1.2 Facility description
Al-Corn Clean Fuel is a fuel-grade dry-mill ethanol plant located approximately one half mile west of Claremont, Minnesota, on Highway 14. The Facility will use up to 1.4 million tons of grain per year to produce 133.2370 million gallons of fuel-grade ethanol (denatured). The primary air emissions are volatile organic compounds (VOCs), particulate matter (PM/PM10/PM2.5), nitrogen oxides (NOX), carbon monoxide (CO), sulfur dioxide (SO2) and hazardous air pollutants (HAPs). VOCs and HAPs are emitted by fermentation, distillation, dried distiller’s grains with solubles, (DDGS) drying, ethanol loading, and VOC liquid storage and piping. Particulate matter is emitted by the DDGS drying, cooling and handling, grain receiving and handling, and vehicle traffic. NOX and CO are emitted by combustion sources. SO2 is emitted from DDGS drying (sulfuric acid is used to clean equipment and added to balance the pH). The facility will be limited to a production capacity of 133.2370 MMGal/year of denatured ethanol; a throughput capacity of 1.4 million tons/year (tpy) of grain, and 440,000 tpy of DDGS.
The primary pieces of control equipment are fabric filters, a wet scrubber, two regenerative thermal oxidizers (RTO), and two flares. The wet scrubber controls emissions from cook, fermentation and distillation units, while two RTOs are used to control emissions from distillation and drying units. Fabric filters control PM/ PM10/ PM2.5
from the grain and DDGS handling and storage systems. There are fourteen large, internal floating roof and fixed roof tanks for ethanol, denaturant, and denatured ethanol storage. The facility uses flares to control VOC emissions from the ethanol loading racks. Fugitive emissions from process valves and piping are controlled through an inspection and maintenance program.
The facility has accepted limits on the amounts of particulate matter, NOX, CO and VOCs that could be emitted to the atmosphere, so that it is classified as a non-major source under the federal New Source Review program (40 CFR § 52.21). The Permittee has also accepted limits on HAP emissions to establish the facility as an area source of hazardous air pollutants (HAPs).

1.3 Description of the activities allowed by this permit action
This permit action is for the issuance of a first-time Part 70 operating permit. This permit authorizes construction and operation of a natural gas combustion turbine with duct burner for combined heat and power, grain storage and handling equipment, expanded rail loading/unloading capabilities, equipment for fermentation, distillation, and product storage, an additional boiler, DDGS dryer, and RTO. The MPCA has a combined operating and construction permitting program under Minn. R. ch. 7007, and under Minn. R. 7007.0800. Under that authority, this permit action authorizes construction. Further, the EPCO Carbon Dioxide Products Inc. facility currently co-located with Al-Corn is expected to cease operations in 2017. However, it is authorized to continue operation.
Following permit issuance, the following changes are authorized to take place at the facility:

1.6 Changes to the permit
Requirements for the new units which will be constructed after permit issuance are discussed in detail in Section 3 of this TSD. The MPCA has a combined operating and construction permitting program under Minnesota Rules Chapter 7007, and under Minn. R. 7007.0800, the MPCA has authority to include additional requirements in a permit. Under that authority, the following changes to the permit are also made through this permit action:
· The permit has been updated to reflect current MPCA templates and standard citation formatting.
· EQUI, STRU, TREA and FUGI data has been updated;
· Some requirements have been reordered to help with clarity (i.e., similar requirements are grouped).
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 01300099-101 Page 6 of 31
Total facility
· Increased ethanol production limits from 50 million gallons per year undenatured ethanol (MGY) to 130 MGY. In addition to the increase in production limits, the production limit on 200-proof un-denatured ethanol (E-100) was changed to a limit on denatured ethanol production. Denatured ethanol production can be tracked more easily because denatured ethanol is the end product of the ethanol refining process, rather than an intermediate product of the process. The redundant denatured ethanol limit at the flare group (COMG 16) was subsequently removed. Daily recordkeeping requirements were also added to track compliance with the production limits.
· Increased grain receiving limit from 518,888 ton/yr 12-month rolling sum to 1.400 million ton/yr. Added daily recordkeeping requirements.
· Increased DDGS loadout limit from 175,080 ton/yr 12-month rolling sum to 440,000 ton/yr. Added daily recordkeeping requirements.
· A requirement was added to the total facility requirements to ensure that denaturant received at the facility is used as denaturant of ethanol only. The PTE of operations such as on-site vehicle fueling can often exceed new source review (NSR) major thresholds.
· Requirements for fugitive emissions from paved roads were moved from the total facility to FUGI 3 – Truck Traffic on Paved Roads.
· Requirements for emissions from when wetcake, a byproduct similar to DDGS, is produced by the facility were moved from the total facility to the new subject item FUGI 8 – Wetcake storage.
· Updated modeling language to reflect most recent modeling analysis. See Section 3.2 for further discussion on the modeling requirements added to the permit.
· As noted in the previous permit, Al-Corn Clean Fuels and the adjacent EPCO Carbon Dioxide Products Inc. facility (now known as Air Products) constitute a single stationary source under 40 CFR 52.21 and 40 CFR 70.2. The previous permit stated that “EPCO operates under a separate air permit, Permit No. 03900031-002”. However, this permit was voided on 3/24/2004 although Air Products continued to operate the source. The facility will be shut down in 2017, with Al-Corn Clean Fuels stating that they will stop delivering carbon dioxide to the Air Products facility by 12/31/2017 (Attachment 9 to this TSD). A requirement was added to the total facility level of the permit requiring Air Products to submit a Part 70 permit application, or Al-Corn Clean fuels to submit a major permit amendment to incorporate the facility if it is not shut down by 12/31/2017. If Air Products ceases operation prior to that date, they shall submit a notification with the date that the facility operations have been permanently disabled. Air Products has no insignificant activities and does not use any emergency generators.
· Removed annual VOC, CO, Single HAP, and total HAP limits of < 95 tpy from the facility. Facility emissions are limited through lb/hr limits at the stacks, and annual throughput limits on grain receiving, ethanol production and DDGS loadout.
· Added tracking requirements for flexibility provisions (equipment labeling and annual report).
Several groups were removed from the permit due to equipment being removed. Further, groups where the requirements in the group apply to the members of the group individually were also removed.
The following groups were removed, with the applicable requirements being verified, updated and moved to the individual subject items:
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 01300099-101 Page 7 of 31
· GP 001 - Baghouse Monitoring and Maintenance
· GP 002 - Scrubber Monitoring and Maintenance
· GP 004: Tanks 1 and 3: EQUIs 137 and 141 were moved to COMG 14 (Emission sources subject to Minn. R. 7011.0715) and COMG 7 (Denaturant tanks subject to Minn. R. 7011.1505), respectively.
· GP 005 – Tanks 2, 4, 5, and 6: EQUI 138 was moved to COMG 7 (Kb Tanks w/ Liquid Mounted Seal), EQUIs 139 and 140 were moved to COMG 14 (Emission sources subject to Minn. R. 7011.0715 (IPER)), while EQUI 142 was moved to COMG 8 (Kb Tanks w/ Liquid Mounted Seal).
· GP 006 – Fuel Requirements: Dryers, Boiler and thermal oxidizer: This group contained the group NOX limit. The three remaining units subject to legacy BACT-equivalent limits all vent to the same stack (STRU 24). The limit of 7.28 lb/hr NOX assumed for modeling and to avoid PSD ensures compliance with the average emission factor of 0.040 lb/MMBtu. Boiler 1 is subject to a different emission factor limit, and is to be removed from the facility after completion of the modification. The other NOX limits at the facility for the generators apply individually to each unit.
The following new groups were created:
· COMG 3 (previously ) - HAPs limit group: Limits total HAPs to ≤ 17.0 tpy, limits acetaldehyde emissions ≤ 9.0 tpy, and limits formaldehyde ≤ 5.0 tpy for associated units. Includes daily recordkeeping and monthly calculations. HAP emission factors are based on performance testing conducted at respective stacks.
· COMG 7 - Denaturant Tanks subject to Minn. R. 7011.1505
· COMG 8 - Kb Tanks w/ Liquid Mounted Seal: NSPS subp. Kb requirements for storage tanks at the facility utilizing liquid mounted seals
· COMG 10 – Combustion turbine and duct burner: Contains NSPS subp. KKKK requirements

· COMG 13 - Kb Tanks w/ Double-seal System: NSPS subp. Kb requirements for storage tanks at the facility utilizing double-seals to mitigate VOC emissions.
· COMG 14 - Emission sources subject to Minn. R. 7011.0715 (IPER).
· COMG 16 - Ethanol Loadout Racks #3 and #4: Process throughput limits and control equipment requirements for the facility’s loadout racks, and requirement that any rail cars be dedicated for transport of ethanol and denatured ethanol.
· COMG 2 (previously GP007) is clarified to apply to diesel generators > 500 hp. The group limits contain updated requirements for 40 CFR pt. 63, supb. ZZZZ and Minn. R. 7011.2300.
Equipment (EQUI) subject item changes and new units:
· EQUI 7 DDGS Loadout: Added daily visible emissions checks and opacity testing to show compliance with opacity limits in Minn. R. 7011.1005, subp. 3(A).

2. Regulatory and/or statutory basis
2.1 New source review (NSR)
The existing facility is subject to limits such that all NSR-regulated air pollutants, other than greenhouse gases (GHG), are less than the major source thresholds for NSR (40 CFR § 52.21(b)(1)).
Al-Corn has an unrestricted Potential-to-Emit (PTE) of more than 100,000 tons per year of GHG (as CO2e, Table 4). The Supreme Court’s Decision in Utility Air Regulatory Group v. EPA ruled that a source cannot be major for NSR based on GHG emissions alone. The facility is not subject to regulation of GHG emissions because the emission totals for all other criteria pollutants are less than the major source thresholds. Therefore, the facility is not considered a major source for NSR.
2.2 Part 70 permit program
This is a first time Pt. 70 permit. The facility from this permit action forward is considered a major source under 40 CFR Section 70.2. The limited PTE of PM10, NOX, CO, and VOC are above the major source threshold for Pt. 70 facilities as shown in Table 4.
2.3 New source performance standards (NSPS)
The following New Source Performance Standards apply to the operations at this facility: Subp. Dc: The new boiler (EQUI 227) has a maximum design heat input capacity of 99.00 MMBtu/hr and is therefore subject to NSPS Subpart Dc, “Standards of Performance for Small Industrial-Commercial-Institutional Steam Generating Units”. The boiler will operate independently of the new turbine and duct burner, although the three units will share a common stack (STRU 52). The existing heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) (TREA 6) is also subject to NSPS Subpart Dc. Because each of the boilers will be fueled with natural gas, only the initial notification and recordkeeping requirements apply for each boiler/HRSG under the rule. Boiler #1 was permanently disconnected prior to permit issuance.

2. See EPA determination dated 11/20/2007 Process Tanks Defined, Control Number: 0800041
Subp. DD: This facility is not subject to 40 CFR pt. 60, subp. DD – Standards of Performance for Grain Handling Facilities. Applicability is based on a grain elevator’s storage capacity, which must exceed 2.5 million bushels for any grain storage facility not for human consumption. The new corn bins (EQUIs 190 and 191) will have a combined storage capacity of 1.5 million bushels. The previous storage capacity (EQUIs 48, 50 – 53, and 64, will be removed) was 817,000 bushels. Therefore, Subpart DD does not apply to the facility before or after the modification.
Subp. IIII: The new emergency diesel fire pump engine (EQUI 211) is subject to 40 CFR pt. 60, Subpart IIII, “Standards of Performance for Stationary Compression Ignition Internal Combustion Engines”. NSPS Subpart
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 01300099-101 Page 12 of 31
IIII does not apply to the facility’s non-emergency generator engines (COMG 2) because the engines were constructed prior to July 11, 2005. Table 11 in Section 3.6 of this TSD gives further information on the applicability of 40 CFR pt. 60, subp. IIII.
Subp. VV and VVa: The Permittee is currently subject to 40 CFR pt. 60, Subpart VV, “Standards of Performance for Equipment Leaks of VOC in the Synthetic Organic Chemical Manufacturing Industry” for facilities constructed before November 2006. The proposed project will trigger NSPS Subpart VVa, “Standards of Performance for Equipment Leaks of VOC in the Synthetic Organic Chemical Manufacturing Industry,” which applies to facilities constructed, reconstructed, or modified after November 2006. Section 60.480a(c) of NSPS Subpart VVa states that, for an existing facility, the “addition or replacement of equipment for the purpose of process improvement which is accomplished without a capital expenditure shall not by itself be considered a modification under this subpart.” Al-Corn has verified that no previous projects have met the definition of a capital expenditure, including the addition of a new fermenter (EQUI 9) authorized by permit action -011, and the addition of a new ethanol day tank (EQUI 144), authorized through the minor permit amendment submitted 12/31/2015. The additional fermentation equipment and storage tanks included in the proposed project will meet the definition of a capital expenditure. Therefore, Subpart VVa requirements were added to the permit at FUGI 5.
Subp. KKKK: 40 CFR pt. 60, subp. KKKK Standards of Performance for Stationary Combustion Turbines. The new turbine (EQUI 225) and duct burner (EQUI 226) are subject to this subpart, and the requirements were added to the permit at the new group COMG 10, Combustion turbine and duct burner. Because the turbine has a maximum heat input above 50 MMBtu/hr (HHV), the turbine is considered part of the “new natural gas turbine (electric generating) with a peak heat input between 50 MMBtu/hr and 850 MMBtu/hr” and is subject to a NOX limit of 25 ppm (15% O2) or 1.2 pounds per MWh of useful output. The duct burner will be subject to the same NOX limit as the turbine (25 ppm) because the turbine and duct burner share a common steam header and stack (STRU 52), and are not independent.
The new boiler (EQUI 227) is not subject to this rule. Although it will share a common stack (STRU 52) with the COMG 10 units, the boiler will be a standalone unit and will not operate as a heat recovery steam generator.
The boiler exhaust will be ducted to the common stack so that the combined COMG 10 emissions can be tested separately from the boiler.
Subp. JJJJ: The natural gas-fired engine (EQUI 28) was installed prior to 2006, thus the requirements of 40 CFR pt. 60, subp. JJJJ do not apply.
2.4 National emission standards for hazardous air pollutants (NESHAP)
The Facility has accepted practically enforceable limits on hazardous air pollutant (HAP) emissions such that it is a non-major source under 40 CFR pt. 63. Requirements include operation of scrubbers, RTO, and a flare to reduce HAP emissions. Other controls taken into account include the liquid storage tanks (floating roofs) and the Leak Detection and Repair program for piping leaks. However, with the Pt. 70 permit application Al-Corn is taking limits on individual and total HAPs to remain an area source. These limits on single and total HAP are placed at COMG 3. The Permittee is required to verify HAP emission factors relied upon in their regulatory determination with recurring performance testing. Thus, no major source NESHAPs apply.
Subp. Q: Cooling towers are not subject to the cooling tower NESHAP which prohibits use of chromium-containing chemicals to treat the cooling water because the facility is not a major source under 40 CFR pt. 63.
Subp. ZZZZ: The facility is subject to the provisions of 40 CFR pt. 63, subp. ZZZZ: National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Stationary Reciprocating Internal Combustion Engines (area source). NESHAP
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 01300099-101 Page 13 of 31
subp. ZZZZ requirements were added to the permit at COMG 2 (CI engines greater than 500 bhp) and at EQUI 28 (SI engines < 500 bhp). Table 11 in Section 3.6 of this TSD gives further information on the applicability of 40 CFR pt. 63, subp. ZZZZ. The new emergency fire pump (EQUI 211) is subject to subp. ZZZZ because it is an emergency generator greater than 500 bhp and will be constructed in 2017 at an area source. Compliance with subp. ZZZZ for EQUI 211 is met by complying with the NSPS subp. IIII.
Subp. JJJJJ: US EPA has promulgated Subpart JJJJJJ to Part 63 to regulate emissions from boilers at area (minor) sources of HAP. A boiler is an existing affected source if construction commenced on or before June 4, 2010. Because Al-Corn only uses natural gas and propane in the boilers (EQUIs 68 and 227) there are no applicable requirements in Subpart JJJJJJ.
2.7 Compliance assurance monitoring (CAM)
There are several units at the facility which have been identified as “Other PSEUs”. Because this is a first time Pt. 70 permit, only information about large PSEUs is required to be submitted. Al-Corn has no large PSEUs as defined by 40 CFR pt. 64. CAM will be implemented for the Other-PSEUs at the facility during permit reissuance.
2.8 Environmental review and air emissions risk analysis (AERA)
The Project will be capable of storing one million gallons or more of a hazardous material. Therefore, an Environmental Analysis Worksheet (EAW) was prepared pursuant to Minn. R. 4410.4300, subp. 10(B). The Project will also be capable of emitting more than 100,000 tpy of greenhouse gas emissions, which requires the preparation of an EAW pursuant to Minn. R. 4410.4300, subp. 15(B). On April 1, 2016, the Al-Corn submitted a draft EAW to the MPCA for the Project. The public comment period for the EAW began on August 15, 2016, and ended on September 14, 2016. A Negative Declaration for the Project was issued on October 3, 2016, stating that the Project does not have the potential for significant environmental effects and an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is not needed.
Al-Corn prepared an Air Emissions Risk Analysis (AERA) and conducted Air Dispersion modeling as required by the MPCA for projects that trigger the preparation of an EAW under Minn. R. 4410.4300, subp. 15(B). The AERA includes a qualitative and quantitative analysis of potential human health risks from exposure to air toxics emitted from the Facility. Cancer and non-cancer risks from inhalation and ingestion exposures were analyzed using the MPCA’s Risk Assessment Screening Spreadsheet. The MPCA concluded that the Project does not present any significant increases in the levels of non-cancer or cancer risk that warrant further study. Assumptions made in the AERA for process throughput, operating times, and emission limits will be implemented as permit limits and requirements. Information on the modeling analysis results are in Section 3.2 of this TSD.

3. Technical information
3.1 Project timeline and removal of old units
Due to the amount of equipment changes the project will be implemented in phases. Requirements for emission units, control equipment, and stacks which will be removed from the facility remain in the permit so that they may still be operated following permit issuance. For each new unit, or stack representing a group of emission units, a requirement was added to the permit to authorize construction within two years of permit issuance. For new units that are replacing old ones, actual operation of the new units is only authorized to begin after permanently removing and/or disabling the piece of equipment which it is replacing. The Permittee will be required to submit notifications with the dates of the equipment removal and actual start of operation. Actual operation is defined in the permit as “as the date that normal process operations commence, and does not include project commissioning activities”. This allows the Permittee to continue ethanol production while the new emission unit groups are being installed and tested.
3.2 Modeling
The Permittee completed an air dispersion modeling analysis to demonstrate compliance with the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS), the Minnesota Ambient Air Quality Standards (MAAQS) and the MPCA air emissions risk analysis (AERA) risk assessment screening spreadsheet (RASS) air emissions analysis. To assess whether the Project will cause or contribute to an air quality violation, the Permittee completed a Significant Impact Level (SIL) analysis for the Project using the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency regulatory plume dispersion model AERMOD. Pollutants modeled in the SIL analysis were SO2, CO, PM10, PM2.5, and NO2. Cumulative dispersion modeling analysis was completed for all receptors greater than the SIL: NO2, PM10, and PM2.5. The modeling results predicted a maximum impact that was below the NAAQS and MAAQS for all pollutants modeled for all averaging times as shown in the Table below:

As a result of the modeling, tiered modeling requirements were added to the total facility requirements for NO2, PM10, and PM2.5 according to the thresholds in Table 9. Tier 3 modeling requirements were added for NO2 and PM2.5, while Tier 2 modeling requirements were added for PM10. The requirements ensure that changes cannot be made at the facility which would affect modeled parameters unless an equivalent or better dispersion modeling demonstration is completed.

The facility relied upon a memo dated 5/16/2011 from Chris Nelson, MPCA manager to remove paved road fugitive dust from the air dispersion modeling analysis. Paved road fugitive dust does not need to be included in the model if the predicted ambient impacts are less than or equal to 95% of the applicable PM10 and PM2.5
standards. Instead, the permit must contain an enforceable fugitive dust control plan or comparable permit conditions. These conditions were added at FUGI 3 – Paved Roads.
3.3 Performance testing at maximum capacity
Performance tests shall be conducted at worst case conditions as defined at Minn. R. 7017.2005, subp. 8. For ethanol production facilities, this means that each process emitting to a tested stack must be operated at maximum capacity during testing. However, it is often difficult at an ethanol facility to determine maximum capacity, or to always achieve maximum permitted capacity. Language was added to all performance testing requirements to ensure that short-term production rates relied upon to determine compliance with lb/hr emission limits are not exceeded. An Appendix C was also added to the permit which lists the process parameters that must be tracked during each performance test. These limits are used to define expected worst case conditions according to Minn. R.7017.2025 subp. 3(A).
Following the initial performance tests, if the Permittee tests at < 80% of the associated emission limit(s) and the throughput rate during testing is > 90% of the established short-term listed production limit, the Permittee can increase the short-term production limit by 10% without a retest.
3.4 Emission unit and control equipment replacement provisions
Permit flexibility conditions were added that make existing conditions enforceable for replacement and modified control devices and emission units. This may allow the Permittee to make these changes without necessarily triggering a major amendment. The Permittee may only replace or modify individual units which can meet the requirements of the permit. Language was changed at the TREA and STRU levels so that replacement or modified units will be subject to the existing permit requirements. These flexibility provisions were added to the following units:
Replacement flexibility provisions for certain emission units were added to the following stacks:
· STRU 24: Dryers which vent to STRU 24/TREA 6 (RTO)
· STRU 37: Pre-fermentation, fermentation, and distillation process units which vent to TREA 16 and STRU 37 (evaporator, distillation stripper, molecular sieve, liquefaction tank, or beer well).
· STRU 38: Conveyors, elevator legs, drag lines, grain bins or grain-cleaning equipment venting to STRU 38, except for the grain receiving pits (EQUIs 179 - 181).
· STRU 47: Distillation units and dryers which vent to STRU 47/TREA 25 (New RTO)
Replacement flexibility provisions were also added for the following control equipment units:
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 01300099-101 Page 22 of 31
· TREA 17: Grain Handling Baghouse venting to STRU 38
· TREA 18: Grain Milling Baghouse venting to STRU 39
· TREA 19: DDGS Loadout Baghouse venting to STRU 40
· DDGS Conveyance Baghouses (TREAs 20 – 22; venting to STRUs 42 – 44)
· DDGS Storage Silo Baghouses (TREAs 23 and 26; venting to STRUs 45 and 48)
New requirements were added at the total facility level to track equipment replacements using an equipment inventory (Appendix C of the permit).
3.5 Uncaptured grain and DDGS emissions
Emissions from grain and DDGS loading and unloading can be reasonably captured (for example, by closing doors), so these do not qualify as fugitive emissions under New Source Review. To account for these uncaptured emissions, EQUIs were added for Uncaptured Grain Handling - EQUI 223 and DDGS Loadout Uncaptured Emissions - EQUI 224.
The hoods which are used to capture emissions from loading and unloading will need to be evaluated according to Minn. R. 7011.0072. Permit requirements to conduct initial hood certifications for the grain receiving and DDGS loadout areas were added to EQUIs 179-181 – Dump Pits #1-3, EQUI 209 – DDGS Loadout – truck, and EQUI 210 – DDGS Loadout – railcar.
3.6 NESHAP subp. ZZZZ requirements
Specific requirements to comply with NESHAP subp. ZZZZ were added to the permit. Table 11 below gives further information on the applicability of 40 CFR pt. 63, subp. ZZZZ for each of the facility’s generators. Catalytic oxidizers (TREAs 21 - 23) were installed on the generators (EQUIs 56 – 58) to comply with the standard, and applicable control equipment rules and subp. ZZZZ standards were added to the permit at COMG 2.

All engines have displacements of less than 30 liters/cylinder and are therefore required to use diesel fuel that meets the requirements in 40 CFR §80.510(b) for nonroad diesel fuel. None of the engines are used for blackstart purposes, and all are fitted with closed crankcase ventilation systems.
Limited use engine requirements
A limit of 100 hours/yr for each COMG 2 engine was added to the permit in order to designate the engines as limited use only under the NESHAP subp. ZZZZ. By designating the engines as limited use, the Permittee is required to conduct performance testing every 5 years rather than every 3 years for each engine. This limit was relied upon in the modeling exercise and to avoid major source status under PSD.
3.7 New Emergency Fire Pump - EQUI 211
A new emergency fire pump engine will be installed at the facility. The engine will be at an area source of HAPs and is subject to 40 CFR pt. 60, subp. IIII. While the unit is subject to 40 CFR pt. 63, subp. ZZZZ, in accordance with 40 CFR 63.6590(c), the unit meets the requirements of this part by meeting the requirements of 40 CFR pt. 60, subp. IIII. No further requirements apply for emergency fire pump engines under subpart ZZZZ. The Permittee will demonstrate compliance with the NSPS subpart IIII by purchasing an engine certified by the manufacturer to meet the emission limits of the subpart. Best management practices for emergency engine use and testing were also added to EQUI 154. These practices are required in the permit in lieu of including the emergency fire pump in the modeling analysis.
3.8 New emergency use bypass stacks
In addition to the new stacks described above, two ‘emergency’ stacks were also added to the permit. During emergency situations, exhaust from these emission units can be vented to these stacks while these emission units are in the process of shutting down. Use of these stacks will be reported as a deviation and as an excursion:
· STRU 49 – CHP Dump Stack: Turbine (EQUI 225) emissions will vent to this stack during emergency situations only. If the duct burner/HRSG must be shut down, turbine emissions will vent to the bypass stack rather than STRU 52 and the turbine will be shut down as quickly and safely as possible. The duct burner/HRSG (EQUI 226) will not operate when the bypass stack is in use. The turbine and duct burner are uncontrolled at all times so it is not necessary to recalculate the emissions during bypass events.
· STRU 53 – Dryer/RTO Bypass Stack: Dryer (EQUI 218) emissions will vent to this stack during emergency situations only. If the new RTO (TREA 25) must shut down, dryer emissions will vent to the bypass stack and the dryer will be shut down as quickly and safely as possible. Emissions for this period will be calculated as uncontrolled for emission inventory purposes. RTO shutdown events are expected to be infrequent, as the facility’s existing dryer/TO system (EQUIs 47 and 54/TREA 6) has had zero hours of uncontrolled operations in the last three years. When the TO shuts down, the facility shuts down their dryers.
3.9 Consent decree requirements
A Consent Decree was filed with the United States District Court for resolving claims pursuant to Section 113(b) of the Clean Air Act. It was executed on 9/20/2002 and terminated 11/3/2005. The Consent Decree addressed, among other issues, injunctive relief for potential violations of the Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) provisions of the Act for VOCs, PM, PM10, SO2, CO, and NOX. The Consent Decree alleged that the Facility commenced construction of a major emitting facility and major modifications of a major
Technical Support Document, Permit Number: 01300099-101 Page 24 of 31
emitting facility in violation of the Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) provisions of the Act without obtaining the appropriate preconstruction permits nor installing the appropriate air pollution control equipment. As a result of the Consent Decree, the Permittee was required to comply with a Control Technology Plan (CTP) (Attachment 6 to this TSD) and compliance limits which were placed in the permit.
The Consent Decree was terminated 11/3/2005 after all control equipment had been installed according to the Consent Decree and CTP. The Permittee had completed annual performance tests in accordance with the Consent Decree and CTP, with the test results meeting Consent Decree and air permit limits.
Emissions from certain processes at the facility remain subject to the Consent Decree and CTP requirements, including units that are subject to BACT-equivalent controls as a result of the Consent Decree. A detailed analysis of the BACT-equivalent limits in the permit is included as Attachment 7 to this TSD.
3.10 Biodigester flare
A biodigester is used at the facility to reduce liquid and solid waste. Methane gas is produced by the biodigester, which is sent to the existing DDGS dryers (EQUI 47s and 54). Previously, the methane was sent to a biodigester flare (formerly EU 040) If the dryers were shut down. The biodigester flare is no longer operated and the unit and corresponding stack was removed from the permit.
3.11 Calculations of potential to emit
Attachment 1 to this TSD contains a summary of the proposed PTE of the facility, calculation spreadsheets and supporting information prepared by the MPCA and the Permittee. Based on the calculations, the project is not subject to NSR under 40 CFR §52.21.
Equipment that will be removed as a part of the planned project was left in the permit in order to allow operation after permit issuance. However, the PTE calculations assumed that all of the emissions would be from the new replacement units which all have larger capacities and therefore greater PTE’s than the old units. For each new unit, a requirement was added to the permit which authorizes operation only after the unit which it is replacing is permanently removed or disabled.
The VOC and HAP emission calculations included in the permit application are primarily based on the most recent performance tests that measured VOCs as VOCs by mass. The airflows and concentrations which were measured during the most recent tests for the existing scrubber and RTO were scaled according to the increase in capacity to determine the PTE of the new scrubber and RTO. Summaries of the facility’s most recent performance tests are included in Attachment 5 to this TSD.
3.12 Monitoring
In accordance with the Clean Air Act, it is the responsibility of the owner or operator of a facility to have sufficient knowledge of the facility to certify that the facility is in compliance with all applicable requirements.
In evaluating the monitoring included in the permit, the MPCA considered the following:
· The likelihood of the facility violating the applicable requirements. · Whether add-on controls are necessary to meet the emission limits. · The variability of emissions over time. · The type of monitoring, process, maintenance, or control equipment data already available for the emission
unit. · The technical and economic feasibility of possible periodic monitoring methods. · The kind of monitoring found on similar units elsewhere.

4. Insignificant activities
Al-Corn Clean Fuel has several operations which are classified as insignificant activities under the MPCA’s permitting rules. These are listed in Appendix A to the permit.
5. Permit organization
In general, the permit meets the MPCA Tempo Guidance for ordering and grouping of requirements. One area where this permit deviates slightly from Tempo guidance is in the use of appendices. While appendices are fully enforceable parts of the permit, in general, any requirement that the MPCA thinks should be electronically tracked (e.g., limits, submittals, etc.), should be in the Requirements table in Tempo. The main reason is that the appendices are word processing sections and are not part of the electronic tracking system. Violation of the appendices can be enforced, but the computer system will not automatically generate the necessary enforcement notices or documents. Staff must generate these.

6. Comments received
This section is to be completed following the end of the public and EPA notice periods.
7. Permit fee assessment
This permit action is the issuance of an individual Part 70 permit based on an application received 5/27/2016. Even though the Permittee previously held a state operating permit, this action is not considered a reissuance of an individual state or Part 70 operating permit; therefore, the application fees apply under Minn. R. 7002.0019. Attachment 4 to this TSD contains the MPCA’s assessment of Application and Additional Points used to determine the permit application fee for this permit action as required by Minn. R. 7002.0019.
8. Conclusion
Based on the information provided by the Permittee, the MPCA has reasonable assurance that the proposed operation of the emission facility, as described in the Air Emission Permit No. 04900001-101 and this TSD, will not cause or contribute to a violation of applicable federal regulations and Minnesota Rules.

Attachment 5: Consent Decree Control Technology Plan
Attachment 7: MPCA Supplemental BACT-equivalent Analysis
Al-Corn MPCA SUPPLEMENTAL BACT-equivalent ANALYSIS 12/13/2016 PROPOSED PHYSICAL AND OPERATIONAL CHANGES
1. The facility will increase throughput from 50 mg/yr to 130 mg/yr of undenatured ethanol. 2. The facility will increase grain and DDGS throughput. 3. Emissions from the fermentation process are subject to BACT-equivalent controls. The bulk of the existing fermentation process train will remain, and will be
expanded. Scrubber (CE003) was replaced with scrubber (CE010) in Permit Action 10 (2006). Now, fermentation scrubber (CE010) will be replaced with one scrubber (TREA 16); however, emissions from the distillation process will now be routed to TREA 16 instead of to the TO/HRSG (TREA 6). Facility will maintain minimum control of 95%.
4. DDGS cooling cyclone (EU018) will be removed and replaced with 2 new cyclones (EU159 and EU160). Since the entire process is being replaced, BACT-equivalent requirements will not be applicable to the new units.
5. Emissions from DDGS drying are subject to BACT-equivalent control. The existing dryers and RTO will remain, however, the throughput will be increased. The control reduction efficiencies will be maintained, however, the additional load could result in an increase in lb/hr levels.
6. EU017, a boiler subject to the group NOx limit will be removed. New boilers will not be subject to the group NOx limit. After the removal of boiler 1, the only remaining combustion sources subject to the BACT-equivalent limit of <= 0.04 lb/MMBtu per emission unit (on average) will all vent to a common stack. Therefore, the limit will be set as 0.04 lb/MMBtu, or an equivalent lb/hr at STRU 24.
BACT-EQUIVALENT ANALYSIS
7. BACT-equivalent limits remain in the permit and cannot be changed without a revised analysis. A revised analysis is required to ensure that the affected units continue to be controlled to levels considered equivalent to BACT.
MPCA-Proposed BACT-equivalent Control and Emission Limits
Emission Unit/SV Pollutant Consent Decree BACT-equivalent limit NOTES NOx from Natural Gas Combustion Boiler 1 (EU017), EU013, EU037 and EU042
NOx Low-NOx burner equivalent NOx: < 0.04 lb/MMBtu (average)
≤9.840 lb/hr based on an average of 0.04 lb/MMBtu before Boiler 1 is removed. ≤7.440 lb/hr based on an average of 0.04 lb/MMBtu after Boiler 1 is removed
EQUI 54/EU013 (Dryer 1) = 42 MMBtu/hr EQUI 47/EU037 (Dryer 2) = 45 MMBtu/hr TREA 6/EU042 (TO/HRSG) = 98.96 MMBtu/hr EQUI 68/EU017 (Boiler 1) = 60 MMBtu/hr (to be removed) (42 + 45 + 60 + 98.96) MMBtu/hr x 0.04 lb/MMBtu = 9.8384 lb/hr => 9.84 lb/hr (42 + 45 + 98.96) MMBtu/hr x 0.04 lb/MMBtu = 7.7384 lb/hr => 7.740 lb/hr Permit calculations rely upon a NOx emission rate of 7.280 lb/hr, so this value is achievable.
PM/PM10 Test and set (lb/hr) ≤5.220 lb/hr PM based on a 3-hour average
Calculations assume an PM/PM10 control efficiency of 50%. This is consistent with BACT-
DDGS Drying from EQUI54 and EQUI 47, and TREA 6 (TO/HRSG)
Use of multiclones on dryers for PM/PM10 control
Vent to thermal oxidizer (TO)
equivalent controls of the time for thermal oxidation. The Consent Decree required the facility to “test” to “set” a limit. The first test was in 2007:
2007 test: PM/PM10 = 2.61 lb/hr o 2.61 * 0.5 (50% control) = 5.22 lb/hr
Permit calculations rely upon a PM emission rate of 3.560 lb/hr, so this value is achievable.
If needed the Permittee would be able to justify a higher emission rate (lb/hr) in the future, based on the fact that the production throughput has increased.
VOC 95% reduction or 10 ppm outlet concentration
Test and set (lb/hr)
Vent to TO
≤2.70 lb/hr VOC as mass based on a 3-hour average ≥ 95% overall control
Calculations assume a VOC control of 98%, this is higher than the required BACT-equivalent efficiency of 95% for this control This is consistent with BACT-equivalent controls of the time for thermal oxidation.
Performance Testing. The Permittee did not test for VOC as total mass until 10/23/2102. The result of that test was 1.08 lb/hr. The Permittee has stated that the TO is capable of achieving 98% overall control. This is consistent with previous testing.
1.08 lb/hr = (100-98)/100 * 54 lb/hr
54 lb/hr * (100-95)/100 = 2.70 lb/hr normalized to 95% overall control.
BACT-equivalent limit in PER009 was 1.5 lb/hr VOC as total mass (no basis for limit was documented).
Permit calculations rely upon a VOC emission rate of 2.50 lb/hr, so this value is achievable.
CO 90% reduction or <100 ppm
≥90% reduction or <100 ppm
Calculations estimate uncontrolled PTE.
2007 test: CO = 58.44 ppm
Vent to TO ≤ 16.630 lb/hr CO based on a 3-hour average
2008 test: CO = 13.3 lb/hr, 81 ppm Since the initial test, the facility has
increased throughput capacity from 30 MGY to 50 MGY, (represented by 2007 and 2008 tests). This permit action will increase throughput from 50 MGY to 130 MGY, therefore the load will increase.
BACT-equivalent limit set in PER 009 ≤ 15.8 lb/hr CO (set equivalent to 81 ppm), which is more restrictive than 100 ppm.
Permit calculations rely upon a CO emission rate of 16.63 lb/hr. Since the facility did not provide calculations on uncontrolled CO emissions, this value will be used to represent the BACT-equivalent limit, and it is expected that this value is achievable.
NOx NOx: < 0.04 lb/MMBtu (average)
* See NOx discussion in first row of this table above.

Performance test conducted 2/19/2008, at 50 MGY. SV003 = 5.25 lb/hr @98.33%
5.25 lb/hr x (100-98.33)/100 = 314.37 lb/hr.
314.37 lb/hr x (100-95)/100 = 15.719 lb/hr LIMIT based on 2008 test (at 50 MGY).
BACT-equivalent limit set in PER 009 ≤7.7 lb/hr VOC as mass (at 30 MGY).
BACT-equivalent limit set in PER 011 ≤9.6 lb/hr VOC as mass (at 50 MGY). This will remain as a BACT-equivalent limit for the existing facility which vents fermentation process emissions to STRU 27, controlled by TREA 10.
Permit calculations rely upon a VOC emission rate of 20.80 lb/hr based on 95% overall control. It is reasonable to expect the lb/hr emission rate to increase when the process throughput is increased from 50 MGY to 130
MGY. Furthermore, all of the distillation process emissions and pre-fermentation emissions will be routed to TREA 16. This additional load was not represented in the previous performance tests conducted at TREA 10 (original fermentation scrubber).

Petrocom Energy Group, LLC MSDS – Unleaded Gasoline (All Grades) Section 11: Toxicological Information Toxicology Information Oral toxicity: Almost non-toxic. LD 50: > 2000 mg/kg (species: rats) Dermal toxicity: Almost non-toxic. LD 50: > 2000 mg/kg (species: rabbits) Inhalation toxicity: Almost non-toxic. LD 50: > 5 mg/l (species: rats) Eye irritation: Almost non-irritating. Draize score: > 6 and < 15 (species: rabbits) Skin irritation: Irritant. Primary irritation index: > 3 and < 5 (species: rabbits) Other data: Inhalation of high concentrations of vapors or mists may cause
respiratory system irritation and damage. It may also result in the damage and depression of the central nervous system and may cause death. Prolonged contact with the material may cause severe skin irritation.
Subchronic toxicity: Dermal studies resulted in significant irritation but not systematic
toxicity (species: rabbits). Inhalation exposures (90 day, approximately 1500 ppm vapor) produced light hydrocarbon nephropathy but no significant systemic toxicity (species: rats).
Neurotoxicity: Repeated and prolonged exposures to high concentrations of
vapor has been reported to result in central nervous system damage and eventually, death. In a study in which ten human volunteers were exposed for 30 minutes to approximately 200, 500 or 1000 ppm concentrations of gasoline vapor, irritation of the eyes was the only significant effect observed, based on both subjective and objective assessments.
However, no persistent neurotoxic effects were observed in subchronic inhalation studies of gasoline.
Reproductive toxicity: An inhalation study with rats exposed to 0, 400 and 1600 ppm of
wholly vaporized unleaded gasoline, 6 hours per day on day 6 through 16 of gestation, showed no teratogenic effects nor indication of toxicity to either the mother or the fetus. Another inhalation study in rats exposed to 3000, 6000, or 9000 ppm of gasoline vapor, 6 hours per day on day 6 through 20 of gestation, also showed no teratogenic effects nor indications of toxicity to either the mother or the fetus.
Chronic toxicity: A lifetime mouse skin painting study of unleaded gasoline applied
at 50 microliters, three time weekly, resulted in some severe skin irritation and changes, but no statistically significant increase in skin cancer or cancer to any other organ. Lifetime inhalation of wholly vaporized unleaded gasoline over 2000 ppm has caused increased liver tumors in female mice and increased kidney tumors in male rats. The EPA has concluded that mechanism by which wholly vaporzied unleaded gasoline causes kidney damage is unque to the male rat. The effects in that species (kidney damage and cancer) should not be used in human risk assessment.

Petrocom Energy Group, LLC MSDS – Unleaded Gasoline (All Grades) Other toxic effects Extremely hazardous in case of ingestion. on humans Very hazardous in case of eye contact. Hazardous in case of skin contact. Slightly hazardous in case of inhalation. Carcinogenic effects: Contains material that may cause cancer depending on the level
and duration of exposure. Target organs: Contains material that may cause damage to humans organs such
as (but not limited to) blood, kidneys, lungs, liver, eye, skin, nervous system and upper respiratory tract.
Section 12: Ecological Information Ecotoxicity: This material may be toxic to aquatic organisms such as algae
and daphnia. It has also shown to be toxic to fish. Environmental fate: The material is expected to be readily biodegradable. When
released into the environment, some of the constituents of gasoline will volatilize and be photo degraded in the atmosphere. Following spillage, the more volatile components of gasoline will be rapidly lost, with concurrent dissolution of these and other constituents into the water. Factors such as local environmental conditions, photo-oxidation, biodegradation and adsorption onto suspended sediments, can contribute to the weathering of spilled gasoline.
Section 13: Disposal Considerations Waste disposal: Avoid disposal of spilled material and runoff and contact with soil,
waterways, drains and sewers. Disposal of this product and any of its by products should always comply with the requirements of environmental protection and waste disposal legislation and any local authority requirements. This material would likely be identified as a federally regulated RCRA hazardous waste. See sections 7 and 8 for further information on handling, storage and personal protection. See section 9 for the material’s physical and chemical properties.
