PRELIMINARY NOTE. SCOPE OF THE DOCUMENT (only for the readers understanding and not to be included

into the permit application) :

This permit application template is a general guide document for the applicant industries that fall under the scope of the activity 1.1. of Annex 1 of the Turkish By-

Law on Integrated Environmental Permit and under the legislation applicable to the combustion plants with a total rated thermal input of 50 MW or more.

The document is to be used by such Large Combustion

Plants (LCPs) and, more specifically, for sites generating electricity from coal (specific remarks are drawn for brown coal-lignite). This is one of the outputs from the

Sectorial Training Missions for the LCP sector performed from September 2012 to March 2013 with the feedback from the team project from the Turkish Competent

Authority, industrial associations of the energy sector

(like EUAŞ, IÇTAŞ, …) and several other experts from the beneficiary country of the Twinning Project TR 08 IB EN

03 “IPPC- Entegre Kirlilik Önleme ve Kontrol”.

Even though great care was taken in the preparation of the document, it is not intended for literal use and it is not a limitative and strict permit application guide since high divergences can occur between different industries and site locations (technological issues, pollution sources, environmental status of the receiving media,

…). Thus, the document is designed to be considered as a helpful tool to prepare the permit application documentation but, anyway, with an open approach allowing to describe every environmental output and risk and to provide a clear framework to the Competent

Authorities who will in this way prepare the integrated environmental permit with a good understanding of the key circumstances and potential risks, according to the

Turkish applicable legislation.

Furthermore, it must be stated that the document assumes that all the European rules (EU Directives, ...) are in force in Turkey and thus, every aspect of the

European regulations are requested. Anyway, transition periods must be taken into account to decide which issues must be included and which must be discarded according to the enforcement in progress in the submission date.

It must be also stated that the scope of this permit application template covers mainly the scope of

Thermal Production Unit (coal storage area + power plant itself, auxiliary and ancillary installations) and it does not specifically cover:

The environmental issues derived from the landfilling of main waste/by-products of normal operation in the combustion unit like “fly ash” from the electrostatic precipitators and/or from the bag house filters or the bottom slag in the combustion units.

Mining (lignite or another type of coal nearby to the power plant and associated to the plant) environmental impacts like leachates from the open working areas that can be drained to a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) in most of the cases, mixed with the industrial wastewater from the LCP installation due to the similarity with the downstream drainage of the coal storage area.

Although this document does not cover these issues, it must be clearly stated that when they are present they must be included in the permit application and permit issuance, since they are key aspects of the global environmental impact of an LCP installation.

To facilitate the assessment of the environmental impacts of the installation, several aspects that may be also included in an Environmental Impact Assessment are requested.

Any doubt about the contents of this document must be clarified in direct consultation to the Competent

Authority for environmental permitting.

We hope the document is a useful tool to a better understanding and implementation of the integrated environmental permitting system.

6.1.

Air Quality assessment and monitoring system 39

The air quality assessment is the main topic in an LCP together with the emissions released through the stack. To assess the air quality (the real one for existing installations or the expected one for new ones) an emission dispersion study on air must be used as a tool 40 . The quickest way to do it, is commonly an atmospheric dispersion study using mathematical models in software packages. Every software model must be carefully selected to fit the situation to be treated.

The modelization tools must have an international recognition and must be capable to reproduce the different phenomena that can take place in an LCP stack dispersion plume event (emission jet, mechanical dispersion, Pasquill-Guifford distribution, chemical degradation for the main pollutants, …).

As a guidance criteria the worst case scenario must be selected to describe the maximum air quality impact expected (according to the topography, meteorology, gas pollutants half-life, …).

The meteorological data from stations in the area must be used in a representative series 41 , as well as atmospheric stability data (normally the classification used follows the Pasquill-Gifford criteria 42 ), height of the mixed layer and topographic relief.

Calculation of annual average hourly and daily exceedances of limit values and average values every eight hours as envisaged in the Directive on Ambient Air Quality and Cleaner Air for Europe 2008/50/EC for NO

and CO must be performed. Also with this procedure and the abacus system the stack height must be calculated and the stack height justified.

With the final results and for the projected stack assess the air quality expected in the area and provide the final position for the air quality stations and the key parameters to evaluate, according to the

Directives and national legislation criteria. At least one air quality station must be placed in the nearby affected population (in general terms if the pollution episodes occur more than 5% of the time in a population, it must be considered as an “affected” area).

39 The requirements stated in section 6.1 (air quality) are a consequence of the framework air quality

Directive 96/62/EC (ambient air quality assessment and management) and IED Directive 2010/75/EU

(Industrial Emissions Directive, Art. 30.1), and their goal is to guarantee an acceptable air quality in the surroundings of the installation. The requirements imply that an air quality monitoring network should be in place, providing throughout the year data on several parameters, some of which have to be provided every 5 or 10 minutes to ensure an acceptable air quality for population and ecosystems.

40 In order to fulfill the requirements of Art. 30.1. of the Industrial Emissions Directive 2010/75/EU

41 According to the criteria of the World Meteorological Organization (United Nations). Please refer to http://www.wmo.int/pages/index_en.html

42 For detail description please refer to http://sti.srs.gov/fulltext/SRNL-STI-2012-00055.pdf

The criteria for every air quality station, number of stations and any other criteria must be explained in the permit application in accordance with the relevant criteria 43 . For existing installations the real air quality results of the stations must be reported in the permit application documentation as stated in the next paragraphs.

AIR QUALITY CONTROL NETWORK: Description and results

According to the European Directive 96/62/EC an LCP must have an air quality control network to ensure that air quality is satisfactory according to the European provisions and, in this case, according to the rules of the Turkish legislation and mainly according to the By-Law transposing the LCP Directive

2001/80/EC.

6.2.

Air emissions

The emissions are a key parameter defining the environmental compatibility or not of an LCP installation, and thus must be described in detail.

The information must be presented to report separately the stationary sources 46 emission levels and the fugitive or surface emissions. Stationary sources are mainly from the main combustion stack sources and fugitive emissions can originate from the dust releases from raw materials (as coal piles, coal storage areas, conveyor belts and similar systems).

6.2.1.

Stationary Sources

To report the stationary emission points, the flow stages must be described. This is done to identify the different combustion gases treatment. In the permit application it must be clearly describeed whether the combustion exhaust gases:

45 Describe the criteria for every parameter measured to display the results related to the relevant criteria for legislation purposes (daily average, maximum values, 24 hour average, seasonal limit value, number of superations for particles, …).

46 Stationary sources usually refers to the emission points where the temperature, the flow amount and the concentration of every pollutant can be evaluated according to the relevant standards for fixed sources, while fugitive emissions occurs as an uncontrolled discharge from a bidimensional source as a unintentional emission.

20





are extracted and sent directly to the atmosphere (in this case indicate the number, position and characteristics of every emission point, as required in the following points,

are sent into successive stages of the treatment for heat recovery, energy optimization or to

pollution abatement into corrective systems (desulphurization, denitrification).

For every source (stack) the technical characteristics must be described, specially those related to the dispersion capacity of the structure like: total height with respect to the ground level and maximum terrain elevation in the surrounding area, effective diameter of the duct (or ducts if several), etc.

If the LCP includes several separated power generation groups, in the permit application it must be clearly stated the relationship between the power generation groups and the separated stacks or ducts.

To describe the gas discharges to the atmosphere every emission stream must be quantitatively described. The description must include the different gaseous effluents generated.

As a guide rule the following data should be provided:

Each Pollutant emitted indicating mass flow [kg/h] and concentration [mg/m³] and operational hours,

Volumetric gas flow emitted by every duct/stack by time unit (e.g.: cubic meters -m 3 - per hour expressed in normal 47 conditions – temperature 0ºC and pressure 101,3 kPa and with respect to an stated oxygen level in the gases -% v/v of O

2

).

Exhaust gases temperature

Exhaust gases stack pressure

Exhaust gases moisture (water content in volumetric percentage).

Furthermore, the emissions abatement techniques must be described and related to the BATs. The emission treatment techniques must be described for every stage. As a guide rule, the following information must be provided.

47 Normal conditions must be clearly stated in the results. Please be aware that normal conditions are different from standard conditions stated in the american standards (where the temperature is normally stated as 20 ºC).

according to the Directive for LCP 2001/80/EC. Anyway, according to the national legislation in force other characteristic levels may have to be reported.

22





For every stationary source a specific Monitoring and Control Plan (MCP) must be reported. The MCP must describe, at least, the following data: Emission point, pollutant, sampling method and frequency, data collection criteria, transmission and registration system. The proposed plan must be submitted in the permit application and may be, in any case, subject to the modifications considered by the

Competent Authority.

Reports

In the LCP and auxiliary installations the diffuse emissions must be identified, quantified and reported.

Description of the sources of fugitive emissions and identification of the substances that may be present in such emissions must be provided, mentioning as well the existence of nearby villages.

Main facilities which are typical sources for fugitive emissions in the LCP sector are:

 Coal storage area (discharge, movements, …),

 Conveyor belts for coal collection to the main boiler in every group, especially if they are not protected against wind influence and particulate matter movement,

 Local transports for coal movement or another dust raw or auxiliary material,

 Ash/slag collection and transport (specially if low granular diameters are transported without rinse or specific protection,

56 Here by “internal” it is meant that the monitoring and control plan samplings are done by the operator of the installation, and “external” means that this task is performed by an external company (accredited company and officialy approved according to the national legislation).

57 For quality assurance purposes the specific standard used for sampling and pollutant determination should be reported. In general terms, according to the EU Directives the EN-standards ( www.cen.eu

) should be preferred (published by the CEN according to the Directives requests). If there is a parameter that cannot be determined by EN standard because it is not yet published, ISO standards ( www.iso.ch

) can be also used. If there is no ISO standard other international well recognised methods can be used (e.g.: other Member States standards, US EPA approved methods ( www.epa.gov/ttn/emc ), Canadian Test

The estimation or calculation method for the calculation of fugitive emissions arising from the installation must be also reported to ensure that the Competent Authority can properly understand the method used by the applicant to assess the pollutant amounts.

The results should be quantitatively expressed as a mass flow (mass per volume –mg/m 3 - units or mass per time units –g/s- for each relevant pollutant.

The direct empirical measurements will be preferred and the indirect estimations will be allowed only when it is not possible to properly quantify by direct sampling and measuring system in the site. For every direct measurement details should be provided and the sampling and analysis plan must be attached to the application report (e.g. authorised company certification, sampling points position, time for every sample, …) to ensure that reliable and representative measurements are reported.

When only indirect emission estimation is possible the internationally validated emission factors (EFs) should be preferred. When EFs are used the permit application report must precisely indicate the source for every EF.

When the installation includes dimensional diffuse sources as coal stockpiles the total dimensions and the quantities being moved must be reported and relevant data about the granulometry 58 , loading and unloading systems, dust preventive aditives used, rinse systems, etc. must be included in the report.

To easily understand how the system works, explanatory drawings must be included indicating relevant receptors, sensible areas, wind directions, stockpile dimensions, conveyor belt distribution and protective systems in the conveyors, etc.

If there is specific national legislation related to the stockpiles dimensions or in the case of limitative criteria for stockpile heights this data must be also reported.

Important note: According to the EU Directives the emission data must be reported in the permit application at: i.

normal operation conditions and also in ii.

abnormal operation conditions (e.g.: If the de-dusting system is not running, when extreme wind and dry conditions are in place, …) and iii.

in emergency or incidental situations (e.g.: in case of short-firing or self-combustion/oxidant conditions)

58 The granulometry for coal and dusting materials are usually reported in terms of aerodynamical diameter and summarized in terms of D50 sizes.

6.3.

Noise emissions to the surrounding and neighbourhood 59 and noise impact

In an LCP installation the noise and vibration issues are normally not a relevant problem, since this kind of installations are usually associated to a coal mine and are located far away from population.

In any case, the permit application must be capable to demonstrate that there is no relevant environmental impact in the surroundings, specially in populated or environmentally protected areas, to be sure that the plant operations are not in conflict with other relevant interests or affecting environmental values.

If it is the case, the operator can submit to the competent authority a certificate of noise control exemption in the permit application, avoiding to submit the relevant information.

If the installation must report the noise and vibration emissions the following previsions can be used as a guide rule but not as limitative or strict criteria:

 For existing installations with a proper permit in force the noise assessment report must be attached to the permit application. When the installation is a new one or substantial changes with an impact on noise occur, the applicant should provide reasonable estimations on how much the noise can vary in the new operational conditions.

 Description of the main activities in the installation (existing or future planned) and the production process characteristics related to the noise emissions,

 Identify the main noise/vibration sources and the machinery or elements associated

 For every element identify if the noise emissions will be continuously produced or in intermittent periods and the characteristics of the noise (impact noise, steam security valves discharges, normal operation, pump operation, civil works, transportation trucks or heavy elements, conveyor belt engines, ...)

 For every element the noise type must be identified and characterised (noise power, frequency bands, …) according to the relevant national rules and international standards (see as an example ISO standards related to the industrial noise characterization).

 Description of the scheduling of activities for main and subsidiary operations within the installation, specifying the timing of activities, such as the possible seasonal nature, duration during the morning, evening and night (please refer to the European Directives for noise control and abatement about the control periods) and if that period is continuous or discontinuous, the operating frequency, the possibility/need during the year that doors or windows are open, simultaneous sound sources, etc.

 Description of noise sources related to the activity, their location and the characterization of each noise in terms of power and frequency band (from 31 Hz to 20 KHz). It is requested that every data for sources will include the indication of the data related to acoustic power or, if not available, sound pressure levels, presence of an impulsive and tonal component, and, if necessary, the directionality of each source.



In situations of uncertainty on project type or location of sound sources to install, emission levels should be estimated by analogy with those from similar sources or according to engineering estimations or comparable sources.

As a summary of the above information requested this table should be filled with appropriate data.

59 The scope of the noise and vibration here refers only to the emissions transmitted outside the installation site.

63 Describe every source for each activity (e.g. pump operation, raw material contact noise, milling engines, crushers, …)

64 To avoid mistakes the UTM system should be preferred. Anyway it must be directly comparable to the general installation coordinates and the attached drawings.

65 Describe the sound pressure in every frequency band according to relevant standards and rules. Normally a 1/3 octave is used (31, 63,125, 250, 500, 1k, 2k, 4k, 8k, 16k, …)

26





After the noise/vibrations source identification a detailed description of receivers must be done and reported. It is especially important to report the relative position (with respect to the noise sources) of the sensitive receptors (hospitals, residences for elederly, schools, green areas, protected fauna areas,

…) in the neighbourhood. Every receptor should be described and identified in terms of the interaction with the discharged sound pressure.

The noise report must be stated to comply with the rules according to the Turkish relevant legislation, taking the data and provisions of this report as a guide rule.
