Top Ten Air and Water Monitoring Companies Have 21 Percent of the Total
Market
The top ten companies in the air and water monitoring market had 2012 revenues
of $4.4 billion representing 21 percent of the $21 billion market. This ranking
analysis has just been posted to the McIlvaine report, Air & Water Pollution
Monitoring World Markets. (www.mcilvainecompany.com)
Top Ten Air and Water Monitoring Companies
Company Ranking
Emerson 1
Endress + Hauser 2
Thermo Fisher 3
Horiba 4
Yokogawa 5
Xylem 6
Siemens 7
Mettler Toledo 8
Invensys 9
ABB 10
The market share for the top five companies is 17 percent and only 4 percent for
the next five companies. There are many thousands of companies participating in
this market with sales of less than $100 million. The total market includes
those companies providing periodic sampling. They often consist of a handful of
people with a modest investment in portable test equipment.
At the other end of the spectrum is Emerson which has complete automation
systems for air and water monitoring and control. It is also a major supplier of
combustion analyzers including oxygen and carbon monoxide. The forecasts include
distributed control systems and PLCs used in the monitoring process. For this
reason the top ten list includes not only Emerson but Yokogawa, Siemens,
Invensys and ABB.
Endress + Hauser and Thermo Fisher have the widest assortment of instruments,
but they are not at the top of the rankings because they do not supply extensive
software.
The automotive test system portion for Horiba is included because it is centered
on measuring the impurities in the gas discharged from engines. This is a
substantial portion of Horiba sales and, thus, elevates the company to the top
ten rankings.
Yokogawa is a $4 billion company. It is a world leader in the sales of DCS
systems. It supplies both air and water instrumentation. Its software revenues
were just increased by the acquisition of Soteica. The acquired company provides
optimization systems for controlling greenhouse gases, NOx and other pollutants.

Holistic Program for Solution to Coal-fired Power Plant Environmental Problems
The battle over energy and the environment is mostly caused by confusion over
values. A common metric to rate all harm will lead to agreement on a program
which will:
• Reduce greenhouse gases and pollutants by more than the present strategy
• Create a big stimulus program with many new jobs
• Reduce the deficit
• Make the U.S. more competitive
Europe is moving away from gas and back to coal through reliance on
ultrasupercritical coal-fired power plants and renewables. In the U.S. we enjoy
lower gas prices, but the reality is that gas prices locally will eventually
reach world levels. EIA anticipates this increase and is forecasting that U.S.
consumption of coal in 2035 will be higher than consumption in 2012 and near the
levels of 2008.
Over the next twenty-five years, the U.S. will operate the oldest coal fleet in
the world. Even with compliance to all standards, these power plants will emit
three times the pollutants emitted by new power plants. They will burn 30
percent more coal and the cost to operate them will be more than the depreciated
cost of new power plants.
A common metric to measure all harm means that a numerical comparison can be
made between alternative strategies and the path with the biggest harm reduction
at the least cost can be chosen. All pollutants can be rated based on equivalent
tons of CO2 as per the following example:
Harm in Tons of Equivalent CO2
Pollutant Tons of CO2 Equivalent
Per Ton Emitted
CO2 (air) 1
SO2 ( air) 100
Mercury (air) 10.000,000
Water usage in drought area 0.1
Landfill Depletion 0.001
TSS (water) 100
This ratio is already established by EPA in its cost/benefit analyses for
various rules. The relative values can be debated and a new consensus
established. A tool called Quality Enhanced Life Days (QELD) can be used to help
set this consensus.
Power plant operators are most concerned by what they call the Franken MACT. The
threat of sequential regulation of each harm individually causes confusion and
potentially exorbitant costs. So consensus on a program for total harm reduction
will result in clarity and cost reduction.
The most overlooked economic statistic is that a new supercritical coal-fired
power plant will be the low cost option even if it is operated for only
twenty-five years. This means that the staunchest anti coal environmentalists
will not be deterred from their 2050 goals.
Here is the total harm comparison between the present coal-fired fleet with all
the proposed new controls and new supercritical coal-fired power plants:
Harm in Tons of Equivalent CO2 for the U.S Coal Fleet
Billions of Tons Per Year
Pollutant Existing Coal Plants Upgraded to Meet New Standards New Super-Critical
Coal-fired Power Plants
Air Toxics 1 0.1
PM2.5 0.5 0.05
SO2 0.9 0.09
NOx 0.4 0.1
CO2 1.7 1.2
Water 0.5 0.2
Soil 0.5 0.2
Total 5.5 2.2
Replacement of the old power plants with new ones would reduce harm by the
equivalent of 3.3 billion tons of CO2 per year. China has built more
supercritical power plants in the last five years than would be needed to
replace the entire U.S. fleet. These plants have the latest NOx and SO2 removal
equipment, so it is not just Europe who is showing why the program is possible.
The following steps are needed for success:
• Agreement on a common metric
• A national plan which takes into account local concerns, but is not hostage to
them
• A method for encouraging investment in the new power plants
Dialog between all the different parties can be meaningful when addressing
specifics such as the comparison of harm for specific pollutants. So it is
possible to achieve some consensus regarding harm values.
A national plan has to balance protection of individuals locally affected with
the common interest. But guidelines will have to be set as to what constitutes a
legitimate concern. These guidelines will need to be universally applied rather
than on a case by case basis. (The common metric for harm can be applied here as
well.)
If a plan is implemented which assures investors that the regulations for the
next twenty-five years will not be drastically changed without compensation,
then the funds for a massive replacement of U.S. coal-fired power plants will be
readily available. The result will be a reduction in the deficit and a more
competitive position in the world market.

Air Filter Market Revenues Expanding Due to Higher Quality Substitutions
The market for filters used to treat indoor air will be rise to over $6.7
billion this year. Market growth is in part due to the upgrading of filtration
quality. This is the conclusion reached by the McIlvaine Company in Air
Filtration and Purification World Markets. (www.mcilvainecompany.com)
($ Millions)
Subject 2013
Electronic 621
G 1-4 1,064
Gas Phase 775
H 10-17 952
M 5-6, F 7-9 3,376
Total 6,788
There has been a steady penetration of the medium efficiency M5-6 F7-9 filters
into the residential and commercial markets. This efficiency segment is now
three times larger than the low efficiency G1-4.
Now there is a trend for the high efficiency H10-17 to expand at the expense of
the medium efficiency filters. One of the biggest applications for this
conversion is gas turbine intakes. A March McIlvaine webinar included as part of
the report documents the lower maintenance and longer operation of gas turbines
when high efficiency inlet filters are purifying the combustion air. These
filters cost as much a 400 percent of the medium efficiency filters, but the
return on investment (ROI) has been a matter of weeks in some cases.
The speakers pointed out that the economic advantage is site specific. If the
turbine is going to operate only on peaking service or is operating in a
pristine environment, the high ROI may not be achieved.
Another upgrade trend has been to replace the conventional particulate filter
with a filter which removes both particulate and gas phase contaminants. The
addition of an activated carbon coating on the filter will result in odor and
acid gas capture.
Electronic air filters which are included in the report are those which have air
intake and discharge. The report does not include the portable ionizing filters
which are popular but greatly handicapped by the air flow patterns in the area.
The duct based electronic filters are popular with owners of large residences
and commercial buildings. The periodic filter replacement is eliminated.
Media developments such as membranes and nanofibers continue to offer better
efficiency at equivalent pressure loss. In semiconductor facilities, the energy
consumed by the filters is a significant percentage of the total plant
requirement.

Renewable Energy Projects Put New Demands on Transmission
Transmission lines are the key to moving renewable energy to market. New
projects are often located far from demand centers creating a need for new
transmission lines. McIlvaine tracks these developments in Renewable Energy
Projects and Update.
ERCOT Sets New Wind Power Record
The Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT), grid operator for most of the
state, set a new wind record on November 10, 2012.
Wind power output reached 8,521 MW at 10:21 a.m. This represented nearly 26
percent of system load at the time and surpassed the previous instantaneous
record, set the evening of June 19, 2012, by more than 150 MW.
“We have surpassed previous wind power records several times this year,” said
Kent Saathoff, ERCOT’s Vice President of Grid Operations and System Planning.
“While added capacity is one reason for this growth, experience and improved
tools also are enabling ERCOT to integrate this resource into the grid more
effectively than ever before.”
Nearly, 7,000 MW of the new record included wind power from West Texas wind
farms, followed by more than 1,100 MW from wind farms along the Texas Coast.
ERCOT has more than 10,000 MW of wind power capacity, with nearly 21,000 MW of
additional wind generation under review. The completion of high-voltage
transmission projects in Competitive Renewable Energy Zones by the end of 2013
will improve ERCOT’s ability to move wind power from West Texas to the
metropolitan areas where demand on the grid is highest.
ITC Submits ITC Great Plains Expansion Project to Southwest Power Pool
ITC Holdings Corp. (ITC) announced the ITC Great Plains Expansion Project — the
latest example of the company’s leadership in identifying innovative solutions
to the nation’s electric transmission needs.
The ITC Great Plains Expansion Project plan was developed through more than a
year of extensive study of regional needs. It identifies and proposes a package
of high-voltage electric transmission projects designed to relieve system
constraints impeding the export of excess energy capacity inter-regionally. The
five projects involve seven states and more than 2,700 miles of new transmission
line. This AC-based approach reflects the interconnectivity of the power grid
and provides a solution to integrate a variety of energy sources, enhance
overall grid reliability and provide flexibility and optionally throughout the
Southwest Power Pool (SPP) regional transmission organization footprint.
Developed by ITC Great Plaines, LLC, a subsidiary of ITC Grid Development, the
ITC Great Plains Expansion Project proposal involves five primary 345 kV AC
transmission lines consisting of multiple west-to-east segments originating in
Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas, and terminating in Iowa, Missouri and
Arkansas. The project plan aligns with one or more of the ITP20 Planning Futures
for which SPP (a regional transmission organization) recently issued a request
for projects. ITC Great Plains submitted this proposal into the SPP ITP20
planning process and SPP will enter the draft project portfolio into its ongoing
planning analysis and stakeholder review process. ITC Great Plains will work
with SPP and other stakeholders in the SPP Integrated Transmission Planning
(ITP) process, and other associated planning processes, to highlight the
benefits for customers associated with these projects.
The ITC Great Plains Expansion Project provides a framework for relieving
constraints in the underlying system for exporting energy from the western part
of SPP to load centers east of the SPP footprint. The proposed transmission
lines follow these general routes:
East-central Nebraska to north-central Iowa
Western Kansas to southern Iowa
Southwest Kansas to south-central Missouri
Western Oklahoma to south-central Missouri
Eastern Texas across southern Oklahoma to southwest Arkansas

Arista Power Awarded Phase Two Development Contract from U.S. Army
Arista Power, Inc., a manufacturer designer, and integrator of renewable energy
generation, management, and distribution systems, announced that it has been
awarded a $909,000-U.S. Army contract to complete Phase Two development of the
new “Intelligent Scalable Micro-Grid.”
The order recognizes Arista Power’s successful completion and delivery of Phase
One of the multi-phase program for the development of an “Intelligent
Micro-Grid” that is being designed to seamlessly integrate both renewable and
traditional energy sources to provide the scalability and automatic operation
needed to deliver reliable power in remote areas where military operations are
taking place which require a broad spectrum of energy needs and applications in
order to minimize the use of fossil fuels and save lives by reducing the need to
transport diesel fuel.
Arista Power, the prime contractor of this project, is developing the
Intelligent Scalable Micro-Grid under the guidance of the U.S. Army
Communications-Electronics Research, Development and Engineering Center
(“CERDEC”).
Under Phase One of the program, Arista Power delivered the initial intelligent
micro-grid to the U.S. Army and demonstrated the system at the Pentagon during
the Pentagon Energy Security Event from October 2 through October 4, 2012. Phase
two of the program is to further develop the capacity, scalability, and energy
behavior management capabilities, of the Intelligent Micro-Grid. The program has
options for CERDEC to provide additional funding for continued development upon
the successful completion of Phase Two.
Salazar Approves Transmission Line for Campo Verde Solar Project
Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar has approved construction of the
transmission line for First Solar’s Campo Verde Solar energy project, which will
cross public lands southwest of El Centro, CA.
The 139-MW solar energy project is expected to support more than 250 jobs
through construction and operations, generate $17.5 million in local tax revenue
over the life of the facility, and provide an estimated $239 million of
financial benefits to local, county and state economies. At full capacity, when
built, the Campo Verde Solar facility will produce enough electricity to power
41,700 homes.
Electricity from the Campo Verde photovoltaic plant will be transmitted to the
San Diego Gas and Electric’s Imperial Valley Substation. The Campo Verde
facility is located on about 1,443 acres of previously-developed,
privately-owned land southwest of El Centro, CA. Interior, who has only
authority over the section of the transmission line on federal lands, approved
the right-of-way for 17 acres for the power line on public land, and Imperial
County authorized the solar power plant on August 27, 2012. Because the
development on private land is related to the federal Right-of-Way for the
transmission line and the transmission line cannot cross public lands without
Interior approval, the Environmental Assessment had to consider the cumulative
impacts of the generation project in its analysis of the transmission proposal.
Windreich and TenneT Agree on Interim Connections for Offshore Wind Farm,
Deutsche Bucht
The Windreich Group, which is comprised of British Wind Energy GmbH and TenneT
TSO GmbH, has signed an agreement for the production of a temporary grid
connection of the offshore wind farm, “Deutsche Bucht.” Subsequently, the wind
farm Deutsche Bucht will be connected to the already-commissioned grid
connection, BorWin2 by TenneT to serve as a temporary solution in order to
generate power until the originally-intended wind farm grid connection, BorWin4,
is completed. While BorWin4 is still in the tendering phase, BorWin2 is already
under construction with a total capacity of 800 MW. The primary legitimate
offshore wind farms are Veja Mate and also the 400-MW wind farm Global Tech I
initiated by Windreich AG. After the grid connection BorWin4 is completed, the
wind farm Deutsche Bucht in 2015 is secured, reckons Dipl.-Wirt.-Ing. (FH) Willi
Balz. The CEO of Windreich AG states, “Our common interest in contract
negotiations was to successfully contribute to the implementation of the energy
transition, to which billions of Euros have been invested from both companies,
respectively.” Lex Hartman, a member of the Board of TenneT also stresses, “We
want to promote the development of offshore wind energy, so that the objectives
of the energy transition can be achieved. I am therefore delighted that together
with Windreich AG, we have quickly and constructively found a pragmatic solution
for the wind farm Deutsche Bucht.

“Mercury Measurement and Control” is the Subject of the “Hot Topic Hour” on
Thursday, March 28, 2013 at 10:00 a.m. (DST)
NOTE: Because of the great interest in this subject and the number of persons
that desired to make a presentation, we have scheduled three “Hot Topic Hours”
on “Mercury Measurement and Control” on March 28th, April 11th and April 18th.
Persons that register for the first or second session will automatically be
registered for the following sessions.
Late in December of 2012, the U.S. EPA released the final “Utility MACT” rule
also referred to as the “Mercury and Air Toxics Standards” (MATS) rule
establishing mercury and air toxics standards for coal- and oil-fired electric
generating units (EGUs) larger than 25 MW. Although several groups have filed
lawsuits challenging various parts of the rule, the court has not stayed it.
Therefore, all existing EGUs will have three years to comply with the standards
although the rule allows states to grant specific units an additional year for
equipment installation.
The mercury emission limits imposed by MATS on coal- and oil-fired boilers are
very low. So low that it is questionable whether or not the required reductions
can be achieved in all cases given the constraints imposed by reducing other
pollutants simultaneously. Many also believe that it may be very difficult to
measure mercury reliably and accurately to determine and prove what removal
efficiency is actually being achieved.
Control of mercury emissions from coal-fired boilers is currently achieved via
three general broad methods: use of coals with low mercury content along with
coal prep or washing, activated carbon injection (ACI), and various
multi-pollutant control technologies in which Hg capture is enhanced in existing
control devices for SO2, NOx, and particulates. Multi-pollutant methods include
capture of Hgp in PM control equipment and soluble oxidized Hg compounds in wet
flue gas desulfurization (FGD) systems. SCR NOx control systems are also used to
enhance oxidation of elemental Hg0 in flue gas to increase the mercury removal
in a wet FGD.
The overall scheme of air, water and waste disposal regulations such as CSAPR,
NAAQS, 316a/b and RCRA will make it even more difficult to develop a strategy
and select the most appropriate method for mercury control. An integrated
approach that considers how to capture mercury as well as other pollutants and
dispose of them in an environmentally friendly manner will be necessary.
The following speakers will help us understand the current situation relative to
the monitoring and control of mercury from coal- and oil-fired power plants and
address the key issues to be considered when developing the optimum strategy to
achieve compliance with the MATS; discuss potential control technologies
available for operators to achieve compliance and the advantages and
disadvantages of the various control technologies as well as criteria for
selecting specific technologies – existing facility configuration, existing
control equipment installed, fuel type and others; present the multi-emission
control technologies available and under development with their applicability,
capabilities and limitations and any other alternatives available to achieve
compliance with the Utility MATS.
Presenters for Mercury Measurement and Control - Part 1 on March 28, 2013
Sharon Sjostrom, P.E., Vice President, Technology, ADA-ES LLC, will present an
overview of important considerations for achieving MATS compliance for mercury.
Achieving consistent MATS compliance for mercury requires an integrated approach
to plant operations. Fuel choices, boiler operations and technology choices for
criteria pollutants and HAPS will affect mercury control and the ability to meet
future regulations associated with ash and water.
Dr. James Staudt, PhD, President, Andover Technology Partners, will discuss the
issues facing utility boilers, industrial boilers and Portland cement kilns that
need to measure and control Hg emissions. Topics to be addressed include:
• a comparison of continuous mercury monitor measurement data for sorbent traps
and analyzers,
o low level accuracy and bias between the two methods will be explored
• methods to reduce the operating cost of mercury control systems
o the benefit of variable control methods
• mercury control issues facing Portland cement kilns.
Bobby I.T. Chen, Client Program Manager, Integrated Emissions Solutions, at CB&I
Shaw Environmental, will present “EMOTM+HL, Total MATS Compliance Solution”.
There are critical reasons to enhance mercury oxidization using CB&I’s
technology because controlling mercury (Hg) emission from the coal combustion
process is best achieved through a two-stage process. The first stage is to
promote the mercury oxidization at the combustion chamber outlet. The second
stage is to provide a means of absorbent to capture the oxidized mercury. On
numerous of CB&I’s field EMO trials, EMO has been proven to achieve 90 percent
plus Hg oxidization, thus facilitates the downstream AQCS Hg control efficiency.
Furthermore, EMO was also found to be the most cost-effective way of controlling
stack Hg.
Volker Schmid, PhD of Clean Air Engineering, will present “Mercury Compliance
Monitoring in 2015 and Beyond.” Monitoring mercury at the concentration levels
specified by the new PC MACT and EGU MATS rules will be challenging for the
cement and electrical utility industries, respectively. We present the case for
using sorbent traps as the preferred alternative for mercury compliance
monitoring for many of the facilities impacted by these requirements.
