Solid and Infectious Waste Incinerators: Emissions Limitations


No person shall cause, suffer, allow, or permit the operation of any solid waste facility or infectious waste facility in a manner which violates the following emission limits and requirements:

(1)

Particulate Emissions:

(a)

For incinerator facilities constructed or modified on or after March 13, 1990, emissions from each stack shall not exceed 0.015 grains per dry standard cubic foot of exhaust gases corrected to seven percent O2 at standard conditions;

(b)

For incinerator facilities constructed or modified before March 13, 1990, emissions from each stack shall not exceed 0.030 grains per dry standard cubic foot of exhaust gases corrected to seven percent O2 at standard conditions.

(2)

Hydrogen Chloride (HC1). For all incinerator facilities, emissions of hydrogen chloride from each stack shall not exceed 50 ppm during any 60-minute period corrected to seven percent O2; or shall be reduced by at least 90 percent by weight on an hourly basis.

(3)

Sulfur Dioxide (SO2). For all incinerator facilities, emissions of sulfur dioxide from each stack shall not exceed 50 ppm as a running three-hour average corrected to seven percent O2; or shall be reduced by at least 70 percent by weight on a three-hour basis.

(4)

Carbon Monoxide (CO). For all incinerator facilities, emissions of carbon monoxide from each stack shall not exceed 100 ppm as a running eight-hour average corrected to seven percent O2.

(5)

Nitrogen Oxide (NOx). Emissions of nitrogen oxide from each stack shall not exceed 200 ppm as a running 24-hour average corrected to seven percent O2 for incinerator facilities constructed or modified on or after March 13, 1990 capable of processing more than 250 tons/day of wastes.

(6)

Opacity. The opacity as measured visually or by a transmissometer shall not exceed ten percent for a period aggregating more than six minutes in any 60-minute period.

(7)

Fugitive Emissions. Solid waste incinerator facilities shall be operated in a manner which prevents or minimizes fugitive emissions, including the paving of all normally traveled roadways within the plant boundary and enclosing all material transfer points.

(8)

Other Wastes. No solid waste incinerator or infectious waste incinerator shall burn radioactive or hazardous waste, or any other waste not specifically authorized in the Department’s Air Contaminant Discharge Permit.

(9)

Other Contaminants. In the absence of an air-contaminant-specific emission limit or ambient air quality standard, the Department may establish by permit emission limits for any hazardous air contaminants that are more protective of human health and the environment for any solid waste incinerator or infectious waste incinerator.
