As stated in § 63.8800, you must comply with the requirements for performance tests for new or reconstructed flame lamination affected sources in the following table using the requirements in rows 1 through 5 of the table if you are measuring HCl and using a scrubber, row 6 if you are measuring HCN and using a scrubber, and row 7 if you are using any other control device.
For each new or reconstructed flame lamination affected source, you must . . . Using . . . According to the following requirements . . . 1. Select sampling port's location and the number of traverse ports Method 1 or 1A in appendix A to part 60 of this chapter Sampling sites must be located at the inlet and outlet of the scrubber and prior to any releases to the atmosphere. 2. Determine velocity Method 2, 2A, 2C, 2D, 2F, or 2G in appendix A to part 60 of this chapter. 3. Determine gas molecular weight Not applicable Assume a molecular weight of 29 (after moisture correction) for calculation purposes. 4. Measure moisture content of the stack gas Method 4 in appendix A to part 60 of this chapter. 5. Measure HCl concentration if you use chlorinated fire retardants in the laminated foam a. Method 26A in appendix A to part 60 of this chapter i. Measure total HCl emissions and determine the reduction efficiency of the control device using Method 26A.
ii. Collect scrubber liquid flow rate, scrubber effluent pH, and pressure drop (pressure drop data only required for venturi scrubbers) every 15 minutes during the entire duration of each 1-hour test run, and determine the average scrubber liquid flow rate, scrubber effluent pH, and pressure drop (pressure drop data only required for Venturi scrubbers) over the period of the performance test by computing the average of all of the 15-minute readings.6. Measure HCN concentration if you do not use chlorinated fire retardants in the laminated foam a. A method approved by the Administrator i. Conduct the performance test according to the site-specific test plan submitted according to § 63.7(c)(2)(i). Measure total HCN emissions and determine the reduction efficiency of the control device. Any performance test which measures HCN concentrations must be submitted for the administrator's approval prior to testing. You must use EPA Method 301 (40 CFR part 63, Appendix A) to validate your method. ii. Collect scrubber liquid flow rate, scrubber effluent pH, and pressure drop (pressure drop data only required for venturi scrubbers) every 15 minutes during the entire duration of each 1-hour test run, and determine the average scrubber liquid flow rate, scrubber effluent pH, and pressure drop (pressure drop data only required for venturi scrubbers) over the period of the performance test by computing the average of all of the 15-minute readings. 7. Determine control device efficiency and establish operating parameter limits with which you will demonstrate continuous compliance with the emission limit that applies to the source if you use any control device other than a scrubber a. EPA-approved methods and data from the continuous parameter monitoring system i. Conduct the performance test according to the site-specific test plan submitted according to § 63.7(c)(2)(i).
ii. Collect operating parameter data as specified in the site-specific test plan.
