Crematory Incinerators: Design and Operation


(1)

Temperature and Residence Time:

(a)

For a crematory incinerator installed on or after March 13, 1993, the temperature at the final combustion chamber must be equal to or greater than 1800º F with a residence time of at least 0.5 seconds. The temperature in the final chamber must be equal to or greater than 1400º F prior to igniting the primary burner.

(b)

For a crematory incinerator installed prior to March 13, 1993, the temperature at the final combustion chamber must be equal to or greater than 1600º F with a residence time of at least 0.5 seconds. The temperature in the final chamber must be equal to or greater than 1200º F prior to igniting the primary burner.

(2)

Operator Training and Certification. Each crematory incinerator shall be operated at all times under the direction of individuals who have received training necessary for proper operation. The following shall be available on-site at all times for Department inspection:

(a)

A description of a Department-approved training program; and

(b)

A written statement signed by each operator stating that the operator has undergone and understood the training program.

(3)

As defined in OAR 340-230-0030 (Definitions)(10), crematory incinerators may only be used for incineration of human and animal bodies, and appropriate containers. No waste, including infectious waste as defined in OAR 340-230-0030 (Definitions), may be incinerated unless specifically authorized in the Department’s Air Contaminant Discharge Permit.
