Sec. 63.1205  What are the standards for hazardous waste burning lightweight aggregate kilns?

    (a) Emission limits for existing sources. You must not discharge or 
cause combustion gases to be emitted into the atmosphere that contain:
    (1) For dioxins and furans:
    (i) Emissions in excess of 0.20 ng TEQ/dscm corrected to 7 percent 
oxygen; or
    (ii) Rapid quench of the combustion gas temperature at the exit of 
the (last) combustion chamber (or exit of any waste heat recovery 
system) to 400 F or lower based on the average of the test run average 
temperatures. You must also notify in writing the RCRA authority that 
you are complying with this option;
    (2) Mercury in excess of 120 [mu]g/dscm corrected to 7 percent 
oxygen;
    (3) Lead and cadmium in excess of 250 [mgr]g/dscm, combined 
emissions, corrected to 7 percent oxygen;
    (4) Arsenic, beryllium, and chromium in excess of 110 [mgr]g/dscm, 
combined emissions, corrected to 7 percent oxygen;
    (5) Carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons. (i) Carbon monoxide in excess 
of 100 parts per million by volume, over an hourly rolling average 
(monitored continuously with a continuous emissions monitoring system), 
dry basis and corrected to 7 percent oxygen. If you elect to comply with 
this carbon monoxide

standard rather than the hydrocarbon standard under paragraph (a)(5)(ii) 
of this section, you also must document that, during the destruction and 
removal efficiency (DRE) test runs or their equivalent as provided by Sec. 
63.1206(b)(7), hydrocarbons do not exceed 20 parts per million by volume 
during those runs, over an hourly rolling average (monitored 
continuously with a continuous emissions monitoring system), dry basis, 
corrected to 7 percent oxygen, and reported as propane; or
    (ii) Hydrocarbons in excess of 20 parts per million by volume, over 
an hourly rolling average, dry basis, corrected to 7 percent oxygen, and 
reported as propane;
    (6) Hydrochloric acid and chlorine gas in excess of 600 parts per 
million by volume, combined emissions, expressed as hydrochloric acid 
equivalents, dry basis and corrected to 7 percent oxygen; and
    (7) Particulate matter in excess of 57 mg/dscm corrected to 7 
percent oxygen.
    (b) Emission limits for new sources. You must not discharge or cause 
combustion gases to be emitted into the atmosphere that contain:
    (1) For dioxins and furans:
    (i) Emissions in excess of 0.20 ng TEQ/dscm corrected to 7 percent 
oxygen; or
    (ii) Rapid quench of the combustion gas temperature at the exit of 
the (last) combustion chamber (or exit of any waste heat recovery 
system) to 400 F or lower based on the average of the test run average 
temperatures. You must also notify in writing the RCRA authority that 
you are complying with this option;
    (2) Mercury in excess of 120 [mgr]g/dscm corrected to 7 percent 
oxygen;
    (3) Lead and cadmium in excess of 43 [mgr]g/dscm, combined 
emissions, corrected to 7 percent oxygen;
    (4) Arsenic, beryllium, and chromium in excess of 110 [mgr]g/dscm, 
combined emissions, corrected to 7 percent oxygen;
    (5) Carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons. (i) Carbon monoxide in excess 
of 100 parts per million by volume, over an hourly rolling average 
(monitored continuously with a continuous emissions monitoring system), 
dry basis and corrected to 7 percent oxygen. If you elect to comply with 
this carbon monoxide standard rather than the hydrocarbon standard under 
paragraph (b)(5)(ii) of this section, you also must document that, 
during the destruction and removal efficiency (DRE) test runs or their 
equivalent as provided by Sec. 63.1206(b)(7), hydrocarbons do not exceed 20 
parts per million by volume during those runs, over an hourly rolling 
average (monitored continuously with a continuous emissions monitoring 
system), dry basis, corrected to 7 percent oxygen, and reported as 
propane; or
    (ii) Hydrocarbons in excess of 20 parts per million by volume, over 
an hourly rolling average, dry basis, corrected to 7 percent oxygen, and 
reported as propane;
    (6) Hydrochloric acid and chlorine gas in excess of 600 parts per 
million by volume, combined emissions, expressed as hydrochloric acid 
equivalents, dry basis and corrected to 7 percent oxygen; and
    (7) Particulate matter in excess of 57 mg/dscm corrected to 7 
percent oxygen.
    (c) Destruction and removal efficiency (DRE) standard. (1) 99.99% 
DRE. Except as provided in paragraph (c)(2) of this section, you must 
achieve a destruction and removal efficiency (DRE) of 99.99% for each 
principal organic hazardous constituent (POHC) designated under 
paragraph (c)(3) of this section. You must calculate DRE for each POHC 
from the following equation:

DRE = [1--(Wout / Win)] x 100%
Where:

Win = mass feedrate of one principal organic hazardous 
constituent (POHC) in a waste feedstream; and
Wout = mass emission rate of the same POHC present in exhaust 
emissions prior to release to the atmosphere.

    (2) 99.9999% DRE. If you burn the dioxin-listed hazardous wastes 
F020, F021, F022, F023, F026, or F027 (see Sec. 261.31 of this chapter), 
you must achieve a destruction and removal efficiency (DRE) of 99.9999% 
for each principal organic hazardous constituent (POHC) that you 
designate under paragraph (c)(3) of this section. You must demonstrate 
this DRE performance on POHCs that are more difficult to incinerate than 
tetra-, penta-, and hexachloro dibenzo-dioxins and

[[Page 19]]

dibenzofurans. You must use the equation in paragraph (c)(1) of this 
section to calculate DRE for each POHC. In addition, you must notify the 
Administrator of your intent to burn hazardous wastes F020, F021, F022, 
F023, F026, or F027.
    (3) Principal organic hazardous constituents (POHCs). (i) You must 
treat the Principal Organic Hazardous Constituents (POHCs) in the waste 
feed that you specify under paragraph (c)(3)(ii) of this section to the 
extent required by paragraphs (c)(1) and (c)(2) of this section.
    (ii) You must specify one or more POHCs from the list of hazardous 
air pollutants established by 42 U.S.C. 7412(b)(1), excluding 
caprolactam (CAS number 105602) as provided by Sec. 63.60, for each waste 
to be burned. You must base this specification on the degree of 
difficulty of incineration of the organic constituents in the waste and 
on their concentration or mass in the waste feed, considering the 
results of waste analyses or other data and information.
    (d) Significant figures. The emission limits provided by paragraphs 
(a) and (b) of this section are presented with two significant figures. 
Although you must perform intermediate calculations using at least three 
significant figures, you may round the resultant emission levels to two 
significant figures to document compliance.
