PREFACE
EPA has focused most of its past efforts in the control of air toxics
on the Clean Air Act §112 National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants (NESHAP) program. The amount of time involved for §112 listing
and eventual control is extensive. The public is concerned over continuing
exposure to potentially toxic air pollutants. The resultant public pressure
has had an impact such that many state and local agencies have developed or
are now actively developing air toxics regulatory programs apart from
Federal activities.
In response to state and local agency requests for assistance in
information exchange, EPA has designed and is implementing an information
dissemination center, known as the Air Toxics Information Clearinghouse. It
has been designed and is being implemented in close coordination with the
State and Territorial Air Pollution Program Administrators (STAPPA) and the
Association of Local Air Pollution Control Officials (ALAPCO).
The purpose of this bibliography, published by the Air Toxics Informa-
tion Clearinghouse, is to provide state and local agencies with citations to
EPA publications useful to them in developing and operating air toxics
control programs. This issue of the bibliography is an updated and expanded
version of a similar bibliography published in March 1984. The bibliography
contains citations to such document types as health assessments and exposure
assessments that have a clear, direct bearing on air toxics work. In
addition, the bibliography contains references to background information
documents for new source performance standards (NSPS) that discuss criteria
pollutants. These document references are included because the sources
described in the background information documents often also emit noncriteria
pollutants and information relevant to noncriteria, potentially toxic
pollutants is found in many background documents. Compilation of citations
presented here was complete as of December 1984.

This updated bibliography is one of several publications prepared by
the Clearinghouse. Other publications include:
Air Toxics Information Clearinghouse: Ongoing Research and
Regulatory Development Projects - March 1984

ABSTRACT
An Air Toxics Information Clearinghouse has been established by the EPA
Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards for the purpose of facilitating
information transfer among state, local, and Federal air quality management
agencies. This document has been published as part of that effort. The
purpose is to provide state and local agencies and other Clearinghouse users
with citations to EPA publications useful in developing and operating air
toxics control programs.
This document has four parts. The introductory material discusses the
scope, organization, and use of the document and gives ordering information
for the EPA reports and the Federal Register notices cited. Indices to the
reports by document type, pollutant class or name, and source are included
in Part 2. Part 3 contains the citation entries with bibliographic informa-
tion and an abstract for each report and notice. Part 4, the Appendix,
lists information which is available in unpublished form from the sources
indicated.
This document was submitted in partial fulfillment of Contract
No. 68-02-3889* Work Assignment 16, by the Radian Corporation under the
sponsorship of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. It supercedes the
first edition of this document published in March 1984 entitled Air Toxics
Information Clearinghouse: Bibliography of EPA Reports. This second
edition contains all the citations listed in the previous edition plus
citations to any new EPA reports published since January 1984. In addition,
it includes for the first time citations to Federal Register notices
pertaining to the Clean Air Act §lll(d) NSPS and §112 NESHAP programs and
recent proposed guidelines issued by the Office of Health and Environmental
Assessment. All citations which are new to this edition are indicated by an
asterisk. Compilation of citations for this edition was completed in
December 1984 and the document was published in January 1985.

PART 1. INTRODUCTION
This bibliography has been developed by the Air Toxics Information
Clearinghouse and the Pollutant Assessment Branch of the EPA Office of Air
Quality Planning and Standards (OAQPS). Over 375 bibliographic citations of
EPA reports and Federal Register notices pertinent to state and local agency
concerns over air toxics are included. To facilitate the use of this
bibliography, the citations are indexed by document type, pollutant
name/class, and source.
Like other Clearinghouse publications, this bibliography is designed to
help Clearinghouse users identify sources of information for specific air
toxics questions or problems. The second edition of the bibliography
announces over 75 new reports and lists citations to 40 Federal Register
notices. In future updates of this bibliography, new reports and notices
will be added.
Document Scope
This bibliography contains a selected list of EPA reports and Federal
Register notices which have been identified as being useful to state and
local agencies developing and operating air toxics control programs. The
EPA reports include the following:
health assessments
exposure assessments
source assessments
emission factors documents
technical monitoring documents
methodologies for source sampling and ambient monitoring, and
New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) and National Emission
Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) background
information documents.
-------
Citations for each of these types of documents were compiled by
contacting the EPA office currently conducting that particular type of work.
The following EPA offices were contacted:
Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards,
Office of Health and Environmental Assessment,
Office of Pesticides and Toxic Substances,
Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response, and
Office of Research and Development.
Abstracts for the EPA reports appearing in this document were obtained
from the EPA Publications Bibliography, the National Technical Information
Service (NTIS) data base, or the technical data sheet included at the end of
EPA publications.
The Federal Register notices include the Agency's announcements
regarding Sections lll(d) and 112 of the Clean Air Act dealing with the New
Source Performance Standards and the National Emission Standards for
Hazardous Air Pollutants programs, respectively. The notices also include
proposed guidelines concerning health, exposure, and risk assessments issued
by the Office of Health and Environmental Assessment.
Abstracts for the Federal Register notices were prepared from the
Summary and Supplementary Information sections of each notice.
Organization of Document
This document consists of four parts. The introductory material
discusses the scope, organization, and use of the document and gives
ordering information for the cited EPA reports and Federal Register notices.
Part 2 consists of three indices that will enable users to identify reports
and notices of interest. All of the published EPA reports and Federal
Register notices in the third part of this bibliography are indexed by
document type, pollutant class or name, and source. Part 3 contains the
report and notice entries with bibliographic information and an abstract for
-------
each citation. All the reports in this section are published EPA reports
available from the National Technical Information Service (NTIS). All of
the Federal Register notices are available from the U.S. Government Printing
Office. Part 4, the Appendix, lists information which is available in
unpublished form from the sources indicated. The items listed in the
Appendix are not included in the indices.
The Agency recognizes that this organization departs from the standard
format in which the indices traditionally appear at the end of a document.
The Agency felt that this particular organization would emphasize or high-
light the three separate listings of citations and would made this document
easier to use.
-------
PART 2: INDICES
DOCUMENT TYPE INDEX
Index entries in this Section are classified according to the
following nine document types: health assessment, exposure
assessment, source assessment, emission factors document, source
sampling/ambient monitoring methodology, technical monitoring
document, New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) background
information document, National Emission Standards for Hazardous
Air Pollutants (NESHAP) background information document, and
Federal Register (FR) notice.
While there may be overlap between the kinds of information
included in these nine categories, the document type identified
for each report reflects the primary emphasis. In most cases, a
document clearly fell into one of the nine categories, and thus
the citation appears only once under that document type. In a few
cases where it was difficult to select a single most appropriate
document type, the citation is listed under all appropriate
categories.
The entries are arranged by document type and then by NTIS order
number or by Federal Register volume and page number. An asterisk
denotes an entry new to this edition.

POLLUTANT NAME/CLASS INDEX
The indexing terms for each EPA report entry were assigned from
the report abstract, which was taken from the EPA Publications
Bibliography, the NTIS data base, or in some cases, the technical
data sheet located in the report itself. The indexing terms for
each Federal Register entry were obtained from the Summary and
Supplementary Information section of each notice.
The entries in this section are classified under the most specific
pollutant or chemical name indicated in the abstract. No attempt
was made to list synonyms. When the abstract discusses numerous
chemicals or pollutants, and it is not possible because of space
limitations to list them all, or when the abstract only discusses
the pollutants in a generic way, a generic term, such as "organic
compounds," is used.
The entries are arranged by pollutant and then by NTIS order
number or by Federal Register volume and page number. An asterisk
denotes an entry new to this edition.

SOURCE INDEX
The indexing terms for each EPA report entry were assigned from
the report abstract, which was taken from the EPA Publications
Bibliography, the NTIS data base, or, in some cases, the technical
data sheet located in the report itself. The indexing terms for
each Federal Register entry were obtained from the Summary and
Supplementary Information sections of each notice.
Entries in this section are classified according to the source of
the air pollutant emissions. These entries are indexed under the
name of the specific source and also under the name of the larger
industry group, where applicable. Thus, a report listed under
"polyvinyl chloride plants" would also be listed under "chemical
industry".
The entries are arranged by source category and then by NTIS order
number or by Federal Register volume and page number. An asterisk
denotes an entry new to this edition.

EPA, Research Triangle Park, NC, OAP
Aug 71, 61p, APTD-0711
Standards of performance for new stationary sources are
established under Section 111 of the Clean Air Act. For
each industrial or source category, EPA sets individual
emissions standards, designations of affected facili-
ties, monitoring requirements, and test methods and
procedures. Two types of documents, the proposed back-
ground information document (BID) and the promulgation
BID, are associated with the development of each NSPS.
The proposal BID summarizes information gathered on the
industry being regulated and discusses possible control
technologies. A number of regulatory alternatives are
presented. Generally, each alternative contains a
different control technology. The economic, environ-
mental and energy impacts of each alternative are
analyzed in the proposal BID. After an alternative has
been selected and a standard proposed, the promulgation
BID is written. This BID contains a summary of all
public comments made on the proposed standard and the
EPA Administrator's response to the comments. It also
describes any changes made to the standard since
proposal. In addition, it contains the final environ-
mental impact statement, which summarizes the impact of
the standard. In addition to the background informa-
tion documents, a review document is usually generated
after EPA completes its periodic review of the promul-
gated standard.

Source Assessment: Prioritization of Air Pollution from
Industrial Surface Coating Operations
EPA, Research Triangle Park, NC, IERL
Monsanto Research Corp.
T. W. Hughes, et al
Feb 75, 311p, EPA-650/2-75-019A
Industrial surface coating operations, excluding those
associated with automobile and architectural painting,
are used in the coating of sheet, strip, coil, paper
and paperboard, in treating fabrics, and in finishing
appliances, machinery and furniture. These coating
operations produce hydrocarbon emissions, primarily
solvents and resins, and particulate emissions.
Background information and technical data were
collected and analyzed in this study in order to
establish a data base for prioritizing atmospheric
emissions from industrial surface coating operations,
excluding automobile and architectural painting. This
special project was undertaken to provide information
on solvent evaporation processes required by the EPA
for use in establishing New Source Performance
Standards for industrial surface coating operations.

Standard Support and Environmental Impact Statement:
Emission Standard for Vinyl Chloride
EPA, Research Triangle Park, NC, OAQPS
Oct 75, 536p, EPA-450/2-75-009A
A national emission standard for vinyl chloride emitted
from ethylene dichlonde-vinyl chloride and polyvinyl
chloride plants is being proposed under the authority
of section 112 of the Clear Air Act. Vinyl chloride
has been implicated as the causal agent of angiosarcoma
and other serious disorders, both carcinogenic and
noncarcinogenic, in people with occupational exposure
and in animals with experimental exposure to vinyl
chloride. Reasonable extrapolations from these find-
ings cause concern that vinyl chloride may cuase or
contribute to the same or similar disorders at present
ambient air levels. The purpose of the proposed
standard is to minimize vinyl chloride emissions from
all known process and fugitive emission sources in
ethylene dichloride-vinyl chloride and polyvinyl
chloride plants to the level attainable with best avail-
able control technology. This would have the effect of
furthering the protection of public health by minimiz-
ing the health risks to the people living in the
vicinity of theses plants and to any additional people
who are exposed as a result of new construction. This
is estimated to have the effect of reducing emissions
from a typical ethylene dichloride-vinyl chloride plant
by approximately 94 percent and from d typical poly-
vinyl chloride plant by approximately 95 percent.
Environmental Impact and Inflation Impact Statements
quantifying the impacts of the proposed standard and
alternative control levels are included in the docu-
ment.

This report is one in a series of source assessments,
each describing air emissions from a particular
industry. Each source assessment contains a descrip-
tion of industrial processes and identifies major
emission points and pollutants. Emission factors or
rates are given for the major pollutants from the
source under study. Control technology is discussed.
Finally, source severity factors are calculated as a
measure of the potential environmental effects of air
emissions from the Industry.

The report describes a prioritization model for the
rank-ordering of stationary air pollution sources. The
source types were rank-ordered or prioritized by
computing a relative environmental impact factor for
each source type. A priority listing was developed for
each of four categories: combustion, organic materials,
inorganic materials, and open sources. The report also
describes both the actual application of the model and
the types of calculations that were performed depending
upon the degree of input aggregation. The report also
gives detailed examples of use, as well as results of
sensitivity analyses, showing how the prioritization
model responds to input changes.

The report gives results of a study simulating the
establishment of the severity of stationary air pollu-
tion sources. The potential environmental impact of an
emission source can be determined from the source
severity (the ground level concentration contribution
of pollutants relative to some potentially hazardous
concentration of the same species). The frequency
distribution of the severity of wel 1-documented source
types can be examined deterministically. A statistical
approach is required to simulate the frequency distri-
bution of the severity of source types that are complex
or involve a large number of emission points in order
to ultimately assess such sources. A Monte Carlo
simulation technique is described in this report,
together with efficient algorithms for fitting the
inverse Wei bull, gamma, normal, and log-normal cumu-
lative density functions. Significant correlation is
demonstrated between deterministic and simulated
severity results using coal-fired steam/electric
utilities as an example.

Volume 2. Promulgated Emission Standard for Vinyl
Chloride
EPA, Research Triangle Park, NC, OAQPS
Sep 76, 135p, EPA-450/2-75-009B
A national emission standard for vinyl chloride emitted
from ethylene dlchloride-vinyl chloride and polyvinyl
chloride plants is being promulgated under the authority
of section 112 of the Clear Air Act. Vinyl chloride
has been implicated as the causal agent of angiosarcoma
and other serious disorders, both carcinogenic and
noncarcinogenic, in people with occupational exposure
and in animals with experimental exposure to vinyl
chloride. Reasonable extrapolations from these findings
cause concern that vinyl chloride may cause or contri-
bute to the same or similar disorders at present ambient
air levels. The purpose of the standard is minimize
vinyl chloride emissions from all known process and
fugitive emission sources in ethylene dichloride-vinyl
chloride and polyvinyl chloride plants to the level
attainable with best available control technology.
This would have the effect of furthering the protection
of public health by minimizing the health risks to the
people living in the vicinity of these plants and to
any additional people who are exposed as a result of
new construction. This is estimated to have the effect
of reducing emissions from a typical ethylene dichlo-
ride-vinyl chloride plant by approximately 94 percent
and from a typical polyvinyl chloride plant by approxi-
mately 95 percent. This document contains a summary of
the public comments on the proposed standard and EPA's
responses to the comments. It also contains updated
information concerning the environmental and infla-
tionary impacts of the standard.

Emission data obtained from source tests, material
balance studies, engineering estimates, etc., have been
compiled for use by individuals and groups responsible
for conducting air pollution emission inventories.
Emission factors given in this document, the result of
the expansion and continuation of earlier work, cover
most of the common emission categories: fuel combus-
tion by stationary and mobile sources, combustion of
solid wastes, evaporation of fuels, solvents, and other
volatile substances, various industrial processes, and
miscellaneous sources. When no specific source-test
data are available, these factors can be used to
estimate the quantities of primary pollutants (particu-
lates, CO, S02, NOx, and hydrocarbons) being released
from a source or source group. Individual AP-42

Described are methods to measure the polychlorlnated
biphenyl (PCB) emissions from the stacks of municipal
waste, industrial waste, and sewage sludge incinerators
and from capacitor and transformer filling plants. The
PCB emissions from the incineration plants are collect-
ed by impingement 1n water and adsorption on Florlsil.
The samples are extracted with hexane, concentrated
through evaporation of the solvent, perchlorinated, and
the polychlorinated biphenyl content measured as the
decachlorinated isomer using a gas chromatograph
equipped with a flame ionization detector. The PCB
emissions from the capacitor and transformer filling
plants are collected directly on Florisil, extracted
with hexane and quantified against the appropriate
Aroclor using a gas chromatograph. The methods were
developed from laboratory studies and field tested at
nine Incineration plants and two transformer filling
plants.

Jan 78, ZlOp, EPA-450/2-78-003A
Guidelines to aid the states in their preparation of
plans for the control of emissions of total reduced
sulfur (TRS) from existing kraft pulp mills are being
proposed under the authority of section lll(d) of the
Clean Air Act. TRS emissions from kraft pulp mills are
extremely odorous, and there are numerous instances of
poorly controlled mills creating public odor problems.
Adoptions of the proposed emission guidelines by the
states would result in an overall reduction of about 80
percent in nationwide TRS emissions from kraft pulp
mills.

The report summarizes the results of a Phase II test
program demonstrating the effectiveness of thermal
destruction of industrial wastes in commercial scale
facilities. Phase I was a study effort to select and
match suitable wastes and destruction facilities, and
to develop a set of detailed facility test plans.
Phase II evaluated the environmental, technical, and
economic feasibility of thermally destroying fourteen
selected industrial wastes in seven different existing
commercial scale processing facilities. Results
Indicated that each of the wastes tested can be
thermally destroyed at high efficiencies. Separate
detailed reports published for each facility test
series conducted and the two volume Phase I report are
listed in the references.

This report >s an overview of the pesticide manufactur-
ing industry and prioritizes 80 major pesticides based
on their potential environmental burden from an air
pollution standpoint. Production of synthetic organic
pesticides was about 640,000 metric tons in 1974.
Thirty-seven major synthetic organic pesticides, those
with annual production of 4540 or more tons, accounted
for 74* of the market. Elemental chlorine is common to
most pesticides, but other raw materials include
hydrogen cyanide, carbon disulfide, phosgene, phos-
phorus pentasulfide, hexachloro-cyclopentadiene,
various amines, and concentrated acids and caustics.
Air pollution aspects of the pesticide manufacturing
industry are essentially without quantitative data.
For some plants, the pollution caused by loss of active
ingredients is less significant than that caused by
unreacted by-products. Evaporation from holding ponds
and evaporation lagoons may also be an emission source,
although few quantitative data are available.
Emissions emanate from various pieces of equipment and
enter the atmosphere as both the active ingredient and
as raw materials, intermediates, and by-products. Air
emission control devices include baghouses, cyclone
separators, electrostatic precipitators, Incinerators,
and gas scrubbers. Synthetic organic pesticide produc-
tion in 1985 will be about 806,000 metric tons.

Jan 78, 221p, EPA-530/SW-147C
An experimental program was carried out in 1975/76 at
the St. Lawrence Cement Co., Mississauga, Ontario in
which waste chlorinated hydrocarbons, containing up to
about 46 weight percent chlorine, were burned in a
rotary cement kiln. Materials burned included mixtures
of ethylene dichloride, chlorotoluene and up to appro-
ximately 50 percent polychlorinated biphenyls (PCS).
These materials were destroyed in the cement kiln with
at least 99.98 percent efficiency in all cases.
Emissions of high molecular weight chlorinated hydro-
carbons, dichloromethane, chloroform and carbon tetra-
chloride, were found in the emissions in the part per
billion or lower range. The quantity of predpltator
dust requiring disposal, as well as emissions of
particulate matter, increased during the test. A
reduction in fossil fuels used while burning chlori-
nated hydrocarbons was noted.

The report addresses the selection of relevant factors
to gain perspective of the pollution potential from
pesticides manufacturing and formulating operations and
leads to the evolvement and defense of decision crite-
ria for assessing the need for development of emissions
control technology. Pesticides manufacturing and
formulating operations are treated as materials Input/
output systems, with chemical wastes identified for all
media. From about 300 active pesticide Ingredients,
six candidates (representing five different chemical
classifications) were chosen for detailed source
assessment. The pesticide industry is characterized
and quantified where possible, using available infor-
mation. Data give a macroeconomlc view of the pesti-
cides manufacturing and formulating operations.
Government regulatory pressure and posture is identi-
fied and assessed. Appendices contain much information
on the pesticides industry from several viewpoints.

Apr 78, 116p, EPA-600/2-78-087
The report provides a generalized description of at-sea
and land-based incineration of organochlorine wastes
and an assessment of their corresponding impacts. The
data base for at-sea incineration was obtained during a
series of burns, between April 1974 and March 1977.
Data describing land-based incineration were obtained
from a review of the literature, and a brief survey of
companies involved in commercial use and manufacture of
incinerators. The report includes: (1) typical
organochlorine waste compositions, (2) descriptions of
emissions produced during at-sea and land-based inciner-
ation, (3) a simulation of corresponding air quality
changes, (4) a description of predicted paths of
transport of emission constituents, (5) estimates of
water quality changes associated with both types of
incineration, (6) an assessment of the potential for
malfunction which could produce adverse environmental
effects, (7) a general discussion of the kinds of
environmental impacts associated with the incineration
processes, and (8) identification of areas where there
are needs for upgrading existing systems and data gaps
which limit the comprehensiveness of the analysis.

EPA, Research Triangle Park, NC, OAQPS
Jun 78, 24p, EPA-45C/2-77-030
The national emission standard for asbestos is being
amended. Scientific information indicates that
asbestos exposure can cause cancer and other adverse
health effects. The amendments will reduce asbestos
emissions by requiring that proper work practices be
followed during the renovation and demolition of
buildings where friable asbestos materials are present
and by prohibiting the spray application of asbestos
materials which would be friable after drying. A brief
description of the economic and environmental impacts
associated with these amendments is included in this
document.

The report is one in a series that SRI Internation is
providing on a quick response basis for the U. S. Environ-
mental Protection Agency (EPA). Populations-at-risk to
selected pollutants are being quantified for input to
other more inclusive studies. The primary objective of
this study was to estimate the environmental exposure
of the U. S. populationto atmospheric benzene emissions
from specific sources. In this estimate it was assumed
that individuals residing in the vicinity of benzene
sources spend 24 hours of each day in the same loca-
tions. To estimate more representative exposures, a
second objective was added—to make rough estimates of
individuals' total exposures by defining total exposure
as the sum of exposures to all benzene sources includ-
ing those in nonresidential areas, within a designated
period.

Three different air sampling methods were used simul-
taneously to monitor for PCB emissions arising from a
pilot disposal project Involving electrolytic capaci-
tors. Analytical results indicated that the primary
polychlorinated biphenyl material was Aroclor 1242, and
that airborne concentrations inside the building
housing the grinders exceeded 5mg/cu m. The PCB air
concentrations outside the building at a distance of 9m
were typically <1.0 microgram/cu m. Measurements made
with one low-volume and two high-volume air samples are
compared.

The Kepone Incineration Test (KIT) program was under-
taken to evaluate incineration as a method of destroy-
ing Kepone and Kepone-containing materials and to
determine the range of operating variables required for
complete destruction. The program was divided into two
phases: (a) experiments involving the direct injection
of low BTU solutions of Kepone into the afterburner,
and (b) experiments involving the coincineratipn of
sewage sludge and various amounts of Kepone injected
into a rotary kiln. Each phase was designed so that
succeeding experiments involved longer
amounts of Kepone and/or alterations in afterburner
temperature and residence time.

Guidelines to aid the State in their preparation of
plans for the control of emissions of total reduced
sulfur (TRS) from existing kraft pulp mills are being
published under the authority of Section lll(d) of the
Clean Air Act. TRS emissions from kraft pulp mills are
extremely odorous, and there are numerous instances of
poorly controlled mills creating public odor problems.
Adoption of these emission guidelines by the States
would result In an overall reduction of about 80
percent in nationwide TRS emissions from kraft pulp
mills.

The report provides the results of a study that was
conducted to analyze the uncertainties involved in the
calculation of the decision parameters used in the
Source Assessment Program and to determine the effect
of these uncertainties on the decision-making pro-
cedure. A general procedure for performing an analysis
of uncertainty is developed based on the principles of
error propagation and statistical Inference. It is
shown that this simple and straightforward method
represents an approximation to standard statistical
techniques. The approximate method 1s illustrated by
application to four problems in the area of environ-
mental control. The general procedure is used to
establish guidelines for conducting air emissions
studies in the Source Assessment Program. In par-
ticular, guidelines are established for precision in
field sampling and analytical work, and for setting
critical values of decision parameters.

The report is one of a series of reports which will be
used by EPA in responding to the Congressional mandate
under the Clear Air Act Amendments of 1977 to determine
66
-------
whether atmospheric emissions of cadmium pose a threat
to public health. The report identifies the population
exposed to specified cadmium levels from selected point
sources. The sources considered are iron and steel
mills, municipal incinerators, primary smelters (zinc,
copper, lead, and cadmium), and secondary smelters
(copper and zinc). Municipal incinerators are the
chief contributors to the total population exposed.
Primary zinc and primary copper smelters are estimated
to cause the highest concentrations.

EPA, Research Triangle Park, NC, OAQPS
Dec 79, 346p, EPA-450/2-78-049B
This document serves as a text to State agencies 1n
planning for control of fluoride emissions from exist-
ing primary aluminum plants. Achievable fluoride
capture and removal efficiencies are given for new
retrofit hooding and for primary and secondary removal
devices, respectively. Methods for deriving capital
and annualized costs are illustrated by a few examples.
Costs and fluoride emission reductions achieved by
actual retrofits are given for ten plants, and the
construction scope of work 1s described in detail for
three of these plants. The guidelines are presented as
recommended control technologies that will achieve
certain average control efficiencies when applied as
new retrofits to existing plants.

Chemical Hazard Information Profiles (CHIPs)
EPA, Washington, O.C.. OPTS
Apr 80, 296p, EPA-560/11-80-011
This collection of 40 Chemical Hazard Information
Profile (CHIP) reports was prepared by the Office of
Pesticides and Toxic Substances (OPTS) between
August 1, 1976, and November 20, 1979. Chemicals are
chosen for CHIP preparation on the basis of information
indicating potential for adverse health or environmen-
tal effects of significant exposure. The CHIP itself
is a brief summary of readily available information
concerning health and environmental effects and expo-
sure potential of a chemical. Information gathering
for a CHIP 1s generally limited to a search of second-
ary literature sources and is not intended to be
exhaustive; however, in depth searches on specific
topics may be done on a case-by-case basis. In
general, no attempt is made to evaluate or validate
information at this stage of assessment. Preparation
of a CHIP is part of the first stage in the OPTS
Chemical Risk Assessment Process. The purpose of the
CHIP is to enable OPTS to make a tentative decision on
an appropriate course of action for the subject chemi-
cal and to identify and characterize problems that may
require more thorough investigation and evaluation.

A sampling system was developed for collecting 20
significant probable or possible atmospheric carcino-
gens from ambient air. The sampling system is based on
a combination of solid sorbent materials consisting of
Tenax-GC, Porapak R, and Ambersorb XE-340 arranged in
series. Air samples are drawn through the system using
a Nutech Model 221-1A pump. The system was evaluated
in sampling trips to Los Angeles, Niagara Falls, and
Houston. The results for analyses for the 20 selected
compounds as well as additional broad scan data are
presented. Analyses of the samples were accomplished
using thermal desorption of the sorbent materials
followed by capillary column gas chromatography/mass
spectrometry (GC/MS). A sample collected in Houston
was also analyzed using a conventional flame ionization
detector, a N-P flame ionization detector, a photoioni-
zation detector and an electron capture detector. A
comparison of the GC/MS and multidetector GC results
was made.

Thermal Conversion of Municipal Wastewater Sludge,
Phase II: Study of Heavy Metal Emissions
EPA, Cincinnati, OH, MERL

Sep 81, 96p, EPA-600/2-81-203
The object of this work was to compare and analyze
heavy metal emissions associated with the thermal
70
-------
conversion (incineration) processes which can be
conducted in a multiple-hearth furnace to dry municipal
wastewater (sewage) sludge and reduce its volume by
forming an ash or char. Sludge for this project was
obtained from Jersey City, New Jersey. It contains
about 8 percent sol Ids which were increased to between
40 and 50 percent solid by adding polymer as a filter
aid and filtering it in a 4 ft x 4 ft pilot filter
press having expandable rubber diaphragm plates. A
pilot scale multiple-hearth furnace, .91 m (36 inch)
10 x 6 hearth was used for the thermal conversion
process. Sludge was subjected to thermal conversion at
the conditions: (1) Incineration at 900C (1625F);
(2) Low Temperature Conversion at 700C (1290F) (starved
air combustion or pyrolysis); (3) High Temperature
Conversion at 900C (1290F) (starved air combustion or
pyrolysis). Results indicated that the low temperature
conversion substantially retained cadmium, lead, and
beryllium 1n the ash or char when compared to incinera-
tion. However, the ash retained far more silver during
incineration than 1t did during high or low temperature
conversion.

Health Assessment Document for Cadmium

L. D. Grant, et al.
Oct 81. 362p, EPA-600/8-81-023
This document provides a critical assessment of health
effects and public health risks associated with environ-
mental exposure to cadmium (Cd). Sources and routes of
exposure are discussed and identified. Dose-effect/
response relationships and populations at special risk
are delineated. Cadmium is naturally present in most
environmental media. Major anthropogenic sources are:
(1) smelting and mining, (2) certain manufacturing
processes, and (3) waste disposal operations. Food is
the largest environmental source for most humans,
although Cd intake from smoking can equal or exceed Cd
intake from food. Acute non-lethal exposure is
associated with chronic respiratory effects. However,
since most environmental exposures to Cd are of a
long-term, low-level type, primary emphasis has been
placed on discussing effects of such chronic exposure.
Cadmium's accumulation in the kidney results renal
tubular dysfunction after many years of exposure.
Estimates of the concentration of Cd in the renal
cortex necessary to Induce these effects and estimates
of exposure necessary to produce the critical renal
concentration vary widely, partially due to individual
biological variability. Populations at special risk to
Cd are cigarette smokers, as well as the older segments
of the population (>50 years of age).

This report deals with a group of hazardous chemical
compounds known as dioxins. The extreme toxicity of
one of these chemicals, 2,3,7,8-tetrachlor-dioxin
(2,3,7,8-TCDD), has been a concern of both scientific
researchers and the public for many years. The sheer
mass of published information that has resulted from
this concern has created difficulties in assessing the
overall scope of the dioxin problem. In this report,
the voluminous data on 2,3,7,8-TCDD and other dioxins
are summarized and assembled in a manner that allows
comparison of related observations from many sources;
thus, the report serves as a comprehensive guide in
evaluation of the environmental hazards of dioxins.
Sections 2 and 3 present detailed Information on the
chemistry and sources of dioxins. Various routes of
formation of dioxins are discussed, and the possible
presence of dioxins in basic organic chemicals and
pesticides 1s addressed. Section 4 details the develop-
ment of an analytical method for detecting part-per-
trillion levels of dioxins in industrial wastes.
Sections 5 through 8 discuss routes of human exposure
to dioxins, including accounts of public and occupa-
tional exposure, and the health effects, environmental
degradation, transport, and disposal of dioxins.

The document responds to Section 122 of the Clean Air
Act as Amended August 1977, which requires the Admini-
strator to decide whether atmospheric emissions of
71
-------
polycycHc organic matter (POM) potentially endanger
public health. This document reviews POM data on
chemical and physical properties, atmospheric forms,
atmospheric fate and transport, measurement techniques,
ambient levels, toxicology, occupational health, and
epidemiology. Polycycllc aromatic hydrocarbons
(PAH's), such as the carcinogen benzo(a)pyrene (BaP),
and their neutral nitrogen analogs are the two POM
chemical groups occurring most frequently in ambient
air. The major environmental sources of POM's appear
to be the combustion or pyrolysis of materials contain-
ing carbon and hydrogen. There is general agreement
that POM compounds are associated with suspended
particulate matter from both mobile and stationary
sources, principally resplrable particles. Available
monitoring data suggest that many POM compounds asso-
ciated with particulate matter probably are stable in
ambient air for several days. The major health concern
over exposure to POM's 1s their carcinogenicity POM's
gain ready access to the body's circulation either by
inhalation, ingestion, or skin contact, Although it
cannot be stated unequivocalty that any POM's are human
carcinogens, several of these compounds are among the
more potential animal carcinogens known.

Feasibility of Developing Source Sampling Methods for
Asbestos Emissions

W. M. Henry, et al.
Apr 82, 70p, EPA-600/3-82-008
Abstract: The objective of this program was to deter-
mine the feasibility of developing methods for sampling
asbestos in the emissions of major asbestos sources:
(1) ore production and taconite production; (2)
asbestos-cement production, (3) asbestos felt and paper
production, and (4) the production of asbestos-
containing friction materials. 'Potential sampling
methods must provide samples compatible with the
provisional analysis methods using electron microscopy
(U.S. EPA Report No. 600/2-77-178). Two general
criteria of source sampling methods were identified as:
(1) the sampling method must be capable of collecting a
representative sample and (2) the asbestos emissions
must be collected In such a manner that they can be
analyzed by the provisional analytical method. Con-
current investigations of potential emissions In the
industries and of current knowledge of sampling fibers
were undertaken to assess the feasibility of meeting
the flrt criterion. The industry survey revealed that
asbestos emissions can be divided into two classes:
stack and fugitive. With respect to the second
criterion, it is not feasible to undertake a methods
development program for strict compatibility with the
recoimended procedure of the provisional analytical
method. However, methods development programs are
feasible 1f the sampling method 1s to be compatible
with the alternative procedures of the provisional
method or general electron microscopy.

The results of laboratory and field investigations of
experimental sampling systems intended to collect high-
molecular-weight organic compounds from flue gases in
coal-fired power plants are presented. The most
promising sampling device was a solid sorbent cartridge
inserted directly Into the flue gas stream and cooled
to a temperature just above the dew point by a forced
flow of external ambient air. Although certain sorbent
materials were shown to be partially effective for the
collection of vapors of polynuclear aromatic hydro-
carbons at temperatures of SO to 60C, no completely
satisfactory sorbent was found. Ambersorb XE-340, a
nonpoplar carbonaceous sorbent, was the most satis-
factory of several organic and inorganic sorbent
materials tried, but its usefulness was limited by the
presence of contaminants that could not be removed.
The simplicity of the sampling system and the results
obtained suggest that continuing efforts should be made
to find a better sorbent material.

A simple input-output model for a two phase flow system

atmospheric contaminants. The model fit laboratory
data acceptably and relationships with previous
approaches were stated. Chromatographic retention
volumes are used in this model which provides a means
of scaling adsorbent bed dimensions and flow rates to
preserve desired output characteristics. Suggestions
are made about how to use the model for rational
sampling design when quantitative information is
needed. Practical limitations of field operations and
fundamental knowledge and the need to evaluate every
datum lead to practical suggestions for sampling. At
least two samples collected simultaneously but at very
different flow rates are suggested as necessary for
quantitative work.

Carbon fibers are highly conductive, lightweight and of
small dimensions. When released as emissions from
production, manufacturing, processing and disposal
sources they may become airborne and disperse over wide
areas. If they settle onto electronic or electrical
components they can cause malfunctions and damage due
to their high electrical conductivity. This research
program was initiated to develop techniques to identify
and measure carbon fiber concentrations emitted from
manufacturing, processing, fabricating and incinerating
sources. Its overall objective was to develop a
measurement method useful to support possible emission
regulatory actions. The method was tested on samples
collected from various stationary emission sources and
from a pilot-scale in-house incineration facility. The
results of these emission measurements are reported.

Sampling Air for Gaseous Organic Chemicals Using Solid
Adsorbents Applications to Tenax
EPA, Research Triangle Park, NC, EMSL
F. Walling, et al.
Aug 82, 38p, EPA-600/4-82-059
A simple input-output model for a two phase flow system
with fixed bed was applied to Tenax adsorption of
atmospheric contaminants. The model fit laboratory
data acceptably and relationships with previous
approaches were stated. Chromatographic retention
volumes are used in this model which provides a means
of scaling adsorbent bed dimensions and flow rates to
preserve desired output characteristics. Suggestions
are made about how to use the model for rational
sampling design when quantitative information is
needed. Practical limitations of field operations and
fundamental knowledge and the need to evaluate every
datum lead to practical suggestions for sampling. At
least two samples collected simultaneously but at very
different flow rates are suggested as necessary for
quantitative work.

Carbon fibers are highly conductive, lightweight and of
small dimensions. When released as emissions from
production, manufacturing, processing and disposal
sources they may become airborne and disperse over wide
areas. If they settle onto electronic or electrical
components they can cause malfunctions and damage due
to their high electrical conductivity. This research
program was initiated to develop techniques to identify
and measure carbon fiber concentrations emitted from
manufacturing, processing, fabricating and incinerating
sources. Its overall objective was to develop a
measurement method useful to support possible emission
regulatory actions. The method was tested on samples
collected from various stationary emission sources and
from a pilot-scale in-house incineration facility. The
results of these emission measurements are reported.

The Office of Health and Environmental Assessment, in
consultation with an Agency Work Group, has prepared

this Health Assessment on Carbon Tetrachloride to serve
as a "Source Document" for Agency-wiae use. Originally
the health assessment was developed for use by the
Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards; however,
at the request of the Agency Work Group on Solvents,
the assessment scope was expanded to address multimedia
aspects. This assessment will help insure consistency
in the Agency's consideration of the relevant scienti-
fic health data associated with carbon tetrachloride.
In the development of the assessment document, the
scientific literature has been inventoried, key studies
have been evaluated and summary/conclusions have been
prepared so that the chemical's toxicity and related
characteristics are qualitatively identified. Observed
effect levels and dose-response relationships are
discussed, where appropriate, so that the nature of the
adverse health responses are placed in perspective with
observed environmental levels.

absorption technique called tunable atomic line
molecular spectroscopy (TALMS) to the detection of a
variety of volatile organic molecules of concern to the
Environmental Protection Agency. During the first
phase of the study a prototype instrument was built and
tested to demonstrate the detection of both small
(i.e., less than four atoms) and complex molecules.
During the second phase a more compact instrument was
constructed for delivery to EPA, Research Triangle
Park, NC before January, 1982. This second instrument
was optimized for the detection of the more complex
organic molecules benzene and chlorobenzene.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the severity
of inorganic arsenic emissions from seven source
categories including primary copper, lead, and zinc
smelting, cotton ginning, glass manufacturing, and
arsenic chemical manufacturing. The magnitude of
arsenic emissions from each source category were
quantified and control systems were investigated to
determine baseline and estimated best control (EEC) for
arsenic. The environmental, energy, and economic costs
of implementing EBC, in source categories where it is
not being used, were estimated. Two source categories,
primary lead smelting and arsenic chemical manufac-
turing, were determined to have EBC in place as a
result of compliance with existing regulations. The
nurber of people exposed to arsenic from each of the
source categories will be assessed separately by EPA
us'ng emissions and stack data generated in this study.
The physical and chemical characteristics of arsenic
ant1 their impact on the control of arsenic emissions
frorc the source categories were also examined.

Analytical methods were refined and applied to the
ambient analysis of 44 organic chemicals, many of which
are bacterial mutagens or suspected carcinogens. On-
site field collection programs, based on single site
studies of 9 to 11 days duration each, were conducted
in 10 U.S. cities. Field studies were performed with
an instrumented mobile laboratory. A round-the-clock
measurement schedule was followed at all sites. The
field measurements allowed a determination of atmo-
spheric concentrations, variabilities, and mean diurnal
behaviors of the chemicals. The data analyzed relative
to theoretically estimated removal rates. Typical
diurnal profiles show highest concentrations of the
primary pollutants during night time or early morning
hours, with minimum concentrations in the afternoon
hours. Chemistry plays only a nominal role in defining
this diurnal behavior in most cases. Except for
aromatic hydrocarbons and aldehydes, average concentra-
tions of the measured species were in the 0- to 5-ppb

range. The average concentration range observed for
aromatics and aldehydes was 0- to 20-ppb.

The Inhalation Exposure Methodology (IEM) is a system
of computer programs that estimates atmospheric trans-
port of and population exposure to airborne pollutants.
This paper discusses the capabilities of IEM and gives
detailed instructions for executing the automated,
interactive version of IEM that 1s installed on the IBM
system at the National Computer Center, Research
Triangle Park, North Carolina. This version uses eight
execute (EXEC) programs to assist the user In preparing
needed Input data files, to direct the flow of input
and output data, and to submit the computer programs
for execution. Wind speed and direction data contained
in Stability Array (STAR) meteorological data files are
accessed, prepared, and Input to the Industrial Source
Complex, Long Term (ISCLT) Disperson Model. This model
is then employed to calculate annual-average ground-
level air concentrations of pollutants at specified
points. These concentrations and site-specific popula-
tion data are combined by the Concentration-Exposure
Program (CONEX) to provide estimates of population
exposures to pollutants. All steps required to execute
the interactive version of IEM are explained and
demonstrated with the aid of a sample problem.

Significant quantities of organic chemicals are releas-
ed into the ambient environment as a necessary outcome
of day-to-day human activities. In recent years, it
has become evident that many of these chemicals are
toxic at concentrations significantly higher than those
found in the ambient atmosphere. The present study is
designed to focus on the abundance of gaseous organic
chemicals in the ambient environment with special
emphasis on those that are or may be hazardous. The
term "hazardous organic chemicals" (HOCs) used here is
not intended to imply that a proven human health hazard
exists. In most cases toxicity studies are incomplete
and entail extrapolation of animal data to humans.
Over the years many studies have been conducted to
characterize the concentrations of a wide range of
potentially hazardous gaseous organic chemicals. This
study, for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA), was an attempt to study their usefulness and to
integrate them into a useful and cohesive document with
a single, coherent data base that would readily indi-

In this study, ambient acrylonitrile (AN) levels were
measured in the vicinity of two major AN user facilities
and two major AN production facilities. Approximately
100 duplicate air samples were collected on charcoal
sorption tubes at different locations at or beyond the
fenceline of each plant and analyzed by gas chromato-
graphy. The data obtained showed a definite presence
of AN downwind of each plant. The levels found, which
varied from a high of 130 parts per billion (ppb) to
trace amounts (below 2.5 ppb) varied considerably
depending on the date, the sample location, and the
plant tested. The data shows higher levels of AN near
use facilities than near production facilities, but
factors such as distance from potential AN sources to
sampling points may have influenced the results.

The accuracy and precision of U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency Reference Method 23 was evaulated at
a trichloroethylene degreasing facility and an ethylene
dlchloride plant. The method consists of a procedure
for obtaining an integrated sample followed by gas
chromatographic analysis. This study identified a
number of conditions such as sunlight and sample volume
that may affect the performance of the Method. A
paired sampling technique was employed to obtain
Identical samples, from which the precision and variable
interactions could be determined. Certain results fell
outside the range of acceptable precision, especially
when mylar bags were employed. Modifications to the
method are suggested that specify that only Tedlar bags
be used for sampling, that incorporate an on-site
technique for leak detection, and that discontinue the
procedure for moisture removal. With these modifica-
tions, Reference Method 23 was fully validated as
acceptable for field use.

earlier document was prepared, a rate inhalation
Carcinogenicity study has been reported and several
epidemiology and mutagenicity papers have been publish-
ed. This draft document tentatively concludes that:
(1) there is evidence suggesting that cadmium and
certain cadmium compounds are weakly mutagenic; (2)
cadmium chloride aerosol induces lung cancer in rats;
(3) injected cadmium salts induce injection site
sarcomas and testicular tumors in both mice and rats;
(4) there is limited epldemiologic evidence that
inhaled cadmium induces prostate and and/or lung caner
in highly exposed workers; (5) there is no evidence
that cadmium is carcinogenic via ingestion, which is a
major route of human exposure, and the upper-limit of
potency via ingestion is at least 200 times less than
via inhalation.

The report gives results of a preliminary environmental
evaluation and assessment of formcoking. The work is
based on readily available literature sources, a plant
visit, formcoke plant proposal and feasibility study
data, and discussions with engineers and operators
involved with formcoking. Material balances, calcula-
tions, and engineering judgment were used to convert
existing data and information into a form that can be
used to compare environmental discharges between form-
coking and conventional by-product coking. Comparison
results are presented. The lack of environmental data
on formcoking is noted.

The report gives results of sampling and analysis at
five ferroalloy plants to determine the amounts of par-
ti cu la tes and organics generated during manufacture of
several products, the effect of furnace type on the
amounts generated, and the amounts of these materials
escaping to the environment. Samples were also taken
of the influent to and effluent from two plant waste-
water treatment systems and groundwater samples around
the waste disposal area of one plant. More organics
are emitted to the atmosphere than particulates. Open
furnaces emit as much as or more organics to the
atmosphere than do -semi-enclosed furnaces (kg/MW-hr
basis).

Health Assessment Document for Toluene

Aug 83, 4Z7p, EPA-600/8-82-008F
The health effect of primary concern with regard to
exposures of humans to toluene is dysfunction of the
central nervous system (CNS). Occupational exposures
in the range of 200 to 1,500 ppm have elicited dose-
related CNS alternations. Although myelotoxicity was
previously attributed to toluene, recent evidence
indicated that toluene is not toxic to the blood or
bone marrow; myelotoxic effects are considered to have
been the result of concurrent exposure to benzene.
Available evidence is inadequate for assessing the
carcinogenic potential of toluene. Although a 24-month
inhalation exposure of rates to 300 ppm did not produce
any positive carcinogenic effects, various design
deficiencies precluded the usefulness of this study in
assessing carcinogenic potential. Toluene has been
shown to be non-mutagenic in a battery of microbial,
mammalian cell, and whole organism test systems.
Animal exposure studies suggest that toluene has low
teratogenic potential. However, embryotoxicity has
been shown to be an endpoint of concern. The reproduc-
tive effects of toluene is a category recommended for
additional research. Based on available exposure
estimates, the only group at possible high risk are
workers exposed at or near the threshold limit value
(100 ppm).

Sep 83, 230p
EPA commissioned Systems Applications, Inc. (SAI) to
estimate, on a nationwide basis, public exposure to
atmospheric concentrations of some forty chemicals.
The purpose of the study was to provide EPA with
information that would be helpful for determining which
of the chemicals to study in more detail and in what
order. The emphasis was on estimates that would
support rough relative comparisons among the chemicals.
There was no intent to define, by a scientifically
defensible methodology, actual public exposure and
actual ambient air concentrations; the purpose did not
warrant the very heavy expenditure of funds that would
be needed to carry out such a project. The study made
free use of such techniques as algorithms for estimating
emissions rather than actual emissions data, constructed
plant locations rather than actual plant locations,
simplified dispersion modeling to estimate ambient air
concentrations, and a constructed 'population1 file
that relied on extrapolation of 1970 Bureau of Census
data on where people lived.

many urban and nonurban locations within the United
States. The data in this publication were collected
with the generous support of the many state and local
air pollution control agencies that operate the National
Air Surveillance Network stations. Also, the ten EPA
Regional Offices have participated in this program
since 1973 by sending weighted high volume filters to
the centralized laboratory for analysis. This report
summarizes the network data for metals determined from
high volume samples collected from 1977 through 1979.
Concentration values are presented in the form of
cumulative frequency distributions. Arithmetic and

Exhaust Emissions from a Diesel Engine

Nov 83, 113p, EPA-600/3-83-106
Studies were performed using (1) Diesel particles
collected from the undiluted exhaust of a single-
cylinder engine, operated at constant speed and load,
using a binary pure hydrocarbon fuel with air or gas
mixture oxiders, and (2) Diesel particles collected
from the diluted exhaust of a multlcylinder engine
operated on a commercial fuel. The physlcochemical
82
-------
properties of the particles were determined by static
and dynamic methods. The organic adsorbate was
characterized by chromatographic and mass spectrometric
procedures and by microbial testing protocols. Elec-
tron paramagnetic personance spectrometry and high
performance liquid chromatography were used to study
reactivity of the organic adsorbates. The particles
collected from the exhaust of Diesel engines operated
on binary pure hydrocarbons and on commercial fuels
contained similar compounds in the organic adsorbates.
The nitrogen in these compounds is derived mainly from
the oxidlzer (Air). The microbial mutagenic activities
of the organic adsorbates found on the surface of both
types of Diesel particles are comparable. These
microbial mutagenic activities can be attributed mainly
to the presence of nitrated polynuclear aromatic hydro-
carbons.

\Mnyl1dene chloride is a highly reactive, flammable,
clear colorless liquid. In the absence of chemical
inhibitors, it can produce violently explosive, complex
peroxides. The estimated, ambient air level of vinyli-
dene chloride in urban-suburban areas of the United
States is 20ng/m . The median concentration (14 ug/nr)
for ambient air at point sources of emission is sub-
stantially higher. Following oral or inhalation
exposure, mammals readily absorb vinylidene chloride.
Hetabolities of vinylidene chloride, formed in the
liver, produce toxic lesions in the liver and kidneys
(the target organs), with inhibitors of metabolism
providing protection from vinylidene chloride toxicity.
The acute hepatotoxicity of vinylidene chloride is
greater than that of any other chloroethylene. Vinyli-
dene chloride is a mutagen in the Ames assay in the
presence of a metabolic activation system. Kidney
tumors, produced in male Swiss mice, appear to be a
strain-specific response and may be produced by a
non-specific mechanism as a result of severe kidney
toxicity and accompanying compensatory growth. Apply-
ing the International Agency for Research in Cancer's
(lARC's) criteria for animal studies, the evidence
currently available suggesting the carcinogenidty of
vinylidene chloride 1s limited and insufficient to
determine its human carcinogenic potential.

The report gives results of an evaluation, in coopera-
tion with the State of Vermont's Agency of Environmental
Conservation, of emissions generated by antracite and
bituminous coal used for residential heating. A resi-
dential coal stove was operated with both coals, while
comparing high and low burn rate operations. A second
stove, a commercial stove designed for wood burning but
modified by the manufacturer for coal, was also tested
with both coals. Combustion gases were collected by
two techniques: evacuated glass bulbs and a Modified
Method 5 sampling train. Volatile species were analyzed
by direct gas mass spectrometry and by gas chromato-
graphy using selective detectors. Polynuclear aromatic
hydrocarbons (PAHs) were analyzed by high resolution
gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. High levels of
particulates, total organics, and sulfur dioxide were
found in the emissions from bituminous coal combustion
in a residential coal stove. High PAH emissions were
found with both bituminous and anthracite combustion.
The stove converted from wood to coal burning proved to
be highly polluting, especially when used with
bituminous coal.

aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and chlorinated aromatic
compounds, including polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs),
polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs), and poly-
chlorinated di-benzofurans (PCDFs). Of particular
interest is 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD).

Acute acrylonitrile intoxication in humans, like many
volatile organic compounds, results in irritation of
the eyes and nose, weakness, labored breathing, dizzi-
ness, impaired judgment, cyanosis, nausea, and convul-
sions. Unlike many of these other organics, acrylo-
nitrile causes severe burns upon contact with the
liquid chemical. Some significant functional disorders
84
-------
of the liver and kidney are observed under subchronic
exposure conditions; while chronic exposure results in
signs (unhealthy appearance, weight loss and early
death) that may be related to the low food and water
consumption resulting from the unpleasant taste of
acrylonitrile in water. Pathological changes in rats
believed to be treatment related include hyperplasia
and hyperkeratosis of the squamous cells in the brain
and mammary gland hyperplasia 1n females. The present
data base from human and toxicologic studies provides
enough evidence such that the International Agency for
Research on Cancer (IARC) has characterized acrylo-
nitrile as an animal carcinogen and a likely human
carcinogen. Unlike the animal bioassay data, the human
data base does not unequivocally demonstrate a causal
association.

Dec 83, 222p, EPA-600/8-82-005B
Tetrachloroethylene (PCE) is a volatile solvent with
important commercial applications. It has been detected
in the ambient air of a variety of urban and non-urban
areas of the United States. It has less freouently
been detected in water but has been monitored generally
at levels of 1 ppb or less. The lowest-observed-
adverse-effect-level, based on central nervous system
dysfunction, is about 100 ppm (678 mg/cu m). Toxicity
testing 1n experimental animals, coupled with limited
human data, suggests that long-term exposure of humans
to ambient levels of PCE is not likely to represent a
health concern. At the current time, the teratogenic
potential of PCE for humans is unknown; the mammalian
animal tests performed to date do not indicate any
significant teratogenic potential. Although PCE
85
-------
epoxide has been found to be positive with respect to
mutagenicity in bacterial systems, the data on pure PCE
suggest that if it is mutagenic, it is a weak mutagen.
PCE has been demonstrated to induce malignant tumors of
the liver in mice. This constitutes limited evidence
that PCE may be carcinogenic in humans. Because
existing epidemiologic data for PCE is inconclusive,
the overall ranking according to the criteria of the
International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC)
would suggest that PCE is possibly carcinogenic in
humans.

The purpose of this short-term project was to determine
the levels of nitric oxide (NO), nitrogen dioxide (N02),
and carbon monoxide (CO) in the off-gases from the open
burning of explosives in excess air. The ultimate goal
is to reduce the level of N0(x), CO, and particulates
emitted during the destruction of surplus, waste, and
off-spec, explosives. Previous work (DOE) showed that
a gravel/sand filter in the roof of a bunker reduced
the level of particulates emitted during excess air
combustion of propellants (only limited N0(x) or CO
measurements were reported). The project demonstrated
that the filter is effective in partially eliminating
NO and CO emissions, but that additional work, including
the incorporation of catalysts in the bed and the intro-
duction of NO-control gases (e.g. NH3), should be
undertaken.

Dichloromethane (DCM) is a solvent widely used for a
variety of purposes. It has been detected in the
ambient air of urban and non-urban areas of the United
States and also in natural and municipal waters. The
weight of available evidence indicates that adverse
toxicologic effects (other than carcinogenlcity and
mutagenicity) in humans are unlikely to occur at ambient
air and water levels found or expected in the general
environment. Available evidence suggests that the
teratogenic potential of DCM is capable of causing gene
mutations and has the potential to cause such effects
in exposed human cells. The weight of evidence for
carcinogenicity in animals is limited, according to the
criteria of the International Agency for Research on
Cancer (IARC). However, when the absence of epidemic-
logical evidence is considered, the overall evaluation
of DCM, according to IARC criteria, is that it is a
Group 3 chemical in that it cannot be classified as to
its carcinogenic potential for humans.

Trlchloroethylene (TCI) Is a solvent widely used In the
industrial degreasing of metals. It has been detected
in the ambient air of a variety of urban and non-urban
areas of the United States and also, in natural and
municipal waters. The weight of available evidence
obtained from both animal and human data suggests that
long-term exposure to environmental levels of TCI poses
no serious health concern to the general population.
No teratogenic potential has been demonstrated for TCI
in studies conducted to date with experimental animals.
With respect to the mutagenic potential of TCI, the
data on pure TCI do not allow a conclusion to be drawn.
If TCI is mutagenic, the available data suggest it
would be a very weak, indirect mutagen. Based on
available animal cancer data, the classification of TCI
under the criteria of the International Agency for
Research on Cancer (IARC) could either be 'sufficient'
or 'limited.' Because there are no adequate epidemio-
logic data, the overall ranking of TCI would place it
in a category in which it would be a probable human
carcinogen or one that cannot be classified as to its
carcinogenicity.

Carcinogen Assessment of Coke Oven Emissions

Coke oven workers in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania and
at 10 non-Allegheny County coke plants in the United
States and Canada were found to be at an excess risk of
mortality from cancer of all sites and from cancer of
the lungs, bronchus, trachea, kidney, and prostate. An
important finding of this study was the dose-response
found by both length of exposure and intensity of
exposure (top or side of the ovens) for mortality from
cancer of the lungs, bronchus, and trachea. A study of
Japanese coke oven workers also found them to be at an
excess risk of lung cancer mortality. British studies
of cancer mortality in coke oven workers have generally
been negative, but there were weaknesses in these
studies. Coke oven emissions produce positive results
in mutagenicity studies. Coal tar, a condensate of
coke oven emissions, and various constituents of coke
oven emissions have been found to be positive in both
mutagenicity and animal carcinogenicity studies.

A critical literature review of the state of the art
for speciation of arsenic, chromium, manganese, and
nickel in atmospheric samples was performed. Techniques
for distinguishing the compound forms and valence
states of these metals were critically assessed. Three
basic types of speciation procedures were identified:
(a) direct analysis of partlculate matter, (b) specia-
tion of inorganic compounds after dissolution, and (c)
sequential or selective extraction. Direct analysis
techniques offer the possibility of determining specific
compounds but are limited in sensitivity. The latter
two techniques cannot determine specific inorganic
compounds because of the inclusion of a dissolution
step. However, such techniques may give useful infor-
mation and are more generally applicable than direct
analysis techniques. In a few cases (e.g., arsine),
compounds may exist in the gas phase and can therefore
be readily distinguished from other compound forms of
the element.

Tunable Atomic Line Molecular Spectroscopy (TALMS) is a
high resolution, differential absorption technique used
in the ultraviolet region. Under Interagency Agree-
ments EPA-80-D-X1014 and AD-89-F-2A008 with Lawrence
Berkeley Laboratory, two prototype TALMS instruments
were designed, constructed, and delivered to the U.S.
EPA at Research Triangle Park, North Carolina. TALMS I
was a large laboratory instrument designed to demon-
strate the feasibility of TALMS detection of toxic
organic compounds. TALMS II was a more compact monitor
for benzene designed for possible field applications.
Both instruments were evaluated in the laboratory for
performance characteristics In the analysis of benzene
using the 253.7 nm mercury line. The tests Included
detection limit, precision, effect of temperature
(TALMS I), effect of pressure (TALMS II), and Inter-
ferences from organic compounds other than benzene.
The prototype instruments evaluated can detect benzene
precisely above the detection limit of 6 mlcrogram.
The apparent interferences from toluene and pyridine
are relatively small and may be artifacts which can be
eliminated with Improvements 1n electronic signal
processing. It was recommended that changes to the
sample cell and electronics be made to Improve the
detection limit and that extension of the capabilities
of TALMS to other organic compounds be made.

Fluorescence, phosphorescence, and heavy-metal acti-
vated room temperature phosphorescence spectra were
obtained for ten polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH)
reference compounds individually and in mixtures on
quartz plates and partlculate matter. The results
Indicate that multicomponent analysis of PAHs on air-
borne particulate matter may be possible with the
development of appropriate multicomponent spectral
deconvolution procedures. The direct analysis approach
in combination with the use of solvent extraction
followed by fluorescence analysis can provide a rapid
means of analysis for PAHs both within and on the
surface of partlculate matter. Direct phosphorescence
was too weak to be useful at 5-10 micrograms/g levels
found in many types of partlculate samples. Heavy-
metal activated room-temperature phosphorescence
appears more sensitive to matrix and substrate effects
and less amenable to multicomponent analysis than
fluorescence. The fluorescence spectrum of benzo(a)-
pyrene was found to be affected by exposure to low
levels of ozone. However, the fluorescence spectrum
retains characteristic features that enable Identifica-
tion of the benzo(a)pyrene.

directed at the health effects from exposure to HEX.
This peer-reviewed document contains information on HEX
covering toxicity, environmental fate and transport,
aquatic effects, mutagenicity, epidemiology, terato-
genicity and other health effects data. The data base
1s neither extensive nor adequate for assessing the
carcinogenicity or long-term health effects of acute or

exposure (the duration times the intensity) and the
underlying risk of lung cancer in the absence of expo-
sure. The risk of death from mesothelioma appears to
be proportional to the cumulative exposure to asbestos
in a given period. Animal studies confirm the huiran
epidemiological results. All major asbestos varieties
produce lung cancer and mesothelioma with only limited
differences in carcinogenic potency. Some measurements
demonstrate that significant asbestos exposure, exceed-
ing 100 times the background, occurs to individuals in
non-occupational environments. Currently, the most
important of these non-occupational exposures is from
the release of fibers from asbestos-containing

reported. The weight of available evidence obtained
from human and animal data suggest that long-term
exposure to environmental levels of MC poses no serious
health concern to the general population. No tetrato-
genic potential has been demonstrated for MC in studies
conducted to date in rodent species. Available data
are inadequate for reaching firm conclusions about its
mutagemc potential in humans. Because of the limited
usefulness of the animal bioassays conducted to date,
it is not possible to classify MC in regard to its

Health Assessment Document for Inorganic Arsenic

Inorganic arsenic, predominantly the tri- and pentava-
lent forms, is emitted to the environment primarily
through smelting activity, biocide use and glass
manufacturing. Monitoring data indicate a concentra-
tion of equal to or less than 0.1 microgram/cu m for
most locations. Major routes of absorption of inorganic
arsenic In the general population are inhalation and
ingestlon. Inhaled inorganic arsenic deposited in the
lungs is eventually absorbed. Most Ingested soluble
inorganic arsenic is absorbed, whereas insoluble forms
pass through the gastrointestinal tract with negligible
absorption. Inorganic arsenic metabolism in man is
complicated by biotransformation processes which include
the methylation and oxidation-reduction interconversion
of inorganic arsenic. Long-term accumulation of inor-
ganic arsenic does not generally occur in physiologically
active compartments in the body; renal clearance appears
89
-------
to be the major route of excretion of absorbed inorganic
arsenic. Acute symptoms of inorganic arsenic poisoning
Include severe gastrointestinal damage, facial edema,
cardiovascular reactions, peripheral nervous system
disturbances, and hematopoietic system effects. General
population concerns arising from long-term exposures to
moderate levels of Inorganic arsenic include respiratory
tract cancer, skin cancer, non-cancerous skin lesions,
peripheral neuropathologlcal effects and cardiovascular
effects. There appears to be a nutritional requirement
for low levels of inorganic arsenic 1n certain experi-
mental animals; however, this requirement has not yet
been established in man.

Ethylene Dichloride (EDC), a clear, colorless volatile
liquid, is principally emitted to the environment
during manufacturing. Monitoring data, including
ambient urban areas, indicate a concentration of equal
to or less than 0.5 ppb for most locations. EDC is
rapidly absorbed, metabolized, and eliminated. Unmeta-
bolized EDC 1s eliminated almost exclusively via the
lungs. In humans the symptoms of acute toxicity from
repeated exposures exceeding 60 ppm are irritation of
the respiratory tract and eyes and CNS depression.
According to available evidence EDC does not adversely
affect the reproductive or development process in
animals except at maternally toxic levels. Additional
human epidemiologic studies are needed to establish
conclusively that EDC is not a teratogen and does not
cause adverse reproductive effects. Positive responses
in different text systems indicate that EDC is a weak,
direct-acting mutagen; however, several of its metabo-
lities, formed in animals, are more potent mutagens
than EDC. As a carcinogen, EDC induces tumors in rats
and mice by various routes of exposure (gavage, intra-
peritoneally, dermally). However, lifetime inhalation
exposure conditions did not produce tumors in rats or
mice. Results from animal carcinogen studies, when
considered with the positive evidence of mutagemcity
and the presence of reactive metabolities and covalent
bonding to DNA, suggest that EDC is a potential human
carcinogen.

The largest single use of ethylene oxide is an inter-
mediate in the synthesis of ethylene glycol. However,
small amounts of this epoxide are used as a sterilant
or pesticide in commodities, Pharmaceuticals, medical
devices, tobacco, and other items, representing a
considerable potential for human exposure. The pharma-
cokinetics of ethylene oxide have not been studied
extensively. While no studies found in the literature
searched concerned the absorption of this chemical,
toxicity data suggest that exposure to ethylene oxide in
humans results in symptoms of headache, vomiting,
dyspnea, and diarrhea. Subacute and chronic effects are
not well documented. Data indicate that many different
types of genetic damage may be induced following exposure
to ethylene oxide. It was found to be mutagenic in the
Ames Salmonella assay to Bacillus subtilis and to
Drosophilia melanogaster, as well as in cultured mamma-
lian cell and assay systems. The alkylating and
mutagenic properties of ethylene oxide are sufficient
causes of concern about its potential carcinogenicity.
Though there are no definitive, epidemiologic studies,
the data are consistent with the animal data in that
there seems to be a strong association between an
increased risk of cancer, especially leukemia, and
prolonged Inhalation exposure to ethylene oxide.

A high performance passive dosimeter has been developed
and evaluated as a monitor for volatile organics in
ambient air and for short-term, low-level personal
monitoring applications. The dosimeter design was
dictated by three major areas of concern: (1) diffusive
mass transport considerations; (2) sorbent selection,
and (3) chemical quantitation of the collected compounds,
which intimately involves desorption procedures of the
passive device.

EPA, Cincinnati, OH, ECAO
May 84, 592p, EPA-600/8-84-014A
Dioxins are a class of compounds that contain the
d1benzo-p-dioxin nucleus. In the chlorinated dioxlns,
the dibenzo-p-dioxin nucleus Is substituted with
chlorine at different positions of the fused benzene
rings. Depending on the number and position of
chlorine substitution, 75 congeners are possible for
the chlorinated dioxins. This document deals with the
most toxic chlorinated dfoxins, namely, 2,3,7,8-tetra-
chloro-. 1,2,3,7,8-penta-chloro-, 1,2,3,6,7,8-hexa-
chloro-, and 1,2,3,7,8,9-hexachlor-odlbenzo-p-dioxon.
Of these four congeners, the 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodlbenzo-
p-diox1n has been studied extensively. This compound
1s often described in both popular and technical
literature as 'TCDD' or simply 'dloxin1. A few docu-
ments exist at the present time that deal with selected
aspects of polychlorlnated d1benzo-p-d1oxins in the
environmental media. This document has been prepared
to provide a comprehensive multi-media assessment of
the analytical methodologies, environmental levels and
ecological and health effects of the four chlorinated
dioxins mentioned above.

Apr 84, 626p, EPA-600/8-84-015A
This document summarizes the current knowledge of the
effects of exposure to the chlorinated benzenes on
human health. The chlorinated benzenes are persistent
to chemical and biological degradation and tend to
accumulate in liquid-containing tissues of animals and
humans. The ubiquitous environmental distribution of
the chlorinated benzenes and their bioconcentration in
humans are a basis for concern over the consequences of
chronic exposure to human health. The rationale for
structuring this document is based primarily on two
major Issues, exposure and response. The first portion
of the document is devoted to the chlorinated benzenes
in the environment: physical and chemical properties,
the monitoring of the chlorinated benzenes in various
media, natural and human-made sources, the transport
and distribution of the chlorinated benzenes within
environmental media, and the levels of exposure. The
second part is devoted to biological responses in
laboratory animals and humans including metabolism,
pharmacokinetics, as well as the toxicological effects
cf the chlorinated benzenes.

Health Assessment Document for Manganese

The document evaluates data on occurrence, sources, and
transport of manganese in the environment and data on
metabolism, pharmacokinetics, laboratory toxicological
and epidemiologic studies to determine the nature and
dose response relationship of potential health effects
on humans. Nationwide air sampling data indicate that
mean manganese concentrations have declined from 0.11
mlcrograms per cu. m. in 1953-1957 to 0.033 micrograms
per cu. m. in 1982. The effects of major concern to
humans exposed to manganese are on neurological and on
pulmonary function. The CNS effects have been observed
in humans at exposure levels above 5 mg/cu. m. and are
incapacitating and generally irreversible. Data are
equivocal between 1 and 5 mg/cu. m. but suggest
decreased prevalence. There are no reports of these
effects below 0.3 mg/cu. m. exposure. Pneumonia and
chronic bronchitis occur at levels which are associated
with neurological effects. Reduced lung function has
been reported in children exposed to an estimated 3-11
mlcrograms per cu. m. from emission of a ferromanganese
plant. However, studies of workers exposed to 40 micro-
grams per cu. m. did not show respiratory symptoms.
Animal studies qualitatively support pulmonary effects
of manganese exposure. Respiratory symptoms occur at
lower levels than neurological symptoms and are there-
fore considered to be the critical effect based on
available data.

Table 1 is a list of 37 priority chemicals under assess-
ment as potential carcinogens (Type A pollutants),
while Table 2 lists 50 additional chemicals that are
under assessment (Type B pollutants). Of the 37 pollu-
tants listed in Table 1, data were obtained on 24
pollutants. This compares with finding Information on
only 17 of the 50 additional chemicals. In addition to
the above pollutants, arsenic and benzene are summarized
in Attachment A. Emphasis has been placed on obtaining
long-term averages to match the concern with chronic
long-term exposure to human populations to these pollu-
tants. A long-term averaging time may be appropriate
for known and suspected carcinogens depending on the
compounds ability to induce significant health impacts.

for comments. This notice announces reopening of public
comment period for proposed national emission standards
for inorganic arsenic used in glass manufacturing
plants. Data received since proposal of the standard
indicate that more vapor phase inorganic arsenic
emissions may be occurring from furnaces producing soda-
lime glass than from furnaces producing other types of
glass. EPA is requesting comments on three regulatory
options for soda-lime furnaces. EPA is also soliciting
comments on a possible revision to the zero production
rate offsets.

CANCER RISK ASSESSMENTS
Cancer risk assessments have been prepared for the chemicals listed
below. These assessments were prepared by the Carcinogen Assessment Group
located in the EPA Office of Health and Environmental Assessment. Most of
these assessments are preliminary in nature and many are several years old.
In the case of scientific reports such as these, updating is always
necessary and revisions could substantially alter the unit risk information.
Several risk assessments have been revised and updated and are contained in
the health assessment documents, which are listed in both the Document Type
Index and the Pollutant Name/Class Index. These revised and updated risk
assessments are indicated below with a single asterisk (*) and are available
from the National Technical Information Service (NTIS). Other risk
assessments, which are in the process of being revised and updated, are
indicated below with a double asterisk (**).
Single copies of the preliminary assessments (without an asterisk [*])
are available to state and local air pollution control agencies. Requests
should be made in writing to:
Technical Information Unit (RD-689)

CHEMICAL HAZARD INFORMATION PROFILES
A Chemical Hazard Information Profile (CHIP), which is prepared by
EPA's Office of Pesticides and Toxic Substances (OPTS), is a brief summary
of readily available information concerning the health and environmental
effects and potential exposure to a chemical. The OPTS chooses chemicals
for CHIP preparation on the basis of information indicating a potential for
adverse health or environmental effects along with evidence of significant
production or some type of exposure.
Information gathering for a CHIP is generally limited to a search of
secondary literature sources, which are identified by a search of automated
data bases and standard reference works. The OPTS also solicits unpublished
information about the selected chemicals from individuals and companies.
The search is not intended to be exhaustive, although in-depth searches on
specific topics may be done on a case-by-case basis.
In general, no attempt is made to evaluate or validate information at
this stage of assessment. Preparation of a CHIP is part of the first stage
in the OPTS chemical risk assessment process. The purpose of the CHIP is to
enable OPTS to make a tentative decision on an appropriate course of action
for the subject chemical and to identify and characterize problems that may
require more thorough investigation and evaluation.
A list of individual CHIPs by subject appears below. For more detailed
information as to all the chemical names and the CAS numbers that appear in
each CHIP, or to obtain a copy of any of the available CHIPs, contact:

through December 1984. An asterisk (*) indicates entries that are new to
this edition of the Bibliography. To update this list, consult the TSCA
Chemicals-in-Progress Bulletin, which notifies the public as new CHIPs are
