**************************************************************************
The precipitator shall operate at a [dust collection efficiency of not less
than [_____] percent] [dust loading at the precipitator outlet of not more
than [_____] grams per liter grains per standard cubic foot], as measured
using EPA method 5, when operating continuously at the maximum continuous
rating of flue gas flow conditions and dust loading specified in paragraph
entitled "Inlet Gas Conditions." The collection efficiency shall not be
limited because of variations in dust resistivity levels. Flue gas
conditioning by injection of sulfur-trioxide, ammonia, or other substance
shall not be an acceptable method of achieving performance.
1.5
OPERATING EXPERIENCE REQUIREMENTS
1.5.1
Equipment
Provide dust collectors which meets all of the operating experience
requirements listed below.
1.5.2
Experience Required
**************************************************************************
NOTE: Allow only operating experience treating flue
gas from the equipment specified in paragraph
entitled "Design Criteria" and of the approximate L/s
acfm, temperature and inlet grain loading as that
specified in paragraph entitled "Inlet Gas
Conditions."
**************************************************************************
The manufacturer has constructed not less than three electrostatic
precipitators each at a separate facility, treating flue gas from [a
refuse-fired waste disposal incinerator] [a coal-fired boiler] with
[automatic] [manual] combustion control. Each precipitator shall have
performed satisfactorily, normal maintenance or downtime of the associated
[boiler] [incinerator] [dust collector] included, for a period of not less
than 2 years treating at least [_____] L/s acfm of inlet gas at a
temperature of at least [_____] degrees C F, with inlet dust loading of at
least [_____] grams per liter grains per acf and outlet dust loading of at
most [_____] grams per liter grains per acf.
1.5.3
List of Prior Installations Contents
Submit a certificate from the manufacturer containing the information
outlined below within 30 days after award and prior to commencement of
installation. Information to be contained in the certificate shall include:
a.
A list of at least three installations at separate facilities
meeting the requirements set forth above.
b.
Owner, location, point of contact, and phone number of each such
installation.
c.
Date of owner acceptance of each such installation.
d.
Design inlet gas volume, L/s acfm; inlet gas temperature, degrees C
F; inlet dust loading, grams per liters grains per acf; and
outlet dust loading, grams per liter grains per acf.
