INTRODUCTION
/
Beryllium emission tests were performed on three sources located
at Speedring, Incorporated, in Cullman, Alabama, on August 10, 11, and
12, 1971.
Speedring is a beryllium metal and beryllium oxide ceramics
machining plant, and utilizes bag collectors for controlling beryllium
dust emissions. All three sources were tested at locations following
the control units. Two separate sampling trains were used to test each
source simultaneously. Two separate test runs were performed on the
North and South stacks, while only one test run was performed on the
middle stack.

SUMMARY OF TEST RESULTS
Summarized test results of stack parameters and beryllium
emission rates for all three plants tested are included in Tables 1
through 3. Complete stack parameter and beryllium emission test
results are included in the appendix. The tests indicate that the
Speedring Manufacturing Company emits 0.14 grams of beryllium per
8-hour day.

PROCESS DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
The Speedring Corporation is a machining facility engaged in
the production of high tolerance parts from specialty metals such as
beryllium and beryllium oxide. The machining operations performed in-
clude cutting, turning, grinding, drilling, ultra-sonic machining, and
other similar processes. A major portion of Speedring's operations are
performed wet, including ultra-sonic machining and most roughing operations
Each operating machine is serviced by one or more high velocity
hose pick-ups located at the tool point. Mhen a machine is not in ser-
vice, the vacuum hose to that specific machine is capped.
A table of pertinent information for the control equipment
preceeding the three emission points tested is included in Table 4. The
control equipment is listed under the exhaust system it services. A bag-
house controlled emissions from each of the stacks tested. The following
table lists the weights collected as determined by weighing the baghouse
catch.

Avg. Cone, (yg/m ) of By the Baghouse Preceeding
Be in Stack Gas The Stack Sampled
North 1.94 12.0
Middle 0.48 0
South 2.6 0
The zero weights recorded for the Middle and South baghouses can be
attributed to the type of operations they service. The majority of these
operations are performed wet while the operations serviced by the North
-------
baghouse are performed dry. The wet beryllium collected by the Middle
and South baghouses apparently is caked on the bag material and not easily
separated. The conclusions in this instance are that wet machining oper-
ations did not reduce stack emissions to a level lower than dry machin-
ing, and that weight collected from baghouses is not representative of
emissions.

LOCATION OF SAMPLING POINTS
Stack extensions were connected to the existing effluent stacks
from the baghouses so that the sampling locations would be approximately
eight stack diameters downstream from any disturbance.
Circular metal stack extensions were used on all sources tested
at Speedring Manufacturing Company, Inc. In all cases, the sampling
location was eight stack diameters downstream and two stack diameters
upstream from any disturbance. Figures 1 and 2 are typical diagrams
of the stack extensions used. The stack diagram shown in Figure 2
represents only the South Stack at Speedring. Figure 3 shows the select-
ed sampling points for all sampling.

SAMPLING AND ANALYTICAL PROCEDURES
All sources were tested in such a manner as to comply
with the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Proposed Reg-
ulations on National Emission Standards for Five Stationary Source'
Categories, published in the Federal Register (36 F.R. 5931,
March 31, 1971). A copy of these procedures from the August 20,
1971 Environment Reporter is presented in the appendix.
Specific testing procedures and modifications of the
prescribed EPA method are also included in the appendix.
All samples collected were sent to EPA personnel in
North Carolina for Beryllium analysis. Laboratory results are

COMPLETE SAMPLING PROCEDURES USED FOR BERYLLIUM SAMPLING
Prior to performing the actual beryllium particulate runs,
certain preliminary stack and stack gas parameters had to be deter-
mined for each source. This preliminary data included the average
temperature, velocity head, moisture content, and the stack diameter
at the point where the tests were being performed.
The stack gas temperature was determined by using bimetallic
thermometers and mercury bulb thermometers.
Velocity head measurements were determined across the stack
diameter by using a calibrated S-type pi tot tube with an inclined
manometer. This data was used to select the sampling nozzle diameter.
The approximate moisture content of the stack gas was determined
by the wet-bulb and dry-bulb thermometer technique since the stack
gas temperature was below 212°F.
The sampling traverse points were selected so that a represen-
tative sample could be extracted from the gas stream. The traverse
points for circular stacks were located in the center of the annular
equal area circles selected, which were dependent upon diameter and
duct diameters downstream from flow disturbances.
The basic modification of the EPA particulate sampling train for
beryllium sampling was the selection of filter media. Tests were
performed with the standard glass fiber filter and also with a type AA
millipore filter. A schematic diagram of the sampling train used is
shown in Figure A-l.
-20-
-------
The gases sampled were collected through the following train:
a stainless steel nozzle; a glass probe; a filter; two impingers with
100 ml of distilled water; one dry impinger; one impinger with 180
grams of silica gel (the second impinger had a standard tip, while
the first, third, and fourth impingers had modified tips with 1/2-inch
ID opening); a flexible sample line; an air-tight pump; a dry test
meter; and finally, a calibrated orifice.
At Speedring, Inc., two sampling trains were used simultaneously
at the fabricated effluent stack from the baghouse. One train contained
only a glass fiber filter and the other contained a mi Hi pore filter
backed up by a glass fiber filter.
Each test run consisted of sampling for a specified time at each
traverse point through either a vertical or a horizontal sampling
position for the first half of the test run, and then switching to the
other sampling position for the second half of the run. Duplicate
samples were taken from all sources except for one source. In all
cases, the train using a millipore filter was placed in the'vertical
position (port opening located at top of horizontal duct), starting
with the sampling point nearest the bottom of the duct. The sampling
train containing the glass fiber filter always started in the horizontal
position at the traverse point nearest the port opening. After gases
were withdrawn at the selected six points, the probes (still attached
to their respective trains) were switched from vertical to horizontal
positions and vice versa. Both trains were used simultaneously.

-------
Sample recovery for all beryllium tests was accomplished by the
following procedure:
1. Each filter was removed from its holder and placed
in Container No. 1 and sealed.
2. All sample-exposed surfaces prior to the filter were
washed with acetone and placed into Container No. 2
and sealed.
3. The volume of water in the first three impingers
was measured and then placed into Container No. 3.
The water rinsings of all sample-exposed surfaces
between the back half of the filter holder and
fourth impinger were also placed into Container
No. 3 prior to sealing.
4. The used silica gel from the fourth impinger was
transferred to the original tared container and
sealed.
5. All sample-exposed surfaces between the back half
of the filter holder and the fourth impinger were
rinsed with acetone and the rinsings were placed
into Container No. 5 and sealed.

2.1 Probe—Stainless steel or Pyrex l glass
sufficiently heated to prevent conder.sai.ion
and equipped with a filter to remove par-
tlculate matter.
2.2 Impingers—Two midget Implngers,
each with 30 ml. capacity, or equivalent.
2.3 Ice bath container—To condense
moisture In impingers.
2.4: Silica gel tube—To protect'pump and
dry gas meter.
2.5 Needle valve—To regulate gas flow
rate.
2.6 NPump—Leak-free, diaphragm type, or
equivalent, to pull gas through train.
2.7 Dry gas meter—To measure to within
1 percent of the total sample volume.
2.8 Rotamcter—To measure a flow range
from 0 to 0.1 c.f.in.
2.9 Balance—Capable of measuring to the
.nearest 0.1 g.
2.10 Barometer—Sufficient to read to
within 0.1 in. Hg.
2.11 Pilot tube—Type S. or equivalent, at-
tached to probe so that the sampling now
rate can be regulated proportional to the
stack gas velocity when velocity Is varying
with time or a sample traverse Is conducted.
3. Procedure.
3.1 Place about 5 ml. distilled water in
each implnger and weigh the implm-er and
contents to the nearest 0.1 g. Assemble the
apparatus without the probe as shown in Fig-
ure 4-1. Leak check by plugging the inlet to
the first Implnger and drawing a vacuum. In-
sure that flow through the dry gas meter is
less than 1 percent of the sampling rate.
3.2 Connect the probe, and sample at a
constant rate of 0.075 c.f.m. or'at a rate pro-
portional to the stack gas velocity not to ex-
ceed 0.075 c.f.m. Continue sampling until the
dry gas meter registers 1 cu. ft. or until visible
liquid droplets arc carried over from the lirst
Implnger to the second. Record temperature,
pressure, and dry gas meter reading as re-
quired by Figure 4-2.
3.3 After collecting the sample, weigh the
Impingers and their contents again to the
nearest 0.1 g.

4. Procedure.
4.1 Sampling.
4.1.1 After selecting the sampling site and
the minimum number of sampling points,
determine the stack pressure, temperature,
moisture, and range of velocity head.
4.1.2 Preparation of collection train.
Weigh to the nearest gram approximately
200 g. of silica gel. Label a niter of proper
diameter, desiccate3 for at least 24 hours
and weigh to the nearest 0.5 mg. in a room
where the relative humidity Is less than
50 percent. Place 100 ml. of water in each of
the first two Impingers. leave the third 1m-
plnger empty, and place approximately 200
g. of prcweighed silica gel in the fourth im-
plnger. Save a portion of the water for use
as a blank in the sample analysis. Set up the
train without the probe as in Fitrure 5-1.
Leak check the sampling train at "the sam-
pling site by plugging the inlet to the filter
holder and pulling a 15-in. Hg vacuum. A
leakage rate not in excess of 0.02 c.f.m. at a
vacuum of 15-in. Hg Is acceptable. Attach
the probe and adjust the heater to provide a
gas temperature of about 250° F. at the
probe outlet. Turn on the filter heating sys-
tem. Place crushed Ice around the Impingers.
Add more Ice during the run to keep the tem-
perature of the gases leaving the last im-
plnger at 70° F. or less.
4.1.3 Partlculate train operation. For each
run record the data required on the example
sheet shown In Figure 5-2. Take readings
at each sampling point at least every 5 min-
utes and when significant changes 'in stack
conditions necessitate additional adjust-
ments in flow rate. To begin sampling, po-
sition the nozzle at the first traverse point
.with the tip pointing directly into the gas
stream. Immediately start the pump and aci-
Just the flow to IsokineUc conditions. Main-
tain Isokinetlc sampling throughout the
sampling period. Nomographs are available
which aid In the rapid adjustment of the
sampling rate without other computations.
APTD-057G details the procedure for using
these nomographs. Turn off the pump at the
conclusion of each run and record the final
readings. Remove the probe and nozzle from
the stack and handle in accordance with the
sample recovery process described in section
4.2.
