Attention Boiler Owners

11. Boiler MACT Now In Effect, Despite Efforts To Delay It; Facilities Must Meet Work Practice Standards By March 21 2/3/2012

    THOMASVILLE, Ga.  – The District of Columbia Circuit Court of Appeals has reinstated the original compliance date for the Boiler MACT (maximum achievable control technology, also known as BMACT or Major Source Rule) that the EPA published in the Federal Register in March 2011. 

12. Dry Sorbent Injection With Trona Or Sodium Bicarbonate For HCl Treatment 1/22/2012

SOLVAir Solutions conducted controlled pilot tests using CAPP coal which demonstrates the selectivity of sodium sorbents to remove HCl in a medium to high sulfur environment.
