- Description
- Solicitation •a. Source Description : The primary source is an ordinance incinerator referred to as a Static Detonation Chamber (SDC), using electricity as the heat source, coupled to an off-gas treatment unit (OGT). The OGT combustion source will be a natural gas-fired thermal oxidizer exhausting through a spray dryer, bag house, acid and neutral scrubber system, re-heater and a packed-carbon-bed filtration unit. Sampling will take place downstream of the ID fans, immediately prior to the stack exit, where the sample matrix is expected to be fully saturated and between 170-180F degrees at approximately 40% moisture. The sample stream will be under positive pressure and particle size will be minimal (<5 microns). The stack diameter at the sampling location will be 14" in diameter with a 3" ring of thermal insulation. The sampling location is approximately 14 feet above ground level. The overall height of the stack is 52 feet. A standard 3" sample port, 6" in length, with ANSI Class 150 flange will be provided by WA for the sample probe assembly. •b. Instrument Location and Support Systems : The CEMS cabinet, as well as the associated sample lines, will all be housed in a monitoring house provided by WA. The monitoring house will have dual HVAC units to ensure continuous climate control. A portion of the stack will pass through the monitor house. It will penetrate the floor of the monitoring house and run through the roof and exhaust well above the monitoring house. The upper and lower stack penetrations will be sealed. This arrangement will allow sample line length to be kept to a maximum of 20 feet. WA will provide 120 volt, 60Hz power from an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) system. There will be four (4) separate 20 amp circuits available for this system. WA will also provide data acquisition abilities through the use of 4-20mA loops and discrete dry contact digital signals. The Contractor shall provide WA with any additional analog or discrete I/O signals necessary to operate the system in excess of those described in Section I, Item d. WA will also provide a zero grade (contaminant free) instrument air supply to the monitoring shelter for use by the CEMS. Delivery pressure can be maintained in excess of 45 psig at all times. The Contractor will be responsible for installing piping from the WA provided supply point to the CEMS unit. The Contractor will provide a gas cylinder rack and will install gas lines in the monitoring house as necessary to support the needs of the CEMS unit. WA will provide CEMS calibration gas as required. •c. Monitoring System Component Description : The CEM system should include detectors for CO and O2 housed in separate redundant analyzers (A and B) stacked in the same cabinet. Each analyzer should contain three detectors as follows: •· CO Low Range (CO-L) 0 - 200 ppm •· CO High Range (CO-H) 0 - 3000 ppm •· Oxygen 0 - 25% The preferred analyzers will be Teledyne API Model 300EM. Equivalent substitutes for CO, if considered, must utilize the non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) detection method with Gas Filter Correlation as based on the Beer-Lambert law. Oxygen detectors must utilize the Paramagnetic technology and sample the matrix on a dry basis. The units will have the capability to be calibrated manually or automatically. The auto calibration feature must be able to be manually initiated (turned off and on) by the operator in the field through interface with the instrument. Additionally, the analyzer shall have the ability to auto range from the CO-L to CO-H when/if CO levels exceed 200ppm and send a discrete dry contact digital signal output to the PLC when this occurs. The CEMS will be used for compliance under 40CFR63 Subpart EEE (MACT) requirements. To ensure compliance with the Appendix to Subpart EEE (QA procedures for CEMS used for Hazardous Waste Combustors) monitors that automatically adjust the calibration data to the corrected calibration values must record the unadjusted concentration measurement prior to resetting the calibration, if performed, or record the amount of the adjustment. It is expected that the analyzers will be able to successfully complete a 7-day Calibration Drift (CD) test, Calibration Error (CE) test, and Response Time (RT) test. At a minimum, the 7-day CD test must be conducted as part of the Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) and the results provided to WA upon completion for review. The system shall include the necessary sample delivery system to transport the sample from the stack to the analyzers. The sample probe shall be stainless steel (316SS or equivalent) and connected to a 3/8" three-way valve (or tee) to allow for calibration gas to be delivered as close to the distal end of the probe as feasible. Three-way valve configuration shall be as follows: •· 3/8" - probe in to stack •· 3/8" - heated sample line to analyzers •· ¼" - calibration gas inlet The sample probe assembly will mate to a 3" ANSI Class 150 flange at the stack sample port. The cabinet shall contain the necessary valves, flow meters, solenoids and/or switches to control zero, mid-level and hi-level (span) calibration gas flow to the probe during calibration cycles, Calibration Gas Audits (CGAs), or other testing. This panel shall be permanently labeled with the appropriate designations for each device and the gas controlled. Sample line shall be heated with 120 volt, 10W/ft heat tracing in a bundle and additional lines should be added to the bundle for exhaust and a spare sample line in case of future needs. The cabinet should also include the necessary support equipment for the sample delivery and conditioning system. It is anticipated that WA will perform Relative Accuracy (RA) testing on both analyzers to allow for dual certified units sampling the matrix in the event one is unavailable due to maintenance. As such, the sample pump shall be of adequate size to provide enough sample flow to run both analyzers simultaneously with no difficulty. The sample pump shall be a positive displacement, dual-head diaphragm type, such as made by Air Dimensions, Inc., and must be designed for continuous duty operations with little to no maintenance required. Any sample pump substitutes considered must meet these requirements as well as provide for 100% oil free, leak free and contamination free sampling. The sample delivery system shall also include a means of venting excess gas flow backpressure to minimize response time and provide higher stability for analysis. The sample conditioning system should include a dual-pass chiller with capacity to handle sample flow of at least 2 liters/minute. This double phase conditioning system shall consist of one negative chamber and one positive chamber. The chiller system shall also contain a coalescing filter with moisture sensor. The thermoelectric chiller shall be able to maintain sample temperatures around the 35-40F degree range with the sample flows mentioned above. The unit shall contain a built-in temperature display and the display shall be located and labeled accordingly in the cabinet. The chiller system shall contain a peristaltic pump capable of removing the condensate from the impingers to a collection system. The moisture removal system shall contain a bypass to facilitate pumping the condensate away from the cabinet in lieu of using the collection system. The cabinet shall also have a touch-screen panel PC installed to allow for user interface and data acquisition. The WA PLC will interface with a Process Data Acquisition and Recording System (PDARS) for official compliance reporting purposes. The panel PC shall have the ability to track data for use by field technicians for troubleshooting and interface with cabinet instrumentation as necessary. No special reporting software will be needed as the WA PDARS system will be responsible for compliance reporting. Data storage capacity for the panel PC shall be a minimum of seven (7) days. All major cabinet components will be of a plug-and-play (modular) design to allow for rapid replacement in the field at the discretion of the WA operators in the event troubleshooting activities will place undue burden on the production schedule. •d. Signal Transmission Capabilities : The cabinet shall contain adequate termination points for incoming or outgoing signals on terminal strips or plugs. Each analyzer shall have 4-20mA outputs for each channel monitored. The cabinet shall also have discrete dry contact signals for the status of the analyzer and/or other cabinet components when critical parameters are out of tolerance as follows: •· Analyzer online/offline (service or calibration) - A and B instruments •· Analyzer in malfunction - A and B instruments •· Calibration gas flow - zero, span1 or span2 (CO units) Critical system component out of tolerance (coalescing moisture, chiller temp fault, etc) that needs immediate operator attention The CEMS unit will have an output that is capable of interfacing with the PLC. This interface will serve as a RCRA Feed Prohibited Interlock (FPI) to limit or restrict the normal operation of the SDC unit if the CEMS is not operating within its normal operating parameters. Additional digital signals may be provided as necessary to ensure the system will be monitored for any parameter necessary to ensure continuous operation. All digital signal requirements shall be communicated to the WA Engineering Department to ensure adequate I/O is designed into the WA PLC system. WA Engineering shall be notified of any discrete dry contacts to be provided by WA. •e. Spare Parts : The Contractor shall provide a complete parts list of all components and/or sub-assemblies with manufacturer name and part number information along with a suggested list of spare parts to minimize downtime. The spare parts list should include suggested quantities to keep on hand for a one-year period of normal continuous operation. •f. Deliverables : The Contractor shall provide WA a drawing package for major components and sub-assemblies to facilitate WA personnel conducting maintenance and repairs. This drawing package will include the following drawings at a minimum: •· Cabinet General Arrangement and Components •· P & ID Arrangement •· Electrical •· Complete Input/Output (I/O) Mapping •· Sample Probe Detail •· Sample Conditioning System The Contractor shall provide operation and maintenance (O&M) manuals for the major components integrated into the system. This submittal shall include the recommended service intervals, activities and procedures to conduct in order to remain compliant with any warranties or good operating practice for the integrated system to ensure downtime is kept to an absolute minimum. The Contractor shall provide applicable warranty duration for the entire system or separate component assemblies where applicable. The Contractor shall also provide separate details relative to pricing structure, availability and response time for support after the equipment is in operation. This support shall include telephone support and in-field support where applicable
