What Must Be Monitored for Each Waelz Kiln or Electrotherntic Furnace?

              If NOT using a CEMS, measure these parameters...
                               United States
                               Environmental Protection
                               Agency
       Monthly mass of each carbon
       containing input material
       (e.g., zinc bearing material,
       flux materials, carbon electrodes) fed,
       charged, or introduced to each Waelz
       kiln or electrothermic furnace (tons)

       Carbon content of each input material
       (using three representative samples
       analyzed annually or using information
       provided by material supplier)
       (percent by weight)
 Operating hours for all Waelz kilns and
 electrothermic furnaces used in zinc
 production (hours)
 Monthly production quantity for each
 zinc product (tons)
                                 If using a CEMS:
     In addition to the monitoring requirements under 40 CFR subpart C
      for the Tier 4 Calculation Methodology, measure these parameters
                               on an annual basis..
       Facility production quantity for each
       zinc product (tons)

       Operating hours for all Waelz kilns and
       electrothermic furnaces used in zinc
       production (hours)
Monthly production quantity for each zinc
product (tons)
