Gas turbines can emit sulfur oxide emissions (SO x). Emission of sulfur oxides are dependent on the sulfur content of the fuel. Table 1 illustrates the sulfur dioxide emission limits. Owners or operators must comply with one or the other of the conditions shown in Table 1.
Table 1. Sulfur Dioxide Emission Limits for Gas Turbines
Regulation | Limit |
60.333(a) | discharge any gas that contains SO 2 in excess of: 0.015% by volume at 15% oxygen on a dry basis |
60.333(b) | No burning any fuel which contains more than 0.8% by weight sulfur |
