Air Permit, BioRem Responsibilities
#assignment : Read the air permit, get in touch with Tioga ("ask five good questions")
Communicated by Henry Nakayama.
Tioga Oversight.
Tioga Environmental has some relatively new employees, so monitoring should be extra vigilant
There are several sets of flowmeter
Oxygen and biogas levels in flowmeters: Biogas level should stay below 6% or else the equipment could explore. Balance: The BioRem system needs oxygen as well to keep the bugs happy.
Flow meters (smaller) going into each biogas tank.
Some (the main flow meters) were lost replaced by Contractors/Bar Environmental.
At the end we have a flow meter of how much gas is going into the flares themselves or to TVA - this flow meter has gone out too in the past, with #failuremode overexposure to oxygen.
Fire arrestors prevent flame from going into the system. The Equipment/Fire Arrestors themselves burned out due to excessive heat and excessive oxygen. #failuremode. Fire arrestors #1 and #3 were replaced within the 2023-2024 period (citation people/Rodney Williams).
