1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Regulatory Background
On August 8, 1988, the United States Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA or Agency) established best demonstrated available technology (BDAT)
treatment standards for the listed wastes identified in Title 40, Code of
Federal Regulations. Section 261.32 (40 CFR 261.32) as K048, K049, K050, K051,
and K052, wastes from the petroleum refining industry.1 The wastes are listed
as follows:
K048 - Dissolved air flotation (DAF) float from the petroleum
refining industry;
K049 - Slop oil emulsion solids from the petroleum refining indus-
try;
K050 - Heat exchanger bundle cleaning sludge from the petroleum
refining industry;
K051 - API separator sludge from the petroleum refining industry;
and
K052 - Tank bottoms (leaded) from the petroleum refining industry.
Compliance with the BDAT treatment standards for these wastes is a prerequi
site under 40 CFR Part 268 for placement of K048-K052 in land disposal units.
RCRA Section 3004(m)(l) states specifically that treatment standards
are to be revised as appropriate. Therefore, EPA is not precluded from
revising a treatment standard provided that rulemaking procedures are fol
lowed. EPA believes that revision of the promulgated K048-K052 treatment
standards is appropriate at this time since additional treatment performance
data became available to the Agency. The Agency's legal authority and promul
gated methodology for establishing treatment standards and the petition
process necessary for requesting a variance from the treatment standards are
1These standards were promulgated in accordance with the amendments to the
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) of 1976, enacted by the Hazardous
and Solid Waste Amendments (HSWA) of November 8, 1984.

-------
summarized in EPA's Methodology for Developing BOAT Treatment Standards
(Reference 41).
The BDAT treatment standards for K048-K052 nonwastewaters that were
promulgated on August 8, 1988 (in the final First Third rule) were developed
based on data that were collected by EPA on incineration of these wastes, data
that were submitted to the Agency on solvent extraction of the wastes, and
data collected by EPA on stabilization of nonwastewater residuals. However,
some of the solvent extraction data submitted to the Agency were not received
in time to allow them to be fully evaluated before the promulgation date. As
a result, treatment standards for xylenes and naphthalene in K048-K052
nonwastewaters had to be reserved because the Agency did not have data showing
substantial treatment of these constituents from the solvent extraction
technology used to develop BDAT treatment standards for the other regulated
organic constituents. Since promulgation of K048-K052 treatment standards,
the Agency has reviewed these data as well as additional new data submitted to
the Agency following promulgation. The Agency has also recently conducted a
test to collect additional data on solvent extraction treatment of K048 and
K051.
Based on all data available at this time, the Agency is revising
treatment standards for 14 regulated organic constituents in nonwastewater
forms of K048-K052. The Agency is also establishing treatment standards for
xylene and naphthalene (previously reserved) in nonwastewater forms of K048-
K052. The Agency is deleting the treatment standards for two metal
constituents, arsenic and selenium, in nonwastewater forms of K048-K052 and is
revising the treatment standard for nickel. Finally, the Agency is adding
cyanide as a regulated constituent in wastewater forms of K048-K052 and has
developed a numerical BDAT treatment standard for cyanide. The BDAT treatment
standards for organic and metal constituents in K048-K052 nonwastewaters and
cyanide in K048-K052 wastewaters are presented in Tables 1-1 and 1-2,
respectively. The treatment standards promulgated on August 8, 1988 for
cyanide in nonwastewater forms of K048-K052 and for organic and metal
constituents in wastewater forms of K048-K052 are not being revised at this
time.
1-2
-------
The Agency has decided to reschedule these wastes to the Third Third
of the schedule and thus create a new prohibition effective date for them.
The legal authority to take this action comes from "EPA('s)... continuing
authority to reschedule wastes from one third of the schedule to another."
Chemical Waste Management-v. EPA. 869 F. 2d 1526 n.2 (D.C. Cir. 1989) (noting
rescheduling of the prohibition for multi-source leachate that had already
taken effect). The Agency is not undertaking this rescheduling casually. The
determining factor in EPA's view, however, is that even though the wastes were
prohibited in the First Third rule (and granted a two-year national capacity
variance), petroleum industry members were in legitimate doubt as to what the
ultimate treatment standards would be and, to some extent, what the
technological basis for the standards would be.
The original standards promulgated by EPA were based on treatment of
some-of the less contaminated petroleum refining wastes. Subsequent efforts
to reexamine and possibly amend the promulgated standards were delayed in part
because of conflicting claims from the treatment industry regarding the
equivalency of performance of three-pass and five-pass solvent extraction
technology. The industry itself participated in research efforts regarding
treatment tests on some of the more contaminated petroleum refining wastes and
generated some useful data which were used to revise the promulgated
standards.
As a result of this involved process, it could have been reasonably
unclear to a petroleum refining facility whether treatment standards could be
achieved using solvent extraction technology. Such a facility could have
legitimately delayed its investment decision about what treatment technology
to use to comply with the land disposal prohibitions. Given this situation,
the Agency believes it is acting both reasonably and legally in exercising its
authority to reschedule the wastes to the Third Third.
The Agency has determined that currently there is inadequate
treatment capacity for generated K048-K052 wastes. The Agency expects the
additional required treatment capacity to become available in the next six
1-3
-------
months. Thus, the Agency is granting a six-month national capacity variance
for K048-K052 from the effective date of the final Third Third rule. The
revised treatment standards for organic and metal constituents in K048-K052
nonwastewaters and cyanide in K048-K052 wastewaters and the previously
promulgated treatment standards for organic and metal constituents in K048-
K052 wastewaters and cyanide in K048-K052 nonwastewaters will become effective
on November 8, 1990.
1.2 Summary of This Amendment Document
This amendment to the Final Best Demonstrated Available Technology
(BOAT*) Background Document for K048. K049. K050. K051. K052 (Reference 40)
(1) presents the K048-K052 solvent extraction and incineration data used to
develop the treatment standards for nonwastewaters; (2) presents the K048
incinerator scrubber water data used to develop the treatment standards for
cyanide in wastewaters; and (3) provides EPA's rationale and technical support
for:
Developing revised treatment standards for regulated organic
and metal constituents in nonwastewater forms of K048-K052;
• Adding treatment standards for xylenes and naphthalene in
nonwastewater forms of K048-K052;
Deleting treatment standards for arsenic and selenium in
nonwastewater forms of K048-K052; and
Selecting cyanide as a regulated constituent and developing a
treatment standard for cyanide in wastewater forms of K048-
K052.
Sections 2.0 through 6.0 of this document amend sections in the
Final BOAT Background Document for K048-K052 by presenting additional waste
characterization data, treatment performance data, accuracy-corrected data, a
rationale for the selection of cyanide as a regulated constituent in K048-K052
wastewaters and deletion of arsenic and selenium as regulated constituents in
K048-K052 nonwastewaters, and calculation of new and revised treatment
standards, respectively. Section 7.0 contains acknowledgements, and Section
8.0 presents an amended list of references. Appendix A provides an amended
list of petroleum refinery plant codes and Appendix B contains quality
1-4
-------
assurance/quality control data. Appendix C presents data from statistical
tests comparing recently obtained data for stabilization of metal constituents
in nonwastewater forms of K048-K052 to that used to develop the treatment
standards promulgated on August 8, 1988 in the First Third Final rule.
Appendix D presents detection limits for all constituents analyzed in the
untreated and treated wastes from the Agency-sponsored solvent extraction test
and for cyanide in the untreated waste and incinerator scrubber water from the
Agency-sponsored incineration test.
The changes to the BOAT treatment standards for organic and metal
constituents in K048-K052 nonwastewaters and for cyanide in K048-K052
wastewaters that are being promulgated in the Third Third rule are shown in
Tables 1-1 and 1-2 and are summarized below.
1.2.1 Nonwastewaters- Organics
EPA received additional data from industry on solvent extraction
treatment of K048-K052 after the close of the comment period for the proposed
First Third regulation. These data were received too late for EPA to perform
a complete evaluation and to incorporate the data in the development of the
promulgated BDAT treatment standards. Since promulgation of the land disposal
restrictions for First Third wastes in August 1988, the Agency has reviewed
these data as well as additional new data submitted by industry after
promulgation of the First Third rule and during the comment period for the
proposed Third Third rule. The Agency has also recently completed a five-pass
solvent extraction treatment test on a mixture of K048 and K051.
For the organic constituents being regulated in K048-K052
nonwastewaters, the Agency considered treatment performance data submitted by
industry for the following technologies: three-pass solvent extraction,
multicycle solvent extraction, amine solvent extraction, and high temperature
thermal distillation. The majority of the data could not be considered in
developing revised treatment standards for the following reasons: 1) data
were not provided for a majority of the organic constituents being regulated,
2) untreated waste data were not provided and, therefore, no determination of
1-5
-------
substantial treatment could be made, 3) a majority of the organic constituents
being regulated were not detected in the untreated waste, 4) detection limits
for the treated waste were several orders of magnitude higher than those
achieved in other data sets, indicating nonoptimized laboratory procedures, 5)
treatment was not demonstrated for a majority of the regulated organic
constituents, and/or 6) adequate QA/QC data were not provided.
Two of the industry-submitted data sets for three-pass solvent
extraction met the Agency's data quality screening criteria. The data set
from the five-pass solvent extraction treatment test conducted by the Agency
also met the screening criteria. These data sets were considered together
with the incineration data used to develop the promulgated First Third
treatment standards. Promulgated treatment standards for organic constituents
in K048-K052 nonwastewaters were calculated with the combined pool of data.
The Agency chose to use this combined pool of data from several sources in
order to attempt to account for the complete range of variability that exists
for K048-K052 wastes.
The Agency has not reevaluated the selection of solvent extraction
and incineration as BDAT for organic constituents in K048-K052 nonwastewaters,
but has instead incorporated additional solvent extraction treatment
performance data into the revision of these treatment standards. Although the
industry-submitted data from high temperature thermal distillation were
insufficient to use for revising the BDAT treatment standards, the limited
data available from this technology show that it can also meet all of the
revised BDAT treatment standards. Therefore, high temperature thermal
distillation should be considered an equivalent BDAT technology to
incineration and solvent extraction. As is the case for all wastes for which
concentration-based standards have been established, any treatment technology
capable of achieving the treatment standards (including high temperature
thermal distillation) may be used to treat these wastes.
The Agency also is promulgating nonwastewater treatment standards
for two organic constituents for which it reserved treatment standards in the
First Third rule, naphthalene and xylenes. The results from the recently
1-6
-------
completed Agency-sponsored solvent extraction test and treatment tests
conducted by industry provide treatment performance data for solvent
extraction of naphthalene and xylenes as well as the other organic
constituents being regulated in K048-K052 nonwastewaters. There are important
environmental reasons to develop treatment standards for xylenes and naphtha-
lene in these wastes. These solvents have been found to be present at high
concentrations in these wastes (0.1 percent or higher), and at these levels,
can readily mobilize land disposed hazardous constituents and degrade landfill
liners resulting in increased leaching of hazardous constituents from land
disposal units. The Agency is also concerned about the potential contribution
of these constituents to VOC emissions from land disposal facilities. Thus,
treatment of these constituents will clearly serve to reduce the migration,
leaching, and volatilization of the hazardous constituents present in land
disposed K048-K052 (and any wastes with which they are co-disposed) (see RCRA
Section 3004(m)(l)).
1.2.2 Nonwastewaters - Metals
For the metal constituents being regulated in K048-K052
nonwastewaters, the Agency considered stabilization treatment performance data
submitted by industry for the stabilization of solvent extraction raffinate,
incineration ash, and incinerator combustion gas scrubber water solids using a
variety of binders. The majority of the data could not be considered in
developing revised treatment standards for the following reasons: 1) data
were not provided for a majority of regulated constituents, 2) data on
untreated wastes were not provided and, therefore, no determination of
substantial treatment could be made, 3) detection limits were not provided for
constituents that were not detected in the samples, and/or 4) treatment was
not demonstrated for a majority of the metal constituents being regulated.
Two of the data sets for stabilization of solvent extraction residuals and two
for stabilization of incinerator ash met the Agency's data quality screening
criteria, as discussed in Section 3.0 of this document. Statistical
comparison of these data sets, along with the Agency-generated stabilization
data used to develop the First Third treatment standards, showed that the data
1-7
-------
representing the stabilization of solvent extraction raffinate demonstrated
the best overall treatment for metals.
The Agency reviewed the treatment standards promulgated in the First
Third final rule for the four regulated metal constituents in K048-K052
nonwastewaters and is deleting the treatment standards for arsenic and
selenium. The data generated by the Agency that was used to develop the First
Third treatment standards for arsenic and selenium showed only marginal
evidence of stabilization treatment. None of the data submitted by industry
showed substantial treatment for arsenic or selenium. As discussed in the
proposed Third Third rule (54 FR 48431, November 22, 1989), the Agency
believes that oxidation of these metals may be required prior to stabilization
to achieve treatment of arsenic and selenium. The data submitted by industry
showed significantly higher concentrations of nickel in the untreated wastes
tested than the data for waste tested by the Agency. To ensure that the
Agency is accounting for the maximum variability of nickel concentrations in
K048-K052, the Agency is revising the treatment standard for nickel using the
data submitted by industry for stabilization of solvent extraction residuals.
The treatment standard for chromium has not been revised. All of the
stabilization data submitted by industry indicate that the previously
promulgated treatment standard for chromium is achievable for the complete
range of K048-K052 wastes tested using stabilization treatment.
1.2.3 Wastewaters - Cyanide
For wastewater forms of K048-K052, the Agency is adding cyanide as a
regulated constituent and has developed BOAT treatment standards for cyanide
based on incineration of these wastes. At the time of proposal for the First
Third wastes, the Agency did not have data on treatment of cyanide in
wastewater forms of K048-K052 and did not have data on treatment of cyanide in
other wastes that could be transferred to K048-K052 wastewaters. Data for
cyanide in combustion gas scrubber water from incineration of K048 became
available to the Agency too late in the regulatory schedule for the
promulgated First Third rule, these data have now been used to develop the
treatment standards for cyanide in K048-K052 wastewaters. The Agency expects
1-8
-------
treatment of cyanide to occur using incineration technologies. Solvent
extraction, although considered a BOAT technology for all other organic
constituents regulated in K.048-K052 nonwastewaters, has not been shown to
treat cyanide.

3.0 AMENDMENT TO SECTION 4.0 (PERFORMANCE DATA BASE) OF THE FINAL BOAT
BACKGROUND DOCUMENT FOR K048-K052
This section supplements Section 4.0 of the Final BOAT Background
Document for K048-K052. This section presents treatment performance data that
were considered by EPA in developing the revised treatment standards being
promulgated for organic and metal constituents in K048-K052 nonwastewaters and
for cyanide in K048-K052 wastewaters. For organic constituents in K048-K052
nonwastewaters, the Agency received additional solvent extraction data from
eight sources and high temperature distillation data from one source. For
metal constituents in K048-K052 nonwastewaters, the Agency received data for
stabilization of solvent extraction raffinate from two sources, additional
data for stabilization of fluidized-bed incinerator ash from one source, and
data for stabilization of combustion gas scrubber water solids from one
source. For cyanide in K048-K052 wastewaters, the Agency analyzed
incineration data from one source.
The Agency's data quality screening criteria for data received
include: (1) whether the data are from a demonstrated and available
technology; (2) whether the treatment system was well-designed and well
operated; (3) whether adequate analytical quality assurance and quality
control protocols were followed; (4) whether all candidate data sets used
measures of performance consistent with those being used to set the treatment
standards (e.g. total composition analysis for organic constituents in
nonwastewaters and analysis of the Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure
(TCLP) extract for metal constituents in nonwastewaters); and (5) whether the
data sets show substantial treatment on a constituent-by-constituent basis.
Plant codes and their references are listed in Appendix A.
3-1
-------
3.1 Treatment Performance Data Base for Organics in Nonvastewaters
For organic constituents in K048-K052 nonwastewaters, the Agency
received the following additional treatment data:
• Solvent extraction data from eight sources; and
• High temperature distillation data from one source.
After evaluating all the additional data sets based on the data
quality screening criteria, data from three sources, Plants Q, R, and T, were
considered for revising the treatment standards for organic constituents.
These data were used in addition to the data from Plant A, which is included
in the Final BDAT Background Document for K048-K052. From Plant Q, four
sample sets of data from solvent extraction treatment (using CF Systems'
solvent extraction unit - 5 passes) followed by centrifugation of a 50:50
mixture of K048 and K051 were considered for revision of the treatment
standards and are shown in Table 3-1. (Detection limits for the untreated and
treated wastes from Plant Q are presented in Appendix D.) Design and
operating parameters for Plant Q are shown in Table 3-2. The Agency believes
the solvent extraction unit at Plant Q was well-designed and well-operated
during the treatment test. From Plant R, four sample sets of data from
solvent extraction treatment (using CF Systems' solvent extraction unit 3
passes) of K048, K049, K051, and K052 were considered and are shown in Table
3-3. Twelve sample sets of data from solvent extraction treatment (using CF
Systems' solvent extraction unit - 3 passes) of K049, K051, and mixtures of
K048-K052 were considered from Plant T and are shown in Table 3-4. Design and
operating parameters from Plants R and T are not available. However, these
treatment data were generated using the same technology (CF Systems' solvent
extraction technology) that was used at Plant Q, and the Agency has data
indicating that this technology is well-designed and well-operated (see
Table 3-2).
Data submitted from six additional sources, Plants S, U, V, W, X,
and Y did not meet the screening criteria and were rejected from further
consideration. Also, twelve sample sets of data from Plant R and six sample
3-2
-------
sets of data from Plant T were rejected from consideration. The reasons for
rejecting these data are explained in Table 3-11.
3.2 Treatment Performance Data Base for Metals in Nonwastewaters
For metal constituents in K048-K052 nonwastewaters, the Agency
received the following additional data:
• Stabilization of solvent extraction residual from two sources;
• Stabilization of fluidized-bed incinerator ash from one source;
and
• Stabilization of combustion gas scrubber water solids from one
source.
After evaluating all the additional data sets based on the data
quality screening criteria, data from three sources, Plants R, U, and X, were
considered for revising the treatment standards for metals. These data were
considered along with the Agency-generated data from Plant I, which are
included in the Final BOAT Background Document for K048-K052. The additional
data sets include:
• Two sample sets of data from stabilization of solvent
extraction residual (residual generated from BP America's
multi-cycle solvent extraction unit) from treatment of a K049
and K051 mixture (unknown mixture of commercially available
binders) from Plant R as shown in Table 3-5;
• Thirteen sample sets from stabilization of fluidized-bed
incinerator ash (ash generated from Amoco's whiting, IN
fluidized-bed incinerator) from treatment of a 50:50 mixture of
K048 and K051 (nine treated with a lime/flyash binder and four
treated with a lime/flyash/C/F binder) were considered from
Plant U, as shown in Table 3-6; and
• Four sample sets of data from stabilization of solvent
extraction residual (residual generated from BP America's
multi-cycle solvent extraction unit) from treatment of a K048-
K052 mixture (unknown mixture of commercially available
binders) from Plant X as shown in Table 3-7.
3-3
-------
Available design and operating parameters for the stabilization
process at Plant X are shown in Table 3-8. The Agency believes the
stabilization process at Plant X was well-designed and well-operated. Design
and operating parameters from Plants R and U are not available; however, the
Agency has no reason to believe the stabilization processes used to generate
these data were not well-designed and well-operated.
The majority of the stabilization data submitted by industry could
not be considered for this rulemaking. The number of sample sets and reasons
for rejecting each of these sample sets are explained in Table 3-12.
3.3 Treatment Performance Data Base for Wastewaters
For cyanide in K048-K052 wastewaters, the Agency analyzed perfor-
mance data from the EPA-conducted test of fluidized-bed incineration (using
Amoco's Whiting, IN fluidized-bed incinerator) of K048 at Plant A. The data
shown in Table 3-9 are for cyanide in six sample sets of untreated K048 and
combustion gas scrubber water samples. Design and operating parameters for
the fluidized-bed incinerator are shown in Table 3-10. As discussed in the
Final BDAT Background Document for K048-K052, the Agency believes that the
incinerator at Plant A was well-designed and well-operated.
The Agency also has treatment performance data from the Industrial
Technology Division (ITD) of the Agency's Office of Water for cyanide
oxidation treatment of metal finishing wastewaters containing cyanide. These
data are presented in EPA's Final Best Demonstrated Available Technology
(BDAT) Background Document for U and P Wastes and Multi-Source Leachate
(F039), Volume A.

K048-K052
This section amends Section 5.0 of the Final BOAT Background Docu-
ment for K048-K052 as delineated below:
Amended
Section Section Amendment Contents
4.1 5.1 Preliminary data review of the solvent extraction,
stabilization, and incineration data presented in
Section 3.0 of this document and considered for BOAT
treatment standard revisions.
4.2 5.2.1 Accuracy correction of the solvent extraction data and

performance at Plants R, U, X, and I.)
4.6 5.7 Identification of BDAT for cyanide in wastewaters.
4.1 Amendment to Section 5.1 - Preliminary Data Review
The additional treatment performance data that were considered by the Agency
for BDAT treatment standard revisions are presented in Section 3.0. These
data are from:
• Fluidized-bed incineration of K048 at Plant A
Solvent extraction of K048 and K051 at Plant Q;
Solvent extraction of K048, K049. K051, and K052 at Plant R;
4-1
-------
Solvent extraction of K049. K051, and a mixture of K048-K052 at
- Plant T;
• Stabilization of residual from solvent extraction treatment of
K049 and K051 at Plant R;
• Stabilization of ash from incineration of K048 and K051 at
Plant U; and
• Stabilization of the residual from solvent extraction treatment
of a mixture of K048-K052 at Plant X.
These additional treatment performance data were reviewed and assessed to
determine whether they represent operation of well-designed and well-operated
treatment systems and whether sufficient quality assurance/quality control
(QA/QC) measures were employed to ensure the accuracy of the data. Following
the data review, the Agency had no reason to believe that any of these
treatment systems were not well-designed or well-operated or that there were
any insufficiencies in the QA/QC measures that were employed to ensure the
accuracy of the data.
4.2 Amendment to Section 5.2.1 - Accuracy Correction of Treatment
Performance Data for Nonwastewaters
4.2.1 Organics
Presented below is a description of how treatment performance data
for solvent extraction treatment at Plant Q of organic constituents in
nonwastewaters were adjusted for each regulated BDAT List constituent that was
detected in the untreated waste. See Appendix D for detection limits of
organic constituents in the untreated and treated wastes at Plant Q.
Matrix spike and duplicate matrix spike recoveries presented in
Table B-5 of Appendix B of this document were used to adjust the treatment
performance data for the residual solids from solvent extraction treatment of
K048 and K051 from Plant Q. The matrix spike recovery used to adjust
treatment performance data for each constituent was the lower of the two
values from the matrix spike and the duplicate spike. For constituents for
4-2
-------
which no matrix spike was performed, the average of the recoveries from the
first spike and the average of the recoveries from the duplicate spike were
calculated for the appropriate organic analytical fraction (volatile or
semivolatile). The lower of the two averages was used to adjust the treatment
performance data.
Accuracy correction factors presented in Table B-ll of Appendix B of
this document were calculated for the residual solids data from Plant Q. (The
accuracy correction factor is equal to 100 divided by the percent recovery )
Treatment performance data for each BDAT List organic constituent being
regulated that was detected in the untreated waste were corrected for accuracy
and are presented in Table 4-1. Matrix spike recoveries or average matrix
spike recoveries greater than 100% (i.e., recoveries that would result in an
accuracy correction factor less than 1.0) were considered to be 100% for the
purpose of this calculation so that the data were not adjusted to
concentrations below the detection limits. Matrix spike recoveries of less
than 20% are not acceptable and were not used to correct detection.
Treatment performance data for incineration at Plant A of organic
constituents in nonwastewaters were corrected for accuracy as discussed in
Section 5.2.1 of the Final BDAT Background Document for K048-K052. Matrix
spike recovery data were not submitted or were not available for nonwastewater
organic constituents for the data sets from Plants R and T. However, in these
cases, the Agency believes that sufficient quality assurance and quality
control were employed in analysis of the data. Therefore, the data for Plants
R and T were not adjusted for accuracy.
4.2.2 Metals
Matrix spike recovery data were not submitted or were not available
for nonwastewater metal constituents for the data sets from Plants R, U, and
X. However, in these cases, the Agency believes that sufficient quality
assurance and quality control were employed in analysis of the data.
Therefore, the data for Plants R, U, and X were not adjusted for accuracy.
4-3
-------
4.3 Amendment to Section 5.2.2 - Accuracy Correction of Treatment
Performance data for Wastewaters
Presented below is a description of how treatment performance data
for cyanide in scrubber water were adjusted for accuracy.
The matrix spike recovery and duplicate matrix spike recovery for
cyanide in combustion gas scrubber water at Plant A were 102% and 104% ,
respectively. Since both recovery values are greater than 100%, and, if used,
would result in an accuracy correction factor of less than 1.0, as previously
explained in 4.2.1, an accuracy correction factor of 1.0 was used for cyanide.
The corrected treatment concentrations for cyanide in the combustion gas
scrubber water from fluidized-bed incineration are presented in Table 4-2.
4.4 Amendment to Section 5.3 - Identification of BOAT for Organic
Constituents in K048-K052 Nonwastewaters
The Agency examined the performance of:
Solvent extraction at Plant Q (CF Systems' five-pass solvent
extraction unit);
• Solvent extraction at Plant R (CF Systems' three-pass solvent
extraction unit);
• Solvent extraction at Plant T (CF Systems' three-pass solvent
extraction unit); and
Incineration at Plant A (Amoco's Whiting, IN fluidized-bed
incinerator) discussed in the Final BDAT Background Document
for K048-K052.
Although the solvent extraction data showed somewhat higher
concentrations of organics in the treated waste than the incineration data,
the organic constituent removal efficiency for solvent extraction data
available to the Agency is 98%, on average, comparable to the 99.7% average
efficiency achieved by incineration data available to the Agency.
Additionally, solvent extraction provides the benefit of recovering as much as
365,000 barrels of oil per year (provided all of the K048-K052 generated per
4-4
-------
year is treated using solvent extraction technologies rather than
incineration).
As was determined in the Final BOAT Background Document for K048-
K.052, solvent extraction and incineration are BDAT for organic constituents in
K048-K052 nonwastewaters. The Agency notes that in selecting both solvent
extraction and incineration as BDAT for K048-K052, it has included a
technology, that does not destroy or remove the organic constituents of concern
as well as incineration. EPA believes this is a permissible and rational
choice to make given that solvent extraction is a recovery technology and the
law voices a strong preference for use of such technologies. (See, e.g., H.
R. Rep. No. 198, 98th Cong. 1st Sess. 31.) In addition, solvent extraction
does perform substantial treatment on these wastes. Thus, the Agency believes
its choice to be consistent with the language of RCRA Section 3004 (m) and
also with the overall statutory goals of encouraging material reuse and waste
minimization. (See, e.g. RCRA Section 1003 (6).)
4.5 Amendment to Section 5.5 - Identification of BDAT for Metal
Constituents in K048-K052 Nonwastewaters
The Agency compared the performance of:
• Stabilization of fluidized-bed incinerator ash (ash generated
from Amoco's Whiting, IN fluidized-bed incinerator) from Plant
U (lime and fly ash binder and lime and fly ash C/F binder);
• Stabilization of fluidized-bed incinerator ash (ash generated
from Amoco's fluidized-bed incinerator) from Plant I (lime and
fly ash binder);
• Stabilization of solvent extraction residual (residual
generated from BP America's multi-cycle solvent extraction
unit) from Plant X (unknown mixture of commercially available
binders); and
• Stabilization of solvent extraction residual (residual
generated from BP America's multi-cycle solvent extraction
unit) from Plant R (unknown mixture of commercially available
binders).
4-5
-------
A statistical_comparison of this data showed that data sets for stabilization
of solvent extraction residual submitted by Plants R and X showed overall
better treatment for metal constituents than the data generated by EPA at
Plant I or submitted by Plant U for stabilization of incinerator ash.
Appendix C presents the statistical comparison of these data sets.
As was determined in the Final BOAT Background Document for K048-
K052, stabilization is BDAT for metal constituents in K048-K052
nonwastewaters.
4.6 Amendment to Section 5.7 - Identification of BDAT for Cyanide in
K048-K052 Wastewaters
Scrubber water is generated as a treatment residual from incinera-
tion in systems using wet scrubber air pollution control devices. The Agency
has treatment performance data for cyanide in the combustion gas scrubber
water residual from fluidized-bed incineration treatment of K048. As
discussed in the Final BDAT Background Document for K048-K052, fluidized-bed
incineration is demonstrated at full-scale for treatment of K048-K052. The
Agency has no data from other technologies for treatment of cyanide in K048-
K052 wastewaters. For this reason, EPA has determined that fluidized-bed
incineration provides the "best" treatment for cyanide in K048 wastewaters.
This technology is also "available" since it is commercially available and it
provides substantial treatment of the cyanide in wastewaters as shown by the
data in Table 3-9. The BDAT treatment standard for cyanide in K048
wastewaters is therefore based on the performance achieved in the combustion
gas scrubber water from fluidized-bed incineration.
As discussed in Section 3.3 of this document, the Agency also has
performance data for treatment of cyanide in wastewaters other than K048-K052
wastewaters by cyanide oxidation. However, the Agency prefers to use data
from treatment of K048 to develop the treatment standard for cyanide in K048-
K052 wastewaters because the cyanide oxidation data were not from treatment of
K048-K052.
4-6
-------
As discussed in Section 2.0 of the Final BOAT Background Document
for K048-K052, EPA has determined that refinery wastes K048-K052 represent a
single waste treatability group. Therefore, since fluidized-bed incineration
is the technology basis for the BDAT treatment standard for cyanide in
wastewater forms of K048, this technology also provides the basis for the BDAT
treatment standard for cyanide in wastewater forms of K049, K050, K051, and
K052.

5.0 AMENDMENT TO SECTION 6.2 (SELECTION OF REGULATED CONSTITUENTS) OF
THE FINAL BOAT BACKGROUND DOCUMENT FOR K048-K052
5.1 Amendment to Section 6.2.1 - Selection of Regulated Metal
Constituents in Nonwastewaters
This section amends Section 6.2.1 of the Final BOAT Background
Document for K048-K052 to delete arsenic and selenium as regulated
constituents in nonwastewater forms of K048-K052. Regulated constituents are
selected based on several criteria, one of these being that data show
substantial treatment for the constituent. Further analysis of the data from
Plant I (the EPA-generated data) that were used to develop the First Third
treatment standards for arsenic and selenium in K048-K052 show only marginal
evidence of stabilization treatment for arsenic and selenium. As discussed in
the proposed Third Third rule (54 FR 48431), the Agency believes that
oxidation of these metals may be required prior to stabilization to achieve
effective treatment. Additionally, none of the stabilization data submitted
by industry show substantial treatment for arsenic or selenium. Therefore,
the Agency is deleting the treatment standards for arsenic and selenium in
nonwastewater forms of K048-K052.
5.2 Amendment to Section 6.2.2 - Selection of Regulated Constituents in
Wastewaters
This section amends Sections 6.2.2 of the Final BOAT Background
Document for K048-K052 to include cyanide as a regulated constituent in
wastewater forms of K048-K052. Available characterization data for cyanide in
untreated K048-K052 are summarized in Tables 2-4 through 2-8 of the Final BOAT
Background Document for K048-K052. These data indicate that cyanide is
present at treatable concentrations in all five refinery waste streams (K048,
K049. K050, K051, and K052). Cyanide was not considered for regulation in
K048-K052 wastewaters in the First Third rule because BOAT treatment
performance data were not available soon enough to allow the Agency to fully
evaluate the data. The Agency has completed its analysis of the treatment
performance data for cyanide presented in Table 3-9 of this document and has
5-1
-------
determined that the data show substantial treatment of cyanide. Therefore,
cyanide is being selected for regulation in wastewater forms of K048, K049,
K050, K051, and K052.

6.0 AMENDMENT TO SECTION 7.0 (CALCULATION OF TREATMENT STANDARDS) OF THE
FINAL BOAT BACKGROUND DOCUMENT FOR K048-K052
This section amends Sections 7.1 and 7.2 of the Final BOAT Back-
ground Document for K048-K052 by presenting a discussion of the calculation of
revised treatment standards for organic constituents and nickel in K048-K052
nonwastewaters and treatment standards for cyanide in K048-K052 wastewaters.
6.1 Amendment to Section 7.1 - Calculation of Treatment Standards for
Organic Constituents in Nonwastewater Forms of K048-K052
The best measure of performance for waste recovery or destruction
technologies, such as solvent extraction and incineration, is the total amount
of constituent remaining in the treatment residual after treatment. There-
fore, BOAT treatment standards for nonwastewater organic constituents were
calculated based on total constituent concentration data. BOAT for organic
constituents in nonwastewater forms of K048-K052 is solvent extraction and
incineration. The treatment standards being promulgated for organic
constituents in K048-K052 nonwastewaters were developed using the four sources
of treatment performance data that were described in Section 3.0 of this
document. The four data sources include:
• Four sample sets of treatment performance data for CF Systems'
five-pass solvent extraction followed by centrifugation of K048
and K051 (from Plant Q);
• Four sample sets of treatment performance data for CF Systems'
three-pass solvent extraction consisting of one sample set each
of data for K048, K049. K051, and K052 (from Plant R);
• Twelve sample sets of treatment performance data for CF
Systems' three-pass solvent extraction consisting of ten sample
sets of data for a K048-K052 mixture, two sample sets of data
for K051, and one sample set of data for K049 (from Plant T);
and
• Six sample sets of treatment performance data for fluidized-bed
incineration of K048 and K051 (from Plant A).
6-1
-------
Table 4-1 of this document presents the accuracy-corrected total
concentration values for organic constituents in the residual solids from
solvent extraction at Plant Q. The total concentration values for organic
constituents in the raffinate for solvent extraction at Plants R and T are
presented in Tables 3-3 and 3-4. respectively, of this document. Table 5-1 of
the final BOAT Background Document for K048-K052 presents the accuracy-
corrected total concentration values for incinerator ash at Plant A. (The
data for Plants R and T were not corrected for accuracy as discussed in
Section 4.2.1.) Values are presented for all regulated organic constituents
detected in the untreated or treated waste.
Tables 6-1 through 6-5 at the end of this section summarize the
calculation of treatment standards for organic constituents in K048, K049,
K050, K051, and K052 nonwastewaters, respectively. The treatment standard for
each regulated organic constituent in K048-K052 nonwastewaters was calculated
as follows: 1) The four available data sources from Plants Q, R, T, and A
were reviewed to determine the sample set with the most difficult to treat
waste, typically the one with the highest concentration value (including
detection limit values) for the constituent in the untreated waste. The Agency
assumed that high detection limit values in the untreated waste for several
data sets indicated high concentrations of a constituent if other data
(untreated waste data or presence of the constituent in the treated waste)
indicated that the constituent was indeed present in the untreated waste but
was not detected because of matrix interferences. 2) The concentration of the
constituent in the treated waste that corresponded to the untreated waste
concentration representing the most difficult to treat waste was then
multiplied by a variability factor of 2.8 to determine the treatment standard
for the constituent. The variability factor of 2.8 is used by the Agency to
account for variability when only one data point is used in a treatment
standard calculation (Reference 41).
EPA adopted this methodology in order to adequately account for the
variability in K048-K052 wastes generated from different refineries, as
evidenced by the range of constituent concentration data for untreated K048-
K052 available to the Agency, presented in Section 2.0 of this document and
6-2
-------
Section 2.0 of the Final BDAT Background Document for K048-K052. In order to
develop realistic and achievable BDAT treatment standards, the Agency must
account for the most difficult to treat wastes, typically those containing the
highest concentrations in the untreated waste of the constituents of concern.
Further, the treatment performance data available to the Agency indicate that
solvent extraction technologies are to some extent waste matrix dependent.
Thus, variations in waste feed must be taken into account in assessing the
performance of solvent extraction technologies.
In addition, the Agency did not believe it would be technically
valid to develop a variability factor for each constituent by pooling all of
the available treatment performance data for solvent extraction, because the
data were obtained from several different types of solvent extraction
technologies and each treatment test generating data was conducted under
different conditions (e.g., CF Systems' solvent extraction treatment data for
three-pass and five-pass operation). The result of pooling the data would
have been an artifically high variability factor leading to unrealistically
high BDAT treatment standards.
The Agency believes that this methodology accounts for between-
refinery variability in KOA8-K052. The Agency also accounted for the
variability inherent in performance of treatment systems as well as in the
collection and analysis of. treated waste samples by using a variability factor
in the calculation of revised BDAT treatment standards. Data for solvent
extraction and incineration from all four sources considered by the Agency for
development of revised treatment standards show that these technologies can
meet the standards as promulgated.
Treatment standards for four of the regulated constituents,
benz(a)anthracene, benzo(a)pyrene, bis(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate, and chrysene,
are based on treated waste data from Plant R that correspond to untreated
waste data below the detection limit. Because these constituents were present
in the treated waste, and based on the available characterization data, the
Agency believes that these constituents were also present in the untreated
waste from Plant R but were not detected because of matrix interferences.
6-3
-------
Therefore, the_ data from Plant R were used to calculate treatment standards
for these constituents.
Treatment standards for di-n-butyl phthalate, o-cresol, p-cresol,
and phenol were based on detection limit data for the treated waste from Plant
R that correspond to untreated waste data also below the detection limit.
Based on the available characterization data (see Section 2.0). the Agency
believes that these constituents were present in the untreated waste from
Plant R but were not detected because of matrix interferences. Therefore, the
data from Plant R were used to calculate treatment standards for these
constituents.
The calculation of treatment standards for constituents for which
the most difficult to treat waste did not correspond to the highest
concentration of the constituent in the untreated waste is described below:
4. Benzene. The highest concentration value for benzene in the
untreated waste, 370 ppm from Plant R, corresponds to a treated waste value of
0.05 ppm. The resulting treatment standard would be so low that it would
preclude the use of many solvent extraction and incineration technologies for
treatment of K048-K052. Therefore, the Agency used the benzene concentration
in the treated waste of <5 ppm from Plant R, sample set 3, which contains the
highest overall concentrations of volatile constituents in the untreated
waste, to calculate the treatment standard for benzene.
81. and 82. o-Cresol and p-Cresol. These constituents are
regulated only in K052 nonwastewaters. Therefore, the Agency considered
treatment performance data for only K052 in calculating the treatment
standards for o-cresol and p-cresol. The highest concentrations for o-cresol
and p-cresol in untreated K052 are from Plant R. Neither constituent was
present at or above detection in the untreated or treated K052 from any of the
four data sources. However, based on the available characterization data for
K052 (see Section 2.0), the Agency believes that o-cresol and p-cresol were
present in the untreated K052 from Plant R but were not detected because of
matrix interferences in the untreated waste. Therefore, the data from
6-4
-------
treatment of K052 at Plant R were used to calculate the treatment standards
for o-cresol and p-cresol.
98. Di-n-butvl phthalate. The highest concentration value for di-n-
butyl phthalate in an individual untreated waste is 230 ppra from K051 treated
at Plant A. However, the waste feed at Plant A was a mixture of 34% K048 and
66% K051. Considering the contribution of di-n-butyl phthalate from each
waste, the highest concentration of di-n-butyl phthalate in the untreated
waste mixture is 182 ppm. Therefore, the highest concentration for di-n-butyl
phthalate in a single untreated waste from the four data sources considered is
<200 ppm from Plant R. The corresponding treated waste value of <1.3 ppm was
used to calculate the treatment standard for di-n-butyl phthalate. As
discussed above for o-cresol and p-cresol, the Agency believes based on the
available characterization data that di-n-butyl phthalate was present in the

interferences.
145. Pyrene. The highest concentration value for pyrene in an
untreated waste, <350 ppm from Plant T, corresponds to a treated waste value
of 3.7 ppm. The Agency believes that calculating a treatment standard based
on this number would result in a treatment standard so low that it would
preclude the use of some solvent extraction technologies for treatment of
K048-K052. The untreated waste value of 43 ppm from Plant R, with a
corresponding treated waste value of 13 ppm, was selected by the Agency as the
sample set that accounts for waste variability while resulting in a treatment
standard that is as low as possible and that can be met by all of the solvent
extraction and incineration technologies considered in developing the revised
BOAT treatment standards.
6.2 Amendment to Section 7.1 - Calculation of Treatment Standard for
Nickel in Nonwastewater Forms of K048-K052
Stabilization reduces the leachability of metals in a waste. The
best measure of performance for stabilization technologies is the analysis of
an extract of the waste using the toxicity characteristic leaching procedure
6-5
-------
(TCLP). Therefore, the BOAT treatment standard for nickel in nonwastewater
forms of K048-K052 was calculated based on TCLP data.
BDAT for metal constituents in nonwastewater forms of K048-K052 is
stabilization. Treatment performance achieved for each of the available data
sets discussed in Section 3.0 of this document was statistically compared
using Duncan's Multiple-Range Test. (Tables 3-5, 3-6, and 3-7 of this
document present the TCLP values for nickel in the untreated and treated
wastes from Plants R, U, and X, respectively. Table 4-17 of the Final BDAT
Background Document for K048-K052 presents the TCLP values for nickel in the
untreated and treated wastes from Plant I.) Results of the statistical
comparison indicate that the data from Plants R and X demonstrated better
treatment performance than the data from Plants I or U. Data from Plants R
and X were generated using the same technology and were pooled to calculate
the standard for nickel. (Results of the statistical comparison are presented
in Appendix C of this document.) Therefore, the BDAT treatment standard for
nickel in K048-K052 nonwastewaters was calculated based on six sample sets of
treatment performance data for stabilization of solvent extraction residual:
four sample sets from multicycle solvent extraction of a K048-K052 mixture at
Plant X; and two sample sets of data from multicycle solvent extraction of
K049 and K051 at Plant R.
The treatment standard for nickel was calculated by first averaging
the six treated waste values. A variability factor was then calculated from
the six treated waste values, and the variability factor was multiplied by the
average of the treated waste values to determine the treatment standard. (A
detailed discussion on the calculation of variability factors is presented in
Reference 41.) Table 6-6 at the end of this section summarizes the
calculation of the treatment standard for nickel in K048-K052 nonwastewaters.

6.3 Amendment to Section 7.2 - Calculation of Treatment Standard for
Cyanide in Wastewater Forms of K048-K052
Incineration generally results in the generation of two treatment
residuals: ash (a nonwastewater form) and combustion gas scrubber water (a
wastewater form). The best measure of performance for a destruction tech-
nology, such as incineration, is the total amount of constituent remaining
after treatment. Therefore, the BDAT treatment standard for cyanide in
wastewaters was calculated based on total constituent concentration in the
combustion gas scrubber water.
The BDAT treatment standard for cyanide in K048-K052 wastewaters was
calculated based on six sample sets of treatment performance data for
combustion gas scrubber water from fluidized-bed incineration of K048. These
treatment performance data were then transferred to K049, K050, K051, and
K052. Table 4-2 of this document presents the accuracy-corrected total
concentration values for cyanide in the untreated and treated wastes for
fluidized-bed incineration at Plant A.
The treatment standard for cyanide was calculated by first averaging
the six accuracy-corrected treated waste values. A variability factor was
then calculated from the six treated waste values, and the variability factor
was multiplied by the average of the corrected treated waste values to
determine the treatment standard. (A detailed discussion on the calculation
of variability factors is presented in Reference 41.) Table 6-7 at the end of
this section summarizes the calculation of the treatment standard for cyanide
in K048-K052 wastewaters.

ANALYTICAL QA/QC
This appendix identifies the analytical methods used for analysis of
the BDAT List organic constituents in the nonwastewater residual from the
solvent extraction test conducted at Plant Q by the Agency and of cyanide in
the wastewater residual from the incineration test conducted at Plant A by the
Agency. Table B-l presents the methods used for the analysis of the volatile
and semivolatile organic constituents and cyanide. Only SW-846 Methods (EPA's
Test Methods for Evaluating Solid Waste:. Physical/Chemical Methods. SW-846)
were used for determining total constituent concentrations.
In some instances, it was necessary to deviate from the SW-846
methods. These deviations are given below:
• Table B-2: specific procedures used in extraction of organic
compounds when alternatives to SW-846 methods are allowed by
approval of EPA's Characterization and Assessment division.
• Table B-3: specific procedures or equipment used in extraction
of organic compounds when alternatives or equivalents are
allowed in the SW-846 methods.
• Table B-4: specific procedures or equipment used for analysis
of organic compounds and cyanide when alternatives or equiva-
lents are allowed in SW-846 methods.
BDAT List organic constituent concentrations are corrected for
accuracy based on matrix spike recoveries and matrix spike duplicate recov-
eries. These recoveries from Plants Q and A are given in Table B-5. Results
for the laboratory duplicate injections from Plants Q and A are given in Table
B-6.
Table B-7 gives calibration procedures specified in SW-846 used to
analyze for BDAT List organic constituents and cyanide, and Table B-8 gives
the sources and purities of calibration standards used. Table B-9 gives the
sources and/or purities of system performance check compounds and calibration
check standards used. Table B-10 gives the purities of solvents and acids
used.

-------
In order to account for inaccuracies due to matrix interferences in
the data on the treated waste, accuracy correction factors for the BOAT List
organic constituents and cyanide are presented in Table B-ll.

The accuracy correction factor is equal to 100 divided by
the percent recovery.
No matrix spike was performed for this constituent. The
percent recovery for this constituent is based on the lower
average percent recovery of the matrix spike and matrix
spike duplicate for the semivolatile constituents.
The matrix spike duplicate recovery for toluene was 9%.
Recoveries less than 20% are not acceptable for the BOAT program
and are not included in calculating accuracy correction factors
as discussed in Reference 41.

STATISTICAL COMPARISON OF DATA SETS FOR
K048-K052 NONWASTEWATER METAL CONSTITUENTS
C-l
-------
STATISTICAL COMPARISON OF DATA SETS FOR
K048-K052 NONWASTEWATER METAL CONSTITUENTS
A statistical test was used to compare the treatment performance
achieved by Plants I, R, U, and X for stabilization of metals in K048-K052
treatment residuals. Results of the statistical comparison are presented in
Tables C-l through C-3. As demonstrated in Table C-l, the data from Plants X
and R (stabilization of solvent extraction raffinate) showed overall better
treatment for metal constituents in K048-K052.
A statistical comparison of treatment performance could not be
performed for selenium because no data were available from Plants R, U, or X
for this constituent. As discussed in Section 5.0, the Agency is deleting
selenium as a regulated constituent in nonwastewater forms of K048-K052.
A nonparametric approach was used to perform the statistical
comparison of these data. This approach is an alternative statistical method
to the analysis of variance (ANOVA) test discussed in EPA's Methodology for
Developing BOAT Treatment Standards (Reference 41). The major assumptions
made in performing an ANOVA are: (1) the errors have a mean of zero, and (2)
the errors are independent and normally distributed. It was difficult to
assess whether the stabilization data met the above criteria, since so little
data were available and some of the results were below the detection limit.
Finally, the treated waste data being compared included a number of different
levels of detection limits.
A nonparametric approach is an alternative approach which
circumvents some of these problems. This approach involves no assumptions
about the underlying distribution of the data. Instead, the nonparametric
approach involves ranking, or categorizing, the data and performing the
standard statistical tests on the ranks or categories. A nonparametric
version of the ANOVA and Duncan's Multiple-Range test were performed to
compare the stabilization treatment performance data from Plants I, R, U, and
X. ANOVA's are used to determine whether differences among several means are
C-2
-------
significant, however, they do not determine which given means (or group of
means) are significantly higher or lower than the others. A multiple range
test can be used to determine which group means are higher or lower than the
others, given that there is a significant difference between the means. For
example, an ANOVA performed on the metals data may conclude that the mean
analyte concentrations are different treatment types. When the treatment
means differed significantly, Duncan's Multiple-Range test was then used to
determine which treatments had mean concentrations which were significantly
higher or lower than the other treatments. (This approach still does not
always adequately deal with the problem of multiple detection limits in the
treatments being compared, since "not detected" values are ranked according to
the value of the detection limit.)

DETECTION LIMITS FOR UNTREATED AND TREATED WASTES
Statistical tests were conducted to compare the treatment perfor-
mance achieved by the three-cycle solvent extraction unit at plant M with
treatment performance achieved by the extraction unit at Plant Q. Results of
the statistical tests are summarized in Tables C-l through C-3. Based on
these calculations, the system at Plant Q performed significantly better than
the system at Plant M for the following regulated constituents in K048-K052
nonwastewaters: anthracene, benz(a)anthracene, chrysene, di-n-butyl
phthalate, ethylbenzene, phenanthrene, pyrene, toluene, and o-cresol. The
system at Plant M performed significantly better than the system at Plant Q
for the following regulated constituents: phenol and p-cresol.
A statistical comparison of treatment performance by the systems at
Plants Q and M could not performed for xylene and naphthalene because the
treatment system at Plant M does not show treatment for xylene and
naphthalene. The treatment system at Plant Q does demonstrate significant
treatment for these constituents.
The Wilcoxon rank-sum test (Statistical Methods, Snedecor, G.W. and
Cochran, W.G., 7th ed., p. 144) was used to perform the statistical comparison
of these data. This test is an alternative statistical approach to the
analysis of variance (ANOVA) test discussed in EPA's Methodology for Develop-
ing BOAT Treatment Standards (Reference 41). Two basic assumptions are made
in performing an ANOVA: (1) the data are normally distributed and (2) the
variances from the data sets being compared are homogeneous. Due to the
relatively small number of data points and the fact that a majority of the
treated waste data consisted of non-detect values, it was difficult to assess
whether these criteria were met. An alternative statistical approach which
circumvents these problems is a non-parametric approach; this approach in-
volves no assumptions about the underlying distribution of the data. Instead,
the non-parametric approach involves ranking, or categorizing, the data and
performing statistical tests on these ranks or categories. The non-parametric
D-2
-------
Wilcoxon rank-sum test basically consists of performing an ANOVA on the ranks
of the data. Accordingly, the Wilcoxon rank-sum test was determined to be the
appropriate method to use to compare the treatment performance data from the
treatment systems at Plants M and Q.
