9.6. Emission limitations and operating limits.
9.6.a. The owner or operator shall meet the emission limitations for each CISWI unit, including bypass stack or vent, specified in Table 45-18F or Tables 45-18J through 45-18M, by the final compliance date set forth subdivision 9.3.b. The emission limitations apply at all times the unit is operating including and not limited to startup, shutdown or malfunction.
9.6.b. Units that do not use wet scrubbers shall maintain opacity to less than or equal to the percent opacity (three one-hour blocks consisting of ten six-minute average opacity values) specified in Table 45-18F as applicable.
9.6.c. If the owner or operator uses a wet scrubber(s) to comply with the emission limitations, the owner or operator shall establish operating limits for up to four operating parameters (as specified in Table 45-18G) as described in paragraphs 9.6.c.1 through 9.6.c.4 during the initial performance test:
9.6.c.1. Maximum charge rate, calculated using one of the two procedures below, as appropriate:
9.6.c.1.A. For continuous and intermittent units, maximum charge rate is 110% of the average charge rate measured during the most recent performance test demonstrating compliance with all applicable emission limitations; or
9.6.c.1.B. For batch units, maximum charge rate is 110% of the daily charge rate measured during the most recent performance test demonstrating compliance with all applicable emission limitations.
9.6.c.2. Minimum pressure drop across the wet particulate matter scrubber, which is calculated as the lowest one-hour average pressure drop across the wet scrubber measured during the most recent performance test demonstrating compliance with the particulate matter emission limitations; or minimum amperage to the wet scrubber, which is calculated as the lowest one-hour average amperage to the wet scrubber measured during the most recent performance test demonstrating compliance with the particulate matter emission limitations;
9.6.c.3. Minimum scrubber liquid flow rate, which is calculated as the lowest one-hour average liquid flow rate at the inlet to the wet acid gas or particulate matter scrubber measured during the most recent performance test demonstrating compliance with all applicable emission limitations; and/or
9.6.c.4. Minimum scrubber liquor pH, which is calculated as the lowest one-hour average liquor pH at the inlet to the wet acid gas scrubber measured during the most recent performance test demonstrating compliance with the hydrogen chloride (HCl) emission limitation.
9.6.d. The owner or operator shall meet the operating limits established during the initial performance test on the date the initial performance test is required or completed (whichever is earlier). The owner or operator shall conduct an initial performance evaluation of each continuous monitoring system and continuous parameter monitoring system within 60 days of installation of the monitoring system.
9.6.e. If the owner or operator uses a fabric filter to comply with the emission limitations, the owner or operator shall operate each fabric filter system such that the bag leak detection system alarm does not sound more than five percent of the operating time during a six-month period. In calculating this operating time percentage, if inspection of the fabric filter demonstrates that no corrective action is required, no alarm time is counted. If corrective action is required, each alarm shall be counted as a minimum of one hour. If the owner or operator takes longer than one hour to initiate corrective action, the alarm time shall be counted as the actual amount of time taken to initiate corrective action.
9.6.f. If the owner or operator uses an electrostatic precipitator to comply with the emission limitations, the owner or operator shall measure the (secondary) voltage and amperage of the electrostatic precipitator collection plates during the particulate matter performance test. Calculate the average electric power value (secondary voltage × secondary current = secondary electric power) for each test run. The operating limit for the electrostatic precipitator is calculated as the lowest one-hour average secondary electric power measured during the most recent performance test demonstrating compliance with the particulate matter emission limitations.
9.6.g. If the owner or operator uses activated carbon sorbent injection to comply with the emission limitations, the owner or operator shall measure the sorbent flow rate during the performance testing. The operating limit for the carbon sorbent injection is calculated as the lowest one-hour average sorbent flow rate measured during the most recent performance test demonstrating compliance with the mercury emission limitations. For energy recovery units, when the unit operates at lower loads, multiply the sorbent injection rate by the load fraction, as defined in 40 CFR § 60.2265, to determine the required injection rate (e.g., for 50% load, multiply the injection rate operating limit by 0.5).
9.6.h. If the owner or operator uses selective noncatalytic reduction to comply with the emission limitations, the owner or operator shall measure the charge rate, the secondary chamber temperature (if applicable to the CISWI unit), and the reagent flow rate during the nitrogen oxides performance testing. The operating limits for the selective noncatalytic reduction are calculated as the highest one-hour average charge rate, lowest secondary chamber temperature, and lowest reagent flow rate measured during the most recent performance test demonstrating compliance with the nitrogen oxides emission limitations.
9.6.i. If the owner or operator uses a dry scrubber to comply with the emission limitations, the owner or operator shall measure the injection rate of each sorbent during the performance testing. The operating limit for the injection rate of each sorbent is calculated as the lowest one-hour average injection rate of each sorbent measured during the most recent performance test demonstrating compliance with the hydrogen chloride emission limitations. For energy recovery units, when the unit operates at lower loads, multiply the sorbent injection rate by the load fraction, as defined in 40 CFR § 60.2265, to determine the required injection rate (e.g., for 50% load, multiply the injection rate operating limit by 0.5).
9.6.j. If the owner or operator does not use a wet scrubber, electrostatic precipitator, or fabric filter to comply with the emission limitations, and if the owner or operator does not determine compliance with particulate matter emission limitation with a particulate matter CEMS, the unit shall maintain opacity to less than or equal to ten percent opacity (one-hour block average).
9.6.k. If the owner or operator uses a PM CPMS to demonstrate compliance, the owner or operator shall establish a PM CPMS operating limit and determine compliance with it according to paragraphs 9.6.k.1 through 9.6.k.5 below:
9.6.k.1. During the initial performance test or any such subsequent performance test that demonstrates compliance with the PM limit, record all hourly average output values (milliamps, or the digital signal equivalent) from the PM CPMS for the periods corresponding to the test runs (e.g., three one-hour average PM CPMS output values for three one-hour test runs).
9.6.k.1.A. The PM CPMS shall provide a 4-20 milliamp output, or digital signal equivalent, and the establishment of its relationship to manual reference method measurements shall be determined in units of milliamps or digital bits.
9.6.k.1.B. The PM CPMS operating range shall be capable of reading PM concentrations from zero to a level equivalent to at least two times the allowable emission limit. If the PM CPMS is an auto-ranging instrument capable of multiple scales, the primary range of the instruments shall be capable of reading PM concentration from zero to a level equivalent to two times your allowable emission limit.
9.6.k.1.C. During the initial performance test or any subsequent performance test that demonstrates compliance with the PM limit, record and average all milliamp output values, or their digital equivalent, from the PM CPMS for the periods corresponding to the compliance test runs (e.g., average all PM CPMS output values for three corresponding two-hour Method 5I test runs).
9.6.k.2. If the average of the three PM performance test runs are below 75% of the facility’s PM emission limit, the owner or operator shall calculate an operating limit by establishing a relationship of PM CPMS signal to PM concentration using the PM CPMS instrument zero, the average PM CPMS values corresponding to the three compliance test runs, and the average PM concentration from the Method 5 or performance test with the procedures in paragraphs 9.6.k.1 through 9.6.k.5.
9.6.k.2.A. Determine the facility’s instrument zero output with one of the following procedures:
9.6.k.2.A.1. Zero point data for in-situ instruments should be obtained by removing the instrument from the stack and monitoring ambient air on a test bench.
9.6.k.2.A.2. Zero point data for extractive instruments should be obtained by removing the extractive probe from the stack and drawing in clean ambient air.
9.6.k.2.A.3. The zero point can also be established by performing manual reference method measurements when the flue gas is free of PM emissions or contains very low PM concentrations (e.g., when the process is not operating, but the fans are operating or the source is combusting only natural gas) and plotting these with the compliance data to find the zero intercept.
9.6.k.2.A.4. If none of the steps in parts 9.6.k.2.A.1 through 9.6.k.2.A.3 are possible, the owner or operator shall use a zero output value provided by the manufacturer.
9.6.k.2.B. The owner or operator shall determine its PM CPMS instrument average in milliamps, or the digital equivalent, and the average of the corresponding three PM compliance test runs, using Equation 1:
Where:
X1 = the PM CPMS data points for the three runs constituting the performance test,
Y1 = the PM concentration value for the three runs constituting the performance test, and
n = the number of data points.
9.6.k.2.C. With the instrument zero expressed in milliamps, or the digital equivalent, the three run average PM CPMS milliamp value, or its digital equivalent, and the three run average PM concentration from your three compliance tests, determine a relationship of mg/dscm per milliamp or digital signal equivalent, with Equation 2.
Where:
R = the relative mg/dscm per milliamp, or the digital equivalent, for your PM CPMS,
Y1 = the three run average mg/dscm PM concentration,

If the waste-burning kiln is not equipped with a wet scrubber or dry scrubber, the owner or operator shall determine compliance with the hydrogen chloride emission limit using a CEMS as specified in paragraph 9.9.j.1. The owner or operator shall determine compliance with the mercury emissions limit using a mercury CEMS according to paragraph 9.9.j.2. The owner or operator shall determine compliance with particulate matter using CPMS according to the following requirements:
9.9.j.1. If the owner or operator monitors compliance with the hydrogen chloride (HCl) emissions limit by operating an HCl CEMS, the owner or operator shall do so in accordance with Performance Specification 15 (PS 15) of Appendix B to 40 CFR Part 60, or PS 18 of Appendix B to 40 CFR Part 60. The owner or operator shall operate, maintain, and quality assure a HCl CEMS installed and certified under PS 15 according to the quality assurance requirements in Procedure 1 of Appendix F to 40 CFR Part 60, except that the owner or operator shall replace the relative accuracy test audit requirements of Procedure 1 with the validation requirements and criteria of Sections 11.1.1 and 12.0 of PS 15. The owner or operator shall operate, maintain, and quality assure a HCl CEMS installed and certified under PS 18 according to the quality assurance requirements in Procedure 6 of Appendix F to 40 CFR Part 60. For any performance specification used, the owner or operator shall use Method 321 of Appendix A to 40 CFR Part 63 as the reference test method for conducting relative accuracy testing. The span value and calibration requirements in subparagraphs 9.9.j.1.A and 9.9.j.1.B apply to all HCl CEMS used under this subpart:
9.9.j.1.A. The owner or operator shall use a measurement span value for any HCl CEMS of 0–10 ppmvw unless the monitor is installed on a kiln without an inline raw mill. For kilns without an inline raw mill, the owner or operator may use a higher span value sufficient to quantify all expected emissions concentrations. The HCl CEMS data recorder output range shall include the full range of expected HCl concentration values, which would include those expected during “mill off” conditions. The owner or operator shall document corresponding data recorder range in the site-specific monitoring plan and associated records;
9.9.j.1.B. In order to quality assure data measured above the span value, the owner or operator shall use one of the three options in parts 9.9.j.1.B.1 through 9.9.j.1.B.3 below:
9.9.j.1.B.1 Include a second span that encompasses the HCl emission concentrations expected to be encountered during “mill off” conditions. This second span may be rounded to a multiple of 5 ppm of total HCl. The owner or operator shall follow requirements of the appropriate HCl monitor performance specification for this second span, except that a RATA with the mill off is not required;
9.9.j.1.B.2. Quality assure any data above the span value by proving instrument linearity beyond the span value established in subparagraph 9.9.j.1.A using the following procedure: conduct a weekly “above span linearity” calibration challenge of the monitoring system using a reference gas with a certified value greater than the highest expected hourly concentration or greater than 75% of the highest measured hourly concentration. The “above span” reference gas shall meet the requirements of the applicable performance specification and shall be introduced to the measurement system at the probe. The owner or operator shall record and report the results of this procedure as it would for a daily calibration. The “above span linearity” challenge is successful if the value measured by the HCl CEMS falls within ten percent of the certified value of the reference gas. If the value measured by the HCl CEMS during the above span linearity challenge exceeds ten percent of the certified value of the reference gas, the owner or operator shall evaluate and repair the monitoring system and meet a new “above span linearity” challenge before returning the HCl CEMS to service, or data above span from the HCl CEMS shall be subject to the quality assurance procedures established in 9.9.j.1.B.4. In this manner, the owner or operator shall normalize values measured by the HCl CEMS in this manner during the above span linearity challenge exceeding plus or minus 20% of the certified value of the reference gas using Equation 6;
9.9.j.1.B.3. Quality assure any data above the span value established in subparagraph 9.9.j.1.A using the following procedure: any time two consecutive one-hour average measured concentration of HCl exceeds the span value the owner or operator shall, within 24 hours before or after, introduce a higher, “above span” HCl reference gas standard to the HCl CEMS. The “above span” reference gas shall meet the requirements of the applicable performance specification and target a concentration level between 50% and 150% of the highest expected hourly concentration measured during the period of measurements above span, and shall be introduced at the probe. While this target represents a desired concentration range that is not always achievable in practice, the owner or operator shall demonstrate its intent to meet this range by the value of the reference gas. Expected values may include above span calibrations done before or after the above-span measurement period. The owner or operator shall record and report the results of this procedure as it would for a daily calibration. The “above span” calibration is successful if the value measured by the HCl CEMS is within 20% of the certified value of the reference gas. If the value measured by the HCl CEMS is not within 20% of the certified value of the reference gas, then the owner or operator shall normalize the stack gas values measured above span as described in part 9.9.j.1.B.4. If the “above span” calibration is conducted during the period when measured emissions are above span and the owner or operator fails to collect the one data point in an hour due to the calibration duration, then the owner or operator shall determine the emissions average for that missed hour as the average of hourly averages for the hour preceding the missed hour and the hour following the missed hour. In an hour where an owner or operator is conducting an “above span” calibration and collects one or more data points, the emissions average is represented by the average of all valid data points collected in that hour;
9.9.j.1.B.4. In the event that the “above span” calibration is not successful (i.e., the HCl CEMS measured value is not within 20% of the certified value of the reference gas), then the owner or operator shall normalize the one-hour average stack gas values measured above the span during the 24- hour period preceding or following the “above span” calibration for reporting based on the HCl CEMS response to the reference gas as shown in Equation 6. Only one “above span” calibration is needed per 24-hour period.
9.9.j.2. The owner or operator shall determine compliance with the mercury emissions limit using a mercury CEMS according to the following requirements:
9.9.j.2.A. The owner or operator shall operate a CEMS system in accordance with performance specification 12A of 40 CFR Part 60, Appendix B or a sorbent trap based integrated monitor in accordance with performance specification 12B of 40 CFR Part 60, Appendix B. The duration of the performance test shall be a calendar month. For each calendar month in which the waste-burning kiln operates, the owner or operator shall obtain hourly mercury concentration data and stack gas volumetric flow rate data. The owner or operator shall demonstrate compliance with the mercury emissions limit using a 30-day rolling average of these one-hour mercury concentrations, including CEMS data during startup and shutdown calculated using equation 19–19 in section 12.4.1 of Method 19 of 40 CFR Part 60, Appendix A–7. CEMS data during startup and shutdown are not corrected to seven percent oxygen and are measured at stack oxygen content;
9.9.j.2.B. Owners or operators using a mercury CEMS shall install, operate, calibrate, and maintain an instrument for continuously measuring and recording the mercury mass emissions rate to the atmosphere according to the requirements of performance specifications 6 and 12A of 40 CFR Part 60, Appendix B, and quality assurance procedure 6 of 40 CFR Part 60, Appendix F; and
