Facility Name:FLINT HILLS RESOURCES LLC - FAIRBANK ETHANOL PLANT
Facility Identifier:
Facility Reporting Year:2020
Facility Location:
Address: 1277 102ND STREET
City: FAIRBANK
State: IA
Postal Code: 50629

Facility Site Details:
CO2 equivalent emissions from facility subparts C-II, SS, and TT (metric tons):188,166.6
CO2 equivalent emissions from supplier subparts LL-QQ (metric tons):
Biogenic CO2 emissions from facility subparts C-II, SS, and TT (metric tons):63.8
Cogeneration Unit Emissions Indicator:N
GHG Report Start Date:2020-01-01
GHG Report End Date:2020-12-31
Description of Changes to Calculation Methodology:In Subpart II, rather than reporting CH4 Emitted associated with 11 full weeks at 24 hours of operation per week (default calculations in e-GGRT), the emissions total has been manually revised to reflect 1,728 hours of operation (controlled). CH4 emissions were still calculated using the Subpart II equations II-6 and II-7. The uncontrolled CH4 emissions are reported separately, as tracked by the facility. This is a more accurate reflection of actual operation at the facility, rather than assuming the methanator was operating for 1,848 hours per year.
