In order to determine if BCT hmitations would be necessary, the cost effectiveness of conventional pollutant reduction to BAT levels beyond BPT levels had to be determined and compared to the cost of removal of this same amount of pollutant by a publicly owned treatment works of similar capacity, if it was equally cost-effective for the industry to achieve the reduction required for meeting the BAT limitations as the POTW, then the BCT limit was made equal to the BAT level. When this test was applied, the BAT limitation set for certain categories were found to be unreasonable. In these subcategories EPA proposed to remove the BAT limitations and revert to the BPT limitations until BCT control levels could be formulated. [Pg.2160]

You may complete Part II for only the off-site locations that apply to the specific chemical cited in a particular report you can list all off-site locations that apply to all chemicals being reported and include a photostatic copy of Part II with each individual report. List only publicly owned treatment works (POTWs) and off-site treatment or disposal facilities. [Pg.36]

Acid used in the formation process is removed from the batteries and reused. The batteries are washed, fresh acid is added, and the batteries are tested, re-washed, and inspected before being shipped to an on-site warehouse. The intermediate and final washes generate process wastewater, as do the battery repair and housekeeping (floor washing) operations. This wastewater Is pretreated on-site and then piped to the local publicly owned treatment works (POTW). [Pg.82]

Wastewater streams with concentrations exceeding permit limits will require pretreatment prior to discharge to receiving waters or to publicly owned treatment works. Pretreatment may include separation of liquid wastes to remove big suspended solids, oils, solvents, and so on, as discussed in Section 7.8. [Pg.293]

Porcelain enameling plants are located primarily in the states of Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Kentucky, and Tennessee. Of the facilities, 76% discharge to publicly owned treatment works (POT Ws), 22% to streams or rivers, and 2% to both. Approximately 10% of the plants recycle, with an average recycle of 9.6 m3/h, which represents 46% of the average process water usage rate of 20.8 m3/h. The total porcelain enamel applied each year by all plants is estimated at 150 x 106 m2. [Pg.308]

Any existing source of the aluminum basis material subcategory that introduces pollutants into a publicly owned treatment works (POTW) must achieve the pretreatment standards listed in Table 8.31A.

Under indirect discharges, the wastewater is first sent to a publicly owned treatment works (POTW), and then, after treatment by the POTW, discharged pursuant to an NPDES permit. Under these requirements, the generator of the wastes cannot simply transfer the waste materials to a POTW. Rather, the wastes must satisfy applicable treatment and toxic control requirements known as pretreatment standards, where they exist. POTWs that receive hazardous wastes for treatment are also subject to certain RCRA permit-by-rule requirements, and remain subject to RCRA corrective action. [Pg.473]

According to the Toxics Release Inventory, in 1996, atotal of 16,938,957 pounds (7,683,382 kg) of lead was released to the environment from 1,494 large processing facilities (TRI96 1998). Table 5-1 lists amounts released from these facilities. In addition, an estimated 47,886 pounds (21,721 kg) were released by manufacturing and processing facilities to publicly owned treatment works (POTWs), and an estimated 350,783,734 pounds (159,112,825 kg) were transferred offsite (TRI96 1998). The TRI data should be used with caution because only certain types of facilities are required to report. This is not an exhaustive list. [Pg.390]

Because acrylonitrile is listed as a hazardous substance, disposal of waste acrylonitrile is controlled by number of federal regulations (see Chapter 7). Rotary kiln, fluidized bed and liquid injection incineration are acceptable methods of acrylonitrile disposal (HSDB 1988). Underground injection is another disposal method. The most recent quantitative information on amount of acrylonitrile disposed in waste sites is for 1987. Emissions were 0.9 metric tons in surface water, 152 metric tons disposed through Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW), 92 metric tons disposed of on land 1,912 metric tons by underground injection (TR11988). Because acrylonitrile is relatively volatile and is also readily soluble in water, release to the environment from waste sites is of concern. [Pg.81]
