                            1.0 INTRODUCTION

     This report summarizes the results of a dioxin/furana emissions test of a
wire reclamation incinerator equipped with an afterburner for hydrocarbon
emissions control.  The wire reclamation incincerator is used for recovery of
copper from coated copper wire and drained transformer cores.  The test was
the sixth in a series of several dioxin/furan emissions tests conducted under
Tier 4 of the National Dioxin Study.  The primary objective of Tier 4 is to
determine if various combustion sources are sources of dioxin and/or furan
emissions.  If any of the combustion sources are found to emit dioxin or
furan, the secondary objective of Tier 4 is to quantify these emissions.
     Wire reclamation incincerators are one of 8 combustion source categories
that have been tested in the Tier 4 program.  The tested incinerator,
hereafter referred to as incinerator WRI-A, was selected for this test after
an initial information screening and a one-day pretest survey visit.
Incinerator WRI-A is considered representative of the wire reclamation
incinerator population in the United States.  Wire processed in the
incinerator is obtained from a local power supply company and contains only
small quantities of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) coated wire.  Transformer cores
processed in the incinerator are obtained from another source and are
certified to have contained oil with less than 500 ppm of polychlorinated
biphenyls (PCB's).
     This test report is organized as follows.  A summary of test results and
conclusions is provided in Section 2.0, followed by a detailed process
description in Section 3.0.  The source sampling and analysis plan is outlined
in Section 4.0, and the field sampling and analytical data are presented in
Section 5.0.  Sections 6.0 through 9.0 present various testing details.   These
include descriptions of the sampling locations and procedures (Section 6.0),
descriptions of the analytical  procedures (Section 7.0),  and a summary of the
quality assurance/quality control  results (Section 8.0).   The appendices
contain data generated during the field sampling and analytical  activities.

 The term "dioxin/furan" and the acronyms PCDD and PCDF as used  in this  report
 refer to the polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxin and dibenzofuran  isomers  with
 four or more chlorine atoms.

                                  2.0  SUMMARY
 2.1   SOURCE SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS OVERVIEW
      The host  plant is a scrap metal  recovery facility that  processes  mainly
 aluminum and copper scrap.   Wire reclamation  incinerator WRI-A is  used to
 recover copper from insulated  wire and  drained transformer cores.   The
 incinerator is a batch feed  unit similar  to others  in  the wire reclamation
 industry.
      A  process flow diagram  of the incincerator and associated afterburner  is
 shown in Figure 2-1.   Wire and/or transformer cores are  charged to  the primary
 chamber of  the furnace on metal  trays using a fork  lift.  Exhaust gases from
 the primary chamber flow into  a settling  chamber, where  large  particulate
 matter  settles out,  and then into a gas-fired afterburner prior to  atmospheric
 discharge.
      The gaseous  and  solid sampling performed during the  test  program  is
 summarized  in  Table  2-1.  Sampling for dioxin and furan was performed  at the
 afterburner outlet exhaust stack  in each  of a series of six test runs
 conducted on March  19  through March 27, 1985.
      Only insulated wire was charged to the furnace during three test runs,
 and a combination of  insulated wire and drained transformer cores was charged
 to the  furnace during  the other three runs.  The dioxin/furan sampling
 was based on the October  1984 draft of the Modified Method 5 (MM5)  procedure
 developed by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) for measuring
 emissions of chlorinated organic compounds.  Modifications of the ASME
 procedure used at this test site are discussed in Section 6.1.2.1.   MM5 train
 components  and rinses were analyzed for dioxins and furans by EMSL-RTP and
 ECL-Bay  St. Louis, two of three EPA laboratories collectively known as Troika.
The dioxin/furan analysis quantified 2378-TCDD and the tetra- through
octa-dioxin/furan homologues present in the samples.
      Dioxin/furan precursor analyses were performed by Radian on samples of
wire  insulation and combustible components of the drained transformer cores.
The specific dioxin precursors analyzed for were chlorophenols,
chlorobenzenes, polychlorinated biphenyls, total organic halogen (TOX)  and
                                       2-1

total chlorine.  Dioxin/furan analyses were performed by Troika on ash samples
raked from the primary chamber and setting chamber after each test.   A single
composite soil sample was taken and transferred to Tier 7 of the National
Dioxin Study for potential dioxin/furan analysis.
     Continuous emissions monitoring (CEM) wast performed at the afterburner
outlet stack for CO, C02, NOX, total hydrocarbons (THC), and 02.  The
continuous monitoring data were used in conjunction with process data to
document the stability of combustion conditions during the test.  Hydrochloric
acid (HC1) emissions sampling was also performed at the afterburner outlet
exhaust stack during each test.

2.2  SUMMARY OF RESULTS
     Test results for Site WRI-A are summarized in Figure 2-2.  The data are
organized according to the feed type (i.e., wire-only or wire and
transformers).  An atmospheric damper on the stack located immediately below
the stack sampling ports was open during three of the runs and closed during
the other three runs.  Other process conditions were fairly consistent between
test runs.  Detectable quantities of all dioxin/furan species of  interest were
found in the stack gas samples:  However, some analytical difficulties were
encountered due to the large quantities of organic compounds present  in the
MM5 train samples.  As a result, complete data for all  homologues were not
reported for all test runs.  In spite of the low surrogate recoveries for the
tetra-, hepta-, and octa-chlorinated homologues, reported values  should be
regarded as minimum levels and actual values could have been considerably
higher.  These analytical difficulties are further discussed in
Section 8.3.1.1.
     As shown in Figure 2-2, average as-measured stack  gas concentrations of
2378-TCDD, total PCDD, and total PCDF were 0.09 ng/dscm, 124 ng/dscm, and 225
ng/dscm for the wire feed runs and 0.08 ng/dscm, 605 ng/dscm, and 715 ng/dscm
for the wire and transformer feed runs.  This corresponds to hourly mass
emission rates of 0.03 ug/hr, 114 ug/hr and 205 ug/hr for the wire feed runs
and 0.06 ug/hr, 522 ug/hr, and 626 ug/hr,for the transformer and wire feed
runs.  The hepta- and octa- homologues were the predominant dioxin/furan
species present in the stack gas emissions.

      Ash samples from the primary incinerator chamber and the setttling
 chamber were also analyzed for dioxin/furan content.  The average primary
 chamber ash concentrations of 2378-TCDD,  total  PCDD,  and total  PCDF were
 0.2 ppb, 243 ppb, and 746 ppb for the wire feed runs  and 0.01 ppb,  19 ppb,  and
 80 ppb for the wire and transformer feed  runs.   The settling chamber ash
 samples contained higher concentrations of dioxin/furan than the primary
 chamber samples.  The average concentrations of 2378-TCDD,  total PCDD,  and
 total  PCDF for the settling chamber ash samples were  0.1 ppb, 529 ppb,  and
 2643 ppb for the wire feed runs,  and 0.06 ppb,  236 ppb, and 684 ppb for the
 wire and transformer feed runs, respectively.
      The incinerator feed rate during the testing averaged 362 kg/hr
 (799 Ib/hr) for the wire feed runs and 313 kg/hr (691 Ib/hr) for the wire and
'transformer runs.  The primary chamber temperature was typically on the order
 of 560°C (1045°F), and the maximum afterburner temperature ranged from about
 985°C (1805°F) to 1090°C (2000°F).  Total chloride emissions from the
 incinerator averaged 1116 mg/dscm (1.08 kg/hr)  for the wire feed runs and 438
 mg/dscm (0.39'kg/hr) for the wire and transformer feed runs.  Average
 as-measured continuous flue gas monitoring results for the afterburner outlet
 stack were: 02, 6.6% vol; C02, 13.5% vol; CO, 5131 ppmv; THC, 577 ppmv, and
 NO , 111 ppmv.

                       3.0   PROCESS DESCRIPTION

     This  section describes  the  host site and the wire reclamation  incinerator
 tested.  Data  summarizing the operation of the incinerator and afterburner
 during the test periods  are  presented  in Section 5.0.

 3.1  HOST  SITE DESCRIPTION
     The host  site  is  a  scrap metal processing facility that handles mainly
 aluminum and copper-bearing  scrap materials.  A plot plan of the plant  is
 shown in Figure 3-1.   The facility operates a single wire reclamation
 incinerator that recovers copper from  insulated copper wire and copper-bearing
 drained transformer cores.   The  incinerator is referred to as wire  reclamation
 incinerator WRI-A in this test report  and in the Tier 4 program.  Two metal
 crushing devices are used to bundle aluminum scrap prior to resale.  Hand
 sorting of small metal pieces from metal punching facilities is also practiced
 at the host site.

 3.2  WIRE  RECLAMATION  INCINERATOR DESCRIPTION
     Wire  reclamation  incinerator WRI-A is a United Corporation Model G-466
 incinerator with a  rated capacity of 1200 Ib/hr of insulated wire.  The unit
 was installed  in 1978  and typically operates 8 hours per day, 5 days per week
 between the hours of 0900 and 1700.  As shown in Figures 3-2 and 3-3, the
 incinerator consists of  a primary combustion chamber, a settling chamber, and
 an afterburner.  Natural gas is  fired  in the primary combustion chamber and in
 the afterburner to  supplement the heating value of the combustible materials
 in the copper-bearing  scrap.
     Insulated copper wire and/or copper-bearing drained transformer cores are
 fed to the primary chamber of the incinerator on a steel  pallet using a fork
 lift.  The incinerator is operated in a batch mode,  with the combustion cycle
 for each batch of scrap feed lasting between 1 and 2 1/2 hours.  The number of
 feed cycles per day varies from 4 to 6 depending on  the type and quantity of
materials charged.

     The feed to the incinerator varies with each charge.  Plant personnel
estimate that 70 to 80 percent of the charges consist solely of different
types of wire.  Each wire feed batch is weighed before and after processing in
the incinerator.  The copper recovery efficiency (i.e., mass of copper
recovered per mass of incinerator feed) for wire-only batches is typically 85
to 90 percent, with the remaining 10 to 15 percent being attributable to
burned off wire insulation and coating.  Most of the wire is supplied by a
local power company and consists predominantly of weatherproof wire with
tar-based insulation.  Some of the wire (i.e., "peddler wire") is purchased
from individual scrap wire collectors who transport the wire to the plant via
pick-up truck.  The coating on much of this peddler wire has been partially
burned off prior to receipt by the plant.
     Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) coated wire represents only a small percentage
of the wire processed in incinerator WRI-A.  Most.of the PVC wire obtained by
the plant is baled up and sold for processing elsewhere.  The incinerator is
permitted to process up to 68 pounds of PVC plastic per hour, which
corresponds to approximately 200 pounds of PVC-insulated wire per hour.
However, the percentage of PVC coated wire in a typical feed charge is
estimated by plant personnel to be approximately i to 3 percent of the total
charge weight.  This corresponds to less than about 20 pounds per hour of PVC
coated wire under typical feed rate conditions.  PVC wire is not a desirable
feed componenet because of corrosion problems created by HC1 emissions.
     Drained transformer cores are co-fired with small amounts of wire in
approximately 20 to 30 percent of the charges .  "The transformer cores consist
of an alternating series of copper annular rings and cardboard annular rings
held together by a cylindrical cardboard/wood inner shell.  The cardboard and
wood parts are saturated with the oil  that was contained in the transformer
prior to being drained.   Most of the transformer cores come from a single
supplier,  and all  of them are certified to have contained oil  with less than
500 ppm PCB.   The transformer cores are partially disassembled and drained
off-site by the supplier.   The copper recovery efficiency of transformer cores
processed  in  the incinerator varies from about 65 to 90 percent,  with  the
remaining  10  to 35 percent being attributable to transformer combustibles.
                                      3-5

-------
 Small  transformers  typically  have  much  higher  copper  recovery  efficiencies
 than large  transformers.
     At the beginning  of  each feed charge cycle, combustible materials  in the
 feed are  ignited  using a  single  natural gas-fired burner that  fires over the
 top of the  feed pile.   The primary chamber burner is  turned off after 2 to 3
 minutes when  a self-sustaining flame  is visually observed in the primary
 chamber through an  inspection port in the charge door.  The charge remains in
 the incinerator until  the flame  in the primary chamber dies out and smoke is
 no longer visible through an  inspection port prior to the afterburner.  When
 the combustion cycle is complete the copper remaining on the feed tray is
 removed using a fork lift and is allowed to cool in the plant yard.
     The length of  each combustion cycle depends on the type and quantity of
 copper-bearing materials on the  feed tray, and on the number of previous
 charges made during the day.   The  length of the combustion charge cycles
 becomes shorter with each subsequent cycle in the day because of increasing
 primary chamber temperature.   The  first combustion cycle in a day requires
 approximately two and  a half  hours, while subsequent cycles typically last
 between one and two hours.  In general, feed charges containing transformer
 cores  require a longer combustion  cycle then those that contain wire only.
     Combustion conditions in  the  incinerator are controlled by varying
 the amount  of air in the primary chamber.  This can be achieved by adjusting
 the primary chamber doors and/or the settling chamber door.   Plant personnel
 adjust the  combustion  conditions at infrequent intervals based on the flame
 conditions  in the primary chamber  and .on the visual  opacity from the
 afterburner outlet  stack.
     Temperatures in the primary chamber are not routinely monitored by the
plant.   Thermocouples  installed for this test program showed that the mean
temperature in the  primary chamber is approximately 570°C (1050°F),  with a
range of approximately 315 to 650°C (600 to 1200°F).   The lower temperatures
typically occur at the beginning of the charge cycle  before  the new batch  has
been ignited.
                                    3-6

-------
3.3.  AFTERBURNER DESCRIPTION
     Exhaust gases from the primary chamber are drawn by natural draft through
a breeching that 'connects the primary chamber to the settling chamber.  Gases
flow through the settling chamber to the afterburner, where combustion of
unburned hydrocarbons is completed.  The afterburner is fired with natural
gas, and achieves temepratures ranging from about 980°C to 1090°C
(1800-2000°F).  The design energy input to the afterburner is 1.4 MMBtu/hr;
natural gas consumption data obtained during the test were consistent with
this.
     Gases leaving the afterburner flow through, a stack lined with 3 inches of
castable refractory.  The refractory-lined stack extends 12 feet above the top
of the afterburner, and there is an additional 6 feet of unlined stack on top
of this.  An "atmospheric damper" is located in the refractory lined section,
approximately 10 feet above the top of the afterburner.   The atmospheric
damper consists of an open-ended piece of ductwork perpendicular to the stack
that serves as a source of fresh air dilution for the afterburner offgas.   The
damper was originally welded closed for the test program because it was
believed to have an insignificant role in the afterburner operation.   The
closing of the damper eliminated the potential for ambient air/afterburner
exhaust stratification at the dioxin/furan sampling location.   However,  it
became apparent during the test program that the ambient air dilution at the
atmospheric damper served as a source of combustion air for residual
hydrocarbons leaving the afterburner.   As a result, the atmospheric damper was
re-opened after the first three test runs.   These modifications will  be
discussed in more detail  in Section 5.0.

                           4.0   TEST  DESCRIPTION

     This  section describes  the field  sampling,  process monitoring,  and
 analytical  activities  that were performed  for  test Site WRI-A.  The  purpose  of
 this section  is  to  provide sufficient  descriptive information about  the  test
 so that the test data  presented in Section 5.0 can be easily understood.
 Specific testing details  (specific sampling  locations and procedures)  are
 described   in Section  6.0.
     This  section is divided into three parts.   Section 4.1 summarizes field
 sampling activities, Section 4.2 summarizes  process monitoring activities, and
 Section 4.3 summarizes analytical activities performed during the test
 program.

 4.1  FIELD  SAMPLING
     Table  4-1 shows the source sampling and analysis matrix for test
 Site WRI-A.  Six dioxin/furan emissions tests  (Runs 01-06) were performed at
 the afterburner outlet exhaust stack.  This sampling location is shown as
 point A in  Figure 4-1.  The type of feed materials and the open/closed status
 of the atmospheric damper are shown in Table 4-2 for each run.   Dioxin/furan
 sampling followed the Modified Method 5 (MM5) sampling protocol  developed by
 the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)  for measuring emissions of
 chlorinated organic compounds.   During each test run, at least 240 minutes of
 on-line sampling were performed with the MM5 trains.
     Concentrations of HC1 in the flue gas were determined for each test day
 at the afterburner outlet exhaust stack using another modification of EPA
Method 5 (MM5/HC1).   Continuous emission monitoring  (CEM)  of 02,  CO,  C02, NO
 and total  hydrocarbons (THC)  was performed during each of the test runs except
for Run 06.  Due to equipment malfunctions, THC was  the only continuously
monitored exhaust gas parameter during Run 06.
     Three types of process samples were taken  during the MM5 test periods:
 incinerator feed samples, primary chamber bottom ash  samples,  and settling
chamber ash samples.   Samples  of combustible materials from each tray of wire
and/or transformer feed were  taken,  and daily composite samples  were  prepared.
                                     4-1

 Primary chamber bottom ash and settling chamber ash  samples  were taken  from
 the incinerator after each test run.
      Soil  samples  were collected from ten  locations  at  the plant site.
 The ten samples were combined  into  a  single  composite,  which was held
 for potential  dioxin/furan analysis pending  evaluation  of the MM5
 dioxin/furan  emissions data.

 4.2  PROCESS  DATA  COLLECTION
      Process  data  were collected to characterize the operation of the wire
 reclamation incinerator and the afterburner  during the  MM5 test periods.  A
 complete record of the incinerator  charge  weights and times  was maintained,
 along with natural  gas consumption  data.   Thermocouples  were installed  in  the
 primary chamber, the settling  chamber,  and two  locations  in  the afterburner
 for measuring  process  temperatures.   These data  will  be used in Section  5.1
 with the CEM data  to evaluate  and compare  combustion  conditions during the  MM5
 test periods.

 4.3   LABORATORY ANALYSES
      Laboratory analyses performed  on samples from test Site WRI-A included
 dioxin/furan analyses, dioxin/furan precursor analyses, and  total chloride
 analyses.  These analyses  are discussed in Sections 4.3.1, 4.3.2, and 4.3.3,
 respectively.
 4.3.1  Dioxin/Furan Analysis
     All dioxin/furan  analyses for Site WRI-A samples were performed by
 EMSL-RTP and ECL-Bay St. Louis, two of three EPA laboratories collectively
 referred to as Troika.  The three Troika laboratories are ERL-Duluth, ECL-Bay
St.  Louis,  and  EMSL-Research Triangle Park.
     Field samples requiring dioxin/furan analysis were prioritized based on
their relative  importance to the Tier 4 program objectives.   The priority
levels,  in order of decreasing importance,  were designated Priority 1 through
Priority 3.
     Priority  1 samples were sent-to Troika with instructions to perform
immediate extraction and analysis.  These included the MM5 train components
for the  afterburner outlet exhaust stack sampling location,  an MM5 field train

blank, an MM5 proof train blank, field solvent blanks, primary chamber ash
samples, and settling chamber ash samples.
     Priority 2 samples were sent to Radian/RTP for archiving.  These samples
may be analyzed for dioxin/furan in the future, pending the results of the
Priority 1 analyses.  Priority 2 samples at Site WRI-A include feed samples
taken for each test run.
     Priority 3 samples included only the composite soil sample.  The soil
sample is being held by Radian's Research Triangle Park (RTP), N.C. laboratory
pending evaluation of the Priority 1 and 2 analyses.
4.3.2  Dioxin/Furan Precursor Analysis
     Dioxin/furan precursor analyses of incinerator feed samples were
performed by Radian/RTP.  The specific dioxin/furan precursors to be analyzed
for included chlorophenols, chlorobenzenes, PCB's, total organic halogen
(TOX), and total chlorine.
4.3.3  Total Chloride Analysis
     Total chloride analysis was performed on front-half and back-half HC1
train samples by Radian's Austin, Texas laboratory.

                             5.0   TEST  RESULTS

     The  results  of the Tier 4 dioxin/furan  emissions testing of wire
 reclamation  incinerator WRI-A are presented  in  this  section.
     A description  of the  sample  periods  and test runs  is contained  in
 Section 5.1.   Process data obtained during the  test  runs are presented
 in Section 5.2, and flue gas parameter data  are presented in Section
 5.3.
     The  continuous monitoring results for 02,  CO, C02, NO  , and THC are
 presented in Section 5.4.   The dioxin/furan  emissions data  are contained  in
 Section 5.5.   Feed  sample  dioxin/furan precursor analyses are presented in
 Section 5.6, and  auxiliary process sample analyses are  presented in Section
 5.7.  Results  of  HC1  train sampling are presented in Section 5.8.

 5.1  DESCRIPTION  OF TEST PERIODS
     Six  test  runs  were performed at Site WRI-A during  the  period March 19
 through.March  27, 1985.  Three of the  test runs were conducted during
 conditions of  wire-only feed to the incinerator, and the other three
 test runs were conducted during conditions of wire and  transformer feed.
 The overlap of the  MM5/Dioxin, MM5/HC1, and  CEM sampling periods with
 the tray  charging history  of the  incinerator is represented in Figures
 5-1 and 5-2.
     Sampling  was performed  during all, or part of,  at least three tray cycles
 for each test  run.   Complete  tray cycles were sampled to the extent possible
within the time constraints  of the plant operating schedule and the sampling
procedures.  Sampling was not performed during the first feed cycle of each
test day in order to allow the incinerator and afterburner temperatures to
achieve quasi-steady state.  Because of the variable batch nature of the
process,  the overlap of the sampling periods  with  the feed history of the
incinerator was different for the individual  test  runs.   A brief description
of each test run is given below.

FIGURE 5-2.   STACK SAMPLING AND INCINERATOR CHARGING
                  HISTORIES FOR  RUNS 03,  04,  and 05
                     (WIRE  & TRANSFORMER RUNS)

-------
 Run  01
      Run  01  was  performed under conditions  of wire-only feed  with  the
 atmospheric  damper closed.   The MM5/dioxin  traverse was performed  using  only
 one  sample port  because  there  was  insufficient time to  perform  a port  change
 with the  water-cooled  probe  assembly.   Using  the  largest available sampling
 nozzle  (0.5  in),  isokinetic  sample flow rates were fairly low (0.25 cfm).  In
 order to  obtain  the desired  sample volume of  90 dscf  in the time period  that
 the  host  plant operated  the  incinerator (0900 - 1700  hours daily),  it  was
 decided to eliminate the port  change for this run.  This allowed an extra hour
 or more of on-line MM5/dioxin  sampling.

 Run  02
      Run  02  was  performed under conditions  of wire-only feed  with  the
 atmospheric  damper closed.   A  larger sampling nozzle  was procured  on-site, and
 the  resulting isokinetic sampling  flow  rate was high  enough to  allow time for
 a port change.   Port changes were  made  during each of Runs 02 through  06.

 Run  03
      Run  03  was  performed under conditions  of wire and  transformer  feed with
 the  atmospheric  damper closed.   Plant personnel reported that the pink-colored
 opacity observed  from the stack was atypical.  After  the test run  it was
 decided to open  the atmospheric damper  on the afterburner outlet stack because
 this  was  the only unusual operating condition  that could  potentially have
 caused the observed opacity.

 Run 04
      Run  04  was performed under  conditions of wire and transformer feed with
the atmospheric damper open.  Opacity from the unit was reduced  to a level
that was  considered typical by plant personnel.  The opening of  the
atmospheric damper also had the effect of increasing the length  of the
afterburner flame, and at times the flame extended up  past the sample  ports.
                                      5-4

-------
Run 05
     Run 05 was performed under conditions of wire and transformer  feed with
the atmospheric damper open,  identical to Run 04.

Run 06
     Run 06 was performed under conditions of wire-only feed with the
atmospheric damper open.

5.2  PROCESS DATA
     Process data were collected to document incinerator and afterburner
operation during the test runs.  These data included a complete record of the
feed cycle start/stop times, a complete record of tray weights before and
after incineration, and a series of natural gas consumption measurements.  In
addition, temperatures were monitored at four locations:  primary chamber,
settling chamber, afterburner, and afterburner stack.  An overview of the
process data is given in Table 5-1, and more thorough discussions of the
process rate data and temperature data are given below.
5.2.1  Process Rate Data
     The feed cycle start/stop times and tray weight data obtained during each
test period are listed in Table B-l of Appendix B.  From these discrete raw
data, average hourly feed rates of bare metal, wire insulation, and
transformer combustibles were developed for each test run.  Table 5-2
summarizes the resulting process rate data.  As used in this report, the term
"total feed rate" represents the sum of the bare metal, wire insulation, and
transformer combustibles feed rates.  The term "total combustibles feed rate"
represents the sum of the wire insulation and transformer combustibles feed
rates.
     The mean total feed rate during the wire-only runs (i.e. Runs 01,
02, and 06) was approximately 360 kg/hr (800 Ib/hr),  with a maximum
between-run deviation of about 16%.  The mean total  combustibles feed
rate (i.e., wire insulation feed rate) during these runs was approximately
45 kg/hr (100 Ib/hr), with a maximum deviation of about 11%.  Thus,  the
                                      5-5

-------
 average  feed  rates  to the incinerator were relatively constant for the
 wire-only  test runs.
     The mean total  feed rate during the wire  and  transformer runs (i.e.,
 Runs 03, 04,  and  05)  was approximately 310 kg/hr (690 Ib/hr),  with a  maximum
 deviation  of  about  38%.   The  mean  total  combustibles  feed  rate (i.e.,  wire
 insulation and transformer combustibles  feed rate) during  these runs  was
 approximately 65  kg/hr (140 Ib/hr) with  a maximum  deviation  of about  20%.
 Transformer combustibles represented about 70  percent of the total  combustible
 materials  fed to  the  incinerator, with a range of  54  to 88 percent.   Thus, the
 feed rate  data for  the wire and  transformer test runs show a higher degree of
 variability than  the  wire-only runs.   The reason for  this  is that  the
 transformers  come in  various  sizes and designs,  and the number of  transformers
 per tray is small (1-3 transformers  per  tray).  Thus,  significant  tray-to-tray
 differences exist when transformers  and  wire are fed  to the  incinerator, while
 the wire-only trays tend  to be quite  similar to each  other.
 5.2.2  Temperature Monitoring  Data
     Temperature  histories  were  obtained  at four monitoring  locations during
 the test runs.  Mean  values for  each  run  are summarized in Table 5-3.  The
 mean temperature  data show  fairly good consistency between runs, particularly
 for the primary chamber  and settling  chamber locations.  The mean primary
 chamber temperature for  all test runs was  approximately 560°C  (1045°F), and
 the mean settling chamber temperature  for  all  test runs was  approximately
 325 C (615  F).  The afterburner  temperatures showed more variability between
 runs.  The mean afterburner temperature  for all test  runs was "approximately
 1030 C (1800  F),  and  the mean  afterburner  stack temperature was approximately
 780 C (1440 F). It is  difficult  to generalize  about temperature differences
 between wire-only and  wire  and transformer runs because of the confounding
 effect of the  open/closed status of the  atmospheric damper.
     The within-run time/temperature histories for two test runs (Runs 01 and
 Run 04) are illustrated  in  Figures 5-3 and 5-4.  The data for Run 01 most
markedly show  the effects of the tray feed cycle on incinerator temperatures.
 Each time the  primary  chamber doors were opened to feed or remove a tray from
the incinerator,  the  primary chamber temperature dropped significantly from
                                       5-8

 approximately 600°C (1100°F)  to approximately 315°C (600°F).    The primary
 chamber temperature would quickly recover after the new feed  tray was charged
 and  the primary chamber doors were closed.   The settling chamber temperature
 followed a similar pattern.   Afterburner temperatures were less sensitive to
 the  feed cycle.
      Figure 5-3  and 5-4 also  show that during the course of a day-,  the primary
 chamber and settling chamber  temperatures slowly increase.  Afterburner
 temperatures increase for a period of 2 to  3 hours in the morning after the
 unit has been turned on,  but  these temperatures tend to level  off during the
 day.
 5.2.3   Natural Gas Consumption  Data
      Natural  gas  consumption  data were taken daily to estimate the  firing rate
 of the  afterburner.   These data are summarized in Table B-2 of Appendix B.
 Typically,  the natural  gas usage rate was about 0.6 cu meter/min
 (20  cu  ft/min), which corresponds to  about  1.2 MMBtu/hr energy input.   The
 data were  not taken  at frequent enough intervals  to make a firm conclusion
 regarding  differences in  natural  gas  usage  between  runs.

 5.3  FLUE  GAS PARAMETER DATA
     Table  5-4 summarizes  flue  gas  temperature, moisture, volumetric flowrate
 and oxygen  concentration data obtained  at Site  WRI-A.  These parameters were
 fairly consistent  between  test  runs.   The average flue gas temperature  and
moisture content measured  for the runs with wire-only  feed were 700°C and
 13.4%, while the averages  for the runs with wire  and transformer feed were
 652 C and  14.1 %.  The  average  gas  flowrates  for the wire-only  feed and wire
 and transformer feed  runs  under actual stack  temperature and moisture
 conditions were 58.8  acmm  (2076  acfm)  and 59.1  acmm   (2087 ascfm),
respectively.  The average dry  standard flowrate was 15.1 dscmrn (534 dscfm)
for the wire-only  feed  runs and  15.7 dscmrn  (556 dscfm) for the wire and
transformer feed runs.  Standard  EPA conditions are 20°C (68°F) and 1 atm.

 5.4   CONTINUOUS  EMISSIONS MONITORING DATA
   •  Mean  values and standard deviations  of the continuously monitored
 combustion gases at the afterburner outlet  location  (02,  CO,  C02,  NO ,  and
 THC)  are shown for each MM5 test run in Table 5-5.   The data show  a fairly
 high  degree of variability between  runs for most of  the gas  species monitored.
      Mean  flue-gas oxygen values for the  three test  runs  conducted with
 the atmospheric  damper closed (Runs 01, 02,  03)  ranged from  3.7% 02 to
 5.2%  02, with an average of 4.4% 02.  As  expected, flue gas  oxygen values were
 higher  for runs  with the atmospheric damper open than for runs  with the
 atmospheric damper closed.   This is due to  the fact  that  the CEM sampling
 location was above (i.e.,  downstream of)  the atmospheric  damper, and the
 exhaust gas was  diluted with ambient air  when the atmospheric damper was open.
 The mean flue gas oxygen values  for the three test runs conducted  with  the
 atmospheric damper open (Runs 04, 05,  06) ranged from 6.8% 02 to 10.3%  02,
 with  an average  of 8.7% 0-.
      Mean  carbon monoxide concentrations  were found  to be relatively high for
 all test runs, regardless of the feed, type  or the open/closed status of the
 atmospheric damper.   The mean values (corrected  to 3% 02)  ranged from
 approximately 3400 ppmv CO  (Run  01)  to 8000  ppmv CO  (Run  05), with  an average
 of 5100 ppmv CO  for all  runs.  There is apparently no significant difference
 between CO emissions  during  wire-only  feeding and wire &  transformer feeding.
      Total  hydrocarbon  concentrations  were  found to  be highly variable  between
 runs, with  concentrations for wire-only runs  (Runs 01, 02, 06)  being  lower
 than  concentrations for wire  and transformer  runs (Runs 03, 04, 05).  The mean
 total hydrocarbon  concentration  (corrected to 3% 02) ranged from approximately
 30 ppmv to  650 ppmv for wire-only runs, with  a mean  value of  280 ppmv.  The
 mean  values  for wire  &  transformer runs ranged from  approximately 350 ppmv to
 1470  ppmv, with  a  mean  value  of 880  ppmv.   These  data are consistent with
 visual  observations of  opacity and hydrocarbon build-up on the  sample train
 filters.
      Five minute average concentration values for each of the continuously
monitored combustion  gases are tabulated in Appendix A-Z and  are shewn
graphically  as functions of time in  Figures 5-5 through 5-14.  These data show
considerable short-term variations in each of the continuously monitored gas
concentrations.

      The  time behavior of the monitored  concentrations  for runs  with  the
 atmospheric damper closed (Runs  01-03) is  different  than  that  for runs  with
 the  atmopsheric damper open  (Runs  04-06).   Runs  01-03 show a distinctly
 cyclical  behavior,  particularly  in flue  gas oxygen,  carbon monoxide,  and  total
 hydrocarbon concentrations.   The CO and  THC concentrations show  typical
 inverse relationships  with flue  gas oxygen.   When  the flue gas oxygen
 concentration is high,  concentrations of both CO and THC  become  small,  and
 vice versa.   Thus,  when excess oxygen is high, combustion is more complete in
 the  afterburner.  The  measured variability in flue gas  oxygen  concentrations
 is attributable to the batch nature of the process and  to the  irregular
 adjustments of combustion air made by plant personnel.
      In general, the continuous  monitoring data  for  Runs  04-06 (atmospheric
 damper open)  show less short term  variability than that for Runs 01-03.   Large
 changes in  measured values occurred less frequently  during Runs  04-06.  The
 most likely reason for this  is that the  incinerator  has a more stable draft
 behavior  with the atmospheric damper open,  which leads  to less short-term
 excess oxygen variability in the afterburner,,

 5.5   DIOXIN/FURAN EMISSIONS  DATA
      This section presents the dioxin/furan  emissions data measured at  the
 afterburner outlet  exhaust stack.   Due to  analytical difficulties, results
 were not  reported for  the complete  set of  target homologues for  all test  runs.
 Average total  PCDD  and  total  PCDF emissions  for  the  test  runs  were calculated
 by summing  the  average "emissions of each homologue.  Test  runs where data were
 not  reported  for a  given  homologue  were  not  considered when calculating the
 average emissions of that  homologue.  For example,  hexa-CDD analytical data
were reported for Runs  01  and  06 of the wire-only feed set, but were not
 reported for Run 02.  Average  hexa-CDD emissions for wire-only feed runs were
calculated as the average  of values  from Run 01 and 02 only.
     Section 5.5.1  presents data for the wire-only feed runs (Runs 01, 02, and
06),  and Section 5.5.2  presents data for the wire and transformer feed runs
 (Runs 03,  04, and 05).
5.5.1  Wire-Only Feed Runs (Runs 01. 02 and
     Emission concentrations and emission rate data for the wire-only feed
runs are shown in Table 5-6 and 5-7 for the 2378-TCDD, total PCDD, and total

PCDF species.  The data include dioxin and furan collected in the entire MM5
train, including filter, XAD sorbent trap, impingers, and sample train
clean-up rinses.  Data are not available for some isomers due to contamination
of the sample extracts.  This contamination led to low recovery efficiencies
for some isomers.  As a result, in the following sections it will be noted
that for some isomer-specific analyses, the results were not reported by
Troika.  In any case, the analyses indicated that the 2378 isomers are less
than 25 percent of the respective total TCDD and TCDF concentrations.
     Average as-measured emissions concentrations of the 2378-TCDD, total
PCDD, and PCDF species, were 0.093 ng/dscm 2378-TCDD; 124 ng/dscm total-PCDD;
and 225 ng/dscm total PCDF.  When corrected to 3% 02 using the Radian CEM
oxygen concentration data, these values correspond to 0.138 ng/dscm @ 3% 02;
173 ng/dscm @ 3% 02; and 305 ng/dscm @ 3% 0,,, respectively.  Average emission
rates for the three species were 0.09 ug/hr 2378-TCDD, 114 ug/hr total PCDD,
and 205 ug/hr total PCDF.  Comparison of data reported for individual
wire-only feed test runs indicates that dioxin/furan emissions for Run 06 were
considerably higher than emissions for Runs 01 and 02.  The primary operating
difference between Run 06 and Runs 01/02 was that the atmospheric damper was
open for Run 06 and closed for Runs 01 and 02,  However, this does not appear
to be responsible for the difference in the measured emissions because the
same trend was not observed for the wire and transformer feed runs (see
Section 5.5.2).
     Isomer- and homologue-specific emission concentration data are summarized
in Tables 5-S and 5-9 for the three wire-only feed test runs'.  Run-specific
data tables showing homologue emission concentrations in both ng/dscm and
parts-per-trillion units and homologue emission rates in ug/hr units are
included in Appendix D.
     Figure 5-15 is a histogram that shows the relative distributions of the
2378-TCDD/TCDF  isomers and the tetra-through octa PCDD/PCDF homologues in the
emissions (mole basis).  Homologues for which analytical data were not
reported by Troika for Runs 01 and 02 were assigned  zeroes for their
contribution to the total PCDD and total  PCDF emissions, although these
homologues may  actually have been present in the flue gas stream.   Run 06 was
the wire-only feed run for which a complete set of analytical data were
reported by Troika.  The hepta- and octa-chlorinated homologues were the
primary dioxin  species present in the Run 06 samples, accounting for 50 and 45

percent of the total PCDD, respectively.  Furan emissions were  somewhat more
evenly distributed among the various homologues but the hepta-  and
octa-chlorinated homologues were again the predominant species.
     Emission factors based on the total  incinerator feed rate  (i.e., metals
and combustibles) for the afterburner outlet at site WRI-A are  shown  in
Table 5-10.  Average emission factors for 2378-TCDD, total PCDD,  and  total
PCDF were 0.0002 ug 2378-TCDD emitted per kg total feed; 0.36 ug  total PCDD
emitted per kg total feed; and 0.63 ug total PCDF emitted per kg  total feed.
Emission factors for the various dioxin and furan homologues varied
considerably between runs.
5.5.2  Wire and Transformer Feed Runs (Runs 03. 04 and 05^
     Emission concentrations and emission rate data for the wire  and
transformer feed runs are shown in Tables 5-11 and 5-12 for the 2378-TCDD,
total PCDD, and total PCDF species.  The  data include dioxin and  furan
collection in the entire MM5 train, including filter, primary XAD sorbent
trap, impingers, and sample train clean-up rinses.
     Average as-measured emissions concentrations of the 2378-TCDD, total
PCDD, and PCDF species were 0.083 ng/dscm 2378-TCDD; 605 ng/dscm total PCDD;
and 715 ng/dscm total .PCDF.  When corrected to 3% Qy using the Radian CEM
oxygen concentration data, these values correspond to 0.13 ng/dscm @ 3% 02,
705 ng/dscm @ 3% 02, and 866 ng/dscm 9 3% 02,  respectively.  Average emission
rates for the three species were 0.08 ug/hr 2378-TCDD,  520 ug/hr total PCDD,
and 630 ug/hr total PCDF.  Dioxin/furan emissions were considerable higher for
Run 03 than for Runs 04 and 05.  The primary operating difference between
Run 03 and Runs 04 and 05 was that the atmospheric damper was closed for
Run 03 and open for Runs 04 and 05.  As noted in Section 5.1, the open/closed
status of the atmospheric damper had a marked effect on the opacity from the
incinerator under the wire and transformer feed conditions.  The higher
opacity observed for Run 03 was consistent with the higher THC and
dioxin/furan emissions relative to Runs 04 and 05.
     Isomer- and homologue specific emission concentration data are summarized
in Tables 5-13 and 5-14 for the three wire and transformer feed test runs.

ng/dscm and parts-per-trillion units and homologue emission rates in ug/hr
units are included in Appendix D.  Figure 5-16 is a histogram that shows the
relative distributions of the 2378-TCDD/TCDF isomers and the tetra- through
octa PCDD/PCDF homologues in the emissions (mole basis).  Homologues for which
analytical data were not reported by Troika for Run 04 were assigned zeroes
for their contribution to the total PCDD and PCDF emissions, although these
homologues may actually have been present in the flue gas stream.
     The hepta- and octa-chlorinated homologues were the primary dioxin/furan
species present in the samples with smaller but measureable quantities of the
tetra- through hexa species also present.  In general, the furan emissions
were more evenly distributed among the various homologues than the dioxin
emissions.
     Emission factors for the wire and transformer feed runs are shown in
Table 5-15.  Average emission factors for 2378-TCDD, total PCDD, and total
PCDF were 0.0004 ug 2378-TCDD emitted per kg of total feed, 1.4 ug total PCDD
emitted per kg total feed, and 1.8 ug total PCDF emitted per kg total feed,
respectively.
5-5-3  Comparison of Wire-Only Feed vs. Wire and Transformer Feed Runs
     Table 5-16 compares the as-measured dioxin and furan concentrations and
emission rates for the wire-only feed runs to the corresponding data for the
wire and transformer feed runs.  The data show considerable scatter, and it is
difficult to generalize which feed material had higher emissions.  Runs 03,
which showed tha highest emissions of any test run, was a wire and transformer
feed run.

5.6  INCINERATOR FEED PRECURSOR DATA
     As discussed in Section 4.3.2, the incinerator feed was sampled at Site
WRI-A.  Two representative samples were taken for the 6 runs.   One was a
sample of the combustibles from the wire only feed while the second sample
included combustibles from the wire and transformer feed.   These samples were
analyzed for chlorinated benzenes, chlorinated biphenyls,  and chlorinated
phenols.

      Table 5-17 summarizes the results of the compound-specific precursor
 analyses.  Significant analytical  difficulties were encountered when
 performing the analyses.  These difficulties are discussed in Section 8.3.2.
 A small  amount of chlorinated phenols were detected in both samples, but
 overall  the specific precursors analyzed for (chlorobenzenes, chlorophenols,
 and chlorinated biphenyls) were not detected.  This suggests that either (1)
 the specific precursors analyzed for were not present in the samples, or (2)
 the precursors were not easily detected using the 6C/MS procedure.  Due to the
 nature of the transformer samples,  it was originally anticipated that PCB's
 would be detected.   A total  organic halogen (TOX) screen of the samples using
 a Hall  detector indicated the presence of 201 ug/g TOX in the wire insulation
 sample and 23 ug/g  TOX in the transformer combustible samples.
      Table 5-18 presents the results of incinerator feed total chloride
 analysis of transformer combustible samples.  The chloride concentration was
 not very consistent among the samples analyzed.   The average total chloride
 content  of the samples was 270 ug/g, with a range of 125 to 443 ug/g.

.5.7 'ASH'SAMPLE ANALYSES                •    -
      Tables 5-19 and 5-20 summarize the dioxin/furan analyses performed on
 primary  chamber ash and settling chamber ash samples,  respectively.   Total
 PCDD content of primary chamber ash samples ranged from 0.2 ppb (Run 05,  wire
 and transformer feed)  to 368.2 ppb  (Run 01,  wire feed  only).   Total  PCDF
 content  of primary  chamber ash samples were consistently higher than the PCDD
 content  for all  six runs.   Total PCDF concentrations ranged from 3.0 ppb
 (Run 05,  wire and transformer feed)  to 1335.6 ppb (Run  06 wire only  feed).
      Settling chamber  ash  samples consistently contained higher levels  of
 dioxin/furan than the  corresponding  primary  chamber  ash  samples.   Total  PCDD
 concentrations  for  the settling chamber ash  samples  ranged from 133.0 ppb
 (Run 05,  wire and transformer feed)  to 2217.9 ppb (Run 06,  wire feed only).
 Corresponding total  PCDF concentrations  ranged from  681.9 ppb  (Run 03, wire
 and  transformer  feed)  to 8332.4 ppb  (Run 06,  wire only feed.)   Overall,  for
 both the  primary  chamber ash  and the  settling  chamber ash,  samples from the
 wire-only  runs contained higher levels of dioxin/furan than samples  from  the
 wire and  transformers  feed runs.

     Table  5-21 summarizes  HCl  train  chloride!  emissions data  measured  at  the
                                             i
 afterburner outlet  sampling location.   The  data  are  reported  as  "front-half,"
 "back-half," and "train-total"  chloride emissions.   The front-half emissions
 represent chlorides captured in the probe rinse/filter fraction  of the HCl
 train, which may include metal  chlorides contained in the  particulate  matter;
 The  back-half emissions represent chlorides captured in the HCl  sample train
 impingers,  which would  include  HCl and any  metal  chlorides that  pass through
•the  sample  train filter.  The train total emissions  represent the  sum  of  the
 front-half  and  back-half emissions.
     As shown in Table  5-21,  the average as-measured train-total chloride
 emissions concentration was approximately 1120 mg/dscm (0.48  grains/dscf) for
 the  wire-only feed  runs while the wire and  transformer feed runs averaged
 440  mg/dscm (0.19 grains/dscf).   Corrected  to  3%  02  using  the Radian CEM  data,
 this corresponds to approximately 1190 mg/dscm (0.52 grains/dscf)  and
 530 mg/dscm (.23 grains/dscf),  respectively.   The average  train-total  chloride
 mass emission rate  for  Runs 01,  02, and  06  (wire  feed only) was about
 1.0 kg/hr (2.2  Ib/hr),  while  an  average  of  0.39 kg/hr (0.86 Ib/hr) was emitted
 during Runs  03,  04,  and 05  (wire  and transformer  feed).

                  6.0  SAMPLING LOCATIONS AND PROCEDURES

     Samples were collected from six different locations at Site 06.  Two of
the locations were for gaseous sampling, and four were for solids sampling.
The source sampling and analysis matrix in Table 4-1 lists the sample
locations, measured parameters, sampling methods, and analytical methods that
were used.
     Details on the sampling locations and methods are discussed in
Sections 6.1 through 6.3  Continuous monitoring procedures for CO, C02, 0?,
NOX, and THC are included in Section 6.1.

6.1  GASEOUS SAMPLING
     Four types of gaseous samples were taken during this test program:
Modified Method 5 (MM5), HC1, EPA Method 3, and continuous monitoring (CEM).
The sampling locations and methods are further discussed in this section.
6.1.1.  Gaseous Sampling Locations
     6.1.1.1  Afterburner Outlet Exhaust Stack.  The afterburner outlet
exhaust stack sampling locations are shown collectively as point A in
Figure 4-1.  These locations were used for dioxin sampling and HC1 sampling
using MM5 procedures described in Section 6.1.2, and also for CEM sampling.
Gas velocity, molecular weight, and moisture were determined using EPA Methods
1 through 4.
     Dimensions of the afterburner outlet exhaust stack sampling locations are
shown in Figure 6-1 along with the temperature monitoring locations.   The
stack consists of three 4 ft tal1 • refractory lined 24 inch 00 steel  sections
and one 6 ft tall unlined 24 inch 00 steel section.  The refractory lining is
3 inches thick and the steel is 1/4 inch thick.
     Two 4 inch diameter sampling ports were installed approximately 0.5 duct
diameters below the top of the stack and 3 duct diameters downstream of the
nearest flow disturbance (end of the refractory lined section of the stack).
These ports were used for dioxin sampling using the MM5 procedure described in
Section 6.1.2.1.  Based on EPA Method 1,  24 traverse points were required for
velocity determination at this location.

-------
     One 4 inch diameter sampling port was installed 1.75 duct diameters below
the MM5 location.  This port was used for continuous monitoring of CO, C02,
0?, NO , and THC.
 «    rt
     The center!ine of the atmospheric damper is located approximately
21 inches below the top of the refractory lined section of the stack, which is
about 1.5 duct diameters below the CEM sampling port.  The damper consists of
a 9 inch diameter cylindrical piece of unlined duct that extends approximately
6 inches out from the stack.  During Runs 01, 02, and 03, the 9 inch diameter
hole at the end of the damper was welded completely shut using a sheet metal
plate.  A 6 inch diameter hole was re-opened in the plate prior to Run 04 to
allow additional combustion air to enter the stack.  This returned the unit to
its original  condition prior to the test program.
6-1-2  Gaseous Sampling Procedures
     Gas sampling procedures used during this program are discussed in detail
in the Tier 4 Quality Assurance Project Plan (QAPP).  A summary of the gas
sampling methods used at Site WRI-A is given in Table 6-1,  and a brief
description of each method is provided in the following sections.
     6.1.2.1   Modified Method 5 (MM5).  Sampling for dioxin/furan  was
conducted according to the October 1984 draft of the ASME chlorinated organic
compound sampling protocol.  This sampling method is a modified version of EPA
Method 5 that includes a solid sorbent module for trapping  vapor phase
organics.  The only differences in the sampling protocol  which were not
discussed in  the Tier 4 QAPP are:
     (1)  Benzene was substituted for hexane or toluene as  both the cleanup
          and extractant solvent for both the MM5 filters and the  XAD-2 resin.
          This was because of a discrepancy between the draft ASME sampling
          protocol and the draft ASME analytical  protocol.   (November 16,  1985)
     (2)  Methylene chloride was substitued for hexane as the final  field
          rinse solvent for the MM5 train.   Methylene chloride was also
          substituted for hexane in the glassware cleaning  procedure.   This
          was due to a high field blank train.  (February  27,  1985)

     The MM5  sampling train was used to collect samples at the exhaust  stack.
A total of six MM5 test runs were conducted, with one test run being conducted
per test day.  The MM5 samples were collected  isokinetically over a minimum 4
hour on-line  sampling period at the afterburner outlet in order to provide a
minimum sample volume of 90 dscf.  Complete batch cycles were sampled to the
extent possible, but the variability in batch  cycle length and the limited
operating hours of the plant made this difficult.  A record of the sampling
periods in relation to the batch feed history  of the incinerator was presented
previously in Section 5.1.  The MM5 sampling rate ranged from approximately
0.25 dscfm (Run 01) to 0.5 dscfm (Runs 02-06).  Following sample recovery, the
various parts of the sample (filter, solvent rinses, sorbent trap, etc.) were
sent to the EPA's Troika laboratories to quantify the 2378-TCDD, tetra-
through octa-dioxin homologues, and tetra- through octa-furan homologues
present in the samples.
     A schematic diagram of the MM5 sampling train is shown in Figure 6-2.
Flue gas is pulled from the stack through a nozzle and a glass'probe.  Due to
the high stack gas temperatures encountered, a water cooled probe was used at
this test site.  Particulate matter is removed from the gas steam by means of
a glass fiber housed in a teflon-sealed glass filter holder maintained at 248
± 25 F.  The gas passes through a sorbent trap similar to that illustrated in
Figure 6-3 for removal of organic constituents.  The trap consists of separate
sections for cooling the gas stream and for adsorbing the organic compounds on
Amber!ite XAD-2R resin (XAD).  A chilled impinger train following the sorbent
trap is used to remove water from the flue gas, and a dry gas meter is used to
measure the sample gas flow.
     6.1.2.2  HC1 Determination.  HC1  concentrations in the outlet exhaust
stack was determined using another modification of EPA Method 5.   The HC1
sample train and operation are identical to those of Method 5 with the
following exceptions:
     1.  Water in the first two impingers was replaced with 0.1 m NaOH.
     2.  Sampling was single point isokinetic with the nozzle placed at
         points in the stack with approximate average velocity.
     3.  The moisture/NaOH in the impingers were saved for laboratory
         analysis by ion chromatography.

 Recovery of the HC1  train provided a sample consisting of three components:
 probe rinse,  filter, and back-half rinse/impinger catch.   These samples and
 appropriate sample blanks were sent to Radian's Austin,  Texas laboratory for
 total chloride analysis via ion chromotagraphy.  The filter and probe rinse
 for each run  were combined and analyzed as the "front-half" total  chloride,
 and the impinger catch and rinses were analyzed as the "back-half" total
 chloride.
      6.1.2.3   Volumetric Gas Flow Rate Determination.  The volumetric gas  flow
 rate was determined  using EPA Method 2.   Based on this method,  the volumetric
 gas flow rate was determined by measuring the  average  velocity  of  the flue gas
 and the cross-sectional  area of the duct.   The average flue gas velocity was
 calculated  from the  average gas velocity pressure (AP) across an S-type pitot
 tube,  the average flue gas temperature,  the wet molecular  weight,  and the
 absolute static pressure.
      6.1.2.4   Flue Gas Moisture Determination,;   The  moisture content  of the
 flue  gas was  determined  using  EPA Method 4.  Based on  this  method,  a  known
 volume  of particulate-free gas  was pulled  through a  chilled impinger  train.
 The quantity  of condensed  water was  determined  gravimetrically  and  then
 related  to  the  volume  of gas sampled to  determine the mositure  content.
      6.1.2.5   Flue Gas Molecular Weight  Determination.  The integrated
 sampling technique described in  EPA  Method  3 was  used to obtain  composite flue
 gas-samples for fixed  gas  (02,  C02,  N2)  analysis.  A small  diaphragm  pump and
 a stainless steel  probe  were used  to extract single point flue gas  samples.
 The samples were  collected  at the  MM5  sampling  ports using  TedlarR  bags.
 Moisture was  removed from  the gas  sample by a water-cooled  condenser  so that
 the fixed gas analysis was  on a  dry  basis.    !
     The composition of  the gas  sample was determined using  a Shimadzu Model
 3BT analyzer  instead of  the Fyrite or Orsat analyzer prescribed  in Method 3.
 The Shimadzu  instrument  employs  a gas chromatograph and a thermal conductivity
 detector to determine the  fixed  gas  composition of the sample.
     6.1.2.6  Continuous Monitoring.  Continuous monitoring was performed at
the afterburner exhaust  sampling location for 02, C02,  CO, NO ,  and THC
throughout the period that dioxin sampling was conducted.   The primary intent
of the continuous monitoring effort was to observe fluctuations  in flue gas
                                       6-8

-------
 parameters  and  to  provide  an  indication  of cbmbustion  conditions.   Sample
 acquisition was accomplished  using  an  in-stack  filter  probe  and  TeflonR sample
 line connected  to  a mobile laboratory.   The heat-traced  sample line was
 maintained  at a temperature of  at least  120°C (250°F)  to prevent condensation
 in the  sample line.  The stack  gas  sample  was drawn through  the  filter  and
 sample  line using  pumps located in  the mobile laboratory.  Sample gas to be
 analyzed for CO, C02, 02,  and NOX were pumped through  a  sample gas
 conditioner, which consisted  of an  ice bath and knockout trap.   The sample gas
 conditioner removes mositure  and thus provides  a dry gas stream  for analysis.
 A separate  unconditioned gas  stream was  supplied to the  THC  analyzer for
 analysis on a wet basis.
     An Anarad  Model 412 nondispersive infrared (NDIR) analyzer  was used to
 measure CO  and  C02; a Beckman Model 755  paramagnetic analyzer was used  to
 measure 02; and  a Beckman  Model  402 flame  ionizatjon analyzer was used  to
 measure THC.

 6.2  SOLID  SAMPLING
     Four types  of solid samples were collected at Site  WRI-A: incinerator
.feed, primary chamber ash,  settling chamber ash, and soils.   The sampling
 locations and methods are  discussed in this  section.
 6-2.1   Incinerator Feed Sampling
     Representative feed samples were taken  from each  feed tray  processed in
 the incinerator  during MM5/dioxin sampling.  Tray samples taken  during  each
 test run were composited at the  end of the  run.   The composite incinerator
 feed samples for Runs 01,  02, and 06 consisted solely  of pieces  of wire.  The
 different types  of wire on  each  tray were  sampled in visually representative
 amounts using a  manual wirecutter.  The  composite incinerator feed  samples for
 Runs 03, 04, and 05 consisted of pieces  of  wire and combustible  materials  	
 removed from the drained transformer cores.. The transformer combustibles
 consisted primarily of paper, wood, and  cardboard pieces that were removed
 using wire  cutters and a saw.  Due to the complex construction of the
 transformer cores, samples that would be representative  on a more quantitative
 basis would be very difficult to obtain.
                                      6-9

-------
6.2.2   Incinerator Ash  Sampling
     Ash  samples  were obtained from both  the  primary  chamber  and  the  settling
chamber after  each run.   Primary  chamber  ash  was  removed  from the floor  of  the
primary chamber using a cleaned shovel.   Settling chamber ash was raked  from
the floor of the  settling chamber using a flat  shovel-like tool.   Both ash
samples for each  run were obtained in  the morning following the test  run,
after the incinerator had cooled  down  from the  previous day's operation.  A
total of  twelve ash samples were  submitted to Troika  for  analysis (2  types  of
ash samples for each of 6 test runs).
6.2.3   Soil Sampling                                                     •
     A  single  composite  soil sample  comprised of  10 individual soil samples
was obtained at Site WRI-A.  Soil  sampling protocol for Tiers  3,  5, 6, and  7
of the  National Dioxin Study are  specified In the document, "Sampling Guidance
Manual  for the National  Dioxin Study."  A similar protocol was used for soil
sampling  at this test site.  A total of 10 soil sampling  locations were
selected  on or near the  plant property.   The  10 individual soil sampling
locations are shown in Figure 6-4.  Soil  samples .were collected by forcing a
bulb planter into the soil to a depth of  3 inches.  The soil samples were then
composited in a clean stainless steel bucket; A portion of the composite was
placed in a bottle and returned to Radian/ RTF for archiving.

                           7.0   ANALYTICAL  PROCEDURES

      Laboratory  procedures used to  quantify  dioxins/furans  and  dioxin/furan
precursors  in  the Tier  4  samples are  described  in  this  section.   MM5  train
samples were analyzed by  EPA's  Troika laboratories  for  dioxin/furan content.
Procedures  used  for these analyses  are described in detail  in the Analytical
Procedures  and QA Plan  for the  Analysis of Tetra through Octa CDD's and  CDF's
in Samples  from  Tier 4  Combustion and Incineration  Processes (addendum to
EPA/600/3-85-019, April 1985).   These procedures are summarized  in
Section 7.1.
      Combustion  device  feed samples from Site WRI-A were analyzed by  Radian to
determine concentrations  of chlorinated phenols (CP), chlorobenzenes  (CB),
polychlorinated  biphenyls (PCBs), total organic halogen (TOX) and total
chlorine.   Procedures used for  these  analyses are detailed  in Section 7.2.

7.1   DIOXINS/FURANS
      The analytical- procedures  summarized in this section were used-by Troika
for dioxin/furan analysis of MM5 train samples from Site WRI-A.  Samples
consisting  of  organic solvents,  aqueous solutions, and  solids were prepared
for analysis using slightly different procedures.  The  organic solvent samples
consisted of rinses from  the MM5 probe, nozzle, filter  housing and condenser
coil.  Aqueous samples  consisted of impinger catch solutions, and solid
samples included filters  and XAD resin.  Isotopically-labeled surrogate
compounds were added to all samples prior to extraction to  allow determination
of method efficiency and  for quantification purposes.
      Organic liquid samples (e.g., acetone and methylene chloride-based MM5
train rinses) were concentrated using a nitrogen blowdown apparatus.   The
residue, which contained  particulate matter from the MM5 train probe and
nozzle, was combined with the filter  and handled as a solid sample.   Solid
samples were extracted with benzene in a Soxhlet apparatus for a period of at
least 16 hours.  The extract was concentrated by nitrogen blowdown and
subjected to chromatographic cleanup procedures.
     Aqueous solutions (e.g.,  MM5 train impinger samples)  were extracted with
hexane by vigorous shaking for a three hour period.  This  extraction  procedure

                                     7-1

-------
 was  repeated three times,  with the organic fractions  ultimately being combined
 and  concentrated for chromatographic cleanup!
      The cleanup procedure involved using chromatographic columns  to separate
 the  compounds of interest  from other compounds  present in the samples.   Four
 different types of columns were used:  a combination acid and base  modified
 silica gel  column, a basic alumina column,  a PX-21 carbon/eelite 545 column
 and  a silica/diol  micro column.  These were used in successive steps,  with the
 last two being used only if necessary.
      The cleaned samples were analyzed using high resolution gas
 chromatography/high resolution mass spectrometry (GC/MS).   The conditions  for
 analysis were as follows:
                                                                         :
 Gas  Chromatograph  - Injector configured for capillary column,  split!ess  I
 injection,  injector temperature 280°C,  helium carrier gas  at 1.2 ml/min,
 initial  column temperature 100°C,  final  column  temperature 240°C,  interface
 temperature 270°C.                                                       ;
Mass Spectrometer  - Varian/MAT Model 311A, electron energy 70ev, filament
emission 1mA, mass resolution 8000 to  10,000,  ion source temperature 270°C.

7.2  DIOXIN/FURAN  PRECURSORS
Feed samples for Site WRI-A were analyzed by Radian/RTP for chlorophenols
(CP), chlorobenzenes (CB) and polychlorinated  biphenyls (PCBs) by GC/MS, total
organic halides (TOX) by GC/Hall detector and  total chlorine-by Parr bomb
combustion followed by ion chromatography.  Analytical procedures are
discussed in the following sections.
7.2.1  GC/MS Analyses                        !
                                                                          i,
     The analytical procedures used for determining CP, CB,  and PCB
concentrations in feed samples are modified versions of procedures typically
used for the analysis of MM5 train components.   These procedures involve
initial  extraction of the sample with an appropriate solvent,  preliminary
separation of the compounds of interest by solvent partitioning and liquid
chromatography,  and analysis of the processed fractions.   Solutions containing
CB and PCB are injected directly into the GC/MS, and solutions containing CP
                                      7-2

-------
 are derivatized  prior  to  injection.   Details  on  the  procedures  used  for
 Site WRI-A  samples  are provided  in the  sections  below.
     7.2.1.1   Sample Preparation
     A  flow chart for  the sample preparation  procedure  used  for Site ISW-A
 feed samples  is  shown  in  Figure  7-1.  The  first  step  in the  procedure  involved
 adding  labeled surrogate  compounds to provide a  measure of extraction  method
 efficiency.   The next  step involved adding a  mixture  of 0.5  N NaOH and MeCl2
 to the  sample and sonicating the sample for 30 minutes.  The NaOH and  MeCl?
 mixture converts the acid compounds to their  salts and  collects base/neutrals
 in the  organic solvent.   The sonicated sample was filtered and  rinsed  with 0.5
 N NaOH.  The  filtrate  was extracted three  times  in a  separatory funnel  with
 MeCl2 and the aqueous  and organic fractions were saved  for derivatization
 and/or  further cleanup.   The aqueous fraction (or acids portion) was acidified
 to pH 2.0 with HC1  and then extracted three times with  MeClg.   The MeCl-.from
 this extraction  was dried with anhydrous Na2S04, exchanged to benzene,  and
 concentrated  using  a nitrogen blowdown apparatus.  Acetylation  of any  CP
 present in  the sample  involved the following  steps:
     1.   2.0 ml .isooctane, 2.0  ml acetonitrile, 50 uL  pyridine, and 20 uL
          acetic anhydride were  added to the  extract.   The test tube
          containing the  extract was placed in a 60°C water  bath for 15
          minutes and  was shaken for 30 seconds  every 2 minutes.
     2.   6.0 ml of 0.01  N H-PO.  were added to the test tube, and the  sample
          was agitated for 2 minutes on a  wrist  action  shaker.
     3.   The organic  layer was  removed and the  quantitation standard  was
          added.  The  sample was  concentrated in a Reacti-Vial  at room
          temperature  (using prepurified N,)  to  1.0 ml  prior to GC/MS
          analysis.                        *
     Cleanup  of  the organic (or  base/neutrals) layer from the first MeCK
 extraction  involved successively washing the  extract with concentrated H2S04
 and deionized distilled water.  The acid or water was added  in  a 30 ml portion
 and the sample was shaken  for two minutes.   After the aqueous (or acid) and
 organic layers were completely separated,  the aqueous (or acid)  layer was
discarded.   The acid washing procedure was  repeated until  the acid layer was
colorless.   The organic fraction from the final  wash was dried with anhydrous
                                       7-3

 Na2S04,  exchanged to hexane and concentrated.   Final  cleanup of the sample by
 column chromatography involved the following procedure.
      A glass macro-column,  20 mm o.d.  x 230 mm in length,  tapered to 6 mm o.d.
 on  one end was prepared.   The column was packed with  a plug of si 1 iconized
 glass wool,  followed successively by 1.0 g silica,  2.0 g silica containing 33%
 (w/w) 1  N  NaOH,  and 2.0 g silica.   After wetting the  chromatography column
 with  hexanes,  the concentrated extract was quantitatively  transferred to  the
 column and eluted with  90 ml hexanes.   The entire eluate was collected and
 concentrated to  a volume  of 1  ml in a  centrifuge tube.
      A disposable liquid  chromatography mini-column was  constructed by cutting
 off a 5-mL Pyrex disposable pipette at the 2.0  ml mark and  packing  the lower
 portion  of the tube with  a  small  plug  of silanized glass wool,  followed by 1  g
 of  Woehlm  basic  alumina.  The  alumina  had been  previously  activated for at
 least 16 hours at 600°C in  a muffle furnace and cooled in  a desiccator for 30
 minutes  just before use.  The  concentrated eluate from above was
 quantitatively transferred  onto  the liquid chromatography  column.   The
 centrifuge tube  was rinsed  consecutively with two 0.3-ml. portions of a 3
 percent  MeCl2: hexanes  solution,  and the rinses were  transferred  to the liquid
 chromatography column.  -
      The liquid  chromatography column  was  eluted with 20 ml of  a  50 percent
 (v/v)  MeCl2:hexanes solution,  and  the  eluate was concentrated to  a  volume  of
 approximately  1  ml  by heating  the  tubes  in a water bath  while passing  a stream
 of  prepurified NZ over  the  solutions.  The quantitation  standard was  added  and
 the final  volume was adjusted  to 1.0 ml  prior to GC/MS analysis.
      7.2.1.2   Analysis
      Analyses  for CP, CB  and PCBs  present  in the  feed sample extracts were
 performed  with a Finnigan Model 5100 mass  spectrometer using selected  ion
 monitoring.  A fused silica capillary  column was  used for chromatographic
 separation of the compounds of interest.  Analytical conditions for the GC/MS
 analysis are shown  in Table 7-1.
     Tuning of the  GC/MS was performed  daily as specified in the Tier 4 QA
 Project Plan.  An internal-standard calibration procedure was used for sample
quantitation.  Compounds of interest were calibrated against a fixed
                                     7-5

 concentration  of either d12-chrysene  (for CB,  PCB)  or  dg-naphthalene (for CP).
 Components  of  the calibration  solution  are shown  in Table  7-2.   For
 multi-point calibrations,  this solution was injected at  concentrations  of 10,
 50,  100,  and 150 ng/ml.                                  '
      Compound  identification was confirmed by  comparison of chromatographic
 retention times  and mass spectra of unknowns with retention times and mass
 spectra of  reference compounds.  Since  the selected ion  monitoring  technique
 was  necessary  for the samples  analyzed, care was taken to monitor a
 sufficiently wide mass  region  to avoid  the potential for reporting  false
 positives.
     The instrument detection  limit for the analytes of  interest (i.e., CP,
 CB,  and PCB) was  estimated to  be approximately 500  pg on column.  For a 50 g
 sample and  100 percent recovery of the  analyte, this corresponds to a feed
 sample detection  limit of 10 ppb.

 7.3  TOX ANALYSIS

     Incinerator  feed samples were analyzed for total organic halide (TOX) by
 short-column GC and a Hall  detector (GC/Hall).  Solid samples were extracted
with benzene for  at least 16 hours in a Soxhlet apparatus.   The extracts were
washed three times with 100 ml portions of reagent-grade water concentrated to
 10 ml.
     An attempt to use a fused silica capillary column to separate surrogates
 from target compounds was unsuccessful due to the complexity of the sample
 constituents.  Determinations for TOX were therefore performed on samples
without surrogates and no measure of extraction efficiency is available.
     Instrument conditions  are shown in Table 7-3.  Sample quantisation was
based on an average response factor developed from a mixture of chlorinated
benzenes and brominated biphenyls.   Individual  CP, CB,  and PCBs were also'
 injected at various concentrations  to develop a calibration curve for
comparison to the mixture response  factors.

              8.0  QUALITY ASSURANCE/QUALITY CONTROL (QA/QC)

      This  section  summarizes the results of the quality assurance and quality
 control  (QA/QC)  activities for Site WRI-A.   The flue gas  dioxin/furan data for
 this  site  were generally outside the QC  specifications  presented  in  the  Tier 4
 QAPP.  Run 05 sample was the only run having surrogate recoveries within  the
 QC  limit of 50 to  120 percent for the tetra-chlorinated homologues  and  40  to
 120 percent for  hepta- and  octa-CDD's.   The results of the analysis  of the
 fortified  laboratory QC  sample were all  within 50 percent of the true value,
 which  is within  the  Tier  4 objective of  + 50 percent.
     Analytical  recovery  efficiencies for six  isotopically-labeled  compounds
 used  as  surrogates for the target precursor analytes in  the  Site WRI-A  feed
 samples  varied considerably.  Several of the recoveries  were below the 50
 percent QA objective stated in  the  Tier  4 QAPP.  The base neutrals  portion of
 transformers  combustible  analyses were unsuccessful.
     The  following  sections  summarize  the  results of Site  WRI-A  QA/QC
 activities.   Manual  gas  sampling methods are considered  in  Section 8.1 and
 continuous  emission  monitoring  and  molecular  weight  determinations are
 considered  in Section 8.2.   The laboratory analysis QA/QC  activities  are
 summarized  in Section 8.3.

 8.1  MANUAL GAS  SAMPLING
     Manual gas  sampling methods at Site WRI-A included  Modified  Method  5
 (MM5), EPA Methods 1  through  4,  and  HC1  testing.  These methods are  discussed
 in  Section 6.0.  Quality  assurance  and quality  control  (QA/QC) activities  for
 the manual sampling methods  centered  around  (1)  equipment  calibration,
 (2) glassware precleaning,  (3)  procedural QC checks  and  (4)  sample custody
 procedures.   Key activities  and  QC results  in each of  these  areas  are
discussed  in  this  section.   Also discussed  are  problems encountered that may
have affected data quality.
8.1.1   Equipment  Calibration and Glassware Preparation
     Pre-test calibrations  or inspections were conducted on pi tot  tubes,
sampling nozzles, temperature sensors and analytical balances.  Both  pre-test
                                     8-1

-------
 and post-test calibrations were performed on the dry gas meters.   All  of the
 field test equipment met  the calibration criteria specified  in the Tier 4
 Quality Assurance  Project  Plan (QAPP).   Differences  in the  pre-test and
 post-test dry gas meter calibrations were less  than  2  percent  (%)„
      An extensive  pre-cleaning procedure was  used for  all  sample  train
 glassware and sample containers.  This cleaning procedure, which is  outlined
 in  Table 8-1,  was  implemented  to  minimize  the potential   for  sample
 contamination with  substances  that could interfere  with the  dioxin/furan
 analysis.   To minimize  the  potential for contamination  in  the field,  all
 sample train  glassware was capped with foil  prior to  use.   A sample trailer
 was maintained for the  specific purpose of sample  train  assembly and  recovery.
 8.1.2  Procedural  PC Activities/Manual Gas Sampling
      Procedural  QC activities during the  manual gas sampling for dioxin/furan
 and HC1  focused on:
                visual equipment inspections,  ;
                utilization of sample train blanks,
                ensuring the   proper locatioiii  and  number  of  traverse
                points,
                conducting  pre-test   and   post-test  sample  train  leak
                checks,
         .  -     maintaining  proper   temperatures • at  the  filter   housing,
                sorbent  trap and impinger  train,
                maintaining isokinetic sampling  rates, and                 ;
                recording all  data on Preformatted field data sheets.      !
 Unusual  circumstances noted  while  carrying out the procedural  QC  activities
 are discussed  below.  -
     The  first opportunity for a preliminary velocity  traverse was  on  the
 first test day.  The average  stack gas velocity was found to be approximately
 1.2 meter/min  (4 ft/min), which was  lower than  expected.  Using the  largest
 available MM5  nozzle size  (0.5 inch), the isokinetic gas sampling  rate was
 approximately 0.007 m3/min (0.25 cfm).  In order to maximize the amount of gas
 sampled with  this  low  sample flow rate,  the  testing  period  for Run  01 was
 increased from the  usual 4-hour length  to the maximum possible  length  under
the operating schedule constraints of. the plant.   In  addition,  only one port
                                   8-2

 was traversed for Run 01, which eliminated  the  hour or more that would have
 been necessary to change  ports with the water  cooled  probe assembly.  The
 resulting on-line test period  for Run 01 was  340 minutes  long,  and a sample
 gas volume of 2.5 dscm (89 dscf) was obtained.   While  this  sample  gas volume
 did not achieve the  usual  Tier 4 target  of  1210 dscf for an outlet location,  it
 essentially met the Site 06 test plan target  of 90 dscf.   Following  Run 01,
 larger sample nozzles  were obtained  (1.7 cm, or 0.7 inch), which allowed for a
 higher isokinetic sampling  rate (approximately  0.014  m3/min,  or 0.5 cfm).
 Test durations for Runs 02-06 ranged from 240 to 300 minutes, and  sample  gas
 collection.volumes ranged from 3.2  dscm (114 dscf) to 3.9  dscm (138 dscf).
 Port changes during  Runs 02-06 were carried out  as  originally planned (i;e.,
 one port change per  test run).                   •
      The first HC1 run also led to sampling changes for successive test runs.
 During the first HC1 run a water cooled  probe  was used, and condensed moisture
 was observed running out of the probe and into the filter assembly.  A second
 HC1  run was  performed  on the first test  day without water cooling and using a
 cyclone to  collect  any condensate prior to the  filter.   Following these
 modifications,  moisture was  still  observed  to be condensing out.in  the  probe
 and cyclone, but the situation was  improved relative to the first  HC1  run.
 One HC1 run was  performed on  each  successive test  day using  the non-water
 cooled probe and  the cyclone, which  resulted in  a total  of seven HC1  runs.
      During  the final  MM5 leak check  of Run 02, the sample train  impinger
 contents  were inadvertently transferred  back  into  the  condensate  knockout
 trap.   The XAD trap and filter were  visually inspected  and  found to be
 unaffected.   During  Run 03,  a hole occurred in the  MM5  sample train filter.
 The  hole was discovered when black  particulate was observed in  the  condenser
 coils.  A  new filter was installed,  and  the run proceeded.  Runs 04, 05, and
 06 were completed without  any significant unusual occurrences  from  a sampling
 perspective.
     As discussed earlier,  plant  personnel  reported that the  incinerator
 opacity was  higher than normal  during  Runs  01-03, particularly during Run 03
 (the first wire and transformer run).  Before  starting  Run 04  a  hole was cut
 in the atmospheric damper plate that had been  installed just prior  to  Run  01.
This hole provided additional combustion air downstream of the afterburner and
                                    8-4

-------
 resulted in  a lengthening of the  afterburner  flame.   Flames were  observed
 through the MM5 sample  port  holes  and at times out of the top of the  stack.
 Visual opacity was significantly reduced.  As a result,"the hole was left open
 during Runs 04 through  06 and the testing was  completed without any  known
 problems.
      Results of the average isokinetics calculations for the six MM5 test runs
 are shown in Table 8-2.   The  average  isokinetics  for  Runs 01-04 exceeded the
 quality assurance (QA) objective of 100 + 10 percent,  but Run 01 was the only
 test for which  the exceedance was significant (120.5%  isokinetics).   The
 average isokinetics for Runs 05 and 06 were within the QA objective.  Based on
 the magnitude of the  isokinetics values  and  the high  stack gas  temperatures
 measured, it is felt that the QA exceedances  of isokinetics for Runs 01-04 did
 not significantly affect the quality of the data.
      The two main reasons for the  difficulty in achieving the QA isokinetics
 objective at  Site WRI-A were the  variability  of  stack gas  flow rate  and
 temperature during  the  test  runs.   An  inclined  manometer  graduated  in
.0.01 inch increments was  used to determine the pitot  readings, which  ranged
 from 0.01 to 0.02 inches of water.   At a typical stack temperature of  1300°F,
 this corresponds to  a 40 percent  variation  in stack  gas  velocity.   Stack
 temperatures also showed a high degree  of variability,  with the maximum
 within-run  deviation being about 220°C (400°F).
      A field  blank  sample train was  used at  the  MM5 sample location  to
 determine the background  levels  of contaminants that  might  interfere with
 dioxin and  furan analysis.  The glassware in the  field blank train  had been
 used in a previous  test run at Site WRI-A and cleaned  up  according to  the ASME
 protocol.   The field  blank train  was transported  to  and assembled at  the
 sample location.   Recovery was performed  in  the same sequence as for a normal
 test run.   All solvents  used  in  the recovery of blanks came  from  the same
 containers  as  for  normal test runs.  The field blank sample train components
 were submitted to Troika for  dioxin analysis.   A proof train blank consisting
 of MM5  sample  train  recovery  components from a  train that  had  not been  used in
 a  previous  test run at  Site  WRI-A  was also  submitted  to  Troika  for dioxin
 analysis.

      Initial, final, and port change leak checks  for  the MM5 and HC1 sample
 trains achieved the QA  objectives for all  of  the test runs.  None  of  the
 reported sample volumes required  correction  for sample train leakage.   All
 leak check data are noted  on the MM5 field data sheets.
 8.1.3  Sample Custody
      Sample custody procedures  used  during  this program emphasized  careful
 documentation of the samples collected  and the  use of  chain-of-custody records
 for samples  transported to  the laboratory  for analysis.  Steps  taken  to
 identify and document  samples collected included labeling each sample with a
 unique alphanumeric code and logging the  sample in a master logbook.   All
 samples  shipped to  Troika  or returned to Radian/RTP  were also  logged  on
 chain-of-custody records that.were signed  by the field sample custodian  upon
 shipment and  also  signed  upon  receipt at the laboratory.  Each  sample
 container lid was  individually sealed to ensure that samples  were not tampered
 with.   No evidence  of  loss  of  sample  integrity was reported for  samples
 collected at this  site.  However,  minor leakages were reported by Troika  for a
 few of the sample  bottles.

 8.2  CONTINUOUS  MONITORING/MOLECULAR WEIGHT DETERMINATION
      Flue gas parameters measured continuously at  the  afterburner outlet
 location during  Runs 01-05 included  CO, C02,  02,  total  hydrocarbons (THC) and
 NOX.   During Run 06, THC was the only continuously monitored  parameter due to
 a malfunction in the sample gas conditioner.  The  concentrations of  02,  CO,
 C02,  and nitrogen  (N2) were  also determined for integrated  bag samples of the
 flue  gas.   Quality control  results for these analyses are discussed  in  this
 section.
      Drift  check results for the continuously monitored flue gas  parameters
 are  summarized in Table 8-3.  Data  reduction was  performed  by  assuming a
 linear drift of the instrument  response over the test day based  on  drift
 checks at  the beginning  and  end  of the day.   The largest calibration drifts
were  observed for the  NOX  analyzer, which  exceeded QC  target  goals of
+10 percent drift for 3 test runs.  The smallest instrument drift was  observed-
for the oxygen monitor.  A power source disruption  occurred on 3/25/85  after
the completion of Run 05 but  before the completion  of  the final  calibrations
                                   8-7

 for that day.   THC was the only  gas  for which final calibrations  had  been
 completed.  As  a  result,  drift check data for 02, CO,  C02,  and NO  are not
 'available for Run 05.
      The quality  control  gases  for this  program consisted  of mid-range
 concentration standards different than those used for instrument  calibration.
 The QC gases were analyzed  immediately after calibration  each day to provide
 data on day-to-day  instrument  variability.   The acceptance criteria for the
 analysis of each QC standard was agreement within + 10 percent  of the running
 mean value.  This criteria  was met  for each of the monitored gases  on  each
 test day for which continuous  monitoring  was performed.                   :
      Continuous monitoring data for 02,  CO,  C02,  and NOX were  not  obtained
 during Run 06 because  the sample gas  conditioner had become blocked with
 hydrocarbon  residue deposited during   Runs 01-05.   As  discussed  in
 Section 6.1.2.6, these instruments  require  a dry gas stream for analysis.
 Continuous  monitoring data for THC were still  collected  during Run 06 because
 this instrument operates  with  a  wet gas  stream with  no need for  the gas
 conditioner.   Integrated  bag   samples  analyzed  using  the  Shimadzu  gas
 chromatograph were used to develop mean concentration  data for 02, CO, and  C02
 during Run 06.   The  bag  samples  were  taken during  consecutive 30 minute
 intervals.   Quality control  for the  bag  sample analysis involved duplicate
 analyses  of calibration gases  immediately before  and  after  sample analysis.
 Analysis  of the  calibration  gases  was  repeated  until  two consecutive analyses
 within +  5  percent were obtained.   This same criteria of + 5  percent applied
 to duplicate  analyses' required  for sample quantification.  These criteria were
 met  for all  molecular weight determinations.  The continuously monitored THC
 data were then   averaged over  the  time period that coincided with the bag
 samples (30  minute periods)  to provide mean THC concentration values  at  the
 coincidental  02, CO  and C02  data points.
     For  Runs 01-05  the flue gas molecular  weight was calculated using the
 average 02  and   C02  values as  determined  by the continuous  monitors.  The
 continuous monitoring data were used instead of the integrated bag sample data
 generated using  the  gas chromatograph because the CEM data  were considered
more reliable for  this  test  site.   For Run 06 the flue gas molecular weight
was  calculated  using the bag  sample  data because there were no CEM data
available for that run.

8.3  LABORATORY ANALYSES
     QA/QC activities were carried out for dioxin/furan, precursor, and total
chloride analyses performed on Site WRI-A samples.  The dioxin/furan analyses
of MM5 train samples performed by Troika are considered in Section 8.3.1; the
precursor analyses  of  wire recovery incinerator  feed  samples performed by
Radtan/RTP are considered  in  Section 8.3.2;  and the total chloride analyses
of  HC1   train  samples  performed  by  Radian/Austin  are  considered  in
Section 8.3.3.

8.3.1  Dioxin/Furan Analyses
     Two individual topics related to the dioxin/furan analyses at Site WRI-A
are discussed  in  this  section.   Analytical  recoveries of  labeled  surrogate
compounds spiked  onto  MM5 train samples  are  reported in  Section  8.3.1.1.
Sample blank data are reported in Section 8.3.1.2.
     8.3.1.1  Surrogate Recoveries of Test Samples
     Table 8-4 presents the  analytical  recovery data reported by Troika for
four isotopically  labeled, surrogate compounds  spiked onto  the  MM5 train
samples.  Samples  from Runs 03  and 06,  which were  the  first MM5 samples
analyzed, were  analyzed  in three  separate  parts.  Part A was the liquid
portion from the MM5 sample train, while part B was particulate recovered from
the liquid portion.  Part  C was  the XAD-2 and  particulate filter sample.   In
general, surrogate recoveries for MM5 samples from Site WRI-A were outside the
Tier 4  target ranges  of  50-120  percent for the tetra-chlorinated  homologues
and 40-120  percent  for the hepta- and  octa-chlorinated  homologues.   Run 05
(wire and  transformer feed)  was the  only test run for  which analytical
recoveries for all surrogates were within the Tier 4 target ranges.
     Surrogate recoveries  could  not be  determined or were  outside  of the
Tier 4 quality assurance ranges  for the MM5 samples because  of the relatively
large quantities of native COD and CDF species  present in  the samples.   Since
no measure  of  extraction  method  efficiency  is available for  all  of  the MM5
samples, it should  be  noted  that the  reported analytical  results  for  native
compounds may actually represent lower bounds on the true values.
     8.3.1.2  Sample Blanks
     Table 8-5  summarizes the analytical  results reported  by Troika  for
internal laboratory blanks, laboratory fortified quality control  (QC) samples,

and field recovery  blank  MM5  train  samples.   Samples  from all  test runs were
not analyzed  at'the  same time.  Therefore  there  were different  internal
laboratory blank and  laboratory fortified  QC samples  for  Runs  03 and 06 than
for Runs 01,  02,  03 and  04.   In general,  the surrogate recoveries  for  the
blank samples were within acceptable limits with values ranging from 46 to 106
percent.  Comparison  of the measured and  spiked  values for the  laboratory
fortified QC  samples  showed agreement  to within + 50 percent for  all  target
species except  the hexa-CDD  isomer.  The  measured value  for  the hexa-CDD
isomer was approximately  56 percent lower than the spiked value.
     Small but detectable quantities of  several dioxin  and  furan  species were
found in the  field blank MM5  train.   Table  61-6 gives  a  comparison  of the
dioxin/furan analytical results  for the field blank MM5 train and the test run
MM5 trains.  The only species which showed any  sign of  a  blanking  problem!was
"other TCDD"  where  the  blank was 22 percent of the minimum test run value..
Most field blank values were less than one  percent of  the minimum test run
value.  Overall, the  field  clean-up procedures  were  found to be adequate for
this test site. Emissions.data reported in Section 5.4 are not blank-corrected.
8.3.2  Precursor Analyses                                                 I
     Table 8-7 presents analytical recovery  efficiencies for six  isotopically
labeled compounds used  as surrogates for the target precursor analytes  in the
Site WRI-A feed samples.  Several of the recoveries  are below  the 50 percent
objective stated in the Tier  4  QA Project  Plan  and are below those generally
considered achievable when  analyzing.for similar compounds  in water  or  in MM5
train components.  Recoveries of d^-dichlorobenzene, bromobiphenyl, and 2', 5,
5'tetra bromobiphenyl for the transformer combustible samples were negligible.
This indicates that the base-neutrals portion of the  transformer  combustibles
analyses was  unsuccessful.   Thus,   it   can  be  concluded  that  neither  '
chlorobenzenes or PCB's were successfully analyzed for in these samples.
8.3.3  Total  Chloride Analysis                                            '.
     Total  chloride analyses were performed  by  Radian/Austin on  the  HC1  train
samples.  QA/QC activities  include  total chloride  analysis of field recovery
blank HC1  train samples and total chloride analysis-of  an  aliquot  of the NaOH
solution used in the  sample train impingers.   Chlorides were detected in the
field recovery  blank  sample trains.  The front-half  of the train contained
                                   8-14

16. ABSTRACT
  This report summarizes  the  results of a dioxin/furan emissions  test of a wire reclama-
  tion incinerator equipped with an afterburner for hydrocarbon  emissions" control.  The
  wire reclamation incinerator  is used for recovery of copper from coated copper wire anc
  drained transformer cores.  The test was the sixth, in a 'series  of  several dioxin/furan
  emissions tests  conducted  under Tier  4 of  the National Dioxin  Study.  The primary
  objective of Tier 4 is  to determine if various combustion sources are sources of dioxin
  and/or furan emissions.   If any of the  combustion  sources are  found to emit dioxin or
  furan, the secondary objective of Tier 4 is to quantify these emissions.

  Wire reclamation incinerators are one of 8 combustion source categories that have been
  tested in the Tier 4 program.  The tested incinera.tor, hereafter referred to as incin-
  erator WRI-A, was  selected for this  test after an initial information screening and a
  one-day pretest  survey visit.   Incinerator WRI-A is  considered representative, of the
  wire reclamation incinerator  population in the United States.

  Data presented in the report  include dioxin (tetra through octa homologue + 2378 TCDD)
  and furan (tetra through  octa homologue + 2378 TCDF)  results  for both stack samples and
  ash samples.  In  addition,  process data collected during sampling  are also presented
17.
