SECTION 1
PURPOSE OF DOCUMENT
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and State and local air pollution control
agencies are becoming increasingly aware of the presence of substances in the ambient air
that may be toxic at certain concentrations. This awareness, in turn, has led to attempts to
identify source/receptor relationships for these substances and to develop control programs to
regulate emissions. Unfortunately, very little information is available on the ambient air
concentrations of these substances or on the sources that may be discharging them to the
atmosphere.
To assist groups interested in inventorying air emissions of various potentially toxic
substances, EPA is preparing a series of documents such as this that compiles available
information on sources and emissions of these substances. This document deals specifically
with medical waste incinerators (MWI). Its intended audience includes Federal, State and
local air pollution personnel and others who are interested in locating medical waste
incinerators and making gross estimates of air emissions therefrom.
Because of the limited amounts of data available on medical waste incinerator
emissions, and since the configurations of an incinerator may not be the same as those
described here, this document is best used as a primer to inform air pollution personnel about
(1) the types of medical waste incinerators, (2) the types of emission control systems used
with medical waste incinerators, and (3) available information indicating the potential for
emissions to be released into the air from medical waste incinerators.
The reader is strongly cautioned against using the emissions information contained in
this document to try to develop an exact assessment of emissions from any particular facility.
1-1
-------
Because insufficient data are available to develop statistical estimates of the accuracy of these
emission factors, no estimate can be made of the error that could result when these factors
are used to calculate emissions from any given facility. It is possible, in some extreme
cases, that order-of-magnitude differences could result between actual and calculated
emissions, depending on differences in incinerator design, waste composition, control
equipment, and operating practices. Thus, in situations where an accurate assessment of
medical waste incinerator emissions is necessary, source-specific information should be
obtained to confirm the existence of incinerator operations, the types and effectiveness of
control measures, and the impact of operating practices. A source test should be considered
as the best means to determine air emissions directly from an operation.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The primary purposes for medical waste incinerators are to (1) render the waste
innocuous, (2) reduce the volume and mass of the waste, and (3) provide waste-to-energy
conversion. These objectives are accomplished by exposing the waste to high temperatures
over a sufficiently long period of time to destroy threatening organisms and burn the
combustible portion of the waste. The disadvantages of incineration include the necessity of
ash disposal and the potential for air emissions of toxic pollutants.
The design of a medical waste incinerator, like that of any combustor, must account
for a number of interrelated factors, including residence time, temperature, and air/gas
mixing. Other factors which can influence combustion performance are fuel feeding
patterns, air supply and distribution, heat transfer, and ash withdrawal. Like municipal solid
waste (MSW), medical waste is more difficult to burn than conventional fuel such as oil, gas,
or coal because its composition is highly variable.
Medical waste also has a variable ash content. Due to the high moisture content, the
waste can have a relatively low heating value, although higher than municipal solid waste.
Corrosion can also be a problem with medical waste flue gases, due to the presence of
fluorine and chlorine, principally from plastic materials in the waste. The composition of
medical wastes is typically 65% paper, 30% plastic, 10% moisture, and 5% other
components, though this composition can be highly variable1.
Section 3 provides background information on the current status of medical waste
incineration. In subsection 3.1, the medical waste incineration industry is briefly
3-1
-------
overviewed. Incinerator and emission controls are described in detail in subsections 3.2 and
3.3, respectively.
3.1 CHARACTERIZATION OF THE INDUSTRY
There are three basic types of medical waste incinerators: (1) controlled air, (2)
excess air, and (3) rotary kiln. Types of facilities where medical waste incinerators are used
include hospitals, veterinary facilities, crematories, and research facilities.
The total number and capacity of medical waste incinerators in the United States is
uncertain. A major segment of the population consists of incinerators operating in hospitals.
As of 1985 there were a reported 6,872 hospitals in the nation with 1,318,000 beds.2
Representatives of incinerator manufacturers estimate that over 90 percent of operating
hospitals have some type of incinerator on-site, if only a small retort-type for special or
pathological wastes.3 The number of larger, controlled-air hospital waste incinerators is not
known. Based on discussions with two of the leading controlled-air incinerator
manufacturers, it is estimated that at least 1,200 of these systems have been installed at U.S.
hospitals over the past 20 years.4-5
Estimates of waste generation rates at hospitals range from about 8 to 45
Ib/bed/day.6'7-8 Using an average generation rate of 23 Ib/bed/day and an average occupancy
rate of 69 percent, the total hospital waste generation rate is estimated to be about 10,500
tons/day. To estimate actual incinerator tonnage, this rate would need to be reduced by the
amount of infectious waste handled by other treatment processes and the amount of general
waste that is segregated and sent via trash disposal to landfills. Unfortunately, it is not
possible to estimate these quantities based on the information gathered to date.
A partial list of approximately 2,500 medical waste incinerators is presented in
Appendix A. Beyond the population of hospital waste incinerators discussed above, this list
contains many non-hospital incinerators which burn medical or pathological waste (e.g.,
veterinarians, crematories, research facilities, etc.) This list was generated using a previous
3-2
-------
partial list, and through contacting State agencies. This table is sorted by state and city, and
includes the facility name, city, state, size, manufacturer, and type of air pollution control
device.
Of the incinerators identified in this study, the majority (>95 percent) are controlled
air units. A small percentage (< 2 percent) were identified as excess air. Less than 1
percent were identified as rotary kiln. The rotary kiln units tended to be larger, and
typically were equipped with an air pollution control device. Approximately 2 percent of the
total population identified in this study were found to be equipped with air pollution control
devices.
3.2 OVERVIEW OF INCINERATOR TYPES
The following is a brief overview of the major incinerator types including: controlled
air, excess air, and rotary kiln.
3.2.1 Controlled Air Incinerators
Controlled-air incineration has become the most widely used medical waste incinerator
technology in recent years, and now dominates the market for new systems at hospitals and
similar medical facilities. This technology is also known as starved-air incineration, two-
stage incineration, and modular combustion. Figure 3-1 presents a schematic diagram of a
controlled air unit. While there are some similarities in operating principles between excess
air and controlled air incinerators, overall equipment design and appearance are quite
different.
Like excess air incinerators, combustion of waste in controlled air incinerators occurs
in two stages. Waste is fed into the primary, or lower, combustion chamber, which is
operated, as the name implies, with less than the stoichiometric amount of air required for
combustion. Depending on the heating value and moisture content of the waste, additional
heat may be provided by auxiliary burners located at the entrance to the secondary (upper)

chamber to maintain desired temperatures. Combustion air enters the first chamber from
beneath the incinerator hearth (below the burning bed of waste). This air is called primary
or underfire air.
In the primary (air-starved) chamber, the air-to-fuel ratio is low (sub-stoichiometric)
so that the waste dries and volatizes, and fixed carbon burns. As a result, temperatures are
relatively low (1,400 to 1,800°F). In the second chamber, excess air is added to burn the
volatiles. Also, a secondary burner may be operated. As a result, temperatures are
higher than in the first chamber - typically 1,800 to 2,000° F.
Because of the low air addition rates in the primary chamber and corresponding
low flue gas velocities and turbulence levels, the amount of solids entrained in the gases
leaving the primary chamber is minimized. As a result, controlled air incinerators can
meet many current state and local particulate matter emission limits without add-on gas
cleaning devices.
Waste feed capacities for controlled air incinerators range from about 75 to 6500
Ib/hr (at 8500 Btu/lb). Waste feed and ash removal can be manual or automatic,
depending on the unit size and options purchased. Capacities for lower heating value
wastes may be higher, since feed capacities are limited by primary chamber heat release
rates. Heat release rates for controlled air incinerators typically range from about 15,000
to 25,000 Bru/hr-ff.
Optimization of controlled air incinerators includes thorough mixing in the
secondary chamber and prolonging residence time for complete combustion of the
wastes.
3.2.2 Excess Air Incinerators
Excess air incinerators are typically small modular units. They are also referred
to as batch incinerators, multiple chamber incinerators, or "retort" incinerators in the
3-5
-------
literature. The excess air incinerator typically appears as a compact cube from the
outside with a series of chambers and baffles on the inside. Although they can be
operated continuously, they are usually operated in a batch mode (hence one common
name for this type).
Figure 3-2 presents a schematic for an excess air unit. Waste is manually fed into
the combustion chamber. The charging door is then closed, and an afterburner is ignited
to bring the secondary chamber to a target temperature (typically 1600 to 1800° F).
When the target temperature is reached, the primary chamber burner ignites.
Combustion of the waste begins in the primary, or combustion chamber. The waste is
dried, ignited, and combusted by heat provided by the primary chamber burner, as well
as by radiant heat from the chamber walls. Moisture and volatile components in the
waste are vaporized, and pass (along with combustion gases) out of the primary chamber
and through a flame port which connects the primary chamber to the secondary, or
mixing chamber. Secondary air is added through the flame port and is mixed with the
volatile components in the secondary chamber. Burners are also fitted to the secondary
chamber to maintain adequate temperatures for combustion of volatile gases. Gases
exiting the secondary chamber are directed to the incinerator stack or to an air pollution-
control device. When the waste is consumed, the primary burner shuts off. Typically,
the afterburner shuts off after a set time. Once the chamber cools, ash is manually
removed from the primary chamber floor and a new charge of waste can be added.
Incinerators designed to burn general hospital waste operate at total excess air
levels of up to 300 percent. If only pathological wastes (i.e., animal and human remains)
are combusted, excess air levels near 100 percent are more common. The lower excess
air helps maintain chamber temperature when burning high moisture waste.
Optimization of excess air incinerators involves maintaining high temperatures with
afterburners and prolonging residence times.

3.2.3 Rotary Kiln Incinerators
Rotary kiln incinerators (shown in Figure 3-3) are similar in some respects to
controlled-air incinerators. They are designed with a primary chamber, where the waste
is heated and volatized, and a secondary chamber, where combustion of the volatile
fraction is completed. The primary chamber consists of a horizontal, rotating kiln. The
kirn is slightly inclined so that the waste material migrates from the feed end to the ash
discharge end as the kiln rotates. The waste-migration, or throughput, rate is controlled
by the rate of rotation and the angle of inclination of the kiln. Combustion air enters
the primary chamber through a port. An auxiliary burner is generally used to start
combustion and maintain desired combustion temperatures. Both the primary and
secondary chambers are usually lined with acid-resistant refractory brick.
Volatiles and combustion gases pass from the primary chamber to the secondary
chamber. The secondary chamber is operated under excess-air conditions, and high
temperatures (up to 2400° F) are maintained by a secondary burner. Combustion of the
volatiles is completed in the secondary chamber. Due to the turbulent motion of the
waste in the primary chamber, solids burnout rates and particulate entrainment in the
flue gas is higher for kiln incinerators than for controlled-air or excess-air incinerators.
3.3 EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS
The pollutants emitted from medical waste incineration that are of concern are:
• particulate matter
acid gases (HC1, HF, SOj, and NOJ
• trace chlorinated organics (dioxins and furans), other low molecular weight
organics, and carbon monoxide
• heavy metals such as antimony, arsenic, barium, cadmium, chromium, iron,
lead, manganese, mercury, nickel, and silver
• other wastes (cytotoxic agents, radioactive species, pathogens, and bacteria)

The following section discusses the factors affecting the emission of these pollutants and
methods used to control air emission from medical waste incinerators.
3.3.1 Particulate Matter Control Technologies
Particulate matter (PM) is emitted as a result of incomplete combustion and by
the entrainment of noncombustible ash hi the flue gas stream. PM may exit as a solid or
an aerosol, and may contain heavy metals, acids, or trace organics. Depending on the
method used to measure the PM in the flue gas, lower boiling point volatile compounds
(i.e., boiling point below 212°F) may or may not be included in the measurement.
Inorganic matter is not destroyed during combustion; most of this material leaves the
incinerator a bottom ash. Some, however, becomes entrained in the stack gas as PM.
In general, good combustion conditions, which depend on residence time,
temperature, and turbulence (good air/fuel mixing), minimise PM emissions. As the
residence time increases, particle size and the mass of the PM tend to decrease.9
Smaller particle sizes and lower PM emissions are also associatec! with higher
temperatures. Oxidation rates increase at higher temperatures, so more of the
combustible PM is oxidized to gaseous products.
Entrainment of PM into the incinerator exhaust is often a reflection of the
relative gas velocity within the combustion chambers. Controlled air incinerators have
the lowest turbulence and, consequently, lowest PM emissions; rotary kilns have high
turbulence combustion, and, therefore, the highest PM emissions. Although total
particulate emission levels from medical waste incinerators are lower than in municipal
waste combustion, the particle size range is lower and in the inhalable (< 10 micrometer)
range so that up to 80 percent of total particulate is fine particles.9
The most frequently used PM control devices are fabric filters and electrostatic
precipitators. Therefore, the following discussion focuses on fabric filters and ESP's.
3-10
-------
A fabric filtration system (baghouse) consists of a number of filtering elements
(bags) along with a bag cleaning system contained in a main shell structure with dust
hoppers. Particulate-laden gases are passed through the bags so that the particles are
retained on the upstream side of the fabric, thus cleaning the gas. A baghouse is
typically divided into several compartments or sections. Figure 3-4 illustrates a typical
pulse jet fabric filter system. In fabric filtration, both the collection efficiency and the
pressure drop across the bag surface increases as the dust layer on the bag builds up.
Since the system cannot continue to operate with an increasing pressure drop, the bags
are cleaned periodically. The cleaning processes used ordinarily consist of reverse flow
with bag collapse, pulse jet cleaning, or mechanical shaking. When reverse flow and
mechanical shaking are used, the PM is collected on the inside of the bag; PM is
collected on the outside of the bag in pulse jet systems. Generally, reverse flow fabric
filters operate with lower gas flow per unit area of bag surface than pulse jet systems
and, thus, are larger and more costly for a given gas flow-rate or application.
Fabric filters can achieve very high (> 99.9 percent) PM removal efficiencies.
These systems are also very effective in controlling fine (<2 micrometers) PM, which
implies good control of condensed metals and organics.
A disadvantage in using fabric filters with medical waste incinerators is the
operating temperature limitation. The upper limit of most widely used filter media is
about 500° F. Flue gases leave the incinerator at about 1,500-2,000° F. Thus, the gases
must be cooled below 500° F before contact with the filter bags. However, the dew point
of the flue gas must also be considered. Temperature excursions below the acid dew
point (around 230° F) can ruin the bags and require premature replacement.
Paniculate collection in an ESP occurs in three steps: (1) suspended particles are
given an electrical charge; (2) the charged particles migrate to a collecting electrode of
opposite polarity while subjected to a diverging electric field; and (3) the collected PM is
dislodged from the collecting electrodes and collected in hoppers for disposal.
Figure 3-5 illustrates a typical precipitator cross-section.

Charging of the particles to be collected is usually caused by ions produced in
high voltage d-c corona. The electric fields and the corona necessary for particle
charging are provided by A-C sources using high voltage transformers and rectifiers.
Removal of the collected particulate matter is accomplished mechanically by rapping or
vibrating the collecting electrode plates.
3.3.2 Acid Gas Control Technologies
Combustion of medical wastes can produce acid gas emissions in the form of HC1,
SQ, and NQ. The following discusses the issues related to the formation of these
chemicals. Acid gas control is achieved by neutralization of the acid and/or collection of
the acid constituents in dry sorbents or aqueous solutions.
Chlorine, which is chemically bound within the medical waste in the form of
polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or other compounds, will be predominately converted to
hydrogen chloride (HC1). This results from the high hydrogen content of hospital waste
due to its high paper, plastics, and moisture content. Swedish studies have found that 60
to 65 percent of the fuel-bound chlorine in municipal solid waste (MSW) is converted to
HC1 for an HC1 range of 0.6-16 mg/kg waste.9 There appears to be no known
thennodynamic reason for the less than 100 percent conversion of chlorine FIG.
Some chlorine will be neutralized by alkaline species in the ash and some may react with
precursors to form chlorinated dioxins and furans. Uncontrolled HC1 emissions are
estimate to be on the order of 1000 ppm or less.11 HC1 control is achieved with aqueous
and solid sorbent systems. Wet scrubbers usually operate with an HC1 control efficiency
greater than 99 percent.11
Sulfur, which is chemically bound within the materials making up the medical
waste, is oxidized during the combustion process to form SO^. Medical waste, like
municipal waste, typically contains about 0.2 percent sulfur.11 The rate of SOj emissions
is directly proportional to the sulfur content of the waste. Some SOj removal may take
place through reaction of the SQ with alkaline materials also present within the waste;
3-14
-------
however, this amount of removal is expected to be negligible. Uncontrolled SQ,
emissions are estimated to be on the order of 100 ppm or less.11 Sulfur dioxide control is
achieved with wet (aqueous)' or dry sorbent systems.
Nitrogen oxides, or NOX, represent a mixture mainly of NO and NQ. However,
in combustion systems, NO is predominantly produced due to kinetic limitations in the
oxidation of NO to NOj. NOX is formed by one of two general mechanisms. "Thermal
NOX" is the result of the high-temperature reaction between molecular nitrogen and
molecular oxygen, both of which enter the combustion zone in the combustion air. "Fuel
NOX" results from the oxidation of monatomic nitrogen which enters the combustion
zone chemically bound within the fuel structure.
Maximum NO, generation occurs at slightly fuel-lean air/fuel mixture ratios
because of the excess oxygen available for reaction within the hot flame zone. A rapid
decrease in NOX formation is seen for ratios which are slightly higher or lower than this.
The rate of thermal NOX formation is extremely sensitive to the flame temperature.
Fuel-bound nitrogen compounds react to form NO, in two separate mechanisms:
a solid-phase char nitrogen reaction (in solid fuels) and a homogeneous gas-phase
reaction resulting from evolution and cracking of volatile compounds (in solid and liquid
fuels). Data collected from incinerators indicate that char nitrogen conversion to NOX is
dependent on flame temperature, air/fuel ratio, and char characteristics.9
Thermal NO, formation is extremely sensitive to temperature whereas fuel NOX
formation is not. The data also suggest that: (1) fuel nitrogen could be a significant
source of NO, and (2) the local conditions under which NOX is formed are not
characterized by uniform adiabatic temperatures. At the lower adiabatic temperatures
which characterize medical waste incinerators, fuel nitrogen accounts for about 100 ppm
NO, for fuels containing 0.5 percent nitrogen, while thermal NOX contributes about 10
ppm or less. Therefore, higher NO, concentrations would be indicative of higher fuel
3-15
-------
nitrogen contents and/or high adiabatic mixing temperatures. Incinerator data indicate
that NO, levels are on the order of 200 ppm.11
The two most frequently used acid gas control technologies are wet scrubbers and
dry sorbent injection. A description of each of the technologies is provided in this
section.
Wet scrubbers use gas-liquid absorption to effect transfer of pollutants from a gas
to a liquid stream. Scrubber design and the type of liquid solution used largely
determine contaminant removal efficiencies. With plain water, removal efficiencies for
acid gases could be as high as 70 percent for HC1 and 30 percer >r SOj. Addition of
an alkaline reagent to the scrubber liquor for acid neutralization aas been shown to
result in removal efficiencies of 93-96 percent.9 In general, high gas-side pressure drops
accompany high removal efficiencies for PM control with venturi wet scrubbers.
There are three basic types of wet scrubbers:
1. low energy (spray tower) primarily for acid gas control,
2= medium energy (impingement scrubbers such as packed column, baffle
plate, and liquid impingement) for PM and/or acid gas control, and
3. high energy (venturi) primarily for PM control.
Low energy scrubbers (spray towers) are usually circular in cross-section. The
liquid is sprayed down the tower as the gases rise. Acid gases are absorbed/neutralized
by the scrubbing liquid. Large particles are removed by impingement on the liquor pool,
and finer particles are removed as the flue gas rises through the tower. Low energy
scrubbers mainly remove particles larger than 5-10 micrometers.9
Medium energy devices mostly rely on impingement to facilitate removal of PM.
This can be accomplished through a variety of configurations, such as packed columns,
3-16
-------
baffle plates, and liquid impingement scrubbers. Characteristics of some common
low/medium energy scrubbers are listed in Table 3-1.
High energy scrubbers utilize Venturis for PM removal. The flue gases impinge
on the liquid stream in the converging section. As the gases pass through the throat, the
shearing action atomizes the liquid into fine droplets. When the gases pass through the
diverging section, they decelerate, resulting in further contact between particles and
liquid droplets. The droplets are then removed from the device by centrifugal action in
the de-entrainment section.9
When simultaneous acid gas and PM removal are necessary, a combination of
scrubber types is often used. Venturi scrubbers followed by low or medium energy acid
gas scrubbers are commonly applied. The venturi accomplishes primarily PM control,
while the low/medium energy scrubber uses an alkaline liquor and functions mainly to
absorb acid gases. Figure 3-6 illustrates a wet scrubber system supplied by AirPol, Inc.,
and Andersen 2000.11
Dry sorbent injection (DSI) is another method for controlling acid gases. Fabric
filters and ESPs are applied downstream of DSI to (1) control the particulate matter
(PM) generated by the incinerator, (2) capture the DSI reaction products and unreacted
sorbent, and (3) increase sorbent/acid gas contact time, thus enhancing acid gas removal
efficiency and sorbent utilization. Fabric filters are more commonly used with DSI than
ESPs because they provide for greater sorbent/acid gas contact. Fabric filters are also
less sensitive to PM loading changes or combustion upsets than ESP's, since the former
operate with essentially constant efficiency.
In the DSI process, a dry alkaline material is injected into the flue gas into a dry
venturi within the ducting or into the duct ahead of a particulate control device. The
alkaline material reacts with the HC1 and SQ in the flue gas, and the solids and fly ash
are collected for disposal. The neutralization reactions for the commonly used calcium
hydroxide and sodium hydroxide compounds are:

DSI technologies have been developed primarily to control acid gas (SQ, and HC1)
emissions. However, when combined with flue gas cooling to increase condensation of
pollutants followed by either a fabric filter or ESP, sorbent injection processes also
control PCDD/PCDF and heavy metals.
Figure 3-7 illustrates a DSI system. The dashed line in Figure 3-7 represents the
DSI process now used in some medical waste incinerators. Water or other means is used
to reduce the flue gas temperature to the 300-400° F range. Typically, calcium hydroxide
[hydrated lime, CaCOH^] is injected into the gas and the sorbent/acid gas reaction
occurs in the duct as the gas travels to the particulate collector. However, most of the
acid neutralization reactions probably occur in the PM control device, which is frequently
a fabric filter. Because calcium chloride (CaCl2) has a high affinity for water
(deliquescent), the approach-to-saturation temperature in waste incinerator applications
*
is much greater than in fossil-fuel furnace/boiler practice. Thus, higher sorbent- to-acid
gas ratios are needed for high acid gas control efficiencies. With calcium/flyash mixture,
wetting of the filter cake may cause hard, cementitious deposits on the bags resulting in
impairment of filtration and gas flow.
The solid lines in Figure 3-7 represent a fluid bed reactor, which provides greater
sorbent/acid gas contact time. This system may also use a quench reactor to reduce
flue gas temperatures (and achieve approach-to-saturation temperatures near those
characteristic of spray dryer absorbers). Solids could also be recycled from the PM
collector to increase sorbent utilization. When lime (CaO) is used as the sorbent, the
increased residence time afforded by the fluid bed reactor compensates for the lower
reactivity of the lime relative to calcium hydroxide, sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO,), or
other more reactive sorbents. Therefore, in comparing the more simple DSI system
versus the fluid bed system, tradeoffs involving capital and operating costs and removal

efficiencies (for acid gas and other pollutants) should be considered.
The major factors affecting DSI performance are flue gas temperature, acid gas
dew point, and sorbent-to-acid gas ratio. DSI performance improves as the difference
between flue gas and acid dew point temperatures decreases and the sorbent-to-acid gas
ratio increases. Flue gas temperatures at the point of sorbent injection range from
280° F to 610° F, depending on the sorbent used and the design of the process. Acid gas
removal efficiency with DSI also depends on sorbent type, sorbent feed rate, and the
extent of sorbent mixing with the flue gas. Sorbents that have been successfully tested
include hydrated lime (Ca^H^), sodium hydroxide (NaOH), and sodium bicarbonate
(NaHCOj). Based on published data for hydrated lime, DSI can achieve relatively high
removals of HC1 (80 to 90 percent) and SQ (40 to 70 percent) under proper operating
conditions. Limestone (CaCO,) and lime (CaO) have also been tested but are relatively
, unreactive at the above temperatures.14
The primary advantage of DSI compared to wet scrubbers is the relative simplicity
of the sorbent preparation, handling, and injection systems as well as the easier handling
and disposal of dry solid process wastes. The primary disadvantage is its lower sorbent
utilization rate and correspondingly higher sorbent and waste disposal rate.
A potential disadvantage of ESPs used in conjunction with DSI is that the sorbent
increases the electrical resistivity of the PM being collected. This phenomenon makes
the PM more difficult to charge and, therefore,' to collect. High resistivity can be
compensated for by flue gas conditioning or by increasing the plate area and size of the
ESP.
3.3.3 Products of Incomplete Combustion (PIO
Failure to achieve the conditions which lead to complete combustion can result in
emission of combustion products in an unreacted or partially reacted state. These PICs
can include classes of compounds ranging from low molecular weight hydrocarbons and
3-22
-------
chlorinated hydrocarbons to high molecular weight chlorinated dibenzo-dioxins, furans,
and polycyclic organic material.
Many factors are believed to be involved in the formation of polychlorinated
dibenzo-p-dioxin (PCDD) and polychlorinated dibenzofuran (PCDF) compounds, and
many various theories exist concerning the formation of these compounds.15'16'17
Measurements of municipal waste feed streams have indicated the presence of trace
quantities of PCDD/PCDF in the refuse feed. No such measurements have been made
for hospital waste streams, but some potential for PCDD/PCDF in the feed may exist
due to similarities in the wastes. PCDD/PCDF have been found in paper, for example.
PCDD/PCDF compounds have been found in the uncontrolled emissions from MWIs.
One theory for dioxin and furan formation in incinerators postulates that
precursors of PCDD and PCDF can be produced by pyrolysis of PVC in the waste in
oxygen-starved zones, such as those which exist in multichamber incinerators. Although
multichamber units are of the excess air type, starved air zones in these units can occur if
mixing and air supply are improper. The potential for PVC-bearing wastes to form
precursors during combustion has been studied by several researchers.9
Another theory proposes that PCDD/PCDF is synthesized from a variety of
organics and a chlorine donor. Analysis of intermediates formed during the combustion
of complex fuels, such as coal or wood, yields unchlorinated dioxin and furan speciesi
These compounds could become chlorinated in systems such as medical waste
incinerators where high concentrations of molecular chlorine exist in the combustion
zone.
A third possible mechanism involves catalytic reactions on fly ash particles at
temperatures in the range of 250°-350° C.9'17 In research sponsored by the Ontario
Ministry of Environment, formation of PCDDs/PCDFs was observed when the
thennolytic products of PVC combusted in air were heated to 300° C in the presence of
clean fly ash.9
3-23
-------
There is a growing consensus of opinion that the formation of dioxins and furans
in combustion furnaces requires excess air.9 Excess air combustion leads to lower
combustion temperatures which favor in-situ chlorine formation over HC1. The
additional presence of chlorine is then believed to promote the formation of dioxins and
furans. Lower temperatures that lead to PCDD/PCDF formation can also occur when
thick stacks or layers of paper (sometimes wet) are not completely burned, and the
exterior ash or char insulates the interior from temperatures needed for burning.
PCDDs and PCDFs may exist in both the vapor phase and as fine particulate in
medical waste incinerator emissions. PCDDs and PCDFs may be present in the vapor
phase at levels up to 80 percent of the total emitted.9 At temperatures below 300° F,
some vapors will condense onto fine participates9 The presence of tetra- through octa-
dibenzo-dioxin and -furan can be a surrogate for total organic control.
The techniques used to maximize destruction and prevent formation of
PCDD/PCDF involve prolonging ash residence time at combustion temperatures in the
primary chambers, and promoting mixing of solids to distribute heat evenly over all
particles. Large primary chambers with auxiMary mixing devices and carefully controlled
feed rates accomplish these goals. High levels of PCDD/PCDF have been found in
some studies of batch incinerators.11 This may be due to the low ash mixing behavior in
this type of incinerator.
The goal in PCDD/PCDF control is minimization of PCDD/PCDF formation
rather than capture, using good combustion practice (GCP) in the incinerator. The
conditions of GCP are summarized as follows:18
1) uniform wastefeed;
2) adequate supply and good air distribution in the incinerator;
3) sufficiently high incinerator gas temperatures (> 1500° F);
4) good mixing of combustion gas and air in all zones;
3-24
-------
5) minimization of PM entrainment into flue gas leaving the incinerator; and
6) temperature control of the gas entering the air pollution control device to
450° For less.
Low molecular weight organic compounds (LMWC) are products of incomplete
combustion of the volatiles which are evolved from the waste. They may be present due
to some of the same mechanisms previously discussed above for dioxins and furans.
LMWCs are produced when the combustion conditions are not optimized with respect to
residence time, temperature, and air/gas mixing in the incinerator. The longer the
residence time, the higher the temperature, and the greater the degree of turbulence in
the zone where the organics are combusted, the better the combustion and the lower the
LMWC emissions will be.
Carbon monoxide (CO) is also a product of incomplete combustion in the final
combustion zone. Carbon monoxide production is related to shorter residence times,
lower temperatures, and poorer mixing conditions than would be optimal for incinerator
combustion. Carbon monoxide (in lieu of carbon dioxide) formation occurs due to
incomplete combustion.
3.3.4 Factors Affecting Heavy Metal Concentrations in Incinerator Flue Gas
Organo-metallic compounds and inorganic wastes present in the waste stream can
be volatilized and oxidized under the high temperatures and oxidizing conditions in an
incinerator. As a result, inorganic oxides or salts of metals can be formed. Elemental
analysis of fly ash from municipal incinerators has shown that the particulate emissions
are largely inorganic in nature and contain high levels of oxides, silica, and phosphate
salts of Al, SI, Ca, Pb, Zn, and Fe along with some insoluble carbon compounds.
Although total metal concentration is lower in medical waste than in municipal waste
incinerators, the concentration of mercury in medical waste incinerator flue gas is 5-50
times higher than in municipal waste incinerators.9 Mercury in the ash is usually in the
form mercuric chloride (HgCl,).
3-25
-------
The type and amount of trace (heavy) metals in the flue gas are directly related to
the metals contained in the incinerator waste. Some trace metal sources in the waste
include surgical blades, batteries, measuring devices, foil wrappers, and plastics. Plastic
objects made of PVC contain cadmium heat-stabilizing compounds. Additionally,
cadmium may be found in paints. Mercury and mercuric chloride, present in hospital
waste, are a significant concern in medical waste incineration.
The volatilized organo-metallic compounds condense uniformly on all available
particulate surface area. Since submicrometer particles contribute most of the available
surface area, these particles have a very high concentration of volatile metals.11 This is
known as fine-particle enrichment. Metals generally thought to exhibit fine-particle
enrichment are As, Cd, Cr, Mn, Ni, Mo, Pb, Sb, Se, V, and Zn. Results of one study
performed at a MSW facility indicate that trace metals are found predominantly in the
respirable particulate fraction, even when the bulk of the emissions are in the
nonrespirable fraction.9
There are three general factors favoring enrichment of trace metals on fine
particulate:
• small particle size,
• large number of particles, and
• low flue gas temperatures.
There is some evidence that less metal enrichment on PM occurs at higher flue
gas temperatures. Higher incinerator temperatures are thought to lead to increased gas
activity levels which in turn make the metals less likely to condense and bond with PM.
Control of metal emission to the atmosphere involves minimiTing vaporization of
metals in the waste feed and maximizing small particle collection in the air pollution
control device. Mercury, for instance, due to its high vapor pressure, does not show
significant particle enrichment and is thought to leave the incinerator largely in the vapor
3-26
-------
form. Dry sorbent injection with activated carbon can achieve significant (> 97%)
mercury adsorption.19 Fabric filters achieve low metal particulate emissions; this is
believed to be because of their efficient control of small particles. Generally, particulate
control is a surrogate for metal control in an incinerator/air pollution control system.
3.3.5 Other Pollutants Specific to Medical Waste
Cytotoxic chemicals used in chemotherapy are toxic to cell growth and are
capable of impairing, injuring, or killing cells. Temperatures greater than 2000° F are
thought to be necessary for >99 percent destruction of cytotoxic chemicals.11 Examples
of cytotoxins are nitrosourea, cyclophosphamid, and anthracycline antibiotics.
The source of radioactive species in medical wastes is in-vitro diagnostic studies.
The levels of radioactivity are thought to be low (< 100 Ci/g) but difficult to estimate.11
Incineration is considered by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to be an
excellent means of low level radioactive .waste disposal.11 However, medical wastes are
not average mixtures of the components due to the dependance of waste composition on
hospital activities. And, since variations in incinerator temperatures by + 300° F can
occur, measures must be taken to control temperature if high overall destruction
efficiency of radioactive waste is to be maintained. Radio nuclides generated from
combustion of radioactive wastes will behave like heavy metals in subsequent emission
control units.
Infectious material is contributed to medical waste from animal and human blood,
other body fluids and body parts, and instruments or bedding materials which have come
into contact with them.
Pathogens are generally thermally sensitive and easy to destroy when exposed to
typical gas temperatures in a primary incinerator chamber for residence times of one to
two seconds.11 Emission of pathogens will occur when material is re-entrained from the
3-27
-------
residual ash into the incinerator exhaust gas and does not experience the combustion
temperatures necessary for destruction. Emissions of pathogens may occur when the
incinerator is operated at residence times and temperatures which are different from the
design values. Ram-fed waste delivery units especially can have difficulty in this area
when the isolation door is open during the feed cycle and uncontrolled air bursts enter
the lower chamber. In general, conditions that maximize the destruction of organics in
terms of proper time, temperature, and mixing will promote proper destruction of
pathogens and bacteria.11
If mainly pathological waste is charged, burners need to operate at all times in the
primary chamber. Also, the unit needs to operate with excess air in the primary
chamber even in a controlled air system.

SECTION 4
EMISSION FACTORS
Emission factors have been developed for the various pollutants emitted from
MWIs. These factors relate the amount of pollutant emitted in the flue gas to the
amount of waste combusted and may be used to estimate emissions from a facility. Flue
gas emissions are the only significant source of air toxics emissions from medical waste
incinerators. The estimated emissions should be used with caution, however, because the
emission factors are generally averages from several facilities and are not necessarily
representative of the emissions from any particular facility. Additionally, because of
limited data, a representative number of facilities could not always be used in evaluating
an emission factor. Also, variations in waste composition affect the resulting emissions.
If more accurate emission factors are needed, source testing should be done. Data
collected should include medical waste input composition and rate, ash composition, and
stack emissions. The actual air toxics emissions from any given facility are a function of
variables such as capacity, throughput, operating characteristics, and air pollution control
device operations. The effect of these factors need to be considered when testing.
In this document, emission factors are presented for acid gases including hydrogen
chloride (HC1), hydrogen fluoride (HF), hydrogen bromide (HBr), chlorine, sulfur
trioxide (SO,); metals including aluminum (Al), antimony (Sb), arsenic (As), barium
(Ba), beryllium (Be), cadmium (Cd), copper (Cu), chromium (Cr), iron (Fe), manganese
(Mn), mercury (Hg), nickel (Ni), silver (Ag), thallium (Ti); and organics including
chlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (CDD and CDF), polychlorinated
biphenyls (PCB), chlorinated benzene (CB), and chlorinated phenol (CP). Emission
factors for lead, criteria pollutants, and volatile organic compounds (VOC) are presented
in the EPA document, "Compilation of Air Pollutant Emission Factors, AP-42."

-------
Average emission factors for each pollutant were evaluated per incinerator type
(see Section 3.2) and emission control type (see Section 3.3). These overall averages
were derived by combining the average emission factors for each facility of the same
general combustor and emission control type. For facilities where multiple operating
conditions were evaluated or multiple tests were performed over different years, the
average emission factor from each test condition or test date was used in deriving the
overall average per combustor and emission control type.
The individual emission factors at each facility were derived by dividing the mass
emission rate of the pollutant by the measured or estimated waste feed rate. When a
pollutant was not detected, the detection limit was used. Based on the theoretical nature
of the F-factor (ratio of combustion gas volume to heat content of fuel) and the lack of
heating value data, this method was not used to calculate emission factors.
During this study, emissions test data were located for controlled air and rotary .
kiln incinerators. No data were located for excess air incinerators. The data quality
rating system, which is identical to that used for AP-42f, is detailed in Section 4.1.
Emission factors for controlled air incinerators are presented in Section 4.2. Emission
factors for rotary kiln incinerators are presented in Section 4.3.
Testing continues to be performed on medical waste incinerators, and EPA
welcomes submission of any additional data to supplement the information in this report.
Comments and additional data should be dkected to the address noted in Section 2.0 of
this report.
4.1 DATA QUALITY RATING
Emission factors in this document are based on data obtained from several
sources, such as published technical papers and reports and documented emission test
results. Data provided by individual sources vary from single values, to ranges of
minimum and maximum values, and finally to data from replicated source tests. Some
4-2
-------
data sources provide complete details about their collecting and analyzing procedures,
while others provide only sketchy information in this regard.
In developing the section on medical waste incineration for this document, the
following procedures were used to select data for both its quality and quantity. The
following data were always excluded from consideration:
1. Test series averages reported in units that could not be converted to the
selected reporting units.
2. Test series representing incompatible test methods (i.e., comparison of
EPA Method 5 front-half with EPA method 5 front- and back-half).
3. Test series of controlled emissions for which the control device was not
fully specified.
4. Test series in which the source process was not clearly identified and
described.
5. Test series in which it is not clear whether the emissions measured were
controlled or uncontrolled.
If there was no reason to exclude particular data or data sets from consideration,
each data set was assigned a quality rating from A (best) to D (worst). A rating system
was needed to indicate data reliability since some data were used when little other
information was available but were excluded when sufficient high-quality data existed.
The data were rated as follows:
A - When tests are performed by a sound methodology and are reported in
enough detail for adequate validation. These tests are not necessarily EPA
reference method tests, although such reference methods are preferred and
certainly should be used as a guide.
B - When tests are performed by a generally sound methodology, but they lack
enough detail for adequate validation.
C - When tests are based on an untested or new methodology or are lacking a
significant amount of background data.
D - When tests are based on a generally unacceptable method, but the method
~ may provide an order-of-magnitude value for the source.
4-3
-------
Following are the criteria used to evaluate source test reports for sound
methodology and adequate detail:
1- Source operation. The manner in which the source was operated is well
documented in the report. The source was operating within typical
parameters during the test.
2- Sampling procedures. If actual procedures deviated from standard
methods, the deviations are well documented. Procedural alterations are
often made in testing an uncommon type of source. When this occurs, an
evaluation is made of how such alternative procedures could influence the
test results.
3. Sampling and process data. Many variations can occur without warning
during testing, sometimes without being noticed. Such variations can
induce wide deviation in sampling results. If a large spread between test
results cannot be explained by information contained in the test report, the
data are suspect and are given a lower rating.
4. Analysis and calculations. The test reports contain original raw data
sheets. The nomenclature and equations used are compared with those
specified by EPA to establish equivalency. The depth of review of the
calculations is dictated by the reviewers' confidence in the ability and
conscientiousness of the tester, which hi turn is based on factors such as
consistency of results and completeness of other areas of the test report.
As an example, an A-rated test may be a stack test, a material balance, or some
other methodology, as long as it is generally accepted as a sound method of measuring
emissions from that source. In some cases, a material balance calculation may be rated
A, but a stack test may be rated only B or C.
Because only one combined value was used to calculate the emission factor for
each facility, only the results of tests of equal quality ratings were retained when
multiple-series tests were run at the same facility.
Although the rating system described above is subjective, it provides a basis for
excluding poor data when sufficient good data are available. In preparing the emission
factors presented in this document, the quality standards were applied to the data used
to calculate emission factors. All data ratings are documented, and the basis for
assigning the A through D ratings are stated in the background information for AP-42.1
4-4
-------
The reliability of each emission factor presented in this document is indicated by
an overall Emission Factor Rating from A (excellent) to E (poor). These ratings take
into account the quality and quantity of data from which the factors were calculated.
The following emission factor ratings are applied to the emission factor table.
A - Excellent. Developed only from A-rated source test data taken from many
randomly chosen facilities in the industry population. The source category
is specific enough to minimize variability within the source population.
B - Above average. Developed only from A-rated test data from a reasonable
number of facilities. Although no specific bias is evident, it is not clear if
the facilities tested represent a random sample of the industries. As with
the A rating, the source is specific enough to minimize variability within
the source population.
C - Average. Developed only from A- and B-rated test data from a reasonable
number of facilities. Although no specific bias is evident, it is not clear if
the facilities tested represent a random sample of the industry. As with the
A rating, the source category is specific enough to minimize variability
within the source population.
D - Below average. The emission factor was developed only from A- and B-
rated test data from a small number of facilities, and there may be reason
to suspect that these facilities do not represent a random sample of the
industry. There also may be evidence of variability within the source
population.
E - Poor. The emission factor was developed from C- and or D- rated test
data, and there may be reason to suspect that the facilities tested do not
represent a random sample of the industry. There also may be evidence of
variability within the source category population. Any limitations on the
use of these factors are always clearly noted.
Ideally, a large number of A-rated source test sets representing a cross-section of
the medical waste industry would be reduced to a single emission factor value for each
individual source by computing arithmetic means for each test set and then calculating
an overall arithmetic mean for all the sources. However, because the information
presented in this document represents less than 1 percent of the total MWI population,
the emission factors presented in the following sections should be used cautiously.

4.2 EMISSION FACTORS FOR CONTROLLED AIR INCINERATORS
Emission factors for controlled air incinerators are presented in Tables 4-1
through 4-12. System International (SI) units and English units are presented in each
table. The emission factors are for uncontrolled flue gas emissions as well as controlled
flue gas emissions. Emission factors for controlled emissions are separated by the
different types of emission controls used with controlled air incinerators which include:
PM control only (fabric filter), acid gas control only (wet scrubber), PM and acid gas
control (wet scrubber with fabric filter and dry sorbent injection with fabric filter), and
PM, acid gas and mercury control (dry sorbent injection and fabric filter with activated
carbon).

4.3 EMISSION FACTORS FOR ROTARY KILN INCINERATORS
Emission factors for rotary kiln incinerators are presented in Tables 4-13 through
4-15. System International (SI) units and English units are used in each table. The emission
factors are for uncontrolled flue gas emission as well as controlled flue gas emissions.
Emission factors for controlled emissions are separated by the different types of emission
controls used, which include: PM and acid gas control (wet scrubber with fabric filter) and
PM, acid gas and mercury control (wet scrubber and fabric filter with activated carbon).

SECTION 5
SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS PROCEDURES
The purpose of this section is to provide a brief discussion of the EPA reference
methods and/or generally accepted methods of sampling and analysis used to gather
emissions data on air toxics emitted from medical waste incinerators. Different sampling and
analytical methods than the ones listed have been used previously. Slight modifications of
the methods listed may be specified by some state agencies to make results consistent with
their regulatory compliance results. However, the sampling methods described in this section
are widely used and accepted and should yield results comparable with data from other
facilities.
Acid gases (HCI, HF and HBr) can be tested by a variety of sampling and analytical
methods. Sampling for HCI can be performed with an EPA Reference Method 5 sampling
train with either water, NaOH, or sodium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate in the
impingers. The emission tests performed by the California Air Resources Board use a
Method 5 sampling train, but reference the method as CARB method 421. An example
Method 5 train is shown in Figure 5-1. Manual methods and continuous emission monitors
(CEM) for HCI were used during one test. Sampling for HF can be performed in
accordance with EPA Reference Method 13A procedures, again using a Method 5 train1.
However, standard Method 5 trains may reduce the HF measured through reactions with
glass components in the trains. The most recent test used a single sampling train for
hydrogen chloride, hydrogen bromide and hydrogen fluoride sampling. The procedure
follows the EPA Method 26 draft protocol entitled, "The Determination of HCI Emissions
from Municipal and Hazardous Waste Incinerators." Analytical techniques for these three
acid gases include ion chromatography (for HCI, HF and HBr), the mercuric nitrate method

(for HC1), and ion selective electrode (for HC1 and HF).
Sampling for metals (Sb, As, Ba, Be, Cd, Cr, Fe, Mn, Hg, Ni, Ag and Tl) is done
by a variety of methods. Arsenic can be sampled using EPA Reference Method 1082.
Beryllium can be sampled using EPA Reference Method 1042. Sampling for Hg can be
performed using EPA Reference Method 101A2. The sampling trains used for these metals
are similar to the EPA Reference Method 5 trains. Cadmium, total chromium, and nickel
can be sampled according to EPA Reference Method 121. The most recent test used a single
sampling train and performed the sampling according to an EPA Emission Measurement
Branch (EMB) draft protocol entitled "Methodology for the Determination of Metals
Emissions in Exhaust Gases from Incineration Processes." This method is applicable for the
determination of particulates and Sb, As, Ba, Be, Cd, Cr, Ca, Mn, Hg, Ni, P, Pb, Se, Ag,
Tl and Zn emissions from various types of incinerators. Analyses for antimony arsenic,
barium, beryllium, cadmium, chromium, nickel, silver and thallium are performed using
atomic absorption spectroscopy or inductively coupled plasma spectroscopy. Mercury is
analyzed using manual cold vapor atomic absorption spectrophotometry.
Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and polychlorinated dibenzofurans can be sampled
by using a modified EPA Reference Method 5 train. A water-cooled condenser and XAD-II®
resin cartridge are placed immediately before the impinger section. The CDD/CDF is
extracted off the resin by using toluene. The aqueous components and rinses are extracted
using acetone and methylene chloride. Analysis of the organics is accomplished by using gas
chromotography and mass spectrometry. The most recent test performed the sampling
according to EPA Proposed Method 23, which is similar to the above procedure.
Requests for additional information on reference and experimental methods should be
sent to:
