The Oregon installation uses a 25 tire per hour unit manufactured by Nippo in Japan and marketed in the U.S. by Tsurusaki Sealand. The unit has been in operation since 1987 with moderate success, but no U.S. company has yet decided to purchase another one. The draft configuration in the unit allows it to bum at 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit and produce 100 psig process steam. The unit has a Cleaver Brooks waste heat recovery boiler and a bag filter. Whole tires are automatically fed into the unit-both automobile tires and light truck tires. The State of Oregon Department of Environmental Quality has approved the operation of the unit.

U.S. EPA Region 10, the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), and U.S. Army Environmental Center (AEC) have used these results for determining the characteristic hazardous waste status of explosives contaminated soil as a reactive waste under RCRA. The basis for the RCRA characteristic hazardous waste status is the assumed explosive reactivity of the soils if subjected to a strong initiating force or if heated under confinement (40 CFR 261.23). These results apply to explosives such as TNT, HMX, DNT, TNB, and DNB, and do not apply to initiating compounds, such as lead azide, lead styphenate, or mercury fulminate.
