The objective of this project was to conduct a comprehensive review of all currently available technologies that could be employed for reducing NOx emissions from existing major point sources in Ellis County, Texas. Ellis County had NOx emissions in 2000 of 57 tons per day (tpd), with Point Sources contributing about 60% of those emissions. The Dallas area had 20 days over the 8-hour ozone standard in 2003, with a peak 8-hour value of 130 ppb. Because Ellis County has the potential to impact the air quality in the Dallas area, this report assesses technologies available to reduce emissions from major sources of NOx in Ellis County. The study also includes estimates for the initial capital expenditure and annual operating costs for technologies that could be practically implemented to further reduce emissions. These costs were compared with NOx controls being required of other industries and other sectors in the Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) area.
