Lime Manufacturing Monitoring Checklist Final Rule: Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse Gases What Must Be Monitored for Kilns? If NOT using a CEMS, measure these parameters... For determining the monthly emission factor for each type of lime produced: United States Environmental Protection Agency Calcium oxide content for each lime type (metric tons CaO/metric ton lime), analyzed monthly. Magnesium oxide content for each lime type (metric tons MgO/metric ton lime), analyzed monthly. For determining the monthly emission factor for each type of byproduct/waste sold (including lime kiln dust): Calcium oxide content for each solid lime byproduct/waste type (metric tons CaO/metric ton lime), analyzed monthly. Magnesium oxide content for each solid lime byproduct/waste type (metric tons MgO/metric ton lime), analyzed monthly. For determining annual CO2 emissions from each type of byproduct/waste that is not sold (including lime kiln dust and scrubber sludge): Calcium oxide content for each unsold lime byproduct/waste type (metric tons CaO/metric ton lime), analyzed annually. Magnesium oxide content for each unsold lime byproduct/waste type (metric tons MgO/metric ton lime), analyzed annually. For determining annual CO2 process emissions for all kilns: Annual weight or mass of unsold byproducts/wastes for each lime type (tons). Monthly weight or mass of each lime type produced (tons) Monthly weight or mass of byproducts/waste sold (such as lime kiln dust) for each lime type (tons) Lime Manufacturing Monitoring Checklist Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse Gases Page Iof2 40 CFR 98, Subpart S September 2009 ------- For all kilns combined (i.e., for the whole facility): Monthly amount of lime product sold, by type (tons) Monthly amount of lime byproduct/waste sold, by type (tons) Annual amount of CO2 captured for use in the onsite process (if applicable) Beginning and end of year inventories for each lime product Beginning and end of year inventories for lime byproducts/wastes Annual operating hours IfusingaCEMS: In addition to the monitoring requirements under 40 CFR subpart C for the Tier 4 Calculation Methodology, measure these parameters for each kiln... Annual amount of lime product sold, by type (tons) Annual amount of lime byproduct/waste sold, by type (tons) Annual amount of lime byproduct/waste not sold, by type (tons) Annual amount of lime product not sold, by type (tons) Beginning and end of year inventories for each lime product Beginning and end of year inventories for lime byproducts/wastes See also the information sheet for Lime Manufacturing (EPA-430-F-09-038R) at: www.epa.gov/climatechange/emissions/downloads/infosheets/limemanufacturing.pdf.
