Emission Compliance with an ROI

The Multi-Sector Air Pollutants Regulations (MSAPR), formerly called the Base Level Industrial Emission Requirements (BLIERs), were implemented by Environment Canada on Wednesday, June 29, 2016. These new NOx emission regulations will focus on:

  • Natural Gas Engines - Primarily utilized for compression, electrical power generation and pumping within industrial facilities
  • Boilers and Heaters - Steam generation for various purposes in industrial process applications
  • Grey Cement Manufacturing Facilities
It is important for owners/operators to complete a detailed fleet analysis, business plan and implementation plan promptly to determine the scope of their compliance responsibilities.
Spartan offers a full suite of solutions, products and services to help you meet upcoming regulation changes for natural gas engines.

Our field application expertise is unsurpassed in the natural gas industry which enables us to provide our customers with the best service, advice and solutions to meet compliance and improve performance, efficiency and reliability

NOx regulations for stationary reciprocating natural gas engines

The regulation applies to all new 75kW(100hp) and above engines and all existing 250kW (335hp) and above engines and proposes an 11 year time frame for compliance, mandating 50% of the engine fleet meet NOx targets within 6 years, and 100% of the fleet meeting NOx targets in 11 years. Owners/operators of these engines will have two approaches to meet compliance: a Per-Unit approach, and an average approach. It is important for owners/operators of these engines to complete a detailed fleet analysis, business plan and implementation plan promptly to determine the scope of their compliance responsibilities.

Specialized emission stack testing for engines and boilers.

Spartan has a wide range of emission testing services available using the protocols specified by the MSAPR:
• Spot checks
• Emission checks
• Performance tests
• Spot check before and after air-fuel ratio (AFR) upgrades, tuning or repair
