I. INTRODUCTION
Alabama By-Products Corporation (ABC) operates a foundry coke
plant in Tarrant City (Jefferson County), Alabama. ABC has a history
of non-compliance with regulations contained in Chapter 4 of the Alabama
Air Pollution Control Commission Rules and Regulations [Appendix A].
As a result, the U.S. Department of Justice, at the request of the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), commenced a civil action
on November 8, 1977 in Federal District Court against ABC.
The Alabama Air Pollution Control Commission Rules and Regulations
cited in this report, with the exception of Section 4.9.4 which deals
with pushing emissions, are part of Federally-approved Alabama State
Implementation Plant (SIP). For pushing emissions, EPA Region IV,
has cited ABC for violations of Section 4.4.1 of the Alabama regulations
which is a Federally-approved mass particulate emission-limiting regula-
tion based upon the process weight rate rather than the opacity of
visible emissions.
In December of 1977, at the request of EPA Region IV, National
Enforcement Investigations Center (NEIC) personnel inspected ABC to
determine compliance with the Regulation 4.9. The results of that
inspection are contained in this report.
-------
II. SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS
Between December 5 and 9, 1977, inspectors from EPA's National
Enforcement Investigations Center (NEIC) conducted a coke plant survey
at Alabama By-Products Corporation in Tarrant City, Alabama. The
purpose of the survey was to determine the compliance status of the
plant with Regulation 4.9 of the Alabama Air Pollution Control Rules
and Regulations.
CHARGING
Charging emissions at all batteries were within the limits allowed
by the Regulation. However, on Battery 1, the jumper oven selection
and the condition of the jumper pipe could result in reduced control
of emissions during charging. The jumper ovens on Battery 1 are fourth
in the pushing series. These ovens are producing more gases than the
ovens next in the pushing series, a usual choice for a jumper oven.
Therefore, a jumper oven fourth in the pushing series should be less
effective in handling vented emissions than a jumper oven next in the
pushing series.
The high operating temperatures of the jumper pipe on Battery 1
caused warpage resulting in a poor fit between the ovens and the jumper
pipe. This condition results in less effective steam aspiration of
the oven being charged.
On Battery 2, the larry car has stationary fill sleeves instead
of drop sleeves. The bottom of the stationary fill sleeves is about
15 to 20 cm (6 to 8 in) above the charge ports. This gap reduces the
effectiveness of steam aspiration by allowing outside air to enter
-------
the oven. Also, emissions were observed escaping from the oven, despite
the high steam aspiration rate [10.5 to 11.2 kg/cm2 - 150 to 160 psig]
used on this battery.
TOPSIDES
Topside emissions (offtake piping and lids) from all four batteries
were within the limits allowed by the Regulation.
DOORS
Door emissions from Batteries 2, 5 and 6 were within the limits
allowed by the regulation. However, door emissions on Battery 1 exceeded
the Regulation for 7 out of 10 inspections. During door inspections,
door condition, and door and jamb cleaning effectiveness were recorded
for Battery 1. In general, physical condition was satisfactory, but
door and jamb cleaning, which was done by machine, was often incomplete -
leaving deposits that obstructed the gas channel and/or interferred
with the knife edge seal.
The doors on Battery 1 were being modified to permit finer adjust-
ments and greater leak control. However, during the inspection very
little door adjusting was observed.
In order to reduce the number of leaking doors on Battery 1, the
collector main pressure was reduced between door inspections. The
result was a significant reduction in the percent of doors leaking
(from 27% to 11%).
The Company, in an attempt to minimize chuck door leakage on
Battery 1, placed cardboard gaskets on the chuck door at the end of
leveling. However, the reduction in leakage resulting from this action
could not be determined because leak rates prior to the use of gaskets
-------
was not known. The cardboard gasket tended to smolder and smoke in
some cases; this condition required the observer to distinguish a
chuck door leak from gasket smoke.
PUSHING
Pushing on all four batteries exceeded the limits of the Regulation.
In fact, pushing emissions were often read at 100% opacity. Coking
times obtained during the inspection are considered about average for
a foundry plant.
Indications of poor coal distribution in the ovens were observed
during the inspection. Although poor coal distribution does not directly
affect pushing emissions, it can eventually lead to refractory damage
which can result in greater pushing and door emissions.
COMBUSTION STACKS
The opacity of coke battery stacks reflects oven condition.
Combustion stack Number 2 (serving Battery 2) and combustion stack
Number 4 (serving Batteries 5 and 6) were observed in excess of the
20% opacity limit allowed by the Regulation on the one occasion that
visible emission observations were taken. This indicates that these
batteries may have had some ovens in need of maintenance.
-------
III. PROCESS DESCRIPTION
Alabama By-Products Corporation (ABC) operates four batteries in
its Tarrant City, Alabama foundry coke plant. The batteries are desig-
nated as 1, 2, 5 and 6 and have 78, 25, 25 and 29 ovens, respectively.
Batteries 1 and 2 are operated as separate units and Batteries 5 and
6 as one unit. Each unit has its own coal bunker, larry car, coke
side door machine, and pusher machine. Battteries 2, 5 and 6 also
have bench machinery used for luting doors; Battery 1 doors are self
sealing.
Battery 1 is equipped with both a Coaltek preheated coal and a
larry car charging system; the Coaltek preheated coal system was not
in operation during the inspection. Batteries 2, 5 and 6 have only
larry car charging systems.
For Battery 1, each oven has three charge ports numbered from
push side to coke side; for Batteries 2, 5 and 6 each oven has four
charge ports also numbered from push side to coke side. All four
batteries are equipped with single collector mains on the push side
and are charged and pushed by the "Koppers" sequence (1's, 3's, 5's,
7's, 9's, 2's, 4's, 6's, 8's, 1's, 3's, etc.)
Figure 1 is a schematic of the plant layout including the Coaltek
charging system. The schematic also shows Batteries 3 and 4, which
are presently shut down.

IV. INSPECTION OBSERVATIONS
During the December 6 to 9, 1977 inspection, an NEIC inspector
documented process operations, work practices, and current equipment
having a bearing on charging, door and pushing emissions while visible
emission observations (VEO's) of those processes were being conducted.
No such process parameters were gathered while VEO's were made for top-
sides and battery stacks.
OPERATING PRACTICES AND EQUIPMENT
Charging
The charging procedure for Battery 1 was as follows:
1. The standpipe cap on the oven to be charged was manually
cleaned, closed, and luted. The aspiration steam was turned
on, the oven was put on the main, and the lids on charge
ports 1 and 3 were removed by mechanical (magnetic) lid
lifters on the larry car.
2. Hopper 1 was completely emptied and lid 1 was replaced.
Hopper 3 emptied while the aspiration steam was turned on
for the oven next lowest in number (this oven is fourth in
the pushing series and is called the jumper oven). Lid 3
for the jumper oven was removed. When hopper 3 completely
emptied, a jumper pipe connecting port 3 on the oven being
charged with port 3 on the jumper oven was put into place.
-------
8
3. Lid 2 was removed and hopper 2 began to empty and the larryman
called for the leveling bar. After hopper 2 was emptied,
the leveling completed and jumper pipe removed, lids 2 and
3 (one lid on the oven being charged and the other on the
jumper oven) were replaced.
4. All lids were luted and the aspiration steam turned off for
both ovens.
Aspiration steam pressure ranged between 8.4 and 9.8 kg/cm2 (120 and
140 psig) during charging. The pressure readings were taken from a
gauge located about 24 m (80 ft) east of the battery on a header pipe
that made a "T" connection at the battery. The actual pressure at
the oven was not known.
The jumper pipe often became red hot during use. The pipe was
distorted and its asbestos sealing rings at the jumper pipe - oven
port interfaces were in poor condition.
The aprons in hoppers 1 and 3 on the larry car for Battery 1
were missing. The partially corroded apron in hopper 2 was in place.
The charging procedure on Battery 2 was as follows:
1. The standpipe cap on the oven to be charged was manually
cleaned, closed, and luted. The aspiration steam was turned
on, the oven was put on the main, and lid 1 was removed
manually.
2. The larry car moved over port 1 and dropped coal from Hopper 1
through a stationary fill sleeve into the oven until the
hopper was empty. The bottom of the fill sleeves on the
larry car was about 15 to 20 cm (7 to 8 in) above the charge
ports. The larry car moved back and lid 1 was replaced and
luted.
-------
3. This same sequence was used for ports 4, 3 and 2, in that
order. Leveling was done after all ports had been charged.
Aspiration steam pressure ranged from 10.ft to 11.2 kg/cm2 (150 to
160 psig) during charging. The pressure readings were taken from a
gauge located about 24 m (80 ft) east of the battery on a header pipe
that made a "T" connection at the battery. Actual pressure at the
oven was not known.
The charging procedures on Batteries 5 and 6 (a single operating
unit) were not documented in detail, however, the following observations
were made:
1. The hoppers were discharged in the order 1, 4, 2 and 3.
2. The larry car was equipped with a jumper pipe which connected
port 3 on the oven being charged to port 3 on the oven two
ahead of the oven being charged (the oven next in the pushing
series). The larry car also had a smoke pipe which ran the
width of the larry car and connected the push side and coke
side charging ports.
3. All drop sleeves and the jumper pipe were equipped with
asbestos seals and made a reasonably close fit with the
oven ports.
Doors
During door inspections, door condition, and door and jamb cleaning
effectiveness were recorded for Battery 1 (Appendix B). Almost all
doors inspected after cleaning had deposits of hardened tar and carbon
that reduced or, in some cases, completely cut off the gas channel
passageway. The lower part of the coke side doors in particular,
-------
10
where the automatic door cleaning equipment was apparently out of
alignment and was not cleaning this area, had these deposits. Jambs
that were inspected after cleaning had fewer deposits than doors.
ABC was in the process of modifying the doors at Battery 1 to
permit better sealing. The door modifications include deeper gas
channels, knife edge adjusting bolts spaced every 10 cm (4 in) instead
of every 20 cm (8 in), and angled slots cut into the knife edge holder
to allow greater flexibility to adjust the knife edge. Some modified
doors were observed in use, but there were not enough of them to deter-
mine if they had fewer leaks. Although an accurate account of door
adjustments was not kept, at only one time during the inspection was
a workman observed adjusting a leaking door.
Collector main pressure for Battery 1 was maintained at 8 mm of
water during most of the survey. However, the pressure was lowered
to 6 mm of water around 10:00 a.m. on December 9. The result was a
reduction from 27% of doors leaking prior to 10:00 a.m. to 11% of
doors leaking after 10:00 a.m. [Table 2]. The pressure was later
(2:00 p.m.) raised to 7 mm and the door leakage rate went up slightly
to 11.5% [Table 2]. Collector main pressure was checked in the revers-
ing room, which is located at the bench level on the south end of
Battery 1.
A cardboard gasket was placed on the chuck door of Battery 1
after the oven was leveled. The Company reported that the gaskets
were used to reduce chuck door leaks. Some cardboard gaskets tended
to smolder and smoke.
Pushing
Coking times at ABC ranged from 24 to 26 hours. Flue temperatures
were requested, but not obtained during the inspection; the Company
requested that this information be obtained by letter. After one
-------
11
push where emissions exceeded 40% opacity, dark spots, indicating
possible oven cold spots, were observed on the oven walls.
In many cases, the coke face was only half the height of the
oven, but the coke height further into the oven was considerably higher
(3/4 oven height or greater). In one instance, coal height immediately
after charging reached the oven roof between ports 2 and 3. Although
the coal height in the oven could not be directly observed, the fact
that the coal reached the roof was evident from the emissions of fire
and smoke from port 3 until the oven was releveled.
VISIBLE EMISSION OBSERVATIONS
Methods
The visible emission observation methods used for charging, doors,
pushing and topsides are briefly described below. The methods are
completely described in Appendix C.
For charging, the inspector timed the number of seconds of visible
emissions >20% opacity during the charge* period. The inspector also
read the maximum opacity during the charge period.
For door emissions, the inspector began at either end of the
battery on either the push side or coke side and walked along a line
parallel with the battery -- a comfortable distance outside the pusher
machine or hot car tracks. As the inspector walked, he identified
the leaking doors. Once the inspector completed his traverse along
one side of the battery, he proceeded to the other side and made a
similar traverse.
* The charge period begins when coal is first introduced into an oven
and ends when the last charge port lid is replaced.
-------
12
For topside emissions, the inspector began at either end of the
battery and walked along the center of the battery top. In one direc-
tion he read lid leaks, and in the opposite direction standpipe leaks.
The inspector read standpipe leaks in the direction where the sun was
at his back.
For pushing, the inspector was located on the coke side of the
battery outside the hot car tracks in order to obtain a clear view.
The inspector timed the number of seconds of visible emissions >40%
during the push cycle.* The inspector also read the maximum opacity
from the time the coke in the oven began to move toward and into the
hot car, to the time all the coke was in the hot car.
The inspector made VEO's at battery stacks according to EPA
Method 9 as described in the Federal Register, Volume 39, No. 219,
November 12, 1974.
Results
In Table 1, the "Hourly Totals" column lists the cumulative times
charging emissions were >20% opacity for each hour on the hour (from
8:00-9:00, 9:00-10:00, etc.). The "Hourly Totals - Overlap Time"
column lists the cumulative times charging emissions were >20% opacity
during any 60-minute period, including overlapping 60-minute periods.
No "Hourly Totals" or "Hourly Totals Overlap Time" for Battery 1
exceeded the 240 seconds allowed for charging by Regulation 4.9.
Also, no "Totals" for Batteries 2, 5 and 6 exceeded the 180 seconds
allowed for charging by Regulation 4.9 for those batteries [Table 1].
* The push cycle begins when the coke side door is removed and ends
when the quench occurs.
-------
13
The percent of total doors leaking exceeded the 15% allowed by
the Regulation on Battery 1 for 7 out of 10 door inspections. On
Batteries 2, 5 and 6 the percent of leaking doors did not exceed the
15% limitation [Table 2].
All batteries had pushing emissions that exceeded 40% opacity
for more than one push per hour; the regulations allow one push per
hour to exceed 40% opacity [Table 3].
Topside leaks did not exceed the 10% allowed by the Regulation
for offtakes nor the 5% allowed for lids [Table 4].
EPA Method 9 stack emission observations were only made twice
during the survey. These two observations were conducted concurrently
for combustion stack 2 (serving Battery 2) and combustion stack 4
(serving Batteries 5 and 6) for one-half hour each. All five 6-minute
averages for stack 4 exceeded the 20% opacity standard of the Regulation.
Four of the five 6-minute averages for stack 2 exceeded 20% opacity
[Table 5].
Copies of actual readings are contained in Appendix D. Photographs
taken during readings are contained in Appendix E.

APPENDIX C
VISIBLE EMISSION OBSERVATION METHODS
-------
PROCEDURE FOR OBSERVING VISIBLE EMISSIONS EQUAL TO OR GREATER THAN 20Z
OPACITY DURING CHARGING
PRINCIPLE
The visible emissions equal to or greater than 202 opacity emitted
from the charging system and oven ports are timed by an observer located on
the topside of the battery. In addition, the maximum opacity observed-
during the charge period is recorded.
DEF:MITIO?IS
(a) Charging System - any apparatus used to introduce coal into a
coke oven (e.g., a larry car).
(b) Charge Period - the period of lime commencing when coal-starts
to enter the oven and ending when the lost charge port lid is replaced.
(c) Clean-up/Sedl Period - the period of time commencing when the
charge period enas and ending when the last chargs port lid is either dry-
or wet-sealed whichever is later. This period includes reopening the
lids and sweeoing spilled coal into the oven.
(d) Opacity - the degree to which emissions reduce the transmission
of light ana obscure the view of an object in the background.
-------
PROCEDURE
(a) Position - The observer stands on the topside of the battery
such that a good view of all charge ports of the oven being charged and
the charging system is possible. A position in the center of the bactery
at a distance of 10 to 15 ovens from the oven being charged is recommended.
However, the observer may move from side to side, going from pushside to
ccksside and back again.; standing in 3 sirgl-2 spct is not rscjirsc. IT
multiple observers are recording the same emissions, the observers should
be positioned as closely to each other as feasible; i.e., a situation where
oven 42 is being charged and one observer is positioned at oven 32 and,one
observer is positioned at oven 52, with the larry car between them, is not
acceptable. Observer position is recorded on the data sheet.
(b) Observations - During the charge period the observer watches all
the potential emission sources. For larry car charging the observer waicnas
the entire charging system, including the larry car hoppers, and the charge
ports. Upon observing any visible emission with an opacity eaual to or
greater than 20% opacity, as determined against any contrasting background,
an accumulative stopwatch is started. The watch is stopped when the visible
emission goes below 20% and is restarted when a visible emission equal to
or graater than 20% reappears. The observer continues this procedure for
th= entire period. Visible emissions equal to or greater than 20ซ may
occur simultaneously from several points; e.g., from around all drop
sleeves at the same time. In such a case the visible sessions are tiirea
collectively, not independently. Also visible emissions equal to or greater
than 20ป may start from ons source inimed lately after another source stops.
These are timed as one continuous visible emission equal to or greater
than 2Q%. The time recorded on the data sheet at the ena of the charge
period is the total time on the =topv;at:.n for that pciriccs. In addition
to the aoove, the observer also mentally notes the densest opacity occuring
during the charge period and at the end of tna period records on the data
sheet the maximum opacity observed.
-------
During some inspections, emissions during the clean=up/seal period
may also be required. Using a second accumulative stop-.ratch, the inspector
records the total enissicns ecual to or greater than 2Q% ooacity d'jrigg
this period, in a manner identical to that used for the charge period.
The following visible emissions are not timed:
(1) Steam vapor;
(2) Visible emissions from burning coal spilled on top of the oven
or oven lid;
(3) Visible emissions emitted from any equipment other than the
charging system or oven ports. Standpipe emissions should not be timed
during these periods;
(4) Visible emissions from coke oven doors which may rise above
the battery and which may be windblown across its topside; or
(5) Visible emissions that drift from the top of a larry car hooper,
but have already been timed as a visible emission from the drop sleeve
below the hopper.
Three stations will prooably be encountered:
1. Non-mechanical lifters; lidman. By definition, the charge
period enas when t.le iiaman slips the last lid onto tne oven port (wnether
or not the lid is properly or totally sealed). The clean-up/seal period
begins at this point and continues until the lids are either dry- or wet-
sealed, whichever is later. It is conceivaole, if wet-dealing is not used,
that no clean-up/seal period will exist.
2. Mechanical lifters; wee-sealing. In this case, the charge
pence ends .-/hen the last ".id is replaced mechanically by the larry car.
-------
The seal period begins at this point and ends when the test lid is
wet-sealed.
3. Mecnam'cal lifters; no wet-sealing. In this case, the charge
period ends when the larry car mechanically replaces the last lid. More
than likely, there will be no clean-up/seal period'in this situation. However,
if a lidman is present to reopen tne lias and sweep spilled coal into the
oven, or reseal the lids which are not properly replaced, the emissions^
equal to or greater than 20ป opacity during this period are timed as
clean-up emissions.
-------
PROCEDURE FOR OBSERVING VISIBLE EMISSIONS FROM COKE OVEN DOORS
PRINCIPLE
The coke oven doors that are leaking are recorded by an observer
making a traverse around the battery. In addition, the opacity at the
lintel of each leaking door is recorded.
DEFINITIONS
(a) Cokeside Doors - those doors on the side of a battery from which
pushed coke empties ir.to the hot car.
(b) Pushside Doors - those doors on the side of a battery where tne
pusher machine is lodated. Push side doors usually contain the chuck door.
(c) Chuck Door (or leveler bar door) - a small door on the pushsice
which is opened to allow the leveler bar to enter the oven and level codl
during charging.
(d) Jamb Leak - a leak which occurs between the oven bricK and the
jamb.
(e) Buckstay Leak - a leak which occurs between the buckstay and
the oven bric;\.
(f) Lintel - the area from just above the door to the edne of the
top of the battery.
-------
(g) Traverse - the movement from one end of the ba^tary to trie otr.ar,
inspecting all oปens in the battery.
PROCEDURE
(a) Position - The inspector makes his observations of door emissions
J..,:,,. , J. .- -.,..-- -r -1--- -~ i-U-L ---.._.... -- , ^r^j., -,J ,.-.._ ."I.-t., ...^ _._.
permit, but generally outside of the pusher machine or quench (hot) car
tracks. The inspector may move to a closer observation point to determine
the source of an emission.
(b) Observation - The inspector starts the observation v/ith an oven
at either end of tne battery and on either the pushsice or the cokeside of
the battery. The inspector observes and records any visible emissions from
a door. Visible emissions from the sealing edge around the perimeter of. a
door, or, in the case of the pushside, from the door and/or chuck doer a>-a
considered as door emissions. Visible emissions from structural leaks,
such a jambs, buckstay or lintel leaks, are not considered as door emissions.
After the inspector has made a visible Inspection of the perimeter for door
emissions, a single determination of the opacity of the door emissions is
made at a point above the door, using the battery as a background. This
area is commonly referred to as the lintel.
The inspector then moves to the adjacent door, if^.ssible, ana checks
for door emissions in a like manner. The inspector continues this procajure
down the entire length of the battery. If a temoorary machine obstruction
occurs blocking the view of a series of ovens, the inspector ,nay bypass
these ovens and continue down the remainder of the battery, returning to
chec:--. the- bypassed oven:- when that side has been completsa.
After the inspector has observed the doors on one side of a battery,
he prcceeds directly to the opposite sice of the battery. He again, starts
-------
at one end of the battery repeating the same procedures as for the previous
side.
A row of two or more continuous batteries is inspected battery by
battery and not, as e.g., all the pushsides and then all the cokeslces.
-------
PROCEDURE FOR OBSERVING VISIBLE EMISSIONS FROM TOPSIDE LEAKS
USING A MULTIPASS TRAVERSE
PRINCIPLE
The visible emissions emitted from offtake systems and charge port
. - lids arฐ :! ฐ--TV ice1 vis-j?.lly !r/ an observer s-skirg a ss:a-H^= tr=v*-sฃ
for the offtake system and for the charge port lids.
DEFINITIONS
(a) Offtake System - the apparatus for each oven that provides a
passage for gases from an oven to the collection main.
(b) Collection Main - the apparatus connected to one or more offtake
systems that provides a passage for conveying gases from the offtake
system to the byproduct plant cross-over collection main.
(c) Charge Port - Any opening in the topside of an oven, provicea
by a masonry casting.
(d) Chart Port Lid - any apparatus usea to cover an open charge
port.
(e) Stationary Jumper Pipe - any aoparatus permanently connecting
tv/o ovens for the purpose of increasing oven aspiration during charging.
(f) Decolonization Period - a period of time for corcausting oven
carbon that ccinr.encas when oven lids are removed from charge ports no
-------
no earlier than 30 minutes before tha even is pusiied anal ends with the
initiation of the next charge of that oven.
(g) Luting - a process by which charge port lids are wet-sealed to
retard escape of emissions to the atmosphere.
(h) Traverse - the movement from one end of the battery to the
other, inspecting all oven in the bat-eery."
(i) Significant Leak - any offtake system leak which is greater
than one ^nets1" in length.
(j) Total Leak - any offtake system or charge port lid leak.
PROCEDURE
(a) Position - The observer makes the observation from the topside
of :he battery, traversing the battery near the centerline. During the
traverse, the observer may stray from the center!ijpa of battery if the
observer believes an investigation is required to determine whether or
not a leak exists. If the observer does deviata from the batter/ center-
line during a traverse to look at a particular source, this is nctea on
the data sheet.
In Dsrforming a traverse, the inspector ooservas offtake system
leaxs in one direction and charge port lid leaks in the return traverse.
The offtake system leak traverse is conducted in the direction whe^e the
sun is most behind the inscector's back.
(b) Observations - The observer traverses the coke battery at a
sreacy pace, pausing or.iy to i7ic.ce appropriate entries on the data sheet.
The inspector ~ay use a stopwatch to reccrd the time required for the
-------
traverse. If the observer is delayed by the Tarry car, Jihe watch is
stopped and restarted. The time required for the traverse is recorded
on the data sheet.
The insoector should stand back far enough from the offtake system(s)
or charge port lids in order to provide a clear view of them. If for some
reason the centerline cannot be used to provide such a clear view, the
observer should select a viewing location on the topside further from
(rather than closer to) the units being inspected; this situation may
occur if the standpipes are extremely tall (greater than 15 feet). In
LJC!. -i~=~, '.j; sxu.r.pic, ti.ts -oscfiSr n.ay traverse aior.c cue cc?>cs:cc
edge in order to observe a pusnside offtake system. If a douole offtake
system battery has extremely tall offtakes, it is conceivable that two
traverses may be reauired for each run, i.e., one traverse along the
coke-side edge of topside to observe the pushside offtake system and'one
traverse along the pushside edge of topside to observe the cokeside
offtake system. In such a case, the two traverses may be required, whereas
a single traverse is preferred.
During any one traverse, the observer may record on the data sheet
total leaks from charg port lids, or may record total and significant
leaks from offtake systems (and stationary jumper pipes).
The numoers for all ovens with lids and offtakss open for dacarbon-
ization are noted on the data sneet with the appropriate comment. In
acdir.icn, if a leak from one of che open sources exists, the number of
significant and/or total leaks sre recorded in the appropriate columns
of che data sheet; however, the oven numoer is circled to indicate :ne
oven was decarbonising.
The following visible emissions are not recorded:
(1) Staam vapor;
(2) Coal smoldering on the topside; or
(3) Visible emissions from flue caps.
-------
PROCEDURE FOR OBSERVING VISIBLE EMISSIONS EQUAL TO OR GREATER THA,'.
OPACITY DURING PUSHING
PRINCIPLE
The visible emissions equal to or greater than yQ% opacity emitted
during the push cycle are timed by an observer located on the cokeside.
of the battery. In addition, the maximum opacity observed during the
coke fall period is recorded.
DEFINITIONS
(a) Push Cycle - the period of time commencing when the cokeside
oven door is removed and ending when the coke is quenched. Further, ths
pusn cycle is divided into three periods, as follows:
A
s
A to B = 1 : Period from time door comes off to t;s- start of
ram movement
B to C = 2: Period from time start of ram movement to time ill
coke is in hot car
C to 0 = 3: Period from time all coke is in hot car to time of
quench
(b) Coke Fall Period - the perioa of time B to C or 2, above.
-------
(c) Quench - cooling the red hot coke to a temperature below its
ignition temperature at the ciuench tov;er.
(d) Quench Tower - the structure, where the quench is carried cut,
normally made of wood or brick and designed to conduct the steam plume
generated during the quench into the atmosphere.
(e) Hot Car - the railroad car into which the coke is pushed; sometimes
called the quench car.
(f) Opacity - the degree to which emissions reduce the transmission
lig.-u and obscure the view of an object in the background.
PROCEjURE
(a) Position - The observer makes the observation from the cokeside
of the battery, where a clear view of the push can be obtained. In general,
a location on the ground, in the cokeside yard, outside the hot car tracks
approximately perpendicular to the observed oven i-s acceptable. However,
the observer is not restricted to being on the ground level, but may make
the observation from some elevated level. If multiple observers are re-
cording the same emissions, the observers should be positioned as closely
to each other as feasible. Observer position is recorded on the data sheet.
(b) Observations - During the oush cycle the observer watches all
the potential emission sources. These include the oven and the hot car.
U=on obser-'ns w -/icicle emission vri r.h sn ocacity eaual to or Greater
than VOX ooacity, as determined against any contrasting background, an
accusative stocwatch is started. The watch is stopped when the visible
emission goes below yC'i -.id i* .e5uart=a ,
-------
the three periods of the cycle or noting the time for ea*h period ana
recording on the data sheet while employing one or two stopwatches. The
time recorded on the data sheet at the end of each period is the total
time on the stopwatch for that period. In addition to the above, the
observer also mentally notes the densest opacity occjrring during the
coke fall period and at the end of the push cycle records or. the data
sheet the maximum opacity observed.
The following visible emissions are not timed:
(1) Steam vapor;
(2) Visible emissions generated from jamb cleaning;
(3) Visible emissions from the removed door; or
(4) Visible emissions from the pushside of the oven.
In some cases, coke battery operators will keep the stanapipe cap
open during the push cycle. These emissions should be regarded as pushing
emissions.
