                               EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
          Pursuant to the Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments (HSWA) enacted



on November 8, 1984, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is establishing



best demonstrated available technology {BDAT) treatment standards for the



listed wastes identified in HQ CFR 261,32 as KQ16, KQ18, K019, K020, and K030.



Compliance with these BDAT treatment standards is a prerequisite for placement



of these wastes in units designated as land disposal units according to HO CFR



Part 268.  The BDAT treatment standards will be effective as of August 8,



1988.







          This background document provides the Agency's rationale and techni-



cal support for selecting the constituents to be regulated in K016, K018,



K019, K020, and K030 wastes and for developing treatment standards for those



regulated constituents.  The document also provides waste characterization



information that serves as a basis for determining whether a variance may be



warranted for a particular waste having the same waste code as one of the five



wastes above but with characteristics such that the particular waste is more



difficult to treat than the waste for which the treatment standards have been



established.







          The introductory section, which appears verbatim in all the First



Third background documents, summarizes the Agency's legal authority and



promulgated methodology for establishing treatment standards and discusses the
                                     Vlll

petition process necessary for requesting a. variance from the treatment

standards.  The remainder of the document presents waste-specific informa-

tion—the number and locations of facilities affected by the land disposal

restrictions for K016, K018, K019, K020, and KQ30 wastes; the waste-generating

processes; characterization data; and the technologies used to treat the

wastes (or similar wastes) and available performance data, including data on

which the treatment standards are based.  The document also explains EPA's

determination of BDAT, selection of constituents to be regulated, and calcu-

lation of treatment standards.



          According to 40 CFR 261.32, waste codes K016, K018, K019, K020, and

K030, which are generated by the organic chemicals industry, are listed as

follows:


     K016:     Heavy ends or distillation residues from the production of
               carbon tetrachloride;

     K018:     Heavy ends from the fractionation column in ethyl chloride
               production;

     KQ19:     Heavy ends from the distillation of ethylene dichlorlde in
               ethylene dichloride production;

     K020:     Heavy ends from the distillation of vinyl chloride in vinyl
               chloride monomer production; and

     K030:     Column bottoms or heavy ends from the combined production of
               trichloroethylene and perchloroethylene.


The four digit Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) Code most often

reported for the industry generating these wastes is 2869.  The Agency esti-

mates that there are approximately 47 facilities that may generate wastes

identified as K016, K018, K019, K020, and K030.

-------
          The Agency is regulating a total of 2H organic constituents in K016,

K018, K019, K020, and K030 nonwastewaters and wastewaters.  (For trie purpose

of the land disposal restrictions rule, wastewaters are defined as wastes
                                                                    %
containing less than 1 percent (weight basis) total suspended solids  and less

than 1 percent (weight basis) total organic carbon (TOC).  Wastes not meeting

this definition are classified as nonwastewaters.)  Note that not all 24

constituents are being regulated in all five waste codes.  The BOAT treatment

standards for both nonwastewater and wastewater forms of KOI6, K018, K019t

K020, and K030 wastes are based on performance data from rotary kiln inciner-

ation of KOI9 waste.



          The following table lists the specific BOAT treatment standards for

each of the five wastes.  The treatment standards reflect the total concen-

tration of constituents in nonwastewaters and wastewaters.  The units for

total constituent concentration are mg/kg (parts per million on a weight-by-

weight basis) for the nonwastewaters and mg/1 (parts per million on a weight-

by-volume basis) for the wastewaters.  If the concentrations of the regulated

constituents in these wastes, as generated, are lower than or equal to the

treatment standards, treatment is not required prior to land disposal.



          Testing procedures for all sample analyses are specifically identi-

fied in Appendix D of this background document.
      The term "total suspended solids" (TSS) clarifies EPA's previously used
teminology of "total solids" and "filterable solids."  Specifically, total
suspended solids is measured by method 209C (Total suspended solids dried at
1Q3-1Q5°C) in Standard Methods for the Sxamination_of Water and Wastewater,
Sixteenth Edition.

1.0       INTRODUCTION







          This section of the background document presents a summary of the



legal authority pursuant to which the BOAT treatment standards were developed,



a summary of EPA13 promulgated methodology for developing BOAT, and finally a



discussion of the petition process that should be followed to request a



variance from the BOAT treatment standards.







1.1       Legal Background







1.1,1     Requirements Under HSWA







          The Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments of 198M (HSWA), which were



enacted on November 8, 198^1, and which amended the Resource Conservation and



Recovery Act of 1976 (RCRA), impose substantial new responsibilities on those



who handle hazardous waste.  In particular, the amendments require the Agency



to promulgate regulations that restrict the land disposal of untreated



hazardous wastes.   In its enactment of HSWA, Congress stated explicitly that



"reliance on land disposal should be minimized or eliminated, and land



disposal, particularly landfill and surface impoundment, should be the least



favored method for managing hazardous wastes" (RCRA section  1002(b)(7), 42



U.S.C. 6901
-------
unless "it has been demonstrated to the Administrator,  to a  reasonable degree



of certainty, that there will be no migration of hazardous constituents from



the disposal unit or injection zone for as long as the  wastes  remain hazard-



ous" (RCRA section 3004{d)(1), (e){1),  (g)(5),  42 U.S.C.  6924  (d)(1), (e)(l),
          For the purpose of the restrictions,  HSWA defines land disposal "to



include, but not be limited to, any placement of ...  hazardous waste in a



landfill, surface impoundment, waste pile,  injection well,  land treatment



facility, salt dome formation, salt bed formation,  or underground mine or



cave" (RCRA section 3Q04(k), 42 U.S.C. 6924(10).  Although HSWA defines land



disposal to include injection wells, such disposal  of solvents, dioxins, and



certain other wastes, known as the California List  wastes,  is covered on a



separate schedule {RCRA section 3004(f)(2), 42 U.S.C. 6924 (f)(2)}.  This



schedule requires that EPA develop land disposal restrictions for deep well



injection by August 8, 1988.







          The amendments also require the Agency to set "levels or methods of



treatment, if any, which substantially diminish the toxiclty of the waste or



substantially reduce the likelihood of migration of hazardous constituents



from the waste so that short-term and long-tern threats to human health and



the environment are minimized" {RCRA section 3004(m)(1), 42 U.S.C. 6924



(m)(D).  Wastes that meet treatment standards established by EPA are not



prohibited and may be land disposed.  In setting treatment standards for



listed or characteristic wastes, EPA may establish different standards for
                                      1-2

-------
particular wastes within a single waste code with differing treatability



characteristics.  One such characteristic is the physical form of the waste.



This frequently leads to different standards for wastewaters and nonwaste-



waters.







          Alternatively, EPA can establish a treatment standard that is



applicable to more than one waste code when, in EPA's Judgment, all the waste



can be treated to the same concentration.  In those instances where a genera-



tor can demonstrate that the standard promulgated for the generator's waste



cannot be achieved, the Agency also can grant a variance from a treatment



standard by revising the treatment standard for that particular waste through



rulemaking procedures.  (A further discussion of treatment variances is



provided in Section 1,3.)







          The land disposal restrictions are effective when promulgated unless



the Administrator grants a national variance and establishes a different date



(not to exceed 2 years beyond the statutory deadline) based on "the earliest



date on which adequate alternative treatment, recovery, or disposal capacity



which protects human health and the environment will be available" (RCRA



section 300M(h}(2)» H2 U.S.C. 692U (h)(2)).







          If EPA fails to set a treatment standard by the statutory deadline



for any hazardous waste in the First Third or Second Third of  the schedule



(see Section 1.1.2), the waste may not be disposed in a landfill or surface



impoundment unless the facility is in compliance with the minimum
                                       1-3

-------
technological requirements specified in section 3004(o) of RCRA.   In addition,

prior to disposal, the generator must certify to the Administrator that the

availability of treatment capacity has been investigated, and it has been

determined that disposal in a landfill or surface impoundment is the only

practical alternative to treatment currently available to the generator.  This

restriction on the use of landfills and surface impoundments applies until EPA

sets a treatment standard for the waste or until May 8, 1990, whichever is

sooner.  If the Agency fails to set a treatment standard for any ranked

hazardous waste by May 8, 1990, the waste is automatically prohibited from

land disposal unless the waste is placed in a land disposal unit that is the

subject of a successful "no migration" demonstration (RCRA section 3QCMl(g), 42

U.S.C, 6924(g)).  "No migration" demonstrations are based on case-specific

petitions that show there will be no migration of hazardous constituents from

the unit for aa long as the waste remains hazardous.



1,1.2     ScheduleforDevelopingRestrictions



          Under section 3004(g) of RCRA, EPA was required to establish a

schedule for developing treatment standards for all wastes that the Agency had

listed aa hazardous by November 8, 1984.  Section 3004(g) required that this

schedule consider the intrinsic hazards and volumes associated with each of

these wastes.  The statute required EPA to set treatment standards according

to the following schedule:
           1.   Solvents and dloxlns standards oust be promulgated by November
               8,  1986;

-------
          2.   The "California List" must be promulgated by July 8,  1987;

          3-   At least one-third of all listed hazardous wastes must be
               promulgated by August 8,  1988 (First Third);

          U.   At least two-thirds of all listed hazardous wastes must be
               promulgated by June 8, 1989 (Second Third); and

          5.   All remaining listed hazardous wastes and all hazardous wastes
               identified as of November 8,  1984, by one or more of the
               characteristics defined in ko CFR Part 261 must be promulgated
               by May 8, 1990 (Third Third).


          The statute specifically identified the solvent wastes as those

covered under waste codes FQQ1, F002, FOQ3f  FQ04, and F005; it identified  the

dioxin-containing hazardous wastes as those covered under waste codes F020,

F021, F022, and F023. •
          Wastes collectively known as the California List wastes, defined

under section 3004(d) of HSHA, are liquid hazardous wastes containing metals,

free cyanides, PCBs, corrosives (i.e., a pH less than or equal to 2.0), and

any liquid or nonliquid hazardous waste containing halogenated organic com-

pounds (HOCs) above 0.1 percent by weight.  Rules for the California List were

proposed on December 11, 1986, and final rules for PCBs, corrosives, and

HOC-containing wastes were established August 12, 1987.  In that rule, EPA

elected not to establish standards for metals.  Therefore, the statutory

limits became effective.



          On May 28, 1986, EPA published a final rule (51 FR  19300) that

delineated the specific waste codes that would be addressed by the First
                                       1-5

-------
Third, Second Third, and Third Third.  This schedule is incorporated Into
40 CFR 268.10, 268.11, and 268.12.

1.2       Summary of Promulgated BDftTMethodology

          In a November 7, 1986 rulemaking, EPA promulgated a technology-based
approach to establishing treatment standards under section 3004(ra).  Section
30(W(m) also specifies that treatment standards must "minimize" long- and
short-term threats to human health and the environment arising from land
disposal of hazardous wastes.

          Congress indicated in the legislative history accompanying the HSHft
that (t)he requisite levels of (sic) methods of treatment established by the
ftgency should be the best that has been demonstrated to be achievable," noting
that the intent is "to require utilization of available technology" and not a
"process which contemplates technology-foreing standards"  (Vol. 130 Cong.
See. S9178 (daily ed., July 25, 1981)).  EPA has interpreted this legislative
history as suggesting that Congress considered the requirement under section
300H(m) to be met by application of the best demonstrated and achievable
(l-6** 4yail.able) technology prior to land disposal of wastes or treatment
residuals,  accordingly, EPA's treatment standards are generally based on the
performance of the best demonstrated available technology (BDAT) identified
for treatment of the hazardous constituents.  This approach involves the
identification of potential treatment systems, the determination of whether
they are demonstrated and available, and the collection of treatment data from
well-designed and well-operated systems.
                                      1-6

-------
          The treatment standards,  according to the statute,  can represent



levels or methods of treatment,  if any, that substantially diminish the



toxicity of the waste or substantially reduce the likelihood  of migration of



hazardous constituents.  Wherever possible,  the Agency prefers to establish



BDAT treatment standards as "levels" of treatment (i.e., performance stan-



dards), rather than adopting an approach that would require the use of spe-



cific treatment "methods,"  EPA believes that concentration-based treatment



levels offer the regulated community greater flexibility to develop and



implement compliance strategies, as well as an incentive to develop innovative



technologies.







1.2.1     Haste Treatability Group







          In developing the treatment standards, EPA first characterizes the



waste(s).  As necessary, EPA may establish treatability groups for wastes



having similar physical and chemical properties.  That is, If EPft believes



that wastes represented by different waste codes could be treated to similar



concentrations using identical technologies, the Agency combines the codes



into one treatability group.  EPA generally considers wastes to be similar



when they are both generated from the same industry and from similar process-



ing stages.  In addition, EPA may combine two or more separate wastes into the



same treatability group when data are available showing that the waste charac-



teristics affecting performance are similar or that one waste would be



expected to be less difficult to treat.
                                       1-7

-------
          Once the treatability groups have been established, EPA collects and



analyzes data on identified technologies used to treat the wastes in each



treatability group.  The technologies evaluated must be demonstrated on the



waste or a similar waste and must be available for use.







1.2.2     Demonstratedand Available Treatment Technologies







          Consistent with legislative history, EPA considers demonstrated



technologies to be those that are used to treat the waste of interest or a



similar waste with regard to parameters that affect treatment selection (see



November 7, 1986, 51 FR 40588).  EPA also will consider as treatment those



technologies used to separate or otherwise process chemicals and other materi-



als.  Some of these technologies clearly are applicable to waste treatment,



since the wastes are similar to raw materials processed in industrial applica-



tions.







          For most of the waste treatability groups for which EPA will promul-



gate treatment standards, EPA will identify demonstrated technologies either



through review of literature related to current waste treatment practices or



on the basis of information provided by specific facilities currently treating



the waste or similar wastes.







          In cases where the Agency does not  identify any facilities treating



wastes represented by a particular waste treatability group, EPA may transfer



a finding of demonstrated treatment.  To do this, EPA will compare  the
                                       1-8

-------
parameters affecting treatment selection for the waste treatability group of



interest to other wastes for which demonstrated technologies already have been



determined.  The parameters affecting treatment selection and their use for



this waste are described in Section 3.2 of this document.  If the parameters



affecting treatment selection are similar, then the Agency will consider the



treatment technology also to be demonstrated for the waste of interest.  For



example, EPA considers rotary kiln incineration to be a demonstrated tech-



nology for many waste codes containing hazardous organic constituents, high



total organic content, and high filterable solids content, regardless of



whether any facility is currently treating these wastes.  The basis for this



determination is data found in literature and data generated by EPA confirming



the use of rotary kiln incineration on wastes having the above characteris-



tics.







          If no commercial treatment or recovery operations are identified for



a waste or wastes with similar physical or chemical characteristics that



affect treatment selection, the Agency will be unable to identify any demon-



strated treatment technologies for the waste, and, accordingly, the waste will



be prohibited from land disposal (unless handled in accordance with the



exemption and variance provisions of the rule).  The Agency is, however,



committed to establishing treatment standards as soon as new or improved



treatment processes are demonstrated (and available).







          Operations only available at research facilities, pilot- and bench-



scale operations, will not be considered in  identifying demonstrated treatment
                                       1-9

-------
technologies for a waste because these technologies would not necessarily be



"demonstrated."  Nevertheless,  EPA may use data generated at research facili-



ties in assessing the performance of demonstrated technologies.







          As discussed earlier, Congress intended that technologies used to



establish treatment standards under section 3004(ra) be not only  "demon-



strated," but also available.  To decide whether demonstrated technologies may



be considered "available," the Agency determines whether they (1) are commer-



cially available and (2) substantially diminish the toxieity of the waste or



substantially reduce the likelihood of migration of hazardous constituents



from the waste.







          EPA will only set treatment standards based on a technology that



meets the above criteria.  Thus, the decision to classify a technology as



"unavailable" will have a direct impact on the treatment standard.  If the



best technology is unavailable, the treatment standard will be based on the



next best treatment technology determined to be available.  To the extent that



the resulting treatment standards are less stringent, greater concentrations



of hazardous constituents in the treatment residuals could be placed in land



disposal units.







          There also may be circumstances in which EPA concludes that for a



given waste none of the demonstrated treatment technologies are "available"



for purposes of establishing the 300^(0) treatment performance standards.



Subsequently, these wastes will be prohibited from continued placement in or
                                      1-10

-------
on the land unless managed in accordance with applicable exemptions and



variance provisions.  The Agency is, however, committed to establishing new



treatment standards as soon as new or improved treatment processes become



"available."







          (1)  Proprietary or Patented Processes.   If the demonstrated treat-



ment technology is a proprietary or patented process that is not generally



available, EPA will not consider the technology in its determination of the



treatment standards.  EPA will consider proprietary or patented processes



available if it determines that the treatment method can be purchased or



licensed from the proprietor or is a commercially available treatment.  The



services of the commercial facility offering this technology often can be



purchased even if the technology itself cannot be purchased.







          (2)  Substantial Treatment.  To be considered "available," a demon-



strated treatment technology must "substantially diminish the toxiclty" of the



waste or "substantially reduce the likelihood of migration of hazardous



constituents" from the waste in accordance with section 3004(m).  By requiring



that substantial treatment be achieved in order to set a treatment standard,



the statute ensures that all wastes are adequately treated before being placed



in or on the land and ensures that the Agency does not require a treatment



method that provides little or no environmental benefit.  Treatment will



always be deemed substantial if it results in nondetectable levels of the



hazardous constituents of concern.  If nondetectable levels are not achieved,



then a determination of substantial treatment will be made on a case-by-case
                                      1-11

-------
basis.  This approach is necessary because of the difficulty of establishing a

meaningful guideline that can be applied broadly to the many wastes and tech-

nologies to be considered,  EPA will consider the following factors in an

effort to evaluate whether a technology provides substantial treatment on a

case-by-case basis:


               (a)  Number and types of constituents treated;

               (b)  Performance (concentration of the constituents in the
                    treatment residuals); and

               (c)  Percent of constituents removed.


          If none of the demonstrated treatment technologies achieve substan-

tial treatment of a waste, the Agency cannot establish treatment standards for

the constituents of concern in that waste.



1.2.3     Collection of Performance Data



          Performance data on the demonstrated available technologies are

evaluated by the Agency to determine whether the data are representative of

well-designed and well-operated treatment systems.  Only data from well-

designed and well-operated systems are included in determining BOAT. The data

evaluation includes data already collected directly by EPA and/or data pro-

vided by industry.  In those instances where additional data are needed to

supplement existing information, EPA collects additional data through a

sampling and analysis program.  The principal elements of this data collection

program are:
                                      1-12

-------
          (1)  Identification of facilities for site visits,
          (2)  Engineering site visit,
          (3)  Sampling and Analysis Plan,
          (4)  Sampling visit, and
          (5)  Onsite Engineering Report.


          H)  Identification of facilities for Site Visits.   To identify

facilities that generate and/or treat the waste of concern,  EPA uses a number

of information sources.  These include Stanford Research Institute's Directory

of Chemical Producers; EPA's Hazardous Waste Data Management System (HWDMS);

the 1986 Treatment, Storage, Disposal Facility (TSDF) National Screening

Survey; and EPA's Industry Studies Data Base.  In addition,  EPA contacts trade

associations to inform them that the Agency is considering visits to facili-

ties in their industry and to solicit their assistance in identifying facili-

ties for EPA to consider in its treatment sampling program.



          After identifying facilities that treat the waste,  EPA uses this

hierarchy to select sites for engineering visits:


          (1)  generators treating single wastes on site;
          (2)  generators treating multiple wastes together on site;
          (3)  commercial treatment, storage, and disposal facilities (TSDFs);
               and
               EPA in-house treatment.
          This hierarchy is based on two concepts:
          (1)  to the extent possible, EPA should develop treatment standards
               from data produced by treatment facilities handling only a
               single waste, and

          (2)  facilities that routinely treat a specific waste have had the
               best opportunity to optimize design parameters.  Although
               excellent treatment can occur at many facilities that are not
               high in this hierarchy, EPA has adopted this approach to avoid,
                                      1-13

-------
               when possible, ambiguities related to the mixing of wastes
               before and during treatment.


          When possible, the Agency will evaluate treatment technologies using

commercially operated systems.  If performance data from properly designed and

operated commercial treatment methods for a particular waste or a waste Judged

to be similar are not available, EPA may use data from research facilities

operations.  Whenever research facility data are used, EPA will explain in the

preamble and background document why such data were used and will request

comments on the use of such data,



          Although EPA's data bases provide information on treatment for

individual wastes, the data bases rarely provide data that support the selec-

tion of one facility for sampling over another.  In cases where several

treatment sites appear to fall into the same level of the hierarchy, EPA

selects sites for visits strictly on the basis of which facility could most

expeditiously be visited and later sampled if Justified by the engineering

visit.



          (2)  Engineering Site Vis^it.  Once a treatment facility has been

selected, an engineering site visit is made to confirm that a candidate for

sampling meets EPA's criteria for a well-designed facility and to ensure that

the necessary sampling points can be accessed to determine operating parame-

ters and treatment effectiveness.  During the visit, EPA also confirms that

the facility appears to be well operated, although the actual operation of the

treatment system during sampling is the basis for EPA'3 decisions regarding
                                       1-14

-------
proper operation of the treatment unit.  In general, the Agency considers a



well-designed facility to be one that contains the unit operations necessary



to treat the various hazardous constituents of the waste, as well as to



control other nonhazardous materials in the waste that may affect treatment



performance.







          In addition to ensuring that a system is reasonably well designed,



the engineering visit examines whether the facility has a way to measure the



operating parameters that affect performance of the treatment system during



the waste treatment period.  For example, EPA may choose not to sample a



treatment system that operates in a continuous node, for which an important



operating parameter cannot be continuously recorded.  In such systems, instru-



mentation is important in determining whether the treatment system is operat-



ing at design values during the waste treatment period.







          (3)  Samp11ng and ftnalyais Plan.  If after the engineering site



visit the Agency decides to sample a particular plant, the Agency will then



develop a site-specific Sampling and Analysis Plan  (SAP) according to the



Generic Quality Assurance Project Plan for the Land Disposal Restriction



Program ("BOAT"), EPA/530-SW-87-011.  In brief, the SAP discusses where the



Agency plans to sample, how the samples will be taken, the frequency of



sampling, the constituents to be analyzed and the method of analysis, opera-



tional parameters to be obtained, and specific laboratory quality control



checks on the analytical results.
                                       1-15

-------
          The Agency will generally produce a draft of the site-specific



Sampling and Analysis Plan within 2 to 3 weeks of the engineering visit.  The



draft of the SAP is then sent to the plant for review and comment.   With few



exceptions, the draft SAP should be a confirmation of data collection activi-



ties discussed with the plant personnel during the engineering site visit.



EPA encourages plant personnel to recommend any modifications to the SAP that



they believe will improve the quality of the data.







          It is important to note that sampling of a plant by EPA does not



mean that the data will be used in the development of treatment standards for



BOAT.  EPA's final decision on whether to use data from a sampled plant



depends on the actual analysis of the waste being treated and on the operating



conditions at the time of sampling.  Although EPft would not plan to sample a



facility that was not ostensibly well designed and well operated, there is no



way to ensure that at the time of the sampling the facility will not experi-



ence operating problems.  Additionally, EPA statistically compares its  test



data to suitable industry-provided data, where available, in its determination



of what data to use in developing treatment standards.  The methodology for



comparing data is presented later in this section,







          (Note:  Facilities wishing to submit data for consideration in  the



development of BOAT standards should, to the extent possible, provide sampling



information similar to that acquired by EPA.  Such facilities should review



the Generic Quality Assurance Project Plan for the Land Disposal Restriction



Program ("BOAT"), which delineates all of the quality control and quality
                                       1-16

-------
assurance measures associated with sampling and analysis.  (Quality assurance



and quality control procedures are summarized in Section 1.2.6 of this



document. )
               Sampling Visit.  The purpose of the sampling visit is to



collect samples that characterize the performance of the treatment system and



to document the operating conditions that existed during the waste treatment



period.  At a minimum, the Agency attempts to collect sufficient samples of



the untreated waste and solid and liquid treatment residuals so that variabil-



ity in the treatment process can be accounted for in the development of the



treatment standards.  To the extent practicable, and within safety con-



straints, EPft or its contractors collect all samples and ensure that chain-



of -custody procedures are conducted so that the integrity of the data is



maintained.







          In general, the samples collected during the sampling visit will



have already been specified in the SAP.  In some instances, however, EPA will



not be able to collect all planned samples because of changes in the facility



operation or plant upsets; EPA will explain any such deviations from the SAP



in Its follow-up Onslte Engineering Report.







          (5)  Ons ite Engineering Report.  EPA summarizes all its data collec-



tion activities and associated analytical results for testing at a facility in



a report referred to as the Onsite Engineering Report (OER).  This report



characterizes the waste(s) treated, the treated residual concentrations, the
                                       1-17

-------
design and operating data, and all analytical results Including methods used



and accuracy results.  This report also describes any deviations from EPA's



suggested analytical methods for hazardous wastes {see Test Methods for



Evaluating Solid Waste, SW-846, Third Edition, November 1986),







          After the Onsite Engineering Report is completed, the report is



submitted to the plant for review.  This review provides the plant with a



final opportunity to claim any information contained in the report as confi-



dential.  Following the review and incorporation of comments, as appropriate,



the report is made available to the public with the exception of any material



claimed as confidential by the plant.







1.2.4     Hazardous Constituents Considered and Selected for Regulation







          (1)  Development of BOAT List.  The list of hazardous constituents



within the waste codes that are targeted for treatment is referred to by the



Agency as the BOAT constituent list.  This list, provided as Table 1-1, is



derived from the constituents presented in 40 CFR Part 261, Appendices VII and



VIII, as well as several  ignitable constituents used as the basis of listing



wastes as F003 and F005.  These sources provide a comprehensive list of



hazardous constituents specifically regulated under RCRA.  The BOAT list



consists of those constituents that can be analyzed using methods published  in



SW-846, Third Edition.

-------
          The initial BOAT constituent list was published in EPA'3 Generic



Quality Assurance Project Plan, March 1987 (EPA/530-SW-87-011).   Additional



constituents will be added to the BOAT constituent list as more key constitu-



ents are identified for specific waste codes or as new analytical methods are



developed for hazardous constituents.  For example, since the list was pub-



lished in March 1987, 18 additional constituents (hexavalent chromium, xylenes



(all three isomers), benzal chloride, phthalic anhydride, ethylene oxide,



acetone, n-butyl alcohol, 2-ethoxyethanol, ethyl acetate, ethyl benzene, ethyl



ether, methanol, methyl isobutyl ketone, 2-nitropropane, 1,1,2-trichloro-



1,2,2- trifluoroethane, and cyclohexanone) have been added to the list.







          Chemicals are listed in Appendix VIII if they are shown in scien-



tific studies to have toxic, carcinogenic, mutagenic, or teratogenic effects



on humans or other life-forms, and they include such substances as those



identified by the Agency's Carcinogen Assessment Group as being carcinogenic.



Including a constituent in Appendix VIII means that the constituent can be



cited as a basis for listing toxic wastes.







          Although Appendix VII, Appendix VIII, and the F003 and F005  igni-



tables provide a comprehensive list of RCRA-regulated hazardous constituents,



not all of the constituents can be analyzed in a complex waste matrix.



Therefore, constituents that could not be readily analyzed in an unknown waste



matrix were not included on the initial BDAT list.  As mentioned above,



however, the BDAT constituent  list is a continuously growing  list that does
                                       1-26

-------
not preclude the addition of new constituents when analytical methods are

developed.



          There are five major reasons that constituents were not included on

the BOAT constituent list:
          1,   Constituents are unstable.  Based on their chemical structure,
               some constituents will either decompose in water or will
               ionize.  For example, maleic anhydride will form maleic acid
               when it comes in contact with water and copper cyanide will
               ionize to form copper and cyanide ions.  However, EPA may
               choose to regulate the decomposition or lonization products.

          2.   EPA-approved or verified analytical methods are not available.
               Many constituents, such as 1,3i5~trinitrobenzene, are not
               measured adequately or even detected using any of EPA's analyt-
               ical methods published in SW-846 Third Edition.

          3.   The constituent is a member of a chemical group designated in
               Appendix VIII as not otherwise specified (N.O.S.).  Constitu-
               ents listed as N.O.S., such as chlorinated phenols, are a
               generic group of some types of chemicals for which a single
               analytical procedure is not available.  The individual members
               of each such group need to be listed to determine whether the
               constituents can be analyzed.  For each N.O.S. group, all those
               constituents that can be readily analyzed are included in the
               BOAT constituent list.

          4.   Available analytical procedures are not appropriate for a
               complex waste matrix.  Some compounds, such as auramine, can be
               analyzed as a pure constituent.  However, in the presence of
               other constituents, the recommended analytical method does not_
               positively identify the constituent.  The use of high pressure
               liquid chromatography (HPLC) presupposes a high expectation of
               finding the specific constituents of interest.  In using this
               procedure to screen samples, protocols would have to be devel-
               oped on a case-specific basis to verify the identity of con-
               stituents present in the samples.  Therefore, HPLC is not an
               appropriate analytical procedure for complex samples containing
               unknown constituents.

          5.   Standards for analytical instrument calibration are not commer-
               cially available.  For several constituents, such as
               faenz(o)acridine, commercially available standards of a "reason-
               ably" pure grade are not available.  The unavailability of a
                                      1-27

-------
               standard was determined by a. review of catalogs from specialty
               chemical manufacturers.
Two constituents (fluoride and sulfide) are not specifically included in

Appendices VII and VIII; however, these compounds are included on the BOAT

list as indicator constituents for compounds from Appendices VII and VIII such

as hydrogen fluoride and hydrogen sulfide, which ionize in water.



          The BOAT constituent list presented in Table 1-1 is divided into the

following nine groups:


          o    Volatile organics;
          o    Senivolatile organics;
          o    Metals;
          o    Other inorganics;
          o    Organochlorine pesticides;
          o    Phenoxyacetic acid herbicides;
          o    Organophosphorous insecticides;
          o    PCBs;  and
          o    Dioxins and furans.


The constituents were placed in these categories based on their chemical

properties.  The constituents in each group are expected to behave similarly

during treatment and are also analy2ed, with the exception of the metals and

inorganics, by using the same analytical methods.



          (2)  Constituent Selection Analyses.  The constituents that the

Agency selects for regulation in each treatability group are, in general,

those found in the untreated wastes at treatable concentrations.  For certain

waste codes, the target list for the untreated waste nay have been shortened
                                       1-28

-------
(relative to analyses performed to test treatment technologies) because of the



extreme unlikelihood that the constituent will be present.







          In selecting constituents for regulation, the first step is to



summarize all the constituents that were found in the untreated waste at



treatable concentrations.  This process involves the use of the statistical



analysis of variance (ANOVA) test, described in Section 1.2.6, to determine if



constituent reductions were significant.  The Agency interprets a significant



reduction in concentration as evidence that the technology actually "treats"



the waste.







          There are some instances where EPA may regulate constituents that



are not found in the untreated waste but are detected in the treated residual.



This is generally the case where presence of the constituents in the untreated



waste interferes with the quantification of the constituent of concern.  In



such instances, the detection levels of the constituent are relatively high,



resulting in a finding of "not detected" when, in fact, the constituent is



present in the waste.







          After determining which of the constituents in the untreated waste



are present at treatable concentrations, EPA develops a list of potential



constituents for regulation.  The Agency then reviews this list to determine



if any of these constituents can be excluded from regulation because they



would be controlled by regulation of other constituents in the list.
                                       1-29

-------
          EPA performs this indicator analysis for two reasons:  (1)  it reduces



the analytical cost burdens on the treater and (2) it facilitates implementa-



tion of the compliance and enforcement program,  EPA's rationale for selection



of regulated constituents for this waste code is presented in Section 6,0 of



this background document.







          (3)  Calculation of Standards.  The final step in the calculation of



the BDAT treatment standard is the multiplication of the average treatment



value by a factor referred to by the Agency as the variability factor.  This



calculation takes into account that even well-designed and well-operated



treatment systems will experience some fluctuations in performance.   EPA



expects that fluctuations will result from inherent mechanical limitations in



treatment control systems, collection of treated samples, and analysis of



these samples.  All of the above fluctuations can be expected to occur at



well-designed and well-operated treatment facilities.  Therefore, setting



treatment standards utilizing a variability factor should be viewed not as a



relaxing of section 3004{m) requirements, but rather as a function of the



normal variability of the treatment processes.  A treatment facility will have



to be designed to meet the mean achievable treatment performance level to



ensure that the performance levels remain within the limits of the treatment



standard.







          The Agency calculates a variability factor for each constituent of



concern within a waste treatability group using the statistical calculation



presented in Appendix A.  The equation for calculating the variability factor
                                      1-30

-------
is the same as that used by EPA for the development of numerous regulations in



the Effluent Guidelines Program under the Clean Water Act.  The variability



factor establishes the instantaneous maximum based on the 99th percentile



value,







          There is an additional step in the calculation of the treatment



standards in those instances where the ANQVA analysis shows that more than one



technology achieves a level of performance that represents BOAT,  In such



instances, the BOAT treatment standard is calculated by first averaging the



mean performance value for each technology for each constituent of concern and



then multiplying that value by the highest variability factor among the



technologies considered.  This procedure ensures that all the SDAT technolo-



gies used as the basis for the standards will achieve full compliance.







1.2.5     CompliancewithPerformance Standards







          All the treatment standards reflect performance achieved by the best



demonstrated available technology (BOAT).  As such, compliance with these



standards requires only that the treatment level be achieved prior to land



disposal.  It does not require the use of any particular  treatment technology.



Wills dilution of the waste as a means to comply with the standard is prohib-



ited, wastes that are generated in such a way as to naturally meet the stan-



dard can be land disposed without treatment.  With the exception of treatment



standards that prohibit land disposal, all treatment standards proposed are



expressed as a concentration level.

-------
          EPA has used both total constituent concentration and TCLP analyses
of the treated waste as a measure of technology performance.   EPA's rationale
for when each of these analytical tests is used is explained in the following
discussion.

          For all organic constituents, EPA is basing the treatment standards
on the total constituent concentration found in the treated waste.  EPA based
its decision on the fact that technologies exist to destroy the various
organics compounds.  Accordingly, the best measure of performance would be the
extent to which the various organic compounds have been destroyed or the total
amount of constituent remaining after treatment,  (NOTE:  EPA's land disposal
restrictions for solvent waste codes FQ01-FOQ5 (51 FR 40572} use the TCLP
value as a measure of performance.  At the tine that EPA promulgated the
treatment standards for F001-FOQ5, useful data were not available on total
constituent concentrations in treated residuals and, as a result, the TCLP
data were considered-to be the best measure of performance.)

          For all metal constituents, EPA is using both total constituent
concentration and/or the TCLP as the basis for treatment standards.  The total
constituent concentration is being used when the technology basis includes a
metal recovery operation.  The underlying principle of metal recovery is the
reduction of the amount of metal in a waste by separating the metal for
recovery; therefore, total constituent concentration in the treated residual
is an important measure of performance for this technology.  Additionally, EPA
also believes that it is important that any remaining metal in a treated
                                       1-32

-------
residual waste not be in a state that is easily leaehable;  accordingly,  EPA is

also using the TCLP as a measure of performance.   It is important to note that

for wastes for which treatment standards are based on a metal recovery pro-

cess, the facility has to comply with both the total constituent concentration

and the TCLP prior to land disposal.



          In cases where treatment standards for metals are not based on

recovery techniques but rather on stabilization,  EPA is using only the TCLP as

a measure of performance.  The Agency's rationale is that stabilization is not

meant to reduce the concentration of metal in a waste but only to chemically

minimize the ability of the metal to leach.



1.2.6     Identification of BDftT



          (1)  Screeningof Treatment Data.  This section explains how the

Agency determines which of the treatment technologies represent treatment by

BDAT,  The first activity is to screen the treatment performance data from

each of the demonstrated and available technologies according to the following

criteria:
          1.   Design and operating data associated with the treatment data
               must reflect a well-designed, well-operated system for each
               treatment data point.  (The specific design and operating
               parameters for each demonstrated technology for this waste code
               are discussed in Section 3.2 of this document.)

          2,   Sufficient QA/QC data must be available to determine the true
               values of the data from the treated waste.  This screening
               criterion involves adjustment of treated data to take into
               account that the type value may be different from the measured
               value.  This discrepancy generally is caused by other
                                      1-33

-------
               constituents in the waste that can mask results or otherwise
               interfere with the analysis of the constituent of concern.

          3.   The measure of performance must be consistent with EPA's
               approach to evaluating treatment by type of constituents {e.g.,
               total concentration data for organies,  and tocal concentration
               and TCLP for metals in the leachate from the residual).


          In the absence of data needed to perform the screening analysis,  EPA

will make decisions on a case-by-case basis as to whether to include the data.

The factors included in this case-by-case analysis will be the actual treat-

ment levels achieved, the availability of the treatment data and their com-

pleteness (with respect to the above criteria), and EPA's assessment of

whether the untreated waste represents the waste code of concern.  EPA's

application of these screening criteria for this waste code is provided In

Section 5.0 of this background document.



          (2)  Comparison of TreatinentJ)ata.  In cases in which EPA has

treatment data from more than one technology following the screening activity,

EPA uses the statistical method known as analysis of variance (ANQVA) to

determine if one technology performs significantly better than the others.

This statistical method (summarized in Appendix A) provides a measure of the

differences between two data seta.  If EPA finds that one technology performs

significantly better (i.e., the data sets are not homogeneous), BOAT treatment

standards are the level of performance achieved by the best technology multi-

plied by the corresponding variability factor for each regulated constituent,



          If the differences in the data sets are not statistically signifi-

cant, the data seta are said to be homogeneous.  Specifically, EPA uses the


                                       1-34

-------
analysis of variance to determine whether BOAT represents a level of perfor-



mance achieved by only one technology or represents a level of performance



achieved by more than one (or all) of the technologies.  If the Agency finds



that the levels of performance for one or more technologies are not statisti-



cally different, EPA averages the performance values achieved by each technol-



ogy and then multiplies this value by the largest variability factor associ-



ated with any of the acceptable technologies.  A detailed discussion of the



treatment selection method and an example of how EPA chooses BOAT from multi-



ple treatment systems is provided in Section A-1.







          (3) Quality assurance/quality Control.  This section presents the



principal quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) procedures employed In



screening and adjusting the data to be used In the calculation of treatment



standards.  Additional QA/QC procedures used in collecting and screening data



for the BOAT program are presented in EPA's Generic Quality Assurance Project



Plan for Land Disposal Restrictions Program ("BOAT") (EPA/530-SW-87-Q11, March



1987).







          To calculate the treatment standards for the Land Disposal Restric-



tion Rules, It  is first necessary to determine the recovery value for each



constituent (the amount of constituent recovered after spiking, which is the



addition of a known amount of the constituent, minus the initial concentration



in the samples  divided by the amount added) for a spike of the treated resi-



dual.  Once the recovery value is determined, the following procedures are
                                       1-35

-------
used to select the appropriate percent recovery value to adjust the analytical

data:
          1.   If duplicate spike recovery values are available for the
               constituent of interest, the data are adjusted by the lowest
               available percent recovery value {i.e., the value that will
               yield the most conservative estimate of treatment achieved).
               However, if a spike recovery value of less than 20 percent is
               reported for a specific constituent, the data are not used to
               set treatment standards because the Agency does not have
               sufficient confidence in the reported value to set a national
               standard.

          2,   If data are not available for a specific constituent but are
               available for an isoner, then the spike recovery data are
               transferred from the isoner and the data are adjusted using the
               percent recovery selected according to the procedure described
               in (1) above,

          3.   If data are not available for a specific constituent but are
               available for a similar class of constituents (e.g., volatile
               organics, acid-extractabie semivolatiles), then spike recovery
               data available for this class of constituents are transferred.
               All spike recovery values greater than or equal to 20 percent
               for a spiked sample are averaged and the constituent concentra-
               tion is adjusted by the average recovery value.  If spiked
               recovery data are available for more than one sample, the
               average is calculated for each sample and the data are adjusted
               by the lowest average value.

          4.   If matrix spike recovery data are not available for a set of
               data to be used to calculate treatment standards, then matrix
               spike recovery data are transferred from a waste that the
               Agency believes is a similar matrix (e.g., If the data are for
               an aah from incineration, then data from other incinerator
               ashes could be used).  While EPA recognizes that transfer of
               matrix spike recovery data from a similar waste is not an exact
               analysis, this is considered the beat approach for adjusting
               the data to account for the fact that most analyses do not
               result in extraction of 100 percent of the constituent.  In
               assessing the recovery data to be transferred, the procedures
               outlined in (1), (2), and (3) above are followed.
          The analytical procedures employed to generate the data used to

calculate the treatment standards are listed in Appendix B of this document.
                                      1-36

-------
In cases where alternatives or equivalent procedures and/or equipment are



allowed in EPA's SW-8J46, Third Edition (November 1986) methods,  the specific



procedures and equipment used are also documented in this Appendix.  In



addition, any deviations from the SW-8M6, Third Edition, methods used to



analyze the specific waste matrices are documented.   It is important to note



that the Agency will use the methods and procedures delineated in Appendix B



to enforce the treatment standards presented in Section 7,0 of this document.



Accordingly, facilities should use these procedures in assessing the perfor-



mance of their treatment systems.







1.2.7     BOAT Treatment Standards for"Derived-From" and "Mixed" Wastes







          (1)  Hastes from Treatment Trains Generating Multiple Residues.  In



a number of instances, the proposed BOAT consists of a series of operations,



each of which generates a waste residue.  For example, the proposed BOAT for a



certain waste code is based on solvent extraction, steam stripping, and



activated carbon adsorption.  Each of these treatment steps generates a waste



requiring treatment—a solvent-containing stream fron solvent extraction, a



stripper overhead, and spent activated carbon.  Treatment of these wastes may



generate further residues; for instance, spent activated carbon (if not



regenerated) could be incinerated, generating an ash and possibly a scrubber



water waste.  Ultimately, additional wastes are generated that may require



land disposal.  With respect to these wastes, the Agency wishes to emphasize



the following points:
                                       1-37

-------
               All of the residues from treating the original  listed wastes
               are likewise considered to  be  the listed  waste  by  virtue of  the
               derived-from rule contained in 40 CFS Part 26l,3(c}(2).   (This
               point is discussed more fully  in (2)  below.)  Consequently,  all
               of the wastes generated in  the course of  treatment would be
               prohibited from land disposal  unless  they satisfy  the treatment
               standard or meet one of the exceptions to the prohibition.

               The Agency's proposed treatment standards generally contain  a
               concentration level for wastewaters and a concentration  level
               for nonwaatewaters.  The treatment standards apply to all of
               the wastes generated in treating the  original prohibited waste,
               Thus, all solids generated  from treating  these  wastes would
               have to meet the treatment  standard for nonwastewaters.   All
               derived-from wastes meeting the Agency definition  of waatewater
               (less than 1 percent TOC and leas than 1  percent total Filter-
               able solids) would have to  meet the treatment standard for
               wastewatera.  EPA wishes to make clear that this approach is
               not meant to allow partial  treatment  in order  to comply with
               the applicable standard.

               The Agency has not performed tests, in all cases,  on every
               waste that can result from  every part of  the  treatment train.
               However, the Agency's treatment standards are based on treat-
               ment of the moat concentrated  form of the waste.  Consequently,
               the Agency Relieves that the less concentrated  wastes generated
               in the course of treatment  will also  be able  to be treated  to
               meet this value.
          (2)  Mixtures andOther Derived-From Residues.  There is a further

question as to the applicability of the BDAT treatment standards to residues

generated not from treating the waste (as discussed above), but from other

types of management.  Examples are contaminated soil or leachate that is

derived from managing the waste.  In these cases, the mixture is still deemed

to be the listed waste, either because of the derived-from rule {40 CFR Part

26l.3(c)(2)(i)) or the mixture rule (40 CFR Part 26l.3(a)(2){iii) and (iv)) or

because the listed waste is contained in the matrix (see, for example, 40 CFR

Part 26l.33(d)).  The prohibition for the particular listed waste consequently

applies to this type of waste.
                                      1-38

-------
          The Agency believes that the majority of these types of residues can



meet the treatment standards for the underlying listed wastes (with the



possible exception of contaminated soil and debris for which the Agency is



currently investigating whether it is appropriate to establish a separate



treatability subeategorization).  For the most part, these residues will be



less concentrated than the original listed waste.  The Agency's treatment



standards also make a generous allowance for process variability by assuming



that all treatability values used to establish the standard are lognormally



distributed.  The waste also might be amenable to a relatively nonvariable



fora of treatment technology such as incineration.  Finally, and perhaps moat



important, the rules contain a treatability variance that allows a petitioner



to demonstrate that its waste cannot be treated to the level specified in the



rule (UO CFR Part 268.UUU)).  This provision provides a safety valve that



allows persons with unusual waste matrices to demonstrate the appropriateness



of a different standard.  The Agency, to date, has not received any petitions



under this provision (for example, for residues contaminated with a prohibited



solvent waste), indicating, in the Agency's view, that the existing standards



are generally achievable.







          (3)  Residuesfrom Managing Listed Wastes orthat Contain Listed



Wastes.  The Agency has been asked if and when residues from managing hazard-



ous wastes, such as leaehate and contaminated ground water, become subject to



the land disposal prohibitions.  Although the Agency believes this question to



be settled by existing rules and interpretative statements, to avoid any



possible confusion the Agency will address the question again.
                                      1-39

-------
          Residues from managing First Third wastes,  iisted California List
wastes, and spent solvent and dioicin wastes are all considered to be subject
to the prohibitions for the underlying hazardous waste.  Residues from manag-
ing California List wastes likewise are subject to the California List prohi-
bitions when the residues themselves exhibit a characteristic of hazardous
waste.  This determination stems directly from the derived-from rule in 40 CFR
Part 26l.3(c)(2) or, in gome cases, from the fact that the waste is mixed with
or otherwise contains the listed waste.  The underlying principle stated in
all of these provisions is that listed wastes remain listed until delisted.

          The Agency's historic practice in processing dellsting petitions
that address nixing residuals has been to consider them to be the listed waste
and to require that delisting petitioners address all constituents for which
the derived-froo waste (or other mixed waste) was listed.  The language in 40
CFR Part 260.22(b) states that mixtures or derived-fron residues can be
delisted provided a delisting petitioner makes a demonstration Identical to
that which a delisting petitioner would make for the underlying waste.
Consequently, these residues are treated as the underlying listed waste for
delisting purposes.  The statute likewise takes this position, indicating that
soil and debris that are contaminated with listed spent solvents or dloxin
wastes are subject to the prohibition for these wastes even though these
wastes are not the originally generated waste, but rather are a residual from
management (RCRA section 30QiKe)(3)).  It is EPA's view that all such residues
are covered by the existing prohibitions and treatment standards for the
                                       1-iiQ

-------
listed hazardous waste that these residues contain and from which they are



derived.







1.2.8     Transfer of Treatment ^Standards







          EPA is proposing some treatment standards that are not based on



testing of the treatment technology of the specific waste subject to the



treatment standard.  Instead, the Agency has determined that the constituents



present in the subject waste can be treated to the same performance levels as



those observed in other wastes for which EPA has previously developed treat-



ment data.  EPA believes that transferring treatment performance for use in



establishing treatment standards for untested wastes is technically valid in



cases where the untested wastes are generated from similar industries, have



similar processing steps, or have similar waste characteristics affecting



performance and treatment selection.  Transfer of treatment standards to



similar wastes or wastes from similar processing steps requires little formal



analysis.  However, in a case where only the industry is similar, EPA more



closely examines the waste characteristics prior to deciding whether the



untested waste constituents can be treated to levels associated with tested



wastes.







          EPA undertakes a two-step analysis when determining whether wastes



generated by different processes within a single  industry can be treated  to



the same level of performance. First, EPA reviews the available waste charac-



teristic data to identify those parameters that are expected to affect
                                       1-41

-------
treatment selection.  EPA has identified gome of the moat important



constituents and other parameters needed to select the treatment technology



appropriate for a given waste,  A detailed discussion of each analysis,



including how each parameter was selected for each waste, can be found in



Section 5 of this document.







          Second, when an individual analysis suggests that an untested waste



can be treated with the sane technology as a waste fop which treatment perfor-



mance data are already available, EPA analyzes a more detailed list of con-



stituents that represent some of the most important waste characteristics that



the Agency believes will affect the performance of the technology.  By examin-



ing and comparing these characteristics, the Agency determines whether the



untested wastes will achieve the same level of treatment as the tested waste.



Where the Agency determines that the untested waste is easier to treat than



the tested waste, the treatment standards can be transferred.  A detailed



discussion of this transfer process for each waste can be found In later



sections of this document.







1.3       Variancefrom theBOAT Treatment Standard







          The Agency recognizes that there may exist unique wastes that cannot



be treated to the level specified as the treatment standard.  In such a case,



a generator or owner/operator may submit a petition to the Administrator



requesting a variance from the treatment standard,  A particular waste may be



significantly different front the wastes considered in establishing
                                       1-42

-------
treatability groups because the waste contains a more complex matrix that

makes it more difficult to treat.  For example, complex mixtures may be formed

when a restricted waste is mixed with other waste streams by spills or other

forms of inadvertent mixing,  A3 a result, the treatability of the restricted

waste may be altered such that it cannot meet the applicable treatment

standard.



          Variance petitions must demonstrate that the treatment standard

established for a given waste cannot be met.  This demonstration can be made

by showing that attempts to treat the waste by available technologies were not

successful or by performing appropriate analyses of the waste, including waste

characteristics affecting performance, which demonstrate that the waste cannot

be treated to the specified levels.  Variances will not be granted based

solely on a showing that adequate BOAT treatment capacity is unavailable.

(Such demonstrations can be made according to the provisions in Part 268.5 of

RCRA for case-by-case extensions of the effective date.)  The Agency will

consider granting generic petitions provided that representative data are

submitted to support a variance  for each facility covered by the petition.


          Petitioners should submit at least one copy to:

          After receiving a petition for a variance, the Administrator may

request any additional information or waste samples that may be required to

evaluate and process the petition.  Additionally, all petitioners must certify

that the information provided to the Agency is accurate under 40 CFR Part

268.U(b).
          In determining whether a variance will be granted, the Agency will

first look at the design and operation of the treatment system being used.  If

EPA determines that the technology and operation are consistent with BOAT, the

Agency will evaluate the waste to determine if the waste matrix and/or
                                      1-45

-------
physical parameters are such that the BOAT treatment standards reflect
treatment of this waste.  Essentially, this latter analysis will concern the
parameters affecting treatment selection and waste characteristics affecting
performance parameters.

          In cases where BOAT ia based on more than one technology, the
petitioner will need to demonstrate that the treatment standard cannot be met
using any of the technologies, or that none of the technologies are appropri-
ate for treatment of the waste.

2.0       INDUSTRY AFFECTED AND WASTE CHARACTERIZATION



          As described in Section 1.0, the Hazardous and Solid Waste Amend-

ments (HSWA) specify dates when particular groups of hazardous wastes are

prohibited from land disposal.  The amendments also require the Environmental

Protection Agency to establish treatment standards for each waste that, when

met, allow that waste to be land disposed.  Wastes listed as K016, K018, K020,

and K030, that are generated by the production of chlorinated organic chemi-

cals, are part of the first third of listed wastes to be evaluated by the

Agency.  K019 is also generated by the production of chlorinated organic

chemicals.  K019 was originally scheduled for regulation with the second third

of listed wastes; however, the Agency has chosen to include KOI9 in this waste

treatability group due to the similarity between K019 and the other

chlorinated organic wastes.  The purpose of this section is to describe the

industry affected by the land disposal restrictions for K016, K018, KQ19,

K020, and K030 and to present available characterization data for these

wastes.



          Under 40 CFR 261.32 (hazardous wastes from specific sources), wastes

identified as K016, K018, KQ19, K020, and K030 are specifically generated  in

the production of chlorinated organic chemicals and are listed as follows*.


          K016:     Heavy ends or distillation residues from the production of
                    carbon tetrachloride

          K018:     Heavy ends from the fractionation column in ethyl chloride
                    production

          K019:     Heavy ends from the distillation of ethylene dichloride  in
                    ethylene  dichloride production

                                       2-1

-------
          K020:     Heavy ends from the distillation of vinyl chloride in
                    vinyl chloride monomer production

          K030:     Column bottoms or heavy ends from the combined production
                    of trichloroethylene and perchloroethylene


          The Agency has determined that these listed wastes (K016, KOI8,

K019, K020, and K030) represent a single waste treatability group based on

their similar physical and chemical characteristics.  As described later in

this section, EPA has examined the sources of the wastes, the specific

similarities in waste composition, applicable and demonstrated treatment

technologies, and attainable treatment performance in order to support a

simplified regulatory approach for these five chlorinated organic chemicals

wastes.



2.1        Industry Affected and Process Description



          The four digit Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) code associ-

ated with the production of chlorinated organic chemicals is 2869  {Industrial

Organic Chemicals, Not Elsewhere Classified).  The ftgency estimates that there

are seven facilities that produce K016, five facilities that produce K018,

sixteen facilities that produce K019, eleven facilities that produce K02Q, and

eight facilities that produce K030,  Table 2-1 lists the number of facilities

for each waste code by state.  Table 2-2 lists the number of facilities  for

each waste code in each EPA region.



          The production of chlorinated organic chemicals typically consists

of the reaction of hydrocarbon or chlorocarbon feedstocks with chlorine  or

hydrogen chloride to form the desired product and other by-products.  A



generalized process diagram of the production of chlorinated organic chemicals



is presented in Figure 2-1.  The reaction steps are followed by a series of



washing, neutralization, and purification steps to recover the product(s) at



the desired quality.  Wastes generated in the processes often include spent



catalysts, spent wash solutions, light distillation ends, and heavy ends.  The



characteristics of the specific wastes generated at a facility depend on



feedstocks, catalysts, reactor operating conditions, and product purification



methods.







          Most chlorinated organic chemical products can be produced by a



variety of processes.  The process used at a particular facility depends upon



the size and age of the facility, other products produced at the facility, and



the market for chlorinated organic chemicals.  Many chlorinated organic



chemicals processes are also designed to produce more than one product stream.



Product ratios are adjusted to meet market demand by adjusting feedstocks,



reactor operating conditions, and product recycle ratios.







2.1.1     KOI6 Process Description







          Heavy ends or distillation residues (commonly referred to as bot-



toms) from the production of carbon tetrachloride (K016) are generated in the



final purification step in carbon tetrachloride production.  There are three



major commercial processes currently used to produce carbon tetrachloride;



KOI6 is generated by each of these processes.

-------
          1.   Chlorinolysis of hydrocarbon or chlorocarbon feedstocks;


          2.   Chlorination of methane;  and


          3.   Chlorination of carbon disulfide.



In the United States, the majority of carbon tetrachloride is produced via the


chlorinolysis process.  All three processes are discussed in greater detail


below.




          Chlorinolysis of Hydrocarbon or Chlorocarbon Feedstocks (K016.)




          The chlorinolysis process consists of the Chlorination of hydrocar-


bons or ehlorocarbons at or near pyrolytic conditions.  Feedstocks for the


chlorinolysis process can be any of several hydrocarbons or a mixture of


hydrocarbons including aliphatics (e.g., propane,  propene, or butane), chlori-


nated aliphatica (e.g., hexachloroethane), and chlorinated aromatic hydrocar-


bons (e.g., chlorobenzene),  If propane is selected as the hydrocarbon feed-


stock, the chemical equation representing its chlorinolysis to carbon tetra-


chloride and perchloroethylene (tetrachloroethylene) is:



  C^B    +   8C12    	>       C2C]4         +    CC14        *    8HC1
propane     chlorine         perchloroethylene       carbon          hydrogen
                                                  tetrachloride      chloride



          The product distribution and the composition of KQ16 generated are


dependent on the feedstock used.  The final product distribution can range


from greater than 90 percent carbon tetrachloride (using propane as the


feedstock) to greater than 90 percent perchloroethylene (using propene as the


feedstock).
                                      2-7

-------
          In the chlorinolysis process, feedstock and chlorine are vaporized

in the feedstock vaporizer and are then sent to the chlorinolysis reactor.

The products of the chlorinolysis reaction are separated and purified by a

series of distillation steps resulting in final products.  The bottoms streams

from several of the distillation columns (purification and separation steps)

are recycled to the feedstock vaporizer to help control the final product

distribution.  A bottoms stream is continuously purged from the feedstock

vaporizer and is fed to another distillation column.  The overheads stream

from this column is recycled to the vaporizer and the bottoms stream comprises

the waste of concern ,.•-.: c).



          Chlorination of Methane (KQ16)



          Carbon tetrachloride is produced from methane by a series of chlori-

nation reactions.  The chemical reactions that occur are as follows:


                                                                    HC1

                                                                    HC1

                                                                    HC1

          Methane feed, recycled reaction intermediates  (methyl chloride,

methylene chloride, and chloroform), and chlorine are fed to the primary

chlorination reactor in the gas phase.  The reactor effluent contains

unreacted methane and chlorine, and a mixture of chlorinated methane products.

The distribution of products is dependent upon the ratio of chlorine to

methane to recycled chloromethanes in the feed to the reactor.



          Methyl chloride and methylene chloride are recovered from the

product stream from the primary chlorination reactor by distillation.  The

bottoms stream from the methyl chloride and methylene chloride recovery

coluan(s) is then fed to a secondary reactor.  The secondary chlorination

reaction occurs in the liquid phase in the presence of a catalyst.  Chloroform

is recovered from the product stream and purified by a series of distillation

steps.



          The bottoms stream from the chloroform recovery column is further

chlorinated in a final reactor to form carbon tetrachloride.  Carbon tetra-

chloride is recovered from the reactor effluent by distillation.  The  bottoms

stream from this distillation column comprises the listed waste KQ16,



          Chl_or.inat io.n_Qf Carbon Disulf ide (K016)



          The overall chemistry for the production of carbon tetrachloride by

the chlorination of carbon disulfide is as follows:

          Carbon disulfide, sulfur monochloride, and a recycled stream of

these reactants and carbon tetrachloride are mixed and fed to the chlorinator

where they react with chlorine in the presence of a catalyst.  The product

streajn is fed to a series of stripping and distillation columns for carbon

tetrachloride recovery and purification.  The distillation bottoms stream from

the final carbon tetrachloride purification column comprises the listed waste

K016.



2.1.2     K018 Process Description



          Heavy ends or distillation residues (bottoms) from the production of

ethyl chloride (K018) are generated in the final purification step in ethyl

chloride production.  In the United States, ethyl chloride is produced via the

hydrochlorination of ethylene.  In the process, ethylene and anhydrous hydro-

gen chloride gases are mixed and reacted in the presence of an aluminum

chloride catalyst to form ethyl chloride.  The chemical reaction that occurs

is as follows:


                                        A1C13

ethylene         hydrogen chloride                           ethyl chloride


By-products of the reaction include a hydropolymer oil and other chlorinated

hydrocarbons.  The crude ethyl chloride is separated from heavier polymers and

comprises the waste of concern (K018).

2.1.3     KQ19 Process Description




          Heavy ends (bottoms) from the distillation of ethylene

dichloride (K0195 are generated in the final purification 3tep in ethyiene

dichloride production.  In the United States, ethylene dichloride may be

produced by the direct chlorination of ethylene or by the oxychlorination of

ethylene; however, the vast majority of ethylene dichloride is currently

produced using a combination of these two processes.  The overall chemical

reactions that occur are as follows:



Direct chlorination of ethylene:
       chlorine    ethylene               ethylene dichloride

Qxychlorination of ethylene;
                    +    02   *

                                 chloride       dichloride
          In the first process, ethylene and chlorine are reacted to produce

ethylene dichloride by direct chlorination.  In the second process, ethylene

is reacted with hydrogen chloride to produce ethylene dichloride by oxychlori-

nation.  The crude ethylene dichloride from both processes is then combined

and purified using distillation.  Heavy ends from the ethylene dichloride

purification column comprise the waste of concern (KQ19),

2,1.4     K_0_2Q Process Description




          Heavy ends (bottoms) from the distillation of vinyl chloride (K020)

are generated in the final purification step in vinyl chloride monomer produc-

tion.  In the United States, there are three processes currently used to

produce the vast majority of vinyl chloride monomer; the listed waste K020 is

generated by each of these processes.



          1.   Thermal cracking of ethylene dlchloride;

          2.   Direct ehlorination and oxyehlorination of ethylene followed by
               the thermal cracking of ethylene dichloride; and

          3.   Hydrochlorination of acetylene.


These processes are discussed in greater detail below.




          Thermal Cracking of Ethylene Dichloride (K020)




          Vinyl chloride monomer is produced by passing ethylene dichloride

(EDC) through a cracking furnace.  The chemistry of the reaction is as fol-

lows:



       C2HHC12      	>      C2H3C1     *         HC1
ethylene dichloride        vinyl chloride     hydrogen chloride


          The vinyl chloride monomer product is purified through a series of

distillation steps.   In the final distillation column, the vinyl chloride

monomer product is recovered as the overhead stream.  The bottoms stream,

consisting of unconverted EDC and higher-boiling hydrocarbons,  is the waste
                                     2-12

-------
of concern (K020).  In some processes, this bottoms stream is further

distilled to recover ethylene diehloride for recycle to the cracking furnace.

In these processes, the heavy ends stream from the ethylene diehloride

recovery column is the waste of concern (K020).



          Direct Chlorination ano^Qxychlorination of Ethylene Followed by the
          Thermal Cracking of Ethylene Diehloride (K020J


          This process uses two sub-processes to produce ethylene diehloride

(EDC), which is subsequently cracked in a furnace to form the vinyl chloride

monomer (VCM),  The chemical reactions that occur are as follows:


Direct chlorination of ethylene:
chlorine   ethylene        ethylene diehloride

Oxychlorination of ethylene:
         *   02   +   4HC1   ----- >  2C2^Cl2  + 2H20

      C2HiiCl2       — — >     C2H3C1     *      HC1
ethylene diehloride        vinyl chloride   hydrogen chloride


          In the first sub-process, ethylene and chlorine are reacted to •

produce EDC by direct ehlorination.  In the second sub-process ethylene is

reacted with hydrogen chloride (produced from the subsequent thermal cracking

operation) to produce EDC by oxychlorination.  The crude EDC from both sources

can be washed and purified in the same process route and then fed to the EDC

cracking furnace.
                                     2-13

-------
          The vinyl chloride monomer product is purified through a series of

distillation steps.  In the final purification column, the vinyl chloride

monomer product is recovered as the overheads stream.  The listed waste K020,

consisting of unconverted EDC and higher-boiling hydrocarbons, comprise the

bottoms stream.  In some processes, this bottoms stream is further distilled

to remove EDC for recycle to the cracking furnace.  The heavy ends stream

from the EDC recovery column is the waste of concern (KQ20),



          Hydroehlorination of Acetylene(KQgO)



          The hydrochlorination of acetylene is a vapor phase reaction between

acetylene and hydrogen chloride in the presence of a catalyst.  The chemical

reaction that occurs is as follows:


                               catalyst
  C2H2    +         HC1         	>      C2H3C1
acetylene    hydrogen chloride           vinyl chloride


          Hydrogen chloride and acetylene gas react  in a tubular reactor in

the presence of a. catalyst.  The reactor effluent gases consist of vinyl

chloride monomer, ethylidene chloride, acetaldehyde, and unreacted acetylene

and hydrogen chloride.  These gases are quenched, and the unreacted acetylene

and hydrogen chloride are recycled to the reactor.   The bottoms from the

quench column, containing crude vinyl chloride monomer, are washed with

caustic and water and purified by distillation.  The vinyl chloride monomer

product is recovered as the overhead stream from  the final purification

column, and the bottoms stream is  the listed waste K02Q.

-------
2.1.5     K030 Process Description



          Heavy ends or distillation residues (bottoms) from the

production of trichloroethylene and perchloroethylene (K030) are generated in

the final purification steps in production of these products.  In the United

States, there are three processes currently used to produce the vast majority

of trichloroethylene and perchloroethylene (tetrachloroethylene) ; the listed

waste K030 is generated by each of these processes.


          1,   Oxychlorination of ethylene dichloride;

          2.   Direct chlorination of ethylene dichloride and other chlori-
               nated hydrocarbons; and

          3.   Chlorination of acetylene.


These processes are discussed in greater detail below.



          Oxychlorination of Ethylene Dichloride (K030)



          Trichloroethylene and perchloroethylene are produced when ethylene

dichloride is reacted with oxygen and chlorine in an oxychlorinator .  The

overall chemical reaction that occurs is as follows:
           +  6C12   +  TOg    ----- >  ^HClg   *    UCaCltj    +   14H20
 ethylene   chlorine   oxygen         trichloro-   tetrachloro-    water
dichloride                             ethylene      ethylene


The feed proportions can be adjusted to vary the product ratio from nearly all

tetrachloroethylene to nearly all trichloroethylene.
                                     2-15

-------
          The oxyehlorinator is typically a fluidized bed reactor where an

oxyehlorination catalyst, such as copper chloride, 13 used.  The reactor

effluent is processed through a condenser and a decanter.



          The organic layer from the decanter is dried in an azeotropic

distillation column.  The resulting chlorohydrocarbon products are then

separated in the trichloroethylene/perchloroethylene (TCE/PCE) distillation

column.  The TCE is removed as the overhead stream and the PCE is removed as

the bottoms stream.



          The crude TCE is refined by distillation and is removed as the

bottoms stream.  (The overheads stream is recycled to the oxychlorinator). The

crude PCE is also refined by distillation and is removed as the overheads

stream.  The bottoms stream from the perchloroethylene distillation column is

the listed waste K030.


          Direct Chlorination of Ethylene Bichloride and Other Chlorinated
          Hydrocarbons (K03Q)


          Trichloroethylene and perchloroethylene, in addition to hydrogen

chloride, trichloroethane, and carbon tetrachloride, are produced when

ethylene dichloride and other high-boiling chlorohydrocarbons are reacted with

chlorine.  The chemical reactions that occur are as follows:
            +   2C12    	>     C2HCl3    *    3HC1
 ethylene     chlorine           trichloro-     hydrogen

dichloride                     tetrachloride    chloride
          The reaction products are quenched and refined by distillation.

Unreacted ethylene dichloride is also recovered and recycled to the reactor.

In the final distillation column, the perchloroefchylene product is recovered

as the overheads stream.  The bottoms stream from the perchloroethylene

recovery column is the waste of concern (KQ3Q).



          Chlorination of Acetylene _1KP30)



          Trichloroethylene and perchloroethylene are produced when acetylene

is reacted with chlorine.  The chemical reactions that occur are as follows:


Direct chlorination of acetylene:

                       catalyst
  C2H2     *    2C12     — — >       C2H2Cli4
acetylene    chlorine           tetrachloroethane

Thermal cracking of tetrachloroethane intermediate:
                                            +        HC1
tetrachloroethane        trichloroethylene     hydrogen chloride

Direct chlorination of tetrachoroethane intermediate:
                   *    C12    ---- >      C2C1|4        +       2HC1
tetrachloroethane    chlorine        perchloroethylene   hydrogen chloride
                                     2-17

-------
          Acetylene, chlorine, and a catalyst are fed to the chlorinator which

contains a large mass of liquid tetrachloroethane boiling under reduced

pressure.  The reactor effluent, the tetrachloroethane intermediate, is

condensed and may be split into the following three streams:


          (1)  Recycle to the acetylene chlorinator,

          (2)  Feed to the pyrolysis reactor for thermal cracking to
               trichloroethylene, and/or

          (3)  Feed to the tetrachloroethane chlorinator for production of
               perchloroethylene.


          In the thermal cracking to trichloroethylene, condensed tetrachloro-

ethane, a trichloroethylene recycle stream, and a catalyst are fed to the

thermal cracking reactor.  The effluent from this reactor ia distilled to

-ocover trichloroethylene product as the overheads stream.  The bottoms stream

  am the trichloroethylene recovery column is the waste of concern (K030).  A

portion of the waste stream may be purged to remove tars and the remainder

recycled to the pyrolysis reactor.



          In the direct chlorination of tetrachloroethane, condensed tetra-

chloroethane is reacted with chlorine to produce perchloroethylene.  The

reactor effluent is distilled to recover perchloroethylene product as the

overheads stream.  The bottoms stream from the perchloroethylene

recovery column is the waste of concern (K030).  A portion of the waste stream

may be purged to remove tars and the remainder recycled to the thermal

cracking reactor.

2.2       Waste Characterization







          This section presents all waste characterization data available to



the Agency for K016, KG18, K019, K020,  and K030.   The approximate



concentrations of major constituents comprising these wastes are included in



Table 2-3•  The percent concentrations  in the wastes were estimated using



engineering judgment based on chemical  analyses (analytical data upon which



the estimates were based are reported in references 9, 10, and 11).



Calculations supporting these estimates are presented in Appendix B.







          Tables 2-4 through 2-8 present, by waste code, the ranges of BOAT



constituents and other parameters identified for the waste.  These data were



obtained from a variety of sources as referenced on the tables including



literature and sampling and analysis episodes.  These wastes contain chlori-



nated aliphatic and aromatic compounds  such as chlorinated ethanes, methanes,



benzenes, and butadienes.  Additionally, these wastes typically contain low



concentrations of metals and may contain high levels of filterable solids.







2.3       Determination of Has^e Treatability Group







          Fundamental to waste treatment is the concept that the type of



treatment technology used and the level of treatment achievable depend on the



physical and chemical characteristics of the waste.  In cases where EPA



believes that constituents present in wastes represented by different codes
                                     2-19

-------
can be treated to similar concentrations by using the same technologies,  the



Agency combines the codes into one separate treatability group.







          Based on a careful review of the generation of K016, K018, K019,



K020, and K030 and all available data characterizing these wastes, the Agency



has determined that these wastes represent a single waste treatability group.



K016, K018, K019, K020, and K030 are all still bottoms generated by similar



processes:  the chlorination or oxychlorination of hydrocarbon feedstocks



often at high temperatures and pressures.  Wastes generated as column bottoms



from the purification of chlorinated organic product streams are typically



comprised of chlorinated aliphatic and aromatic compounds such as chlorinated



ethanes, methanes, benzenes, and butadienes.  These wastes typically contain



low concentrations of metals.  Although the concentrations of specific con-



stituents will vary from facility to facility, all of the wastes contain



similar levels of BDftT organics and metals and are expected to be treatable to



the same levels using the same technology.  As a result, EPA has examined the



sources and characteristics of the wastes, applicable and demonstrated



treatment technologies, and attainable treatment perforaance in order to



support a single regulatory approach for these five chlorinated organic



chemicals wastes.

3.0       APPLICABLE/DEMONSTRATED TREATMENT TECHNOLOGIES








          In the previous section of this document, the five chlorinated



organic wastes (K016, K018, KQ19, K020, and K030) were characterized and a



single waste treatability group was established for these wastes.  In this



section, treatment technologies applicable for treatment of wastes in this



waste group are identified.  Detailed descriptions of the technologies that



are demonstrated on these wastes or on wastes judged to be similar are pre-



sented in this section.








3.1       Applicable Treatment Technoj.ogj.es








          Since K016, K018, KG19, KQ2Q, and K030 contain high concentrations



of organic compounds as shown in Section 2.0, applicable technologies include



those that destroy or reduce the total amount of various organic compounds in



the waste.  The Agency has identified the following treatment technologies as



applicable for K016, K018, K019, K020, and K030:  incineration (fluidized bed,



rotary kiln, and liquid injection), critical fluid extraction followed by



incineration of the contaminated solvents, and total recycle or reuse.  The



first technology, incineration,  is a destruction technology in which energy,



in the form of heat, is transferred to the waste to destabilize chemical bonds



and eventually destroy hazardous constituents.  In general, two residuals are



generated by incineration processes:  ash and scrubber water.  The second



technology, critical fluid extraction, is a solvent extraction technology in



which a non-hazardous liquified  gas, such as carbon dioxide or propane,  is
                                      3-1

-------
used as solvent.  In the extraction step, the gas is brought to its critical



state to aid in the extraction of hazardous organic constituents from the



wastes.  After the extraction step, the solvent (liquified gas at critical



state) is brought back to its normal condition in the gaseous state and thus



leaves a small volume of concentrated hazardous waste which is further treated



by incineration.  The third technology is total recycle or reuse of the waste.



This technology is usually proprietary and varies from facility to facility.







          The treatment technologies applicable for treating organics in K016,



K018, KOI9, K020, and K030 were identified based on current literature sources,



field testing, and current waste treatment practices.







          The Agency recognizes that wastewater forms of K016, KQ18, K019,



K020, and K030, as defined in Section 1.0, may also be generated from the



treatment of these wastes.  For example, the incineration of KQ16, KQ18, K019,



K020, and K030 generates combustion gas scrubber water that would be



designated as a wastewater form of K016, KQ18, K019, K020, and K030 derived



from the treatment of these listed wastes.  The scrubber water would be



expected to contain low levels of metal and organic constituents since the



untreated wastes contain low concentrations of metals and the majority of



organics would be destroyed in the incinerator.  Some wastewaters that are



generated by the treatment of K016, K018, K019, K020, and K030 by other



technologies may contain organic constituents at treatable concentrations.



The Agency has identified the following treatment technologies as potentially



applicable for treatment of wastewater forms of K016, K018, K019,
                                      3-2

-------
KQ2Q, and K030:  biological treatment, carbon adsorption,  and solvent extrac-



tion.  Since wastewater forms of K016, K018, K019, K020, and K030 may contain



organic hazardous constituents at treatable levels, applicable technologies



include those that destroy or reduce the total amount of various organic



compounds in the waste (i.e., biological treatment, carbon adsorption, and



solvent extraction).







3.2       Demonstrated. Treatment Technologies







          The demonstrated technologies that the Agency has identified for



treatment of K016, K018, KOI9, K02Q, and K030 are total recycle or reuse and



incineration, including rotary kiln, liquid injection, and fluidized bed



incineration.  Each of the demonstrated technologies are discussed below.  At



this time, the Agency has no information to determine that any of the five



chlorinated waste codes are being treated using critical fluid extraction;



therefore, EPA believes that critical fluid extraction  is currently not



demonstrated at full-scale level.







          The Agency is not aware of any facilities that treat wastewater



forma of K016, K018, K019, K020, or K03Q.







          A.  Total Recycle or Reuse.  EPA  is aware of  three  plants that



recycle or reuse K016, KQ19, or K030 as feedstocks in manufacturing processes,



Specific  Information regarding the  recycle  or reuse of  these  wastes has  been



claimed as confidential business information by the facilities.
                                      3-3

-------
          B.  Incineration.  Incineration provides for destruction of the



organics in the waste.  As described in Section 1.0,  the best measure of



performance for a destruction technology is the total amount of constituent



remaining after treatment.  Incineration generally results in the formation of



two treatment residuals:  ash and scrubber water.   A detailed description of



incineration treatment technology is presented in Section 3.4.  The Agency is



aware of ten facilities that treat K016, KQ18, K019,  K020, and/or K030 at



using liquid injection incineration at a full scale level.  Rotary kiln



incineration is also demonstrated at a full scale level for these wastes at



two facilities.  The Agency is also aware of one facility that treats wastes



that were generated from the production of vinyl chloride monomer,



perchloroethylene and trichloroethylene, using fluidized bed incineration at a



full scale level.







          The treatment process at Plant A which was tested by the Agency



consisted of a rotary kiln, afterburner, and a combustion gas scrubbing



system.  Combustion exhaust gases from the rotary kiln pass through the kiln



exit duct to the afterburner chamber.  Kiln ash residue is collected in a



storage bin.  KQ19 and another waste were fed to the rotary kiln for treatment



by incineration.  The K019 treated during the sampling episode was generated



during the clean out of a purification column in an ethylene dichloride



manufacturing process.  The ethylene dichloride manufacturing process used by



the generator is the combined ethylene chlorination and oxychlorination



process described in Section 2.1.3.  The other waste incinerated with K019



(referred to by plant personnel as "RCRA Blend") was a mixture of various
                                      3-4

-------
industrial wastes Including water, oil, and solvents recovered from a waste



treatment step at a waste disposal company.







          Combustion exhaust gases from the rotary kiln (from rotary kiln



treatment of K019 and RCRA Blend waste), and two other wastes ("PCS Blend"



waste and mercaptan-contaminated waste) were fed to the afterburner and



combustion gas scrubber system for treatment by incineration and wet gas



scrubbing.  PCB Blend waste is a mixture of RCRA Blend waste and various



PCB-containing waste oils including mineral, hydraulic, and transformer oils.



Mercaptan-contaminated waste is comprised of site run-off water from plant A



and wastewater received by plant A from other sources.







3.3       Available Treatment Technologies







          As defined in Section 1.0, an available treatment technology is one



that (1)  is not a proprietary or patented process that cannot be purchased or



licensed  from the proprietor (in other words, is commercially available), and



(2) substantially diminishes the toxicity of the waste or substantially



reduces the likelihood of migration of hazardous constituents from  the waste.



The demonstrated technology for treatment of K016, K018, K019, K020, and K030,



incineration (rotary kiln, fluidized bed, and liquid  injection incineration),



is considered to be commercially available.







          The wastes in this treatability group as generated  or upon heating



are amenable to pumping and can readily be atomized.  This has facilitated the



use of liquid injection Incineration systems onsite adjacent  to the waste



                                       3-5

-------
generating units.  When these wastes are allowed to cool they become viscous



and therefore, difficult to atomize.  It Is common practice to containerize



these wastes for offsite transport and disposal.  The containerized wastes can



be incinerated in a rotary kiln incineration system, as was the ease at plant



A.







          Methods of total recycle or reuse are not considered to be



commercially available as they are proprietary or patented process and cannot



be purchased or licensed.







3-1       Detailed Description of the Demonstrated Treatment Technology







3.1.1     Incineration







          This section addresses the commonly used incineration technologies:



liquid injection, rotary kiln, fluidized bed incineration, and fixed hearth.



A discussion is provided regarding the applicability of these technologies,



the underlying principles of operation, a technology description, waste



characteristics that affect performance, and finally important design and



operating parameters.  As appropriate, the subsections are divided by type of



incineration unit.
                                      3-6

-------
          Applicability and Use of Incineration







          Liquid Injection







          Liquid injection is applicable to wastes that have viscosity values



sufficiently low so that the waste can be atomized and injected into the



combustion chamber.  Viscosity values for wastes amenable to liquid injection



incineration range from 100 SSU to 10,000 SSU as reported in the literature,



It is important to note that viscosity is temperature dependent so that while



liquid injection may not be applicable to a waste at ambient conditions, it



may be applicable when the waste is heated.  Other factors that affect the use



of liquid injection are particle size and the presence of suspended solids.



Both of these waste parameters can cause plugging of the atomizing nozzle.







          Rotary Kiln/Fluidized Bed/Fixed Hearth







          These incineration technologies are applicable to a wide range of



hazardous wastes.  They can be used on wastes that contain high or low total



organic content, high or low filterable solids, various viscosity ranges, and



a range of other waste parameters.  EPA has not found these technologies to be



applicable for wastes containing high metal concentrations with low organic



concentrations.  In addition, the Agency expects that air emissions resulting



from incineration of wastes containing high metal concentrations may not



comply with existing and future air emission limits.
                                      3-7

-------
          Underlying Principles of Operation







          Liquid Injection







          The basic operating principle of this incineration technology is



that incoming liquid wastes are volatilized and then additional heat is



supplied to the waste to destabilize the chemical bonds.  Once the chemical



bonds are destablized, these constituents react with oxygen to fora carbon



dioxide and water vapor.  The energy needed to destabilize the bonds is



referred to as the energy of activation.







          Rotary Kiln and Fixed Hearth







          There are two distinct principles of operation for these incinera-



tion technologies, one for each of the chambers involved.  In the primary



chamber, energy, in the form of heat, is transferred to the waste to achieve



volatilization of the various organic waste constituents.  During this vola-



tilization process some of the organic constituents may oxidize to C02 and



water vapor.  In the secondary chamber, additional heat is supplied to over-



come the energy requirements needed to destabilize the chemical bonds and



allow the constituents to react with excess oxygen to form carbon dioxide and



water vapor.  The principle of operation for the secondary chamber is similar



to liquid injection.
                                      3-8

-------
          Fluidized Bed







          The principle of operation for this incineration technology is



somewhat different than for rotary kiln and fixed hearth incineration in that



there is only one treatment chamber.  The chamber contains the fluidized bed



(typically sand) and a freeboard section above the sand.  The purpose of the



fluidized bed is to both volatilize the waste and combust the waste.



Destruction of the waste organics can be accomplished to a better degree in



this chamber than in the primary chamber of the rotary kiln and fixed hearth



because of 1) improved heat transfer due to fluidization of the waste using



forced air and 2) the fact that the fluidization process provides improved



turbulence (i.e., mixing) between the waste and oxygen to convert the organics



to carbon dioxide and water vapor,  ftlthough the fluidized bed incinerator



generally does not have an afterburner, the freeboard section provides



additional residence time for conversion of the organic constituents to carbon



dioxide, water vapor, and hydrochloric acid if chlorine is present  in the



waste.







          Description of. Incineration Process







          Liquid Injection







          The liquid injection system is capable of incinerating a  wide range



of gases and liquids.  The combustion system has a simple design with virtu-



ally no moving parts.  A burner or nozzle atomizes the liquid waste and



injects it into the combustion chamber where it burns in the presence of air



                                      3-9

-------
or oxygen.  A forced draft system supplies the combustion chamber with air to



provide oxygen for combustion and turbulence for mixing.  The combustion



chamber is usually a cylinder lined with refractory (i.e., heat resistant)



brick and can be fired horizontally, vertically upward, or vertically down-

          A rotary kiln is a slowly rotating, refractory-lined cylinder that



is mounted at a slight incline from the horizontal (see Figure 3-2).  Solid



wastes enter at the high end of the kiln, and liquid or gaseous wastes enter



through atomizing nozzles in the kiln or afterburner section.  Rotation of the



kiln exposes the solids to the heat for vaporization and allows them to



combust by mixing with air.  The rotation also causes the ash to move to the



lower end of the kiln where it can be removed.  Rotary kiln systems usually



have a secondary combustion chamber or afterburner following the kiln for



further combustion of the volatilized components of solid wastes.








          Fluidi2ed Bed








          A fluidized bed incinerator consists of a column containing inert



particles, such as sand, is referred to as the bed.  Air, driven by a blower,



enters the bottom of the bed to fluidize the sand.  The waste material is



usually injected directly into the fluidized bed.  Air passage through the bed



promotes  rapid and uniform mixing of the injected waste material within the



fluidized bed.  The fluidized bed has an extremely high heat capacity

(approximately three times that of flue gas at the same temperature), thereby



providing a large heat reservoir.  The injected waste reaches ignition temper-



ature quickly and transfers the heat of combustion back to the bed.  Continued



bed agitation by the fluidizing air allows larger particles to remain



suspended in the combustion zone,  (See Figure 3-3.)







          Fixed Hearth Incineration







          Fixed hearth incinerators, also called controlled air or starved air-



incinerators, are another major technology used for hazardous waste incinera-



tion.  Fixed hearth incineration is a two-stage combustion process (see Figure



3-4).  Waste is ran-fed into the first stage, or primary chamber, and burned



at less than stoiohiometric conditions.  The resultant smoke and pyrolysis



products, consisting primarily of volatile hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide,



along with the normal products of combustion, pass to the secondary chamber.



Here, additional air is injected to complete the combustion.  This two-stage



process generally yields low stack participate and carbon monoxide (CO)



emissions.  The primary chamber combustion reactions and combustion gas are



aiaintained at low levels by the starved air conditions so that particulate



entrainment and carryover are minimized.







          Air Pollution Controls







          Following incineration of hazardous wastes, combustion gases are



generally further treated  in an air pollution control system.  The presence of



chlorine or other halogens in the waste requires a scrubbing or absorption

waste is not destroyed in the combustion process,  Ash will either exit as



bottom ash, at the discharge end of a kiln or hearth for example, or as



particulate matter (fly ash) suspended in the combustion gas stream.



Particulate emissions from most hazardous waste combustion systems generally



have particle diameters less than one micron and require high efficiency



collection devices to minimize air emissions.  In addition, scrubber systems



provide an additional buffer against accidental releases of incompletely



destroyed waste products due to poor combustion efficiency or combustion



upsets, such as flame outs,








          Haste Gharacterist ics ftffecting Performance








          Liquid Injection








          In determining whether liquid injection is likely to achieve the



same level of performance on an untested waste as a previously tested waste,



the Agency will compare bond dissociation energies of the constituents in the



untested and tested waste.  This parameter is being used as a surrogate



indicator of activation energy which, as discussed previously, is the amount



of energy required to destabilize molecular bonds.  Other energy  effects



(e.g., vibrational energy, the formation of intermediates, and interactions



between different molecular bonds) may have a significant influence on acti-



vation energy.
                                     3-16

-------
          Because of the shortcomings of bond energies in estimating activa-



tion energy,  EPft analyzed other waste characteristic parameters to determine



if these parameters would provide a better basis for transferring treatment



standards from a tested waste to an untested waste.   These parameters include



heat of combustion, heat of formation, use of available kinetic data to



predict activation energies, and general structural  class.  All of these were



rejected for  reasons provided below.








          The heat of combustion only measures the difference in energy of the



products and  reactants; it does not provide information on the activation



energy (i.e., the energy input needed to transform the reactants to the



transition state to initiate the reaction).  Heat of formation is used as a



predictive tool for whether reactions are likely to proceed; however, there



are a significant number of hazardous constituents for which these data are



not available.  Use of kinetic data was rejected because these data are



limited and could not be used to calculate activation energy values for the



wide range of hazardous constituents to be addressed by this rule.  Finally,



EPA decided not to use structural classes because it believes that evaluation



of bond dissociation energies allows for a more direct determination of



whether a constituent will be destabilized.








          Rotary Kiln/Fluidized Bed/Fixed Hearth








          In determining whether these technologies are likely to achieve the



same level of performance on an untested waste as a previously tested waste,
                                     3-17

-------
EPA would need to examine the waste characteristics that affect volatilization



of organics from the waste, as well as destruction of the organies, once



volatilized based on the underlying principles of operation.  Relative to



volatilization, EPA will examine thermal conductivity of the entire waste and



boiling point of the various constituents.  Relative to destruction of



organics, as with liquid injection, EPA will examine bond energies.  Below is



a discussion of how EPA arrived at thermal conductivity and boiling point as



the best method to assess volatilization of organics from the waste; the



discussion relative to bond energies is the same for these technologies as for



liquid injection and will not be repeated here.








          (1)  Thermal Conductivity.  Consistent with the underlying princi-



ples of incineration, a major factor with regard to whether a particular



constituent will volatilize is the transfer of heat through the waste.  In the



case of rotary kiln, fluidized bed, and fixed hearth incineration, heat is



transferred through the waste by three mechanisms:  radiation, convection, and



conduction.  For a given incinerator, heat transferred through various wastes



by radiation is more a function of the design and type of incinerator than of



the waste being treated.  Accordingly, the type of waste treated will have a



minimal impact on the amount of heat transferred by radiation.  With regard to



convection, EPA also believes that this type of heat transfer will generally



be more a function of the type and design of incinerator than of the waste



itself.  However, EPA is examining particle size as a waste characteristic



that may significantly impact the amount of heat transferred to a waste by
                                     3-18

-------
convection and thus Impact volatilization of the various organic compounds.



The final type of heat transfer, conduction, is the one that EPA believes is



most dependent upon the specific waste treated.  To measure this



characteristic, EPA will use thermal conductivity; an explanation of this



parameter, as well as how it can be measured, is provided below.  Heat flow by



conduction is proportional to the temperature gradient across the material.



The proportionality constant is a property of the material and is referred to



as the thermal conductivity.  (Note:  The analytical method that EPA has



identified for measurement of thermal conductivity is named "Guarded, Compara-



tive, Longitudinal Heat Flow Technique"; it is described in an Appendix to



this technology section.)  In theory, thermal conductivity would always



provide a good indication of whether a constituent in an untested waste would



be treated to the same extent in the primary incinerator chamber as it had



been treated in a previously tested waste.








          In practice, there are some limitations in assessing the



transferability of treatment standards using thermal conductivity.  However,



EPA has not identified a parameter that can provide a better indication of



heat transfer characteristics of a waste.  Below  is a discussion of both the



limitations associated with thermal conductivity, as well as other parameters



considered.







          Thermal conductivity  measurements are most meaningful when applied



to wastes that are homogeneous  (i.e., major constituents are essentially the



same).  As wastes exhibit greater degrees of non-homogeneity (e.g.,
                                      3-19

-------
significant concentration of metals in soil),  thermal conductivity becomes



less accurate in predicting treatability because the measurement essentially



reflects heat flow through regions having the greatest conductivity (i.e., the



path of least resistance) and not heat flow through all parts of the waste.








          Btu value, specific heat, and ash content were also considered for



predicting heat transfer characteristics.  These parameters can no better



account for non-homogeneity than thermal conductivity; additionally, they are



not directly related to heat transfer characteristics.  Therefore, these



parameters do not provide a better indication of heat transfer that will occur



in any specific waste.








          (2)  BoilingPoint.  Once heat is transferred to a constituent



within a waste, the removal of this constituent from the waste will depend on



its volatility.  As a surrogate of volatility, EPA is using boiling point of



the constituent.  Compounds with lower boiling points have higher vapor



pressures and, therefore, would be more likely to vaporize.  The Agency



recogniEes that this parameter does not take into consideration the impact of



other compounds in the waste on the boiling point of a constituent in a



mixture; however,, the Agency is not aware of a better measure of volatility



that can easily be determined.

          Incineration Designand Operating Parameters







          Liquid Injection







          For a Liquid injection unit, EPA's analysis of whether the unit is



well designed will focus on (1) the likelihood that sufficient energy is



provided to the waste to overcome the activation level for destabilizing



molecular bonds and (2) whether sufficient oxygen is present to convert the



waste constituents to carbon dioxide and water vapor.  The specific design



parameters that the Agency will evaluate to assess whether these conditions



are met are:  temperature, excess oxygen, and residence time.  Below is a



discussion of why EPA believes these parameters to be important, as well as a



discussion of how these parameters will be monitored during operation.







          It is important to point out that, relative to the development of



land disposal restriction standards, EPA is only concerned with .these design



parameters when a quench water or scrubber water residual is generated from



treatment of a particular waste.  If treatment of a particular waste in a



liquid injection unit would not generate a wastewater stream, then the Agency,



for purposes of land disposal treatment standards, would only be concerned



with the waste characteristics that affect selection of the unit, not the



above-mentioned design parameters.







          (1)  Temperature.  Temperature is important in that it provides an



indirect measure of the energy available (i.e., Btu/hr) to overcome the
                                     3-21

-------
activation energy of waste constituents.  As the design temperature increases,



che more likely it is that the molecular bonds will be destabilized and the



reaction completed.








          The temperature is normally controlled automatically through the use



of instrumentation which senses the temperature and automatically adjusts the



amount of fuel and/or waste being fed.  The temperature signal transmitted to



the controller can be simultaneously transmitted to a recording device,



referred to as a strip chart, and thereby continuously recorded.  It is



important to know the exact location in the incinerator that the temperature



is being monitored.








          (2)  Excess Oxygen.  It is important that the incinerator contain



oxygen in excess of the stoichiometric amount necessary to convert the organic



compounds to carbon dioxide and water vapor.  If insufficient oxygen is



present, then destabilized waste constituents could react to form products of



incomplete combustion including BOAT List organic compounds and potentially



cause the scrubber water to contain higher concentrations of BOAT List



constituents than would be the case for a well operated unit.








          In practice, the amount of oxygen fed to the incinerator is con-



trolled by continuous sampling and analysis of the stack gas.  If the amount



of oxygen drops below the design value, then the analyzer transmits a signal



to the force draft fan controlling the air supply and thereby increases the



flow of oxygen to the afterburner.  The analyzer simultaneously transmits a



signal to a recording device so that the amount of excess oxygen can be
                                     3-22

-------
continuously recorded.  Again, as with temperature, it is important to know



the location from which the combustion gas is being sampled and the location



that the design concentration is based.








          (35  Carbon Monoxide .  Carbon monoxide is an important operating



parameter because it provides an indication of the extent to which the waste



organic constituents are being converted to CC>2 and water vapor.  As the



carbon monoxide level increases, it indicates that greater amounts of organic



waste constituents are unreacted or partially reacted.  Increased carbon



monoxide levels .can result from insufficient excess oxygen, insufficient



turbulence in the combustion zone, or  insufficient residence time.
               Waste Feed Rate .  The waste feed rate is important to monitor



because it is related to the residence time.  The residence time required is



associated with a specific Btu energy value of the feed and a specific volume



of combustion gas generated.  Prior to incineration, the Btu value of the



waste is determined through the use of a laboratory device known as a bomb



calorimeter.  The volume of combustion gas generated from the waste to be



incinerated is determined from an analysis referred to as an ultimate



analysis.  This analysis determines the amount of elemental constituents



present, which includes carbon, hydrogen, sulfur, oxygen, nitrogen, and



halogens.  Using this analysis plus the total amount of air added, the volume



of combustion gas can be calculated.  Having determined both the itu content



and the expected combustion gas volume, the feed rate can be fixed at the
                                     3-23

-------
desired residence time.  Continuous monitoring of the feed rate will determine



whether the unit was operated at a rate corresponding to the designed



residence time.








          Rotary Kiln








          For this incineration technology, EPft will examine both the primary



and secondary chamber in evaluating the design of a particular incinerator.



Relative to the primary chamber, EPA's assessment of design will focus on



whether it is likely that sufficient energy will be provided to the waste in



order to volatilize the waste constituents.  For the secondary chamber,



analogous to the liquid injection incineration chamber, EPA will examine the



same parameters discussed previously under "Liquid Injection."  These



parameters will not be discussed again here.








          The particular design parameters to be evaluated for the primary



chamber are:  kiln temperature, residence time, and revolutions per minute.



Below is a discussion of why EPA believes these parameters to be important, as



well as how these parameters will be monitored during operation.








          (1)  Temperature.  The primary chamber temperature is important in



that it provides an indirect measure of the energy input:  (i.e., Btu/hr) that



is available for heating the waste.  The higher the temperature is designed to



be in a given kiln, the more likely it is that the constituents will volatil-



ize.  As discussed earlier under "Liquid Injection", temperature should be
                                     3-214

-------
continuously monitored and recorded.  Additionally, it is important to know



the location of the temperature sensing device in the kiln.








          (2)  Residence Time.  This parameter is important  in that it affects



whether sufficient heat is transferred to a particular constituent in order



for volatilization to occur.  As the time that the waste is  in the kiln is



increased, a greater quantity of heat is transferred to the  hazardous waste



constituents.  The residence time of solids and gases in the kiln is a



function of the specific configuration of the rotary kiln including the length



and diameter of the kiln, the waste feed rate, and the rate  of rotation.








          (3)  Revolutions Per Minute (RPM).  This parameter provides an



indication of the turbulence that occurs in the primary chamber of a rotary



kiln.  As the turbulence increases, the quantity of heat transferred to the



waste would also be expected to increase.  However, as the RPM value



increases, the residence time of solids in the kiln decreases resulting in a



reduction of the quantity of heat transferred to the waste.








          Fluidized Bed








          As discussed previously,  in the section on "Underlying Principles of



Operation", the primary chamber accounts for almost all of the conversion of



organic wastes to carbon dioxide, water vapor, and acid gas  if halogens are



present.  The freeboard section will generally provide additional residence



time for thermal oxidation of the waste constituents.  Relative to the primary



chamber, the parameters that the Agency will examine in assessing the effee-



                                     3-25

-------
tiveness of the design are temperature, residence time,  and bed pressure



differential.  The first two were discussed under rotary kiln and will not be



discussed here.  The latter, bed pressure differential,  is important in that



it provides an indication of the amount of turbulence and, therefore, indi-



rectly the amount of heat supplied to the waste.  In general, as the pressure



drop increases, both the turbulence and heat supplied increase.  The pressure



drop through the bed should be continuously monitored and recorded to ensure



that the design value is achieved.








          Fixed Hearth








          The design considerations for this incineration unit are similar to



a rotary kiln with the exception that rate of rotation (i.e., RPM) is not an



applicable design parameter.  For the primary chamber of this unit, the



parameters that the Agency will examine in assessing how well the unit  is



designed are the same as discussed under rotary kiln.  For the secondary



chamber (i.e., afterburner), the design and operating parameters of concern



are the same as previously discussed under "Liquid Injection."

           Appendix  to  Incineration  Section








           The  comparative  method  of measuring  thermal  conductivity  has  been



 proposed as  an ASTM test method under  the name "Guarded,  Comparative, Logi-



 tudinal Heat Flow Technique".  A  thermal heat  flow  circuit  is  used,  which  is



 the  analog of  an electrical  circuit with resistances  in  series.   A  reference



 material is  chosen  to  have a thermal conductivity close  to  that  estimated  for



 the  sample.  Reference standards  (also known as heat meters) having the same



 cross-sectional dimensions as the sample are placed above and  below the



 sample,  ftn  upper heater,  a  lower heater, and  a heat  sink are  added to  the



 "stack" to complete the heat flow circuit.  See Figure 1.








           The  temperature  gradients (analogous to potential differences) along



 the  stack  are  measured with  type  K  (chromel/alurael) thermocouples placed at



 known  separations,   The thermocouples  are placed into  holes or grooves  in  the



 references and also in the sample whenever  the sample  is thick enough to



 accommodate  them.








           For  molten samples, pastes,  greases, and  other materials  that must



 be contained,  the material is placed into a cell consisting of a top and



 bottom of  Pyrex 77^0 and a containment ring of marinite.  The  sample is 2



 inches in  diameter  and ,5  inches  thick.  Thermocouples are  not placed into the



 sample but rather the  temperatures  measured in the  Pyrex are extrapolated  to



.give the temperature at the  top and bottom  surfaces of the  sample material.



 The  Pyrex  disks also serve as the thermal conductivity reference material.

The stack is clamped with a reproducible load to insure intimate contact



between the components.  In order to produce a linear flow of heat down the



stack and reduce the amount of heat that flows radially, a guard tube is



placed around the stack and the intervening space is filled with insulating



grains or powder.  The temperature gradient in the guard is matched to that in



the stack to further reduce radial heat flow.








          The comparative method is a steady state method measuring thermal



conductivity.  When equilibrium is reached, the heat flux (analogous to



current flow) down the stack can be determined from the references.  The heat



into the sample  is given by
                                CdT/dx)top
and the heat out of the sample is given by








                    %ut = X bottom CdT/dl{* bottom








where








                      X = thermal conductivity








                 dT/dx = temperature gradient

-------
and top refers to the upper reference while bottom refers to the lower refer-



ence.  If the heat was confined to flow just down the stack, then Qj_n and Qout



would be equal.  If Qj_n and Qout are in reasonable agreement, the average heat



flow is calculated from








                      Q = (Qin + Qout)/2








The sample thermal conductivity is then found from








               ^sample = Q/(dT/dx)sample








          The result for the K102 Activated Charcoal Waste tested here is



given in Table 4-1.  The sample was held at an average temperature of ^2°C



with a 53°C temperature drop across the sample for approximately 20 hours



before the temperature profile became steady and the conductivity measured.



At the conclusion of the test it appeared that some "drying" of the sample had



occurred.

5.0       IDENTIFICATION OF BEST DEMONSTRATED AND AVAILABLE TECHNOLOGY







          This section presents the rationale behind the determination of



rotary kiln incineration as the best demonstrated and available technology



(BDAT) for the chlorinated waste group (K016, K018, KQ19, K020, and K030).







          In Section 3.0 of thia document, the Agency identified three types



of incineration as demonstrated and available technology to be considered for



BDAT for the chlorinated waste group (K016, K018, K019, K020, and KQ30).  The



three types of incineration are:  rotary kiln incineration, fluidized bed



incineration, and liquid injection incineration.







          As described in Section 1.0, BDAT for treatment of these wastes is



identified based on treatment performance data available to the Agency,   (All



performance data available to the Agency are discussed in Section 4.0.)   Prior



to being used to establish treatment standards, performance data are screened



to determine whether they represent operation of a well-designed and operated



system, whether sufficient analytical quality assurance/quality control



measures were employed to ensure the accuracy of the data, and whether the



appropriate measure of performance was used to assess the performance of  the



particular treatment technology, i.e., total constituent concentration in the



case of incineration.  All remaining data are then adjusted based on recovery



data in order to take into account analytical interferences associated with



the chemical make-up of the samples.  Finally, treatment performance data from



each technology are compared (technology to technology), to determine whether



any technology performs better than the others.



                                      5-1

-------
5-1       Review of Performance Data







          The available treatment performance data presented in Section 4.0



were reviewed and assessed to determine whether they represent operation of a



well-designed and operated system, whether sufficient quality assurance/qual-



ity control measures were employed to ensure the accuracy of the data,  and



whether the appropriate measure of performance was used to assess the perfor-



mance of the treatment technology.







          The treatment performance data and the design and operating data



collected during the teat on the rotary kiln incineration of K019 at plant A



were reviewed.  The appropriate measure of performance (total constituent



concentration) was used to assess the rotary kiln incineration system,



Additionally, the Agency had no reason to believe that the treatment system at



plant A was not well-designed and well-operated or that insufficient analyti-



cal quality assurance/quality control measures were employed.  Therefore,



these data were considered in the determination of BOAT.







          The treatment performance data and the operating data for fluidized



bed incineration of chlorinated wastes (submitted by plant B) were reviewed,



The appropriate measure of performance (total constituent concentration) was



used to assess the fluidized bed incineration system.  Additionally, the



Agency had no reason to believe that the treatment system at plant B was not



well-designed and well-operated or that insufficient analytical quality



assurance/quality control measures were employed.  However, the Agency has no
                                      5-2

-------
information specific to the sources and thus, the identity of the untreated



wastes fed to the fluidized bed incinerator.  Furthermore, the Agency does not



have sufficient raw waste characterization data to determine that these



untreated wastes are similar to K016, KQ18-KQ20, K030.  In addition, the



Agency has no reason to expect that fluidized bed incineration will provide



better treatment than rotary kiln incineration for KQ16, K018, K019, K020, and



K030 waste.  However, the Agency believes that K016, K018, KQ19, K020, or K030



wastes treated in a well-designed and operated fluidized bed incineration



system will meet the BOAT treatment standards established for these wastes,



Therefore, these data were not considered in the determination of BDAT.







          As discussed in Section 3.0, treatment performance data are not



available for liquid injection incineration for the chlorinated waste group



(K016, K018, K019, K020, and K030).  Therefore, in the absence of treatment



performance data for these wastes or wastes Judged to be similar, liquid



injection incineration was considered and ultimately rejected as BDAT for the



chlorinated waste group (K016, K018, K019, K020, and K030).  However, the



Agency believes that a well designed and operated liquid injection  incinera-



tion system will meet the BDAT treatment standards established for  this waste



group,








5.2       Accuracy Correction^ of Performance Data







          Following the review of all available treatment performance data,



the remaining treatment performance data for the demonstrated and available



technology (rotary kiln incineration) were adjusted in order to take  into



                                      5-3

-------
account analytical interferences associated with the chemical make-up of the



samples.  Generally, performance data were corrected for accuracy as follows:



(1) a matrix spike recovery was determined, as explained below,  for each BDAT



List constituent detected in the untreated or treated waste;  (2) an accuracy



correction factor was determined for each of the above constituents by divid-



ing 100 by the matrix spike recovery (in percent) for that constituent; and



(3) treatment performance data for each BDAT List constituent detected in the



untreated or treated waste were corrected by multiplying the reported concen-



tration of the constituent by the corresponding accuracy correction factor.







          Matrix spike recoveries are developed by analyzing a sample of a



treated waste for a constituent and then re-analyzing the sample after the



addition of a known amount of the same constituent (i.e., spike) to the



sample.  The matrix spike recovery represents the total amount of constituent



recovered after spiking minus the initial concentration of the constituent in



the sample, and the result divided by the known amount of constituent added.







5.2.1     Nonwastewater







          Matrix spike recoveries used in adjustment of the treatment perfor-



mance data for the kiln ash residue are presented in Table D-4 of Appendix D



of this background document.  Duplicate matrix spikes were performed for some



BDAT List volatile and semivolatile constituents in kiln ash.  If duplicate



matrix spikes were performed for an organic constituent, the matrix spike



recovery used for that constituent was the lower of the two values  from the



first matrix spike and the duplicate spike.

-------
          Where a matrix spike was not performed for an organic constituent,



the matrix spike recovery for that constituent was derived from the average



matrix spike recoveries of the appropriate group of constituents (volatile or



semivolatile constituents) for which recovery data were available.   In these



cases, the matrix spike recoveries for all volatiles or semivolatiles from the



first matrix spike were averaged.  Similarly, an average matrix spike recovery



was calculated for the duplicate matrix spike recoveries.  The lower of the



two average matrix spike recoveries of the volatile or semivolatile group was



used for any vblatile or semivolatile constituent for which no matrix spike



was performed.  For example, no matrix spike was performed for di-n-butyl



phthalate, a base/neutral fraction semivolatile, in rotary kiln incinerator



ash; however, the treatment performance data for this constituent were



adjusted for accuracy using a matrix spike recovery of 103 percent.  This



recovery was developed by averaging the matrix spike recoveries calculated for



all base/neutral fraction senivolatiles in the first matrix spike (104$) and



the duplicate spike (103$).  The lower average matrix spike recovery of 103$



was selected to subsequently calculate the accuracy correction factor and the



corrected treatment concentration for di-n-butyl phthalate.







          The accuracy correction factors for rotary kiln ash data are pre-



sented in fable D-6 of Appendix D of this document.  The corrected treatment



concentrations for the BOAT List organic constituents detected in either the



untreated K019 or rotary kiln ash are presented in Table 5-1 for kiln ash



residue.  Note that constituent concentrations were not adjusted to values



below the detection limit for each constituent.  If accuracy correction
                                      5-5

-------
resulted in a value less than the detection limit,  the accuracy-corrected



concentration was set equal to the detection limit.







5.2.2     Wastewater







          Matrix spike recoveries used to calculate accuracy correction



factors for adjustment of the treatment performance data are presented in



Table D-5 of Appendix D.  As shown in Table D-5, if duplicate matrix spikes



were performed for an organic constituent, the matrix spike recovery used for



that constituent was the lower of the two values from the first matrix spike



and the duplicate spike.







          Where a matrix spike was not performed for an organic constituent,



the matrix spike recovery for that constituent was derived from the average



matrix spike recoveries of the appropriate group of constituents (volatile or



semivolatile constituents) for which recovery data were available.  In these



cases, the matrix spike recoveries for all volatiles or semivolatiles from the



first matrix spike were averaged.  Similarly, an average matrix spike recovery



was calculated for the duplicate matrix spike recoveries.  The lower of the



two average matrix spike recoveries of the volatile or semivolatile group was



used for any volatile or semivolatile constituent for which no matrix spike



was performed.  For example, no matrix spike was performed for 1,1,2-tri-



chloroethane, a volatile, in scrubber water; however, the treatment per-



formance data for this constituent were adjusted for accuracy using a matrix



spike recovery of 78 percent.  This recovery was determined by averaging the



matrix spike recoveries calculated for all volatiles in the first matrix spike



                                      5-6

-------
      and the duplicate spike (78?).  The lower average matrix spike recovery



of 78$ was selected to subsequently calculate the accuracy correction factor



and the corrected treatment concentration for 1,1,2-trichloroethane.







          The accuracy correction factors for wastewater (scrubber water) data



calculated using this method are presented in Table D-6 of Appendix D of this



document.  The corrected treatment concentrations for each BDAT List organic



constituent detected in either the untreated K019 or scrubber water are



presented in Table 5-2.  Scrubber water concentrations were not adjusted to



values below the detection limit for each constituent.  If accuracy correction



resulted in a value less than the detection limit, the accuracy-corrected



value was set equal to the detection limit.







5.3       Statistical Comparison of Performance Data







          In cases where the Agency has treatment data from more than one



technology, EPA uses the statistical method known as the analysis of variance,



ANOVA (discussed in Section 1.0), to determine  if one technology performs



significantly better than the rest.  In this case the Agency has treatment



data only for rotary kiln incineration of K019 at plant A; therefore, an ANOVA



comparison is not applicable and rotary kiln incineration  is determined  to  be



BOAT for the nonwastewater forms of K019.
                                      5-7

5.1       BOAT for K016. K018. KOI9. K020 and K030







          The best demonstrated and available technology for KOI9 has been



determined to be rotary kiln incineration.  As discussed in Section 2.0, EPA



has determined that the chlorinated organics waste group, K016, K018, K019,



K02Q and K030, represents a single waste treatability group.  Therefore, since



rotary kiln incineration has been determined to be BOAT for K019, this



technology is also BDAT for KOI6, K018, K020 and K030.

6,0       SELECTION OF REGULATED CONSTITUENTS







          This section presents the methodology and rationale for selection of



the regulated constituents in wastewater and nonwastewater forms of K016,



KQ18, KQ19, K020, and K030.







          The Agency initially considered for regulation all constituents on



the BOAT List (see Table 1-1, Section 1.0).  Summarized in Table 6-1 for each



wastecode are available waste characterization data for the BOAT List



constituents.  For constituents known to be present in the wastes, the range



of detected concentration is shown in the table.  Those constituents that were



analyzed but were not detected in the wastes are identified by "NO",



Constituents for which the Agency does not have analytical characterization



data are identified by "NA" (not analyzed).  As explained in Section 1.0, the



Agency is not regulating all of the constituents considered for regulation in



order to reduce the analytical cost burdens on the treater, and to facilitate



implementation of the compliance and enforcement program.  As discussed



further below, a BOAT List constituent was not considered for regulation if:



(1) the constituent was not detected in the untreated waste; (2) the constitu-



ent was not analyzed in the untreated waste; or (3) detection limits or



analytical results were not obtained for the constituent due to analytical or



accuracy problems.  Some additional constituents were deleted froo consider-



ation for regulation, as discussed in Section 6,1.
                                      6-1

-------
          BOAT List Constituents That Were Not Detected in the Untreated



Waste,  In general, constituents that were not detected in the untreated waste



(labelled ND in Table 6-1) were not considered for regulation.  One exception



is for constituents that were detected in the treated waste (labelled ND* in



Table 6-1).  These constituents may have been present but were not detected in



the untreated wastes due to analytical masking problems or that they may not



have been present in the untreated waste, but were formed during the



incineration process.  The constituents are:  bis(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate and



di-n-butyl phthalate which were not detected in untreated K019 but were



detected in kiln ash residue from rotary kiln incineration of K019 at plant A



(sampled by EPA); toluene and di-n-butyl phthalate which were also not



detected in untreated K019 but were detected in the scrubber water residual



from rotary kiln incineration of K019.







          Dichlorodifluoromethane was not detected in the untreated K019 but



was detected in the scrubber water residual at plant A.  This constituent is



believed to be present in the waste due to the contamination from a process



coolant system at plant A.  The detection limits determined in the character-



ization of K019 are presented in Appendix F.







          BDflT List Constituents That Were Not Analyzed.  Some constituents on



the BOAT List were not considered for regulation because they were not ana-



lyzed in the untreated wastes (labelled NA, in Table 6-1).  Some constituents



were not analyzed in the untreated wastes based on the Judgment that it  is



extremely unlikely that the constituent would be present in the wastes.  Other
                                      6-2

-------
constituents were not analyzed in the untreated waste because they were not on



the BOAT List of constituents at the time of analysis.  In cases where data



were submitted to the Agency by outside sources, it may not be known if and/or



why constituents were not analyzed.







          Constituents For Which Analytical Results j/ere Mot Obtained Due to



Analytical or Accuracy Problems.  Some constituents on the BOAT List were not



considered for regulation because detection limits or analytical results were



not obtained due to analytical or accuracy problems (labelled A in Table 6-1),



The analytical and accuracy problems include:  (1) laboratory QA/QC analyses



indicated inadequate recoveries and, therefore, the accuracy of the analysis



for the constituent could not be ensured; (2) a standard was not available for



the constituent and, therefore, system calibration could not be performed for



the constituent; and (3) colorimetrie interferences occurred during analysis



for the constituent and, therefore, accurate analyses could not be performed.







6.1       BDftT List Constituents Detected in Untreated Waste But Not Con-



          sidered for Regulation







          Some BOAT List constituents that were detected in the untreated



K016, K018, K019, K020, and K030 wastes were not considered for regulation if



{1) available treatment performance data for the constituent did not show



effective treatment by BOAT; (2) treatment performance data were not available



for the constituent; or (3) the constituent was not present at treatable



concentrations in the waste; or (4) other reasons as described below.  BOAT
                                      6-3

-------
List constituents that were further considered for regulation following the



deletions described in this section are listed in Table 6-2.







          BOAT List metal constituents were not considered for regulation in



K016, K018, K019, K020t and K030 because these constituents were not detected



at treatable concentrations in either the untreated K019 waste or the K019



treatment residuals (incinerator ash and scrubber water).  Data were not



available for metals analyses in K016, K018, K020, and K030,  However, due to



the similarity between these wastes and K019, metals would also not be



expected to be present at treatable concentrations in K016, K018, KQ2Q, and



K030.  Furthermore, incineration, the technology for which treatment per-



formance data were collected for K019 waste, does not provide substantial



treatment for metals.







          Sulfide was not considered for regulation for K019 nonwastewater



because the technology determined to be BOAT for K019 (rotary kiln inciner-



ation) does not provide effective treatment for this constituent.  Moreover,



the Agency is unaware of any demonstrated technology for treatment of sulfide



in K019.







6.2       Constituents Selected for Regulation







          BOAT List constituents selected for regulation in KQ16, K018, K019,



K020, and K030 are presented in Table 6-3.  The selection of regulated

-------
constituents in nonwastewaters is discussed in Section 6.2.1  and for waste-



waters in Section 6.2.2.







6.2.1     Selection of RegulatedConstituents in Nonwaatewater







          Regulated organic and inorganic constituents in nonwaatewater were



selected from those BDAT List organic and inorganic constituents detected in



the untreated wastes that were effectively treated by rotary kiln incineration



and from those constituents that were detected in the treated wastes.







          As explained in Section 1.0, the Agency is not regulating all of the



constituents considered for regulation (Table 6-2) to reduce the analytical



cost burdens on the treater and to facilitate implementation of the compliance



and enforcement program.  Included in Table 6-3 are constituents selected for



regulation after consideration of:  (1) constituent concentration levels in



the untreated waste; (2} whether the constituents are adequately controlled by



the regulation of another constituent; (3) the relative difficulty associated



with achieving effective treatment of the constituent by BDAT.







          Determination of adequate control for organic constituents was based



on an evaluation of the characteristics of the constituents that would affect



performance of rotary kiln incineration relative to the kiln ash residual,



specifically, the boiling point of the constituents.  In general, a constitu-



ent is believed to be controlled by regulation of another constituent that has
                                      6-5

-------
a higher boiling point.  Boiling points for all BDAT List constituents con-



sidered for regulation are tabulated in Appendix E,
          The constituents selected for regulation and the constituents



controlled by regulating other constituents are discussed below for each waste



code.
          K016
          All constituents considered for regulation in K016 nonwastewater



were selected for regulation.  The constituents selected for regulation are



tetrachloroethene, hexachlorobenzene, hexachlorobutadiene, hexachloroeyclo-



pentadiene, and hexachloroethane.
          K018
          Chloroethane, 1,1-diehloroethanef 1,2-dichloroethane,  1,1,1-trichlo-



roethane, hexachlorobenzene, hexachlorobutadiene, hexachloroethane, and



pentachloroethane were selected for regulation in K018 nonwastewater.  Chlo-



romethane and  1,1,2-trichloroethane were detected in untreated K018 and were



considered for regulation, but were not selected because they were  found at



lower concentrations in the untreated waste and they are believed to be



adequately controlled by  incineration of other constituents that  have been



selected for regulation.  This decision was based on a comparison of boiling
                                      6-6

-------
points of those constituents considered for regulation.   EPA believes that



chloromethane (bp -24°C) will be adequately controlled by regulation of



chloroethane {bp 12°C}, 1,1-diehloroethane (bp 57°C), and other regulated



constituents with boiling points higher than -24°C.   1,1,2-Trichloroethane (bp



113°C) will be adequately controlled by regulation of pentachloroethane (bp



161°C), hexachloroethane (bp 187°C), and other regulated constituents with



boiling points higher than 113°C.
          KQ19
          Chlorobenzene, chloroform, 1,2-dlehloroethane, tetrachloroethene,



1,1,1-trichloroethane, bis(2-chloroethyl)ether, hexachloroethane, naphthalene,



phenanthrene, and 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene were selected for regulation in K019



nonwastewater.  Carbon tetrachloride, 1,1-dichloroethane, 1,1,2,2-tetra-



chloroethane, fcrtchloroethene, 1,1,2-trichloroethane, p-dichlorobenzene,



fluorene, hexachlorobutadiene, hexachlorobenzene, pentachlorobenzene, and



1,2,4,5-tetrachlorobenzene were detected in untreated K019 and were considered



for regulation, but were not selected because these constituents were found at



lower concentrations in the untreated waste and they are believed to be



adequately controlled by incineration of other constituents which have been



selected for regulation.  This decision was based on a comparison of the



boiling points of those constituents considered for regulation.  EPA believes



that carbon  tetrachloride (bp 77°C) will be adequately controlled by regu-



lation of chlorobenzene (bp 131°C), 1,2-dichloroethane (bp 83°C), and other
                                      6-7

-------
regulated constituents with boiling points higher than ?7°C.   1,1-Dichloro-

ethane (bp 57°C) will be adequately controlled by regulation  of  chlorobenzene


-------
          K020
          1,2-Dichloroethane, 1f1,2,2-tetrachloroethane, and tetrachloro-
ethene, were selected for regulation in K020 nonwastewater.   1,1,2-Trtchloro-
ethane was considered for regulation, but was not selected because it was
found at a lower concentration in the untreated waste, and it is believed to
be adequately controlled by incineration of other constituents which have been
selected for regulation.  This decision was based on a comparison of the
boiling points of those constituents considered for regulation,   EPA believes
that 1,1»2-trichloroethane (bp 113°C) will be adequately controlled by regu-
lation of 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane {bp W°C) and tetrachloroethene (bp
          K030
          Tetrachloroethene, hexachlorobutadiene, hexachloroethane, hexa-
ohloropropene, pentaehlorobenzene, pentachloroethane, 1,2,4,5-tetrachloro-
benzene, and 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene were selected for regulation in K030
nonwaatewater.  o-Diehlorobenzene, p-dichlorobenzene, and hexachlorocyclo-
pentadiene were detected in untreated KQ30 and were considered for regulation
but were not selected because these constituents were found at lower concen-
trations in the untreated waste and they are believed to be adequately con-
trolled by incineration of other constituents which have been selected for
regulation.  This decision was based on a comparison of the boiling points of
those constituents considered for regulation.  EPA believes that o-dichloro-
                                      6-9

-------
benzene (bp 181°) and p-dichlorobenzene (bp 174°C) will be adequately con-



trolled fay regulation of hexachlorobutadiene (fap 215°C), hexachloroethane (bp



187°C), and other regulated constituents with boiling points higher than



181°C.  Hexachlorocyclopentadiene (bp 23^°C) will be adequately controlled by



regulation of pentachlorobenzene (bp 276°C) and 1,2,U,5-tetrachloroben2ene (bp



216°C).







6.3.2     Selection of Regulated Constituents in Wastewaters







          Regulated constituents for wastewater forms of K016, K018, K019,



K020, and K030 were selected based on the method used for nonwastewaters; that



is, regulated organic and inorganic constituents in wastewater were selected



from the BDAT List organic constituents detected in the untreated wastes that



showed effective treatment using rotary kiln incineration and from those



constituents that were detected in the treated wastes.







          As explained in Section 1.0, not all of the constituents considered



for regulation (Table 6-2) will be regulated by the Agency to reduce the



analytical cost burdens on the treater and to facilitate implementation of the



compliance and enforcement program.  Table 6-3 presents the constituents



selected for regulation after consideration of:   (1) constituent concentration



in the untreated waste; (2) whether the constituents are adequately controlled



by the regulation of another constituent;  (3) the relative difficulty associ-



ated with achieving effective treatment of the constituent by BDAT.
                                      6-10

-------
          The Agency's determination of adequate control for organic constitu-
ents is based on an evaluation of the characteristics of the constituents that
would affect performance of incineration relative to the scrubber water
residual, specifically, the estimated bond dissociation energies for the
constituents.  In general, a constituent is believed to be controlled by
regulation of another constituent that has a higher bond dissociation energy.
Estimated bond dissociation energies for all BDAT list constituents considered
for regulation are tabulated in Appendix E.

          The constituents selected for regulation and the constituents con-
trolled by regulating other constituents are discussed below by waste code.
          K016
          All constituents considered for regulation in K016 wastewater were
selected for regulation.  The constituents selected for regulation are tetra-
chloroethene, hexachlorobenzene, hexachlorobutadiene, hexachloroeyclopenta-
diene, and hexachloroethane.
          K018
          Chloroethane, ehloromethane, 1,1-diehloroethane, 1,2-dichloroethane,
1,1,1-trichloroethane, hexachlorobenzene, hexachlorobutadiene, and penta-
chloroethane were selected for regulation in K018 Hastewater.  Hexachloro-
ethane and 1,1,2-trichloroethane were considered for regulation but were not
selected because these constituents were found in lower concentrations in the

                                      6-11

-------
untreated waste, and they are believed to be adequately controlled by incin-



eration of other constituents which have been selected for regulation.  This



decision was based on a comparison of bond dissociation energies (BDE) of



those constituents considered for regulation.  EPft believes that hexaehloro-

pentachloroethane (BDE 660 kcal/raole), 1,1,1-triehloroethane (BDE 670



kcal/mole), and other regulated constituents with bond dissociation energies



greater than 655 kcal/mole.  1,1,2-Trichloroethane (BDE 670 kcal/raole), will



be adequately controlled by regulation of 1,1-dlchloroethane (BDE 675



kcal/mole), 1,2-dichloroethane (BDE 675 keal/oole),  and other regulated



constituents with bond dissociation energies higher than 670 kcal/tnole.
          K019
          Chlorobenzene, chloroform, 1,2-dichloroethane, tetrachloroethene,



1,1,1-trichloroethane, bis(2-chloroethyl5ether, p-dichlorobenzene, fluorene,



hexachloroethane, naphthalene, phenanthrene, 1,2,H,5-tetraehlorobenzene, and



1,2,4-trichlorobenzene were selected for regulation in K019 wastewater.



Carbon tetrachloride, 1,1-dichloroethane, trichloroethene, hexachloro-



butadiene, hexaehlorobenzene, and pentachlorobenzene were considered for



regulation but were not selected because these constituents were found  in



lower concentrations in the untreated waste, and they are believed to be



adequately controlled by Incineration of other constituents which have  been



selected for regulation.  1,1,2-Trichloroethane and 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane



were considered for regulation but were not selected for regulation because
                                      6-12

-------
these constituent3 are believed to be adequately controlled by incineration of



other constituents which have been selected for regulation.  This decision was



based on a comparison of bond dissociation energies (BDE) of those constitu-



ents considered for regulation.  EPA believes that carbon tetrachloride (SDE



380 kcal/mole), 1,1-dichloroethane {BDE 675 kcal/raole), trichloroethene (BDE



481 kcal/mole), 1,1,2-trichioroethane (BDE 670 kcal/mole), and 1,1,2,2-tetra-



chloroethane (BDE 665 kcal/mole) will be adequately controlled by regulation



of bis(2-chloroethyl)ether {BDE 1290 kcal/mole), chlorobenzene {BDE 1320



kcal/mole), and other regulated constituents with bond dissociation energies



greater than 670 kcal/mole.  Hexachlorobutadiene (BDE 855 kcal/mole), hexa-



chloroben2ene {BDE 1310 kcal/mole), and pentachlorobenzene (BDE 1320



keal/nole) will be adequately controlled by regulation of chlorobenzene {BDE



1320 kcal/mole), p-dichlorobenzene (BDE 1330 kcal/mole), and other regulated



constituents with bond dissociation energies greater than  1320 kcal/mole.







          Dichlorodifluoromethane, toluene, and di-n-butyl phthalate were not



detected in untreated K019 waste but were detected in the scrubber water



residual from rotary kiln incineration of K019 at plant A  {sampled by EPA).



These constituents were considered but not selected for regulation in K019



wastewater.  Toluene and di-n-butyl phthalate were not selected for regulation



because they were present at treatable concentrations in other wastes that



were incinerated with K019 during the sampling episode at plant A.  Dichloro-



difluoromethane may have been a contaminant from the process coolant system at



plant A since it was not detected in any of the wastes incinerated at plant A



during the sampling episode.  EPA does not believe that this constituent was
                                      6-13

-------
formed as a result of incineration of KQ19, since there is neither fluoride



nor a source of fluorine in K019.  Therefore, dichlorodifluoromethane was not



selected for regulation.
          K020
          1,2-Dichloroethane, 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane, and tetrachloroethene



were selected for regulation in K020 wastewater*.  1,1,2-triehloroethane was



considered for regulation but was not selected for regulation because it was



found at a lower concentration in the untreated waste, and it was believed to



be adequately controlled by incineration of other regulated constituents which



have been selected for regulation.  This decision was based on a comparison of



bond dissociation energies (BDE) of those constituents considered for regula-



tion,  EPA believes that 1,1,2-trichloroethane (BDE 670 kcal/mole) will be



adequately controlled by regulation of 1,2-dichloroethane (BDE 675 kcal/mole).
          KQ3Q
          Tetrachloroethene, o-dichlorobenzene, p-diehlorobenzene, hexachloro-



butadiene, hexachloroethane, pentachloroethane, 1,2,^,5-tetrachlorobenzene,



and  1,2,4-trichlorobenzene were selected for regulation in K030 wastewater.



Hexachlorocyclopentadiene, hexachloropropene, and pentachlorobenzene were



considered for regulation but were not selected for regulation because these



constituents were found at lower concentration in the untreated waste, and



they are believed to be adequately controlled by  incineration of other
                                      6-14

-------
constituents which have been selected for regulation.  This decision was based



on a comparison of bond dissociation energies (BDE) of those constituents con-



sidered for regulation.  EPft believes that hexachlorocyclopentadiene (BDE 1020



keal/mole), hexachloropropene (BDE 710 kcal/mole), and pentachlorobenzene (BDE



1320 kcal/mole) will be adequately controlled by regulation of o-diehloro-



benzene (BDE 1330 kcal/raole), p-dichlorobenzene (BDE 1330 kcal/mole), 1,2,4,5-



tetrachlorobenzene (BDE 1320 kcal/raole),  and 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene (BDE 1325



kcal/mole).

7.0       CALCULATION OF TREATMENT STANDAHDS







          In Section 5.0 of this document, the best demonstrated and available



technology for treatment of K016, K018, K019, K020, and K030 was chosen based



on available performance data.  In Section 6.0, the regulated constituents



were selected in order to ensure effective treatment of the wastes.  The



purpose of Section 7.0 is to calculate treatment standards for each of the



regulated constituents using the available treatment data from the BOAT treat-



ment technology.  Included in this section is a step-by-step discussion of the



calculation of treatment standards for the nonwastewater and wastewater forms



of K016, K018, K019, K020, and K030.







          Rotary kiln incineration was determined to be BDftT (see Section 5.0)



for KQ16, K018, K019, K020, and K030.  Rotary kiln incineration generally



results in the generation of two treatment residuals:  ash (a nonwastewater



form of K016, K018, K019, K020, and K030) and combustion gas scrubber water  (a



wastewater form of K016, K018, K019, K020, and K030).  The best measure of



performance for a destruction technology, such as rotary kiln incineration,  is



the total amount of constituent remaining after treatment.  Therefore, BOAT



treatment standards for organic constituents were calculated based on total



constituent concentration data.
                                      7-1

7.1       Calculationof Treatment StandardsforNonwastewater Forms of



          K018, K019. K020. and K030
          K019
          The treatment standards for nonwastewater forma of K019 were calcu-



lated using six data sets from rotary kiln incineration of K019 waste.  Table



7-1 presents the concentration values for organic constituents in the treat-



ment residual (ash) resulting from rotary kiln incineration of K019 at plant



ft.  Values are presented for constituents detected in the untreated K019 that



were used in development of treatment standards for K016, K018, KOI9, KQ20,



and K030 nonwastewaters.  The concentration data presented in Table 7-1 have



been corrected to account for analytical recovery as described in Section 5.0.







          Nonwastewater treatment standards were calculated for each regulated



constituent for K019 as shown in Table 7-4,  The following three steps were



used to calculate the treatment standards:  (1) The arithmetic average of the



corrected treatment values for each regulated constituent was calculated using



the six data points presented in Table 7-1.  (2) Using these same data, a



variability factor was calculated that represents the variability inherent in



the performance of the treatment system, collection of treated samples, and



analysis of samples.  Where concentrations in the treated waste were reported



as less than or equal to the detection limit for all the data points in the



data set, variability is still expected since the actual concentrations could



range from 0 to the detection limit.  In these cases, the Agency assumed a



lognormal distribution of data points between the detection limit and a value



                                      7-2

-------
1/10 of the detection limit and calculated a variability factor of 2.8.   (3)



The treatment standard for each regulated constituent was calculated by



multiplying the arithmetic average of the corrected treatment valuea by  the



variability factor.  The analytical methods for analysis of each regulated



constituent in K019 are included in Table 7-4.  A detailed discussion of these



analytical methods is presented in Appendix D (Analytical Qft/QC).







          K016. K018. K02Q. and K030







          Treatment performance data from rotary kiln incineration of K01&,



K018, K020, and K030 are not available.  Therefore, the Agency is- transferring



performance data from the treatment of KOI9 at plant A to K016, K018, K020,



and K030.  The calculations of treatment standards for K016, K018, K020, and



K030 are presented in Tables 7-2, 7-3, 7-5, and 7-6, respectively.  The



transfer of treatment data is supported by the determination that K016,  K018,



K019, K020, and K030 represent a single waste treatability group, as discussed



in Section 2.0.  The determination of the waste treatability group is based on



the similarity In composition of the untreated wastes, the fact that all of



these wastes are generated by the organic chemicals industry, and the Agency's



belief that constituents present in these wastes can be treated to similar



concentrations using the same technology.







          Where treatment data are available  from  treatment  of K019  for a



regulated constituent in K016, K018, K020, and K030, the  data were  transferred



to that constituent  to calculate the treatment standard  for  each waste code.



For example,  1,1-dichloroethane was selected  for regulation  in K018.



                                      7-3

-------
1,1-Dichloroethane was detected in the untreated K019 at a concentration of



2,200 pptn and was treated to not detect values in the treatment residual (kiln



ash residue) from treatment of K019 at plant A,  Treatment data (in this case,



not detect values) for 1,1-dichloroethane from K019 were transferred to



1,1-dlchloroethane in K018 to calculate the treatment standard.  1,1-Dichloro-



ethane was not selected for regulation in KQ19, however, because it was found



in lower concentrations in the untreated K019 waste compared with concentra-



tions of other constituents that were selected for regulation and because it



is believed to be adequately controlled by incineration of other constituents



that were selected for regulation.  Treatment performance data were trans-



ferred in this way for most organic constituents in K016, KQ18, K020, and



K030.







          Treatment performance data were not available from treatment of KOI 9



at plant ft for some regulated organic constituents in K016, K018, K020, and



K030.  This is because the constituents selected for regulation for each waste



code are based on available waste characterization data.  Not all regulated



constituents in K016, K018, K020, and K030 were detected in the K019 treated



at plant A.  The Agency believes that it would be inappropriate to base



treatment standards on not detect values in the treatment residual of K019 if



the constituent was not detected in the untreated KQ19.  In such cases, data



were transferred to that organic constituent from another organic constituent



that was detected in the untreated KOI9 based on the boiling points of  the



constituents,  (Boiling point is a waste characteristic that affects the



performance of rotary kiln incineration as discussed in Section 3,1*.  Appendix



E presents information on waste characteristics that affect performance.)  The



                                      7-4

-------
constituent with the same OP the closest higher boiling point for which the



Agency had treatment performance data from KQ19 at plant A was selected for



transfer of data.  Cases where such a transfer of data occurred are summarized



below and are noted on Tables 7-2, 7-3t  7-5, and 7-6, which show the calcu-



lations of the treatment standards for K016, K0l8f K020, and K030,



respectively.







          12.  Chloroethane(KO18).  The treatment standard for chloroethane



(bp 12°C) in K018 is based on data transferred from treatment of chloroform



(bp 61°C) in KQ19.  Based on the discussion of waste characteristics affecting



treatment performance of rotary kiln incineration in Section 3-4, the Agency



expects that chloroethane can be treated to concentration levels as low or



lower than chloroform.







          41.  1,1,2,2-Tetrachloroethane (K020).  The treatment standard for



1,1,2,2-tetraehloroethane (bp 147°C) in K020 is based on data transferred from



treatment of bia(2-chloroethyl)ether (bp 178°C) in K019.  Based on the discus-



sion of waste characteristics affecting treatment performance of rotary kiln



incineration in Section 3.4, the Agency expects that  1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane



can be treated to concentration levels as low  or lower  than bis(2-chloro-



ethy1)ether.







          111.  Hexachlorobutadiene  (K016,  K018, K030).  The  treatment stan-



dard for hexachlorobutadiene (bp 215°C) in  K016, K018,  and K030  is based on



data transferred  from treatment of naphthalene (bp 218°C) in  K019.  Based on
                                      7-5

-------
the discussion of waste characteristics affecting treatment performance of



rotary kiln incineration in Section 3-4, the Agency expects that hexachloro-



butadiene can be treated to concentration levels as low or lower than



naphthalene.







          112.  jjexachlgrocyclopentadiene (KO16).  The treatment standard for



hexachlorocyclopentadiene (bp 231°C) in K016 is based on data transferred from



treatment of phenanthrene (bp 34Q°C} in KQ19-  Based on the discussion of



waste characteristics affecting treatment performance of rotary kiln inciner-



ation in Section 3.^, the Agency expects that hexachlorocyclopentadiene can be



treated to concentration levels as low or lower than phenanthrene.







          115.  Hexachloropropene (K030).  The treatment standard for hexa-



chloropropene (bp 209°C) in K030 is based on data transferred from treatment



of 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene (bp 213°C) in K019.  Based on the discussion of



waste characteristics affecting treatment performance of rotary kiln incinera-



tion in Section 3.^, the Agency expects that hexachloropropene can be treated



to concentration levels as low or lower than 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene.








          137.  Pentachloj-oethane (KOI8, K030).  The treatment standard for



pentachloroethane (bp l6l°C) in KQ18 and K030 la based on data transferred



from treatment of bis(2-chloroethyl)ether (bp 1?8°C) in K019.  Based on the



discussion of waste characteristics affecting treatment performance of rotary



kiln incineration in Section 3-H, the Agency expects that pentachloroethane
                                      7-6

-------
can be treated to concentration levels as low or lower than bis(2-chloro-
ethyl)ether.

          K018. K019. K020. and K03Q
          K019
          The treatment standards for wastewater forms of K019 were calculated
using six data seta from rotary kiln incineration of K019.  Table 7-7 presents
the concentration values for organic constituents in the treatment residual
(scrubber water) resulting from rotary kiln incineration of K019 at plant A.
Values are presented for constituents (detected in the untreated K019) that
were used in development of treatment standards for K016, K018, K019, K020,
and K030 wastewaters.  The concentration data presented in Table 7-7 have been
corrected to account for analytical recovery as described in Section 5.0.

          Wastewater treatment standards were calculated for each regulated
constituent for K019 as shown in Table 7-10.  The following three steps were
used to calculate the treatment standards:  (1) The arithmetic average of the
corrected treatment values for each regulated constituent was calculated using
the six data points presented in Table 7-7.  (2) Using these same data, a
variability factor was calculated that represents the variability inherent  in'
the performance of the treatment system, collection of treated samples, and
analysis of samples.  Where concentrations in the treated waste were reported
                                      7-7

-------
as less than or equal to the detection limit for all the data points in the



data set, variability is still expected since the actual concentrations could



range from 0 to the detection limit.  In these cases, the Agency assumed a



lognormal distribution of data points between the detection limit and a value



1/10 of the detection limit and calculated a variability factor of 2.8.



(3) The treatment standard for each regulated constituent was calculated by



multiplying the arithmetic average of the corrected treatment values by the



variability factor.  The analytical methods upon which the treatment standards



for K019 are based are included in Table 7-10.  A detailed discussion of these



analytical methods is presented in Appendix D (Analytical QA/QC).







          K016, K018. K020. and K030







          Treatment performance data from rotary kiln incineration of K016,



K018, K020, and K030 are not available.  Therefore, the Agency is transferring



data from the treatment of K019 at plant A to K016, K018, K020, and K030.  The



calculations of treatment standards for K016, K018, K020, and K030 are pre-



sented in Tables 7-8, 7-9, 7-11, and 7-12, respectively.  The transfer of



treatment data is supported by the determination that K016, K018, K019, K020,



and K030 represent a single waste treatability group, as discussed  in Section



2.0.  The determination of the waste treatability group is based on the



sinilarity in composition of the untreated wastes, the fact that all of these



wastes are generated by the organic chemicals industry, and the Agency's



belief that constituents present in these wastes can be treated to  similar



concentrations using the same technology.
                                      7-8

-------
          Where treatment data are available from treatment of K019 for a
regulated constituent in K016, K018,  K020,  and K030,  the data were transferred
to that constituent to calculate the  treatment standard for each waste code.
For example, 1,1-dichloroethane was selected for regulation in K018.
1,1-Dichloroethane was detected in the untreated K019 at a concentration of
2,200 ppm and was treated to not detect values in the treatment residual
(combustion gas scrubber water) from treatment of K019 at plant A,  Treatment
data (in this case:  not detect values) for 1,1-dichlaroethane from K019 were
transferred to 1,1-dichloroethane in K018 to calculate the treatment standard.
1,1-Dichloroethane was not selected for regulation in K019i however, because
it was found in lower concentrations in the untreated K019 waste compared with
concentrations of other constituents that were selected for regulation and
because it is believed to be adequately controlled by incineration of other
constituents that were selected for regulation.  Treatment performance data
were transferred in this way for most organic constituents in K016, K018,
K020, and K030.

          Treatment performance data were not available from treatment of KOI9
at plant A for some regulated organic constituents in K016, K018, K02Q, and
K030.  This is because the constituents selected for regulation for each waste
code are based on available waste characterization data.  Not all regulated
constituents in K016, K018, K020, and K030 were detected  in the K019  treated
at plant A.  The Agency believes that it would be Inappropriate to  base
treatment standards on not detect values in the treatment residual  of K019 if
the constituent was not detected in the untreated K019.   In such  cases, data
                                      7-9

were transferred to that organic constituent from another organic constituent
that was detected in the untreated KQ19 based on the bond dissociation energy
of the constituents,  (Bond dissociation energy (BDE) is a waste character-
istic that affects the performance of rotary kiln incineration as discussed in
Section 3.4.)  The constituent with the same or the closest higher bond
dissociation energy for which the Agency had treatment data from K019 at plant
A was selected for transfer of data.  Cases where such a transfer of data
occurred are summarized below and are noted on Tables 7-8, 7-9, 7-11t anQ<
7-12, which show the calculations of the treatment standards for K016, K018,
K020, and K030, respectively.

          T.2..  Chloroethane (K018).  The treatment standard for chloroethane
(BDE 665 kcal/mol) in K018 is based on data transferred from treatment of
bis(2-chloroethyl)ether (BDE 1,290 kcal/mol) in K019.  Based on the discussion
of waste characteristics affecting treatment performance of rotary kiln
incineration in Section 3-1, the Agency expects that chloroethane can be
treated to concentration levels as low or lower than bis(2-chloroethyl)ether,

          15._ _Chloromethane (KQ18).  The treatment standard for chloromethane
(BDE 380 kcal/nol) in K018 is based on data transferred  from treatment of
tetrachloroethene (BDE 461 kcal/mol)  in K019.  Baaed on  the discussion of
waste characteristics affecting treatment performance of rotary  kiln  incinera-
tion in Section 3.^, the Agency expects that chloromethane can be  treated  to
concentration levels as low or lower  than tetrachloroethene.
                                      7-10

-------
          m.  1.1.2.2-Tetrachloroethane (K02Q).   The treatment  standard for
1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane (BDE 605 kcal/nol)  in K020 is based  on data trans-
ferred from treatment of 1,1,1-trichloroethane (BDE 625 kcal/mol) in K019.
Based on the discussion of waste characteristics affecting treatment per-
formance of rotary kiln incineration in Section 3.^, the Agency  expects that
1,1,2,2-tetraehloroethane can be treated to concentration levels as low or
lower than 1,1,1-trichloroethane.

          87.  o-Dichlorobenzene (K030).  The treatment standard for o-dichlo-
robenzene (BDE 1,325 kcal/nol) in K030 is based on data transferred from
treatment of p-dichlorobenzene (BDE 1,325 kcal/mol) in K019.  Baaed on the
discuaaion of waste characteristics affecting treatment performance of rotary
kiln incineration in Section 3.4, the Agency expects that o-dichlorobenzene
can be treated to concentration levels as low or lower than p-dichlorobenzene.

          111.  Hexachlorobutadiene (K016. K018, KQ30).  The treatment stan-
dard for hexachlorobutadiene (BDE 853 keal/mol) in K016, K018, and K030  is
based on data transferred from treatment of bis(2-chloroethyl)ether  (BDE 1,290
kcal/nol) in K019.  Based on the discussion of waste characteristics affecting
treatment performance of rotary kiln incineration  in Section 3-^» the Agency
expects that hexachlorobutadiene can be treated to concentration levels  as low
or lower than bis(2-chloroethyl)ether,

          112.  Hexachlorocyclopentadiene  (K016).  The treatment standard for
hexaehlorocyelopentadiene (BDE  1,020 kcal/mol) in  K016 is based  on  data
                                     7-11

transferred from treatment of bis(2-chloroethyl)ether {BDE 1,290 kcal/mol)  in



K019.  Baaed on the discussion of waste characteristics affecting treatment



performance of rotary kiln incineration in Section 3.^, the Agency expects



that hexaehlorocyclopentadiene can be treated to concentration levels as low



or lower than bis(2-chloroethyl)ether.
          137.   Pentachloroethane (KO18, K030).  The treatment standard for



pentachloroethane (BDE 585 kcal/mol) in K018 and K030 is based on data trans-



ferred from treatment of 1,1,1-trichloroethane (BDE 625 kcal/mol) in K019.



Based on the discussion of waste characteristics affecting treatment per-



formance of rotary kiln incineration in Section 3.U, the Agency expects that



pentachloroethane can be treated to concentration levels as low or lower than



1,1,1-trichloroethane,

A.I  F Value Determination for ANQVA Test
    As noted earlier in Section 1.0, EPA is  using the statistical  method
known as analysis of variance in the determination of the level  of
performance that represents "best" treatment where more than one
technology is demonstrated.  This  method provides a measure of the
differences between data sets.  If the differences are not statistically
significant,  the data sets are said to be homogeneous.
    If the Agency found that the levels of performance for one or more
technologies are not statistically different (i.e., the data sets are
homogeneous), EPA would average the long term performance values achieved
by each technology and then multiply this value by tht largest
variability factor associated with any of the acceptable technologies.
If EPA found that one technology performs significantly better (i.e., the
data sets are not homogeneous), BOAT would be the level of performance
achieved by the best technology multiplied by its variability factor.
    To determine whether any or all of the treatment performance data
sets are homogeneous using the analysis of variance method, it is
necessary to compare a calculated "F value" to what is known as a
"critical value."  (See Table A-l.)  These critical values are available
in most statistics texts (see, for example, Statistical Concepts and
Methods by Bhattacharyya and Johnson, 1977, John Wiley Publications, New
York).
    Where the F value is less than the critical value, all treatment data
sets are homogeneous.   If  the f value exceeds the critical value, it  is
                                   A-l

-------
necessary to perform a "pair wise F" tast to determine if any of the  sets
are homogeneous.   The "pair wise F" test must be done  for all  of the
various combinations of data sets using the same method and equation  as
the genera]  F test.
    The f value is calculated as follows:
    (i)  All data are natural logtransformed.
    (ii}  The sura of the data points for each data set is computed (T,).
    (iii)  The statistical  parameter known as the sura  of the squares
between data sets (SSB) is  computed:
                                k
             k  f T,2 }

                                      2
    where:
    k » number of treatment technologies
    H| * number of data points for technology i
    N > number of data points for all  technologies
    T| » sum of natural logtransformed data points for each technology.
    (iv)  The sum of the squares within data sets (SSU) is computed:
                                      I ni
    *i i « the natural logtransformed observations (j) for treatment
           technology (i).
    (v)  The degrees of freedom corresponding to SSB and SSW are
calculated.  For SSB, tht dtgret of freedom is given by k-1.  For SSH,
the degree of freedom is given by H-k.

follows:

                              F . MSW
    where :
    MSB - SS8/(k-l) and
    MSW - SSW/(N-kJ.

    Below are three examples of the ANOVA calculation.  The first two
represent treatment by different technologies that achieve statistically
similar treatment; the last example represents a case where one
technology achieves significantly better treatment than the other
technology,

    where:
     VF -   estimate of daily maximum variability factor determined from
            a sample population of daily data.
    Cgg »   Estimate of performance values for which 99 percent of the
            daily observations will be below.  Cgg is calculated using
            the following equation:  Cgg « Exp(y > 2.33 Sy) where y and
            Sy are the mean and standard deviation, respectively, of the
            logtransformed data.
    Mean »  average of the individual performance values.
    EPA is establishing this figure as an instantaneous maximum because
the Agency believes that on a day-to-day basis the waste should meet the
applicable treatment standards.  In addition, establishing this
requirement makes it easier to check compliance on a single day.  The
99th percentile is appropriate because it accounts for almost all process
variability.
    In several cases, all the results from analysis of the residuals from
BOAT treatment are found at concentrations less than the detection
limit.  In such cases, all the actual concentration values are considered
unknown and hence, cannot bt used to estimate the variability factor of
the analytical results.  Below is a description of EPA's approach for
calculating the variability factor for such cases with all concentrations
below the detection limit.
    It has been postulated as a general rule  that a  lognormal
distribution adequately describes the variation among concentrations.
                                    A-ll

-------
Agency data shows that the treatment residual concentrations are
distributed approximately lognortnally.  Therefore, the lognormal model
has bitn ustd.routtntly in the EPA development of numerous regulations in
the Effluent Guidelines program and is being used in the BOAT program.
The variability  factor (VF) was defined as the ratio of the 99th
percentile  (C   ) of the lognormal distribution to its arithmetic mean
(Mean).
            VF -     C99                                              (l)

     The relationship  between  the  parameters  of the  lognormal  distribution
 and the parameters of tht normal  distribution created by  taking the
 natural logarithms of the I ognomtally -distributed concentrations can be
 found in most mathematical  statistics texts  (see for example:
 Distribution in Statistics-Volume 1  by Johnson and  Kotz,  1970). The mean
 of the lognormal distribution can be expressed  in terms of the
 mean U) and standard deviation (a)  of the normal distribution  as
 f o 1 1 ows :
          Cgg    «  Exp (M +  2-33o)                         (2)
          Mean   -  Exp (M +   .5a2)                         (3)
     Substituting (2) and (3) in (1) the variability factor can then be
 expressed in terms of a as follows:
          VF - Exp  (2.33 a •  .5

 can  be  estimated  using  equation  (I).   For residuals with concentrations
 that  are  below  the detection  limit, the above equations can be used  in
 conjunction  with  the  assumptions  below to develop a variability factor.
 Step  1:   The actual concentrations  follow a  lognormal distribution.  The
 upper limit  (UL)  is equal  to  the  detection limit.  The lower  limit  (Lt)
 is assumed to be  equal  to  one tenth of the detection  limit.   This
 assumption is based on  the  fact  that data from well-designed  and
 well-operated treatment systems generally falls within one order of
 magnitude.
 Step 2:   The natural  logarithms of  th'e concentrations havt a  normal
 distribution with an  upper  limit  equal to In  (UL) and a lower limit  equal
 to In (U).

                               ANALYTICAL QA/QC







          The analytical methods used for analysis of the regulated constitu-



ents identified in Section 5.0 are presented in this Appendix.  SW-846 methods



(EPA's Test Methods for Evaluating Solid Waste:  Physical/Chemical Methods,



S_W-8U6) are used in most cases for determining total constituent concentra-



tion.







          In some instances it was necessary to deviate from the SW-846



methods.  Deviations from SW-846 methods required to analyze the sample matrix



are listed in Table D-2.  SW-846 allows for the use of alternative or equiva-



lent procedures or equipment; these are noted in Table D-3.  These alterna-



tives or equivalents included alternative GC/MS operating conditions, equiva-



lent base/neutral surrogates, and different extraction techniques to reduce



sample matrix interferences.







          The accuracy determination for a constituent is based on the matrix



spike recovery values.  Tables D-4 and D-5 present the matrix spike recovery



data for volatile and semivolatile constituents in the kiln ash and scrubber



water residuals.







          The accuracy correction factors for volatile and semivolatile



constituents detected in untreated K019 and in the kiln ash and scrubber water



residuals are summarized in Table D-6.  The accuracy correction factors



were determined for each constituent by dividing  100 by the matrix spike



recovery (in percent) for that constituent.
