RESPONSE TO COMMENTS

Viskase Compaies, Inc.DRAFT PERMIT #268-AOP-R5

AFIN: 47-00115

On April 29, 2010 the Director of the Arkansas Department ofEnvironmental Qualitygave notice of a draft permitting decision for the above referenced facility. During thecomment period Viskase submitted comments, data, views or arguments on the draftpermitting decision. The Department's response to these issues follows.

Issue 1:

Comment 1 - Page 4. Contact Information

The contact is Stanley K. Miller - Plant Manager and his phone number is (870) 563-3541,extension 231

Response 1:

The contact information has been updated.

Issue 2:

Comment 2 - Pages 7 & 11 and Statement ofBasis Page 3 - Carbonyl Sulfide (COS)

Viskase would like carbonyl sulfide (COS) emissions removed from the permit altogether. Thebasis for this request is that COS is an intermediate product created in the biofilters that Viskasehas no control over. The COS emissions are from a small percentage of the hydrolysis reactionsof carbon disulfide that does not go completely to hydrogen sulfide, which is oxidized in thebiofilters to become sulfuric acid. Viskase believes that the total reduced sulfur compoundsadequately address and cover COS emissions inherently.

If a COS emission limit is necessary, Viskase requests a limit of 9lbslhr or 39.4 tpy. Theemission rate in the draft permit is too low for three reasons. First, the 0.69 lbslhr rate from theoriginal performance test data was listed with units of "as CS2" for the MACT Regulation. Thecorrect value of 1.1 lbslhr "as COS" is also listed on the performance test data spreadsheet. Thefactor of 1.58 is from the ratio ofthe molecular weights with the same amount of sulfur = 2 x60.07/76.131. Second, since the COS emissions are from a percentage of the sulfide removalreactions, the amount of COS emissions will increase with increased sulfide removal and numberofbiofilters needed at higher p;oduction rates. Sulfide removal at the maximum production ratecould be as much as three times as the original performance test rate, and the number ofbiofiltersneeded to operate at the maximum rate could also be three times or more. Using a factor of 3 to 4increases the rate to 3.3-4.4 lbslhr of COS. Third, a safety factor is needed so that any variationsdo not cause the permit limit to be exceeded. The outlet concentrations of COS were relativelylow during the performance testing at 5-9 ppm. As a percentage, the difference between the highand low values is significant. The amount of COS created, divided by the sulfides removed was0.64% during the performance testing. A small increase in outlet concentration (ppm) could havea significant impact on the percentage and COS emissions, so a safety factor of 2 to 3 is requestedto get a limit of9lbslhr or 39.4 tpy.

I

The PAER value on the Statement ofBasis page 3 should be N/A since the TLV value is N/A.

Response 2:

Carbonyl sulfide (COS) is a HAP. COS emissions must be included in the permit,regardless of their source or formation. While it is included in the TRS emission rates inthe draft permit, emission limits of COS also needed to be specified in the permit.Emission limits of COS have been revised to 9lb/hr and 39.4 tpy.

Issue 3:

Comment 3 - Pages 7, 8 and 18 - SN-05 Aldehyde emissions

The VOC totals on page 7 do not include the aldehyde emissions from the Emergency Fire WaterPump (SN-05). In addition, on pages 8 and 18 the aldehyde emissions were deleted from SN-05.Viskase believes that these should be added back in.

Response 3:

Aldehyde is a non-criteria air pollutant that is already included in the VOC emissions.No change has been made.

Issue 4:

Comment 4 - Page 11 - Specific Conditions 4 and 5

Limiting the surfactant VOC content is overly restrictive. Viskase would like to see S.c. 4 andS.C. 5 to be worded like S.C. 33, "The permittee shall maintain records of the amount ofsurfactant used and calculate the VOC emissions. These records shall be maintained on amonthly basis and updated monthly. These records shall be maintained on site and madeavailable to Department personnel upon request. [Regulation 19, §19.705 and 40 CFR Part 52,Subpart E].

Response 4:

The Department agrees to revise the specific conditions to allow more flexibility for thepermittee in using the surfactant that only contain VOC. Specific Conditions 4 and 5now reads:

4. The permittee shall not emit more than 0.1 ton ofVOC per consecutive twelvemonth period from the surfactant usage. Compliance shall be demonstratedthrough compliance with Specific Condition 5. [Regulation 19, §19.705, A.C.A.§8-4-203 as referenced by A.C.A. §8-4-304 and §8-4-311, and 40 CFR Part 70.6]

5. The permittee shall maintain monthly records of the amount of surfactant usedand calculate the VOC emissions. These records shall be updated on a monthly

2

basis, shall be maintained on site and made available to Department personnelupon request. [Regulation 19, §19.705 and 40 CFR Part 52, Subpart E]

Issue 5:

Comment 5 - Page 26, Item h. "biofilter effluent pressure drop"

Either the word effluent needs to be dropped altogether or read "biofilter gas pressure drop"

Response 5:

The errors have been corrected. It now reads "biofilter gas pressure drop".

Issue 6:

Comment 6 - Pages 29 and 30 - Specific Condition 10, and Pages 11 and 12 Specific Condition 3

Viskase proposes using a material balance to calculate l2-month running averages ofCS2 andTRS emissions to show compliance with the emission limits and that the PSD significance levelswill not be exceeded. This would be a better compliance mechanism than having to meet orexceed specific capture percentages and removal efficiencies during performance testing, sinceactual performance could vary slightly from the specific values listed in the draft permit but stillprovide acceptable (equivalent or better) results, such as by increasing the capture percentage anddecreasing the removal percentage, or by decreasing the capture percentage and increasing theremoval percentage. Viskase will also be expanding in phases and may not be at or alwaysoperate at the maximum CS2 usage. The proposed material balance and l2-month runningaverages compliance mechanism would be able to be used for varying CS2 usage rates, while thespecifically listed performance test values are overly restrictive at CS2 usage rates that are belowthe maximum. The proposed material balance method for compliance with emission limits issimilar to the compliance method for the MACT Regulation for sulfides reduction and uses muchof the same data. For consistency, Viskase also requests that the performance testing frequencybe as specified by the Federal Regulations.

The material balance calculations would include the CS2 usage data, the latest biofilterperformance test data, and any biofilter maintenance and/or washing offline time. Data from thelatest biofilter performance test that would be used in the material balance would include:percentage of sulfide emissions that are captured and routed to the biofilters, overall sulfideemission removal percentage, and the removal percentage split among each of the sulfides. CS2

and H2S emissions based on CS2 usage at the weigh scales, prior to any removal by biofilters, willbe based on the factors published in the Federal Register.

Response 6:

The Department agrees that by keeping record of the material balance to calculate l2-monthrunning averages of CS2 and TRS emissions, it is sufficient to show compliance with the yearlyemission limits and that the PSD significance levels will not be exceeded. However, theDepartment determines that the testing requirement with a five-year testing cycle for controlequipment is one of the critical methods for the facility to demonstrate continuous compliance forthe biofilter. Plantwide Condition 10 now reads:

3

10. The permittee shall conduct each performance test in Table 4 of this SubpartUUUU that applies after the completion of the installation of new viscose makingequipment and biofilter of 268-AOP-R5 accordance with Plantwide Condition #3and every five years thereafter. EPA Reference Method 15V shall be used for thetest. [Regulation No.19 §19.702, and 40 CFR Part 52, Subpart E]

Issue 7:

Comment 7 - Statement ofBasis page 6, Item 14

Viskase is using parametric monitoring biofilter inlet gas temperature, pressure drop, andelectrical conductivity, not TRS.

Response 7:

These errors have been corrected in the statement ofbasis.

Issue 8:

Comment 8 - Statement ofBasis - NAICS Code

Viskase is NAICS code 326121. NAICS Description: Unsupported Plastics Profile ShapesManufacturing.

Response 8:

The NAICS code and description have been revised as suggested by the permittee.

SECTION II: INTRODUCTION

Summary of Permit Activity

Viskase Companies, Inc. (Viskase, AFIN: 47-00115) owns and operates a cellulose food casingplant located at 2221 East State Highway 198 in Osceola, Arkansas. This permit modificationauthorizes the installation of two additional production lines with biofilter control equipment andtwo new carbon disulfide storage tanks, increase lime usage from 4000 tons per year to 6000tons per year, and including VOC emissions from flavoring. Permitted emissions changesinclude decrease ofSOz by 12.8 tpy, TRS by 146 tpy, CSz by 103.2 tpy; and increase ofPM/PMlO by 0.6 tpy, VOC by 2 tpy, and 172 tpy of ammonia.

Process Description

Production of cellulose food casings by the viscose process involves the reaction of a cellulosematerial, either cotton or wood pulp, with an aqueous sodium hydroxide solution. After aging,the alkali cellulose is reacted with carbon disulfide to form an intermediate compound, cellulosexanthate, which is subsequently dissolved in a dilute caustic solution to form a viscous fluidcalled viscose. After aging and filtering, the viscose is extruded into precision-sized tubes whichare passed through a series of acid baths where the cellulose is regenerated. The extrudedgenerated cellulose film is then purified, dried, reeled, and finished. Glycerine is added as aplasticizer and humectant.

Emissions from the viscose process (SN-Ol) consist primarily of carbon disulfide and hydrogensulfide. These gases occur during xanthation, coagulation, regeneration, and purification stagesof the viscose process. Smaller amounts ofcarbon disulfide are also emitted during carbondisulfide unloading and transfer operations. Viskase operates a biofilter to control sulfideemissions. Controlled emissions from the viscose process exit through the Bioway vent (SN-07)and uncontrolled emissions exit through the existing process stack (SN-Ol).

Ammonia is released from the fibrous casing regeneration process and a small amount ofglycerine emissions are released from dryer vents.

The Osceola facility operates two industrial on-site boilers (SN-02 and SN-03) with a combinedheat input of 142 million BTU/hr. These boilers generate steam for use in multiple productionoperations such as the acid bath evaporator systems, crystallizer, press water wash, glycerinehandling system, deaeration vacuum system, casing process dryers, and space heating. Theboilers are typically fired with natural gas but have the capability to fire No.2 or No.6 fuel oil.

A 340 horsepower emergency fire water pump (SN-05) is used in the event of a fire at theOsceola facility. Particulate matter, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide,

5


aldehydes, and unspecified volatile organic compounds are emitted during pump operation. Thepump is nonnally tested one hour a week, 52 weeks a year.

Viskase also operates an on-site wastewater treatment plant to ensure wastewater is properlytreated prior to discharge to the Mississippi River. Calcium hydroxide is combined with thewater and fed as a lime slurry to neutralize process wastewater. The neutralized wastewater isequalized and clarified before being discharged. The lime is stored in a 150 ton silo equippedwith a baghouse (SN-04) to control particulate emissions.

Carbon disulfide emissions (SN-06) occur due to unloading operations from tank cars or aportable tank into four submerged storage tanks, transfer of carbon disulfide from storage tanksto weigh scales, and weigh tank operations.

Several fuel oil, gasoline, raw material glycerine, and used oil storage tanks are also present atthe facility. Emissions from these sources are considered insignificant.

SECTION III: PERMIT HISTORY

268-A was the first air permit issued to the facility on October 21, 1974. 268-A permitted theconstruction and operation of the Union Carbide Corporation cellulose food casing facility.Carbon disulfide and hydrogen sulfide emissions were limited to 175 pounds per hour and 26.2pounds per hour, respectively.

On February 25, 1988, air permit 268-AR-1 was issued to Viskase Corporation. This permit wasissued to record the change of ownership from Union Carbide Corporation to ViskaseCorporation. Emission estimates for carbon disulfide, hydrogen sulfide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogenoxides, particulate matter, and other products of combustion were identified in a relatedsummary report relative to permit application.

268-AR-2 was issued to Viskase on October 17, 1996. This permit modification allowed theOsceola facility to operate existing equipment at a capacity that reflected expected marketdemand. The permit additionally supplemented and updated information about existing sourcesat the facility.

268-AOP-RO is the first operating permit issued to Viskase Corporation under Regulation 26.No physical changes in the method of operation at the facility occurred to prompt this permitissuance. However, Viskase Corporation is including glycerine emissions which have not beenpreviously identified in other air permitting efforts.

268-AOP-Rl was the Title V renewal for this facility. Lime usage was increased and thisresulted in a 0.3 tpy increase ofPM10 emissions. Ammonia emissions rates were also increase by32.0 tpy to account for fugitive emissions. Lastly, the calculations for natural gas combustionwere updated to reflect revised emission factors. Emissions increases were due to the use ofupdated factors and corrected calculations. With the exception of the increase in lime usage, noother changes were made in the operation of the facility

268-AOP-R2 was issued on April 9, 2003. This was a minor modification to the Title V permitfor this facility. The allowable surfactant usage was increased from 110 gallons per year to 750gallons per year and the hours of operation limit at SN-06 was removed. Emissions at thissource were changed to a basis of 8760 hours of operation per year. Also, this modificationincorporated the requirements of 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart UUUU, National Emission Standardsfor Hazardous Air Pollutants: Cellulose Products Manufacturing.

268-AOP-R3 was issued on October 27,2004. This was a modification to the Title V permit forthis facility. It allowed Viskase to install a biofilter to control sulfide emissions as required by40 CFR 63, Subpart UUUU, National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants:Cellulose Products Manufacturing.

9


268-AOP-R4 was issued on March 25,2008. In this Title V renewal, emission calculations werecorrected for the SN-02 and SN-03 boilers to maximum operating hours to 8,760 hr/yr for allpollutants. A modification also included to allow an increase in lime throughput at SN-04.Permitted emissions decreased 2.0 tpy ofTRS and increased 1.4 tpy ofPMlPMIO, 1.0 tpy ofVOC, 15.6 tpy of CO, and 15.2 tpy ofNOx.

SN-08Emissions from Flavoring

Source Description

Viskase has the flexibility to use flavorings. This is accomplished through three (3) processes:viscoat seamers, sluggers and shirring machines. The seamers make tubes from a plastic filmthat has a paper laminate. The substrate is delivered to Viskase pre-cut. Heat is used to create theseam. This finished product is called Viscoat. The finishing operations use large shirringmachines to cut and shirr cellulose covered paper, nylon film and plastic film with a paperlaminate (Viscoat). As part of the process, some of the casings have a flavoring agent introducedinside the casing, using the slugger, before it is cut and shirred.
