Maddox, J

This report describes the development of a performance and control-cost algorithm for the Industrial Combustion Emissions (ICE) Model, one of four stationary source emission and control cost forecasting models developed by EPA for the National Acid Precipitation Assessment Program (NAPAP). The ICE Model projects air pollution emissions (sulfur dioxide (SO/sub 2/), sulfates, nitrogen oxides, and particulate matter), cost, and fuel mix for industrial fossil-fuel-fired (natural gas, distillate and residual fuel oil, and coal) boilers by state and year (1980 baseline, 1985, 1990, 1995, 2000, 2010, 2020, and 2030). The algorithm enables the ICE Model to consider, on an economic basis, the use of hydrated lime injection for SO/sub 2/ control when a SO/sub 2/ emission reduction strategy is implemented. The algorithms described have been incorporated into ICE Model Version 6.0.
