Klicius R, Finkelstein A, Hay D. 1988. The national incinerator testing and evaluation program Air pollution control technology assessment results. Hazard Waste Hazard Mater 5 53-64. [Pg.641]

Air pollution control technology includes thermal incineration, catalytic incineration, carbon adsorption, absorption, condensation, baghouse filtration, wet scrubbing, and electrostatic precipitation. [Pg.636]

Add-on Control Device an air pollution control device such as carbon absorber or incinerator that reduces the pollution in an exhaust gas. The control device usually does not affect the process being controlled and thus is "add-on" technology, as opposed to a scheme to control pollution though altering the basic... [Pg.516]

Incineration has been used extensively in hospitals for disposal of hospital wastes containing infectious and/or hazardous substances. Most hospital incinerators (over 80%), however, are outdated or poorly designed. Modem incineration technology, however, is available for complete destmction of organic hazardous and infectious wastes. In addition, adequate air pollution control facilities, such as scmbbers, secondary combustion chambers, stacks, and so on, are needed to prevent acid gas, dioxin, and metals from being discharged from the incinerators. [Pg.85]

The USEPA is responsible for creating and enforcing the NESHAPs for all hazardous air pollutant sources. The CAA states that new or existing major sources must have emission standards based on the maximum available control technology (M ACT) to reduce hazardous air pollutant emissions. The MACT standards are based on the performance of the best 12% of the control devices in the same source category. These MACT emissions requirements were extended in 1997 to cover wastewater biosolid incinerators at publicly owned treatment works (POTWs) that have the potential to discharge cadmium, lead, and mercury (Richman, 1997). [Pg.38]

In October 2005, under authority of the Clean Air Act and RCRA, the EPA issued its final national emission standards for hazardous air pollutants from hazardous waste combustors. The standards require hazardous waste combustors to meet hazardous air pollutant emission standards reflecting the application of maximum achievable controllable technology (MACT). These standards are applicable to any hazardous waste incinerator, including the chemical agent disposal facilities. In some states, separate air permits are issued to hazardous waste incinerators, while in others the RCRA permit requirements are adopted or changed to implement the requirements of the new MACT emissions standards for controlling the following pollutants ... [Pg.35]

The pollution control systems of the new plants will include activated carbon filters for the incinerator exhaust gas. This is fairly new technology, not in common use when JACADS and TOCDF were designed. Trial bum data on those two early plants showed that carbon filters were not needed to meet environmental standards. More recently, however, some samples of mustard have shown unexpectedly high levels of mercury that could be a problem in exhaust emissions. Carbon filters represent the technology of choice for handling this problem. Other changes in the pollution abatement system are required to accommodate the carbon filters. The exhaust gas must be cooled and its humidity reduced to maintain the carbon filter s function. [Pg.63]

Before the early 1960 s, institutional incineration systems were almost exclusively multiple-chamber types, designed and constructed according to Incinerator Institute of America (IIA) Incinerator Standards. Since these systems operated with high excess air levels, most required scrubbers in order to comply with air pollution control standards. Multiple-chamber type systems are occasionally installed at modem facilities because they represent proven technology. However, the most widely and extensively used incineration technology over the past 20 years is controlled-air incineration. This has also been called starved-air incineration, two-stage incineration, modulaf combustion, and pyrolytic combustion. More than 7000 controlled-air type systems have been installed by approximately 2 dozen manufacturers over the past 2 decades. [Pg.475]
