LCPs – Large Combustions Plants – what ist a large combustion plant? > 50 MW rated thermal input Irrespective of type of fuel, age and branch Heat used „indirectly“ Turbines > 50 MW 01.10.2012Katrin Panzenböck2
3
Historical developement of directives for emissions into air 1980: Directive of air qualitiy standards for smoke and SO 2 (80/779/EEC) 1984: Air Framework directive – established system of permitting (84/360/EEC) 01.10.20123Katrin Panzenböck
4
Historical developement of legal frames for LCPs 01.10.2012Katrin Panzenböck4 First LCP directive: 1988 (88/609/EEC) – first draught in 1983 Second directive: 2001 (2001/80/EC) – some new Emissions Limit Values (ELVs), Biomass, Gas Turbines considered Integration in the Industrial Emissions Directive, 2010/75/EU which reunites 7 different directives, among them IPPC (integrated pollution prevention control)
5
Other directives/context CAFE (cleaner air for Europe) IPPC 96/61/EG & 2008/1/EG (-> IE- Directive 2010) NEC (national emission ceilings) 2001/81/EG EPER/E-PRTR (European Pollutant Emission Register/ European Pollutant Release and Transfer Register) 01.10.2012Katrin Panzenböck5
6
Goals of LCP-directive 01.10.2012Katrin Panzenböck6 Reduction of emissions of acidifying pollutants, particles, and ozone precursors This means a reduction of SO 2, NO x and dust Part of the overal strategy for the reduction of air pollution in Europe
7
Sectors electricity supply, petroleum refineries, iron & steel industry, chemicals industry, sugar mills, paper mills, …. 01.10.2012Katrin Panzenböck7
8
Age of Plants Depending on when they were first licensed: “existing” plants — before 1 July 1987 “new” plants — licensed between 1 July 1987 and 27 November 2002 “new-new” plants — first licensed after 27 November 2002 : stricter ELVs for SO2, NOx and dust Depending on age different ELVs 01.10.2012Katrin Panzenböck8
9
Fuell Solid fuel Liquid Fuel Gaseous Fuel Biomass ELVs dependent on fuels (AND age AND rated thermal input) 01.10.2012Katrin Panzenböck9
10
Rated thermal input Depending on type of emission different ELVs for different rated thermal inputs Higher rated thermal input -> lower ELVs 50/100/300/500 MW can demand different ELVs, depending on fuel and age 01.10.2012Katrin Panzenböck10
11
SO 2 ELVs (example) Solid fuels, pre 2002-plants (mg/Nm³) 01.10.2012Katrin Panzenböck11

SO 2 ELVs (example) Solid fuels, pre 2002-plants (mg/Nm³) 01.10.2012Katrin Panzenböck12 50 to 100 MWth 100 to 300 MWth > 300 MWth 850400 to 200 linear decrease 200
13
Desulphurisation rate Where SO2 ELVscannot be met due to characteristics of solid fuel used, there is a possibility to apply a minimum rate of desulphurisation rate of desulphurisation=(sulphur not emitted) / (sulphur introduced through fuel) in % 01.10.2012Katrin Panzenböck13
14
Minimum desulphurisation rate MWthPre Nov 2002Post Nov 2002 50-100>60%>92% 100-300>75%>92% 300-500>90%>95% + 400 mg/Nm³ > 500>94% (92% in some cases) >95% + 400 mg/Nm³ 01.10.201 300-5002Katrin Panzenböck14
15
Requierements Member states have to determine total annual emissions of LCPs (old an new) Fuel switching, energy saving plans and pollution abatemet technologies are possible Permit holder has to choose which technology he uses – only ELVs are fixed Countries have individual total emission goals 01.10.2012Katrin Panzenböck15
16
Options to Comply Option 1: Compliance with the ELVs; requires each single plant to comply with ELVs Option 2: Implementing a national emission reduction plan (NERP); including ALL existing plants (excemption opt out)-> average of all plants complies with ELVs Some plants with individual ELVs, some under NERP is possible 01.10.2012Katrin Panzenböck16
17
Single Compliance with ELVs or NERP? NERP: UK, FL, IRE were first Member States to submit plans to the EU Commission by end of 2003 Other Member States that have submitted plans include Czech Republic, Greece, France and Spain 01.10.2012Katrin Panzenböck17
18
Opt out Art 4.4 opt out possible for plants which are operating less than 20,000 h until 31/12/2015 A plant is considered to be operating when any part of it operates, irrespective of the load factor 01.10.2012Katrin Panzenböck18
19
Peak load plants Art. 5.1 – Peak load plants If a plant only operates a limited amount of hours every year, it may be subject to less stringent ELVs 01.10.2012Katrin Panzenböck19
20
Common stack agreed definition is that a collection of plants whose waste gases are discharged through a common stack should be considered to be a single plant With new installations: if it would have been possible to have a common stack -> it counts as one stack -> higher rated thermal input -> lower ELVs 01.10.2012Katrin Panzenböck20
21
Monitoring Continous Monitoring > 100 MW At least every 6 months < 100 MW Derogations: Livespann < 10000 hours SO2: natural gas, oil with known sulfur (calculate), biomass which can‘t exceed SO2- ELVs Dust: natural gas 01.10.2012Katrin Panzenböck21
