HCl, (3.8 mg/M3 @ 7% O2), EGU – 1 ppmv HCl Instrument HCl Quantification - Rule of Thumb 20% below Emissions Regulation, So need 0.2 ppm Current MKS FTIR is 50 ppb Use Performance Specification 15, App B and Procedure 1 of Appendix F until new PS (20 yrs. old) New PS-18 in development specific to HCl (Spring 2014) Initial Instrument Qualification On-going QC promulgated separately

Performance Specifications for FTIR CEMS PS-15 For Extractive FTIR CEM Systems in Stationary Sources Reference Method RATA Run Comparisons – Follow PS 2 Specifications and Test Procedures for SO2 and NOX CEM in Stationary Sources – WILL BE CHANGED (M320/ASTM D6348-12) Draft PS-18 and Test Procedures for HCl CEMS in Stationary Sources - Spring 2014 Tests on-going at EPA RTP-NC NIST traceable standards now available 1-20 ppmv Bal N2. EPA has a 1 ppm NIST traceable standard. We match against HITRAN - High Resolution Transmission -Air Force Research Laboratories (1960s) Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, Cambridge MA, USA. Worldwide standard of atmospheric molecular transmission and region of the EM spectrum

FTIR Reference Methods for CEMS Validation and RATA Method 301—Field Validation of Pollutant Measurement Methods From Various Waste Media Method 320* - Measurement of Vapor Phase Organic and Inorganic Emissions by Extractive (FTIR) (Includes FTIR Protocol) Method 321** - Measurement of Gaseous HCl Emissions at Portland Cement Kilns by FTIR Spectroscopy ASTM D6348-12 Standard Test Method for Determination of Gaseous Compounds by Extractive Direct Interface Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy *1 of 2 RM for EGU **Only acceptable RM for Portland Cement MACT

Validation and On-Going HCl CEM PS-18 Before Installation, instrument manufacturer must perform: Linearity Detection Limit Cross Sensitivity After Installation to Validate must perform: RATA Test on Other than HCl compounds Reference Method Test HCl - EPA-M321 RATA Includes Dynamic Spike 7 day drift test Daily and On-Going (all automated) Zero Dynamic Spike or Dry Cal Span (Wet or Dry) Periodic RATA Provide 30 day rolling avg HCl

Advantages of FTIR No training needed Measurements done Hot-Wet Required for polar components HCl, HF Works with High CO2 and H2O No Chemical Conversions Multiple components Simultaneously THCs, HCl, HF, VOCs, NOx, SO2, etc. Additional components: No hardware change Can be added in the field Simple Operation No daily maintenance No Daily Calibration High sensitivity gas cell small volume (200mL) long path length (5.11m) No training needed Software alerts to any malfunction Only laser replace and cell cleaning Fast (1 Hz or 5 Hz)

What is FTIR? Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (Spectrometry) Fourier Transform: mathematical conversion from the time domain to the frequency domain Infrared: Low energy wavelengths longer than visible light (heat) Spectroscopy: study of the electromagnetic spectrums electrical and magnetic fields FTIR uses an “Interferometer” -- a device which splits focused light, optically retards it and recombines it to produce an optical interference pattern resulting in an Interferogram. A computer converts the Interferogram to an Absorbance spectrum which is Linear

MKS IR Spectroscopy Hardware Source: Blackbody (Hot Silicon Carbide ~ 1300 K) Modulator: Interferometer Sample: Vapor (Gas Cell, 10, 5.11m, 35cm, or 2cm path lengths) Detector: Mercury Cadmium Telluride (MCT) Quantum Detector cooled by Thermoelectrically (TE) Peltier

The FT-IR Light Modulator Creating the Interferogram HeNe Laser monochromatic light Fixed Mirror Beamsplitter Moving Mirror Optical Retardation - difference between the distance the light travels in the two arms of the pathway above. If the difference is 0 (same length of travel) there will be Constructive interference (all light passes to the detector) otherwise there is interference between the beams and less light gets to the detector. At 1/4 wavelength displacement of the moving mirror the optical retardation is 1/2 wavelength which causes destructive interference and no light reaches the detector. Constant velocity movement of the mirror causes a sinusoidal response seen by the detector. Laser light is very narrow and is used to calibrate the exact positions of when the Zero crossing occur. IR Source To Gas Cell & Detector

FTIR From Igram to Spectrum Create Interferogram then send to detector (Modulator) Amplify Interferogram (preamp) then digitize it (A/D converter) Send digital signal to computer (PC) Apply Fourier Transform math to Interferogram, result is Spectrum (I) Remove background noise signals (Io) from Sample (I) Result is Absorbance gas spectrum (A) used to identify the different species Show full water region

Background and Sample Absorbance = - Log (I/Io) BACKGROUND (Io) N2 Purge SAMPLE (I) 1000 ppm NH3 Single Beam Background N2 purging instrument then background collected (eg. is 1cm-1) Single Beam Sample Sample gas flowing through cell (eg. is 1000 ppm NH3 at 1cm-1) Absorbance = - Log (I/Io)

Absorbance is Proportional to Concentration Absorbance = - Log (I/Io) Absorbance =  • C • path FFT of Sample 1000 ppm NH3

FTIR Analysis Method Analytical Method Classical Least Squares (CLS) then Beers Law, Abs = a b c  measured spectrum a absorptivity coefficient or ε  from calibration b path length  fixed (5.11 meter) c sample concentration (calculated)  what we want Canned Method - No user input necessary Hot and Wet, No sample change – No ionization No pressure drop across sample cell 1 scan/second - 1 data point every 30 seconds 40 sample cell turnovers per minute Self -validating sample method Cement – Only acceptable reference method EPA M321
