Lime Manufacturing Monitoring Checklist ^EPA Subpart S, Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program What Must Be Monitored for Kilns? If NOT using a CEMS, measure these parameters... For determining the monthly emission factor for each type of lime produced: ~ Calcium oxide content for each lime ~ Magnesium oxide content for each type (metric tons CaO/metric ton lime type (metric tons MgO/metric lime), analyzed monthly. ton lime), analyzed monthly. For determining the monthly emission factor for each type of byproduct/waste sold (including lime kiln dust): ~ Calcium oxide content for each solid ~ Magnesium oxide content for each lime byproduct/waste type solid lime byproduct/waste type (metric tons CaO/metric ton lime), (metric tons MgO/metric ton lime), analyzed monthly. analyzed monthly. For determining annual CO2 emissions from each type of byproduct/waste that is not sold (including lime kiln dust and scrubber sludge): ~ Calcium oxide content for each unsold ~ Annual weight or mass of unsold lime byproduct/waste type byproducts/wastes for each lime type (metric tons CaO/metric ton lime), (tons). analyzed annually. ~ Magnesium oxide content for each unsold lime byproduct/waste type (metric tons MgO/metric ton lime), analyzed annually. United States Environmental Protection Agency For determining annual CO2 process emissions for all kilns: ~ Monthly weight or mass of each ~ Monthly weight or mass of lime type produced (tons) byproducts/waste sold (such as lime kiln dust) for each lime type (tons) Lime Manufacturing Monitoring Checklist Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program Page 1 of 2 40 CFR 98, Subpart S February 2018 ------- For all kilns combined (i.e., for the whole facility): ~ Annual average emission factors for each calcined byproduct/waste sold ~ Annual average emission factors for each lime product type produced ~ ~ in the onsite process (if applicable) ~ Beginning and end of year inventories for each lime product ~ Beginning and end of year inventories for lime byproducts/wastes Annual quantity (tons) of lime product sold Annual amount of CO2 captured for use ~ Annual average results of chemical composition analysis of each type of lime product produced and calcined byproduct/waste sold ~ Annual lime production capacity (tons) If using a CEMS: In addition to the monitoring requirements under 40 CFR subpart C for the Tier 4 Calculation Methodology, measure these parameters for each kiln... ~ Annual amount of lime product sold, by ~ type (tons) Annual amount of lime product not sold, by type (tons) ~ Annual amount of lime byproduct/waste ~ sold, by type (tons) ~ Annual amount of lime byproduct/waste ~ not sold, by type (tons) Beginning and end of year inventories for each lime product Beginning and end of year inventories for lime byproducts/wastes See also the information sheet for Lime Manufacturing at: https://www.epa.gov/ghgreporting/subpart-s-information-sheet.
