OPINION
AND
ORDER’
OF
THE
BOARD
(by
J.
Theodore
Meyer):
This
matter
is
before
the
Board
on
a
regulatory
proposal
filed by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency
(Agency).
Additionally, on June 3,
1991,
the
Agency filed a motion to amend
the
proposal.
The Board today takes action, on that motion to
amend,
and proposes these rules for second notice.
This opinion
and order will contain only the procedural history of this
proceeding and the text of the rules themselves.
The Board will
issue a supplemental opinion shortly.
Procedural History
On January 17,
1991, the Agency filed this proposal for
rulemaking.
The proposa.l seeks to correct deficiencies
identified by the United States Environmental Protection Agency
(USEPA)
in Illinois’ state implementation plan
(SIP)
for ozone in
the Chicago area, and contains regulations requiring the
implementation of reasonably available control technology
(RACT)
for certain sources of volatile organic material (VON).
The
proposed regulations are intended to be identical in effect to
the federal. implementation plan
(FIP) promulgated by the United
States Environmental’Protection Agency (USEPA) for the Chicago
area.
(55 Fed. Rag. 26814, June 29, 1990.)
The Board accepted
the propo~’a1for hearing on February 7,
1991.
The Board also
accepted the Agency’s certification that this rulemaking is
federally required pursuant to Section 28.2 ‘of the Environmental
Protection Act (Act)
(Ill.Rev.Stat.
1989,
ch.
111 1/2, par.
1028.. 2), as amended by P.A. 86-1409.
The Board sent the rules,
as proposed by the Agency, to first notice on February 28,
1991.
The rules were published in the Illinois Reaister on March 15,
1991,
at 15 Ill.Reg.
3675.
On March 28,
1991, the Board found
that no economic impact study was necessary, in this proceeding.
Hearings were heI4 on April 10 and 15,
1991.
The first notice
comment period in this rulemaking expired on April 29, 1991.
On May 2,
1991, the Agency filed a motion to suspend
emergency rulemaking.
The Board had previously expressed its
2
intention to proceed with these proposed rules on an emergency
basis,
as provided by Section 5.02 of the Administrative
Procedure Act
(APA)
(Ill.Rev.Stat.
1989,
ch. 127,
par. 1005.02)
and Section 27(c) of the Act.
The Board intended to adopt the
rules on an emergency basis in order to meet the May 15, 1991
deadline set forth in the federal Clean Air Act Amendments of
1990,
and also proceed with “regular” rulemaking.
The Agency
moved that the Board suspend consideration of the proposal as an
emergency rulemaking,
alleging that the proposal was not
appropriate for emergency rulemaking.
Among other things, the
Agency noted that a representative from USEPA had stated at
hearing that USEPA believed that only
“permanent”
rules were
sufficient to meet the May 15 deadline, and that USEPA did not
view emergency rules to be “permanent”.
On May 3,
1991, the
Illinois Environmental Regulatory Group
(IERG)
filed a motion in
support of the Agency’s motion to suspend emergency rulemaking.
IERG stated that emergency rules would be a “futile” attempt to
meet the May 15 date.
IERG also stated that it was involved in
serious negotiations with USEPA and the Agency on points of
disagreement in these proposed rules.
At a May 6,
1991 Board
meeting, the Board deferred action on the motion for one week,
in
order to allow the participants additional time to continue
discussions with USEPA.
On May 13,
1991, the Agency filed a status report and a
“motion to extend first notice”.
The Agency updated that Board
on the continuing discussions between USEP~L, IERG,
and the
Agency.
The Ager~cystated that the negotiations involved
discussions on maxilaum theoretical emissionE
(MTE), compliance
and applicability dates for the proposed rules, and the rules
proposed as Subpart TT.
The status report included a letter from
Stephen Rothblatt, Chief of the Regulation Development Branch for
Region V of USEPA.
That letter confirmed that USEPA was invo.ved
with “serious” negotiations with IERG and the Agency.
The Agency
moved that the Board .Ielay moving into second notice until May
30,
1991.
The Agency contended that it looked very favorable
that all participants would reach an agreement, and ncted that if
the Board moved to second notice before the completion of the
negotiations, it would be unable to make changes in the proposed
rule (as a result of any agreement) without returning to first
notice.
Thr~Agency noted that Illinois is working within a very
tight time fram~f~r
this
rulemaking, so that there would be no
time to return to first notice.
The Agency summarized:
Therefore, despite the Agency’s earlier, fervent pleas
that the Boaid go to second notice
May 9, 1991,
the
Agency requests that the
Board
delay
second notice
until May 30,
1991.
Once the Board goes to second
notice, no changes, other than in response to comment
from the
Joint Committee on Administrative Rules
JCAR,
can be made to the rules.
The Agency, then,
would submit the rules at second notice to USEPA as our
3
state
implementation plan)
SIP.
We would’ supplement
the SIP submittal with the final rules once they are
promulgated.
These activities should have the effect
of having Illinois removed from the deficiency list
prior to publication while at the same time allowing
the negotiating parties the opportunity to complete
negotiations.
(Agency motion to extend first notice,
p.
6.)
On May 14,
1991,
in reliance on the statements and requests made
by the Agency,
IERG,
and USEPA, the Board granted the Agency’s
motions to suspend emergency rulemaking and to delay second
notice
until
after
May
30,
1991.
Motion to Amend ProDosal
On June 3,
1991, the Agency filed a motion to amend its
proposal.
The proposed amendments are a result of the
negotiations between the Agency, USEPA,
and. IERG.
The Agency
states that although no formal agreement has yet been reached
between the three participants, the Agency believes that the
proposed amendments are approvable by USEPA.
The Agency suggests
amendments to the definition of NTE (Section 218. 104), the
addition of a definition of “rolling limit”
(Section 218.104),
changes to the applicability and compliance date provisions
(Sections 218.103 and 218.106), amendments to the applicability
provisions of Subpart TT (Section 218.980), and revisions to
the
testing provisions in non-CTG categories in Subparts PP,
QQ,
BR,
and TT (Sections 218.105, 218.928, 218.948,
218.968, 218.988, and
218.991).
The Agency maintains that these proposed amendments
are in the best interests of the State and will result in no
negative impact on the environment.
The Agency states that the
amendments are the product of great
effort
to produce an
acceptable and effective SIP revision for the State.
Although
USEPA has not yet indicated that it can approve all of the
suggested revisions,
the Agency believes that ultimate approval
by USEPA can. be obtained.
IERG filed a motion in support of the Agency~smotion to
amend the proposal on June 4, 1991.
IERG
states that it supports
the suggested amendments,
and agrees with the reasons given by
the Agency.
IERG maintains that although it and USEPA have beers
unable to reach a settlement,
IERG believes that the amendments
proposed by the Agency are federally approvable.
Thus, IERG asks
that the Board adopt second notice., of the proposed rules,
including
the Agency’s suggested amendments.
After a review of
the
pleadings,
the
Board
grants
the
Agency’s motion to amend its proposal.
Eased
on.
the statements
made by the Agency and IERG, the Board believes that the proposed
amendments are federally approvable, and will protect the
4
amendments are
federally
approvable,
and will
protect
the
viability
of
the
various
federal
court
appeals’of
the
FIP,
on
which these proposed rules are based.
Language
added to the
~rules
is
indicated
by
underlining,
while
deletions
are
shown
by
strike-throughs.
Many
of
the
motions
and
other
filings
received
during
the
course of this proceeding have urged the Board
to
act
as
quickly
as possible.
The Board shares the participants’ concern for
timely action, and has expedited this proceeding.
Because of its
sensitivity to quick action, the Board today proposes these
rules, as amended,
for second notice.
The Board does so only
eight days after the Agency filed its motion to amend.
This
short time period has not allowed preparation of a full opinion
to accompany the proposed rules.
Although the Board usually
delays adoption of rules until a complete opinion is prepared,
the unusual circumstances of this proceeding merit a change in
this policy.
As stated above,
today the Board proceeds to second
notice of these proposed rules.
The Board will issue a
supplemental opinion as soon as possible.
Additionally. the
Board notes that it has made no attempt to address any Dossible
draftina Droblems in the Aaencv’s proDosal which may be of
concern to JCAR.

second notice, to be filed with the Joint Committee on

Capture
System
Efficiency
Test
Protocols
1)
Applicability
The requirements of subsection
(c) (2) shall apply
to
all
VON
emitting
processes
employing
capture
equipment
(e.g.,
hoods, ducts), except those cases
59
noted
below.
A)
If
a
source
installs
a
permanent
total
enclosure
(PTE)
that meeti Agency and USEPA
specifications, and which directs all VON to
a control device, then the source is exempted
from the requirements
described
in subsection
(C)
(2).
The
Agency
and
USEPA
specifications
to
determine
whether
a
structure
is
considered
a
PTE
are
given
in
Procedure
T
of
Appendix
B
of
this
Part.
In
this
instance,
the
capture
efficiency
is
assumed
to
be
100
percent and the source is still required to
measure control efficiency using appropriate
test
methods
as
specified
in
subsection
(d).
B)
If a source uses a control device designed to
collect
and
recover
VON
(e.g.,
carbon
adsorber),
an
explicit
measurement
of
capture
efficiency is not necessary provided that the
conditions given below are met.
The overall
control of the system can be determined by
directly comparing the input liquid VON to
the recovered liquid VON.
The general
procedure for use in this situation is given
in
40
CFR
60.433, incorporated by reference
in
Section
218.112,
with
the
following
additional restrictions:
i)
The
source
must
be
able
to
equate
solvent usage with solvent recovery on a
24-hour (daily)
basis, rather than a
30-day weighted average, within 72 hours
following the 24—hour period.
In
addition, one of the following two
criteria must be met:
ii)
The solvent recovery system (i.e.,
capture and control system) must be
dedicated to a single process line
(e
.
g., one process line venting to a
carbon adsorber system), or
iii) If the solvent recovery system controls
multiple process lines, then the source
must be
able
to demonstrate that the
overall control
(i.e., the total
recovered solvent VON divided by the sum
of liquid VON input to all process lines
venting to the control system) meets or
exceeds the most stringent standard
applicable for any process line venting
60
to
the
control
system.
2)
Specific Requirements
The capture efficiency of a process line shall be
measured using one of the four protocols given
below.
Any error margin associated with a test
protocol may not be incorporated into the results
of a capture efficiency test.
If these techniques
are not suitable for a particular process, then
the source may use an alternative capture
efficiency protocol, provided that the alternative
protocol is approved by the Agency and approved by
the
USEPA
as
a
SIP
revision.

to the Agency within sixty
(60) days of the
test date.
A copy of the results must be
kept on file with the source for a period of
three
(3) years.
B)
If any changes are made to capture or control
equipment, then the source is required to
notify
the
Agency
and
the
USEPA
of
these
changes and a new test may be required by the
Agency or the USEPA.
C)
The source must notify the Agency 30 days
prior to performing any capture efficiency or
control test.
At that time, the source must
notify the Agency which capture efficiency
protocol and control device test methods will
be used.

as specified in 40 CFR 60.433, incorporated by
reference in Section 218.112,
(and revised by
subsection
(c) (1) (B)
for each solvent recovery
system.
In those cases in which the overall
efficiency is being determined for an entire line,
the
capture
efficiency
used
to calculate the
product of the capture and control efficiency is
the
total
capture
efficiency
over
the
entire
line.
2)
For coating lines which are both chosen by the
owner or operator to comply with Section
218.207(a),
(d),
(e),
(f), or
(g) by the
alternative in Section 218

207 (b) (2) and meet the
criteria allowing them to comply with Section
218.207 instead of Section 218.204, the overall
efficiency of the capture system and control
device,
as determined by the test methods and
procedures specified in subsections
(c),
(d) and
(e) (1), shall be no less than the equivalent
overall
efficiency
which
shall
be
calculated
by
the
following
equation:
E
=
(t~/0M~
-
VOM~/VON8) x 100
64
where:

Section 218.204
Emission Limitations for Manufacturing Plants
Except as provided in Section 218.208, no owner or operator of a
coating
line
shall
apply
at
any
time
any
coating
in
which
the
VON
85
content
exceeds
the
following
emission
limitations
for
the
specified coating.
The following emission limitations are
expressed
in
units
of
VOM per
volume
of
coating
(minus
water
and
any compounds which are specifically exempted from the definition
of VON) as applied at each coating applicator, except where
noted.
Compounds which are specifically exempted from the
definition of VOM should be treated as water for the purpose of
calculating
the
“less
water”
part
of the coating composition.
Compliance with this Subpart must be demonstrated through the
applicable coating analysis test methods and procedures specified
in Section 218.105(a)
and the recordkeeping
and
reporting
requirements specified in Section 218.211(c).
(Note:
The
equation presented in Section 218.206 shall be used to calculate
emission
limitations
for
determining
compliance
by
add-on
controls,
credits
for
transfer
efficiency,
emissions
trades
and
cross—line averaging.)
The emission limitations are as follows:
a)
Automobile or Light-Duty

(Note:
The
prime
surfacer
coat
limitation
is
based
upon
a transfer efficiency of 30 percent.
The use of
transfer
efficiency
credits
can
be
allowed
only
if
approved by the Agency and approved by the USEPA as a
SIP
revision.
3)
Topcoat

solids
deposited.
Compliance with the limitation shall be based on the
daily-weighted
average
VOM
content
from
the entire
topcoat operation
(all topcoat spray booths,
flash-off
areas and bake ovens).
Compliance shall be
demonstrated in accordance with the topcoat protocol
for automobiles and light—duty trucks referenced in
Section 218.105(b).
Section 218.205 does not apply to
the topcoat limitation.)
At least 180 days prior to
the initial compliance date, the owner or operator of a
coating line subject to the topcoat limitation shall
have submitted to the USEPA a detailed proposal
specifying the method of demonstrating compliance with
the
protocol.
The
proposal
shall
have
included,
at
a
minimum,
a
comprehensive
plan
(including
a
rationale)
for
determining
the
transfer
efficiency
at
each
booth
through
the
use
of
in-plant,
or
pilot
testing;
the
selection of coatings to be tested (for the purpose of
86
determining transfer efficiency)
including the
rationale for coating groupings; and the method for
determining
the analytic VON content: of as
appliedcoatings and the formulation solvent content of
as applied coatings.
Upon approval of the protocol by
the USEPA, the source may proceed with the compliance
demonstration.

Section 218.208
Exemptions From Emission Limitations
97
a)
Exemptions for all source categories except wood
furniture
coating.
The
limitations
of
this
Subpart
shall
not
apply
to
coating
lines
within
a
facility,
that
otherwise
would
be
subject
to
the
same
subsection
of
Section
218.204
(because
they
belong
to
the
same
source category,
e.g. can coating), provided that
combined
actual
emissions
of
VON
from
all
lines
at
the
facility subject to that subsection never exceed
6.8 kg/day
(15 lbs/day) before the application of
capture systems and control devices.
(For example, can
coating lines within a plant would not be subject to
the
limitations
of
Section
218.204(b)
if
the
combined
actual emissions of VON from the can coating lines
never exceed 6.8 kg/day
(15 lbs/day) before the
application of capture systems and control devices.)
Volatile organic material emissions from
heavy
off-highway vehicle products coating lines must be
combined with VON emissions from miscellaneous metal
parts and products coating lines to determine
applicability.
Any owner or operator of a coating
facility shall comply with the applicable coating
analysis test methods and procedures specified in
Section 218.105(a)
and the recordkeeping and reporting
requirements specified in Section 218.211(a)
if total
VON emissions from the subject coating lines are always
less than or equal to 6.8 kg/day
(15 lbs/day) before
the application of capture systems and control devices
and, therefore,
are not subject to the limitations of
Section 218.204.
Once a category of coating lines at a
facility is subject to the limitations in Section
218.204, the coating lines are always subject to the
limitations in Section 218.204.
b)
Applicability for wood furniture coating
1)
The limitations of this Subpart shall apply to a
plant’s wood furniture coating lines if the plant
contains process emission sources, not regulated
by Subparts B,
E, F (excluding Section
218.204(1)), H (excluding Section 218.405),
Q,
R,
5,
V,
X,
Y,
or Z of this Part, which as a group
both:
A)
have maximum theoretical emissions of 91 Mg
(100
tons)
or
more
per
calendar
year
of
VON
if
no
air
pollution
control
equipment
were
used,
and
B)
are
not
limited
to
less
than
91
Mg
(100
tons)
of
VON
per
calendar
year
if
no
air
pollution
control equipment were used, through
production
or
capacity
limitations
contained
98
in
a
federally
enforceable
construction
permit or SIP revision.
2)
If a plant ceases to fulfill the criteria of
subsection
(b) (1), the limitations of Section
218.204(1) shall continue to apply to any wood
furniture coating line which was ever subject to
the limitations of Section 218.204(1).
3)
For the purposes of subsection (b), an emission
source shall be considered regulated by a Subpart
if it is subject to the limitations of that
Subpart.
An emission source is not considered
regulated by a Subpart if its emissions are below
the applicability cutoff level or if the source
is
covered by an exemption.
4)
Any owner or operator of a wood furniture coating
line to which the limitations of this Subpart are
not applicable due to the criteria in subsection
(b)
shall, upon request by the Agency or the
USEPA, submit records to the Agency and the USEPA
within 30 calendar days from the date of the
request that document that the coating line is
exempt from the limitations of this Subpart.
Section 218.209
Exemption From General Rule on Use of Organic
Material
No owner or operator of a coating line subject to the limitations
of Section 218.204
is required to meet the limitations of

incorporated by reference in Section 218.112,
consistent
with
the
following
provisions:
a)
Test
annually
those
components
operated
near
extreme
temperature
or
pressure
such
that
they
would
be
unsafe
to
routinely
monitor
and
those
components
which
would
require
the
elevation
of
monitoring
personnel
higher
than
two
meters
above
permanent
worker
access
structures
or
surfaces.
b)
Test
quarterly
all
other
pressure
relief
valves
in
gas
service, pumps in light liquid service, valves in light
liquid
service
and
in
gas
service,
and
compressors.
C)
If
less
than

2
percent
of
the
valves
in
light
liquid
service
and
in
gas
service
tested
pursuant
to
subsection(b)
are
found
not
to
leak
for
five
consecutive
quarters,
no
leak
tests
shall
be
required for three consecutive quarters.
Thereafter,
leak tests shall resume for the next quarter.
If that
test shows less than or equal to 2 percent of the
valves in light liquid service and in gas service are
leaking, then
rio
tests
are
required
for
the
next
three
quarters.
If
more
than
2
percent
are
leaking,
then
tests
are
required
for
the
next
five
quarters.
d)
Observe visually all pump seals weekly.
e)
Test immediately any pump seal from which liquids are
observed dripping.
f)
Test any relief valve within 24 hours after it has
vented to the atmosphere.
g)
Routine instrument monitoring of valves which are not
externally regulated, flanges, and equipment in heavy
liquid service, is not required.
However, any valve
which
is
not
externally
regulated,
flange
or
piece
of
equipment in heavy liquid service that is found to be
leaking on the basis of sight, smell or sound shall be
repaired
as
soon as practicable but no later than
127
30 days after the leak is found.
h)
Test
immediately
after
repair
any
component
that
was
found leaking.
i)
Within
one
hour
of
its
detection,
a
weatherproof,
readily visible tag,
in bright colors such as red or
yellow, bearing an identification number and the date
on which the leak was detected must be affixed on the

VON Measurement Techniques for Capture Efficiency
Procedure Gi
-
Captured VOC Emissions
1.
INTRODUCTION
1.1
Applicability.
This procedure is applicable for determining
the volatile organic compounds (VOC) content of captured gas
streams.
It is intended to be used as
-
a segment in the
development of liquid/gas or gas/gas protocols for determining
VOC capture efficiency (CE) for surface coating and printing
operations.
The procedure may not be acceptable in certain
site—specific situations,
e.g., when:
(1) direct fired heaters or
other circumstances affect the quantity of VOC at the control
device inlet; and
(2). particulate organic aerosols are formed in
the process and are present in the captured emissions.
12
Principle.
The amount of VOC captured
(G)
is calculated as
the sum of the products of the VOC content
(CGJ), the flow rate
(Q~),and the sample time
(Tc)
from each captured emissions
point.
1.3
Estimated
Measurement
Uncertainty.
The
measurement
uncertainties are estimated for each captured or fugitive
emissions point as follows:
=
5.5 percent and
C~
=
±5.0percent.
Based on these numbers, the probable
uncertainty for G is estimated at about ±7~4
percent.
1.4
Sampling Requirements.
A capture efficiency test shall
consist of at least three sampling runs.
The sampling time for
each
run
should be at least
8 hours, unless otherwise approved.
1.5
Notes.
Because this procedure is often applied in highly
explosive areas, caution and .care should be exercised in choosing
appropriate equipment and installing and using the equipment.
Mention of trade names or company products does not constitute
endorsement.
All gas concentrations (percent, ppm) are by
volume,
unless
otherwise
noted.
2.
APPARATUS AND REAGENTS
2.1
Gas VOC Concentration.
A schematic of the measurement
system is shown in Figure
1.
The main components are described
below:
2.1.1
Sample Probe.
Stainless steel, or equivalent.
The probe
shall be heated to prevent VOC condensation.
2.1.2
Calibration Valve Assembly.
Three-way valve assembly at
the outlet of sample probe to direct the zero and calibration
190
gases to the analyzer.
Other methods, such as quick—connect
lines,
to route calibration gases to the outlet of the sample
probe are acceptable.
2.1.3
Sample Line.
Stainless steel or Teflon tubing to
transport the sample gas to the analyzer.
The sample line must
be heated to prevent condensation.
2.1.4
Sample Pump.
A leak-free pump, to pull the sample gas
through the system at a flow rate sufficient to minimize the
response time of the measurement system.
The components of the
pump that contact the gas stream shall be constructed of
stainless steel or Teflon.
The sample pump must be heated to
prevent condensation.
2.1.5
Sample Flow Rate Control.
A sample flow rate control
valve and rotameter,
or equivalent,
to maintain a constant
sampling rate within 10 percent.
The flow rate control valve and
rotameter must be heated to prevent condensation.
A control
valve may also be located on the sample pump bypass loop to
assist in controlling the sample pressure and flow rate.
2.1.6
Sample Gas Manifold.
Capable. of diverting a portion of
the sample gas stream to the flame ionization analyzer (FIA),
and
the remainder to the bypass discharge vent.
The manifold
components shall be constructed of stainless steel or Teflon.
If
captured or fugitive emissions are to be measured at multiple
locations, the measurement system shall be designed to use
separate sampling probes,
lines, and pumps for each measurement
location and a common sample gas manifold and FIA.
The sample
gas manifold and connecting lines to the FIA must be heated to
prevent condensation.
2.1.7
organic Concentration Analyzer.
An FIA with a span value
of 1
•
5 times the• expected concentration as propane; however,
other span values may be used if it can be demonstrated that they
would provide more accurate measurements.
The system shall be
capable of meeting or exceeding the following specifications:
2.1.7.1
Zero Drift.
Less than ±3Qpercent of the span value.
2.1.7.2
Calibration Drift.
Less than ±3.0percent of the span
value.
2.1.7.3
Calibration Error.
Less than ±5.0percent of the
calibration gas value.
2.1.7.4
Response Time.
Less than 30 seconds.
2.1.8
Integrator/Data Acquisition System.
An analog or digital
device or computerized data acquisition system used to integrate
the FIA response or compute the average response and record
191
measurement data.
The minimum data sampling frequency for
computing average or integrated values is one measurement value
~very 5 seconds.
The device shall be capable of recording
average values at least once per minute.
2.1.9
Calibration and Other Gases.
Gases used for calibration,
fuel, and combustion air (if required)
are contained in
compressed gas cylinders.
All calibration gases shall be
traceable to NIST standards and shall be certified by the
manufacturer to ±1percent of the tag value.
Additionally, the
manufacturer of the cylinder should provide a recommended shelf
life for each calibration gas cylinder over which the
concentration does not change more than ±2percent from the
certified value.
For calibration gas values not generally
available,
alternative methods for preparing calibration gas
mixtures,
such
as
dilution
systems,
may
be
used
with
prior
approval.
2.1.9.1
Fuel.
A 40 percent H21/60 percent He or 40 percent H2/60
percent N2 gas mixture is recommended to avoid an oxygen
synergism effect that reportedly occurs when oxygen concentration
varies significantly from a mean value.
2.1.9.2
Carrier Gas.
High purity air with less than 1 ppm of
organic material
(as propane or carbon equivalent)
or less than
0.1
percent
of
the
span
value,
whichever
is
greater.
2.1.9.3
FIA
Linearity
Calibration
Gases.
Low—,
mid—,
and
high—range
gas
mixture
standards
with
nominal
propane
concentrations
of
20-30,
45-55,
and
70-80
percent
of
the
span
value in air, respectively.
Other calibration values and other
span
values
may
be
used
if
it
can
be
shown
that
more
accurate
measurements
would
be
achieved.
2.1.10
Particulate Filter.
An in—stack or an out-of-stack glass
fiber filter is recommended if
exhaust
gas
particulate
loading
is
significant.
An
out-of-stack
filter
must
be
heated
to
prevent
any condensation unless it can be demonstrated that no
condensation occurs.

DETERMINATION OF VOLUMETRIC FLOW RATE OF
CAPTURED
EMISSIONS
3.1
Locate all points where emissions are captured from the
affected facility.
Using Method
1, determine .the sampling
points.
Be sure to check each site for cyclonic or swirling
flow.
3.2
Measure the velocity at each sampling site at least once
every hour during each sampling run using Method 2 or 2A.
4.
DETERMINATION OF VOC CONTENT OF
CAPTURED
EMISSIONS
4.1
Analysis Duration.
Measure the VOC responses at each
captured emissions point during
the
entire test run or,
if
applicable, while the process is operating.
If there are
multiple captured emission locations, design
a sampling system to
allow a single FIA to be used to determine the VOC responses at
all sampling locations.
4.2
Gas VOC Concentration.
-
4.2.1
Assemble the sample train as shown in Figure
1.
Calibrate
the PIA according to the procedure in Section 5.1.
4.2.2
Conduct a system check according to the procedure in
Section 5.3.
4.2.3
Install the sample probe so that the probe is centrally
located in the stack, pipe,
or duct,
and is sealed tightly at the
stack port connection.
4.2.4
Inject zero gas at the calibration valve assembly.
Allow
the measurement system response to reach zero.
Measure the
system response time as the time required for the system to reach
the effluent concentration after the calibration valve has been
returned to the effluent sampling position.
4.2.5
Conduct a system check before and a system drift check
after each sampling run according to the procedures in Sections
5.2 and 5.3.
If the drift check following a run indicates
unacceptable performance, the
run
is not valid.
The tester may
elect to perform system drift checks during the run not to exceed
one drift check per hour.
4.2.6
Verify that the sample lines,
filter, and pump
temperatures are 120 ~ 5°C.
4.2.7
Begin sampling at the start of the test period and
continue to sample during the entire run.
Record the starting
and ending times and any required process information as
appropriate.
If multiple captured emission locations are sampled
using a single FIA, sample at each .location for the same amount
193
of time
(e.g.,
2 minutes) and continue to switch from one
location to another for the entire test run.
Be sure that total
sampling time at each location is the same at the end of the test
run.
Collect at least
4 separate measurements. from each sample
point during each hour of testing.
Disregard the measurements at
each sampling location until two times the response time of the
measurement system has elapsed.
Continue sampling for at least
1
minute and record the concentration measurements.
4.3
Background Concentration.
4.3.1
Locate all NDO’sof the TTE.
A sampling point shall be
centrally located outside of the T~Eat
4
equivalent diameters
from each NDO,

Procedure G.2
-
Captured VOC Emissions (Dilution Technique)
1.
INTRODUCTION
1.1
Applicability.
This procedure is applicable for determining
the volatile organic compounds
(VOC)
content
of captured gas
streams.
It
is
intended
to
be
used
as
a
segment
in
the
development of a gas/gas protocol in which fugitive emissions are
measured for determining VOC capture efficiency
(CE) for surface
coating and printing operations.
A dilution system is used to
reduce the VOC concentration of the captured emission to about
the same concentration as the fugitive emissions.
The procedure
may not be acceptable in certain site—specific situations,
e.g.,
when:
(1) direct fired heaters or other circumstances affect the
quantity of VOC at the control device inlet; and
(2) particulate
organic aerosols are formed in the process and are present in the
captured emissions.
1.2
Principle.
The amount of VOC captured
(G)
is calculated as
the sum of the products of the VOC content
(CGJ),
the flow rate
and the sampling time
(Ta) from each captured emissions
point.
1.3
Estimated Measurement Uncertainty.
The measurement
uncertainties are estimated for each captured or fugitive
emissions point as follows:
=
±5~5
percent and
CGJ
=
±5
percent.
Based on these numbers, the probable uncertainty for G
is estimated at about ±7•4percent.
1.4
Sampling Requirements.
A capture efficiency test shall
consist of at least three sampling runs.
The sampling time for
each
run
should be at least
8 hours, unless otherwise approved.
1.5
Notes.
Because this procedure is often applied in highly
explosive areas,
caution and care should be exeröised in choosing
appropriate
equipment
and
installing
and
using
the
equipment.
Mention of trade names or company products does not constitute
endorsement.
All
gas
concentrations
(percent,
ppm)
are
by
volume,
unless otherwise noted.

1.3
Measurement Uncertainty.
The measurement uncertainties are
estimated for each fugitive emissions point as follows:

DETERMINATION OF VOLUMETRIC FLOW RATE
OF FUGITIVE EMISSIONS
3.1
Preliminary Determinations.
The purpose of this exercise is
to determine which exhaust points should be measured for
volumetric flow rates and VOC concentrations.
3.1.1
Forced Draft Openings.
Identify all forced draft
openings.
Determine the volumetric flow rate according to Method
2.
3.1.2
NDO’s Exhaust Points.
The NDO’s in the roof of a facility
are considered to be exhaust points.
Determine volumetric flow
rate from these NDO’s.
Divide the cross—sectional area according
to Method
1 using 12 equal areas.
Use the appropriate velocity
measurement devices, e.g., propeller anemometers.
3.1.3
Other NDO’s.
3.1.3.1
This step is optional.
Determine the exhaust flow rate,
including that of the control device, from the enclosure and the
intake air flow rate.
If the exhaust flow rate divided by the
intake air flow rate is greater than 1.1,
then
all other NDO’s
are not considered to be significant exhaust points.
3.1.3.2
If the option above is not taken,
identify all other
NDO’s and other potential points through which fugitive emissions
may escape the enclosure.
Then use the following criteria to determine whether flow rates
and VOC concentrations need to be measured:
3.1.3.2.1
Using the appropriate flow direction indicator,
determine the flow direction.
An NDO with zero or inward flow is
not an exhaust point.
3.1.3.2.2
Measure the outward volumetric flow rate from the
remainder of the NDO’s.
If the collective flow rate is 2
percent, or less,
of the flow rate from Sections 3.1.1 and 3.1.2,
then these NDO’s, except those within two equivalent diameters
207
(based
on
NDO opening) from VOC sources, may be considered to be
non—exhaust points.
3.1.3.2.3
If the percentage calculated in Section 3.1.3.2.2 is
greater than 2 percent, those NDO’s (except those within two
equivalent diameters from VOC sources) whose volumetric flow rate
total
2 percent of the flow rate from Sections 3.1.1 and 3.1.2
may be considered as non-exhaust points.
All remaining NDO’s
shall be measured for volumetric flow rate and VOC concentrations
during the CE test.
3.1.3.2.4
The tester may choose to measure VOC concentrations at
the forced exhaust points and the NDOts.
If the total
VOC
emissions from the NDO’s are less than 2 percent of the emissions
from
the
forced
draft
and
roof
NDO’s, then these NDO’s may be
eliminated from further consideration.
3.2
Determination of Flow Rates.
3.2.1
Measure the volumetric flow rate at all locations
identified as exhaust points in Section 3.1.
Divide each exhaust
opening into
9 equal areas for rectangular openings and 8 for
circular
openings.
3.2.2
Measure the velocity at each site at least once every hour
during each sampling
run
using Method 2 or 2A,
if applicable, or
using the low velocity instruments in Section 2.2.2.
4.
DETERMINATION OF VOC CONTENT OF FUGITIVE EMISSIONS
4.1
Analysis Duration.
Measure the VOC responses at each
fugitive emission point during the entire test run or,
if
applicable, while the process is operating.
If there are
multiple emissions locations,
design a sampling system to allow a
single FIA to be used to determine the VOC responses at all
sampling locations.
4.2
Gas VOC Concentration.
4.2.1
Assemble the sample train as shown in Figure 1.
Calibrate
the FIA and conduct a system check according to the procedures in
Sections 5.1 and 5.3, respectively.
4.2.2
Install the sample probe so that the probe is centrally
located in the stack, pipe, or duct, and is sealed tightly at the
stack port connection.
4.2.3
Inject zero gas at the calibration valve assembly.
Allow
the measurement system response to reach zero.
Measure the
system response time as the time required for the system to reach
the effluent concentration after the calibration valve has been
returned to the effluent sampling position.
208
4.2.4
Conduct
a
system check before and
a system drift check
after each sampling run according to the procedures in Sections
5.2 and 5.3.
If the drift check following a run indicates
unacceptable performance,
the
run
is not valid.
The tester may
elect
to
perform
drift
checks
during
the
run
not
to
exceed
one
drift check per hour.
4.2.5
Verify that the sample lines, filter, and pump
temperatures are 120
±50c.
4.2.6
Begin sampling at the start of the test period and
continue
to
sample
during
the
entire
run.
Record the starting
and ending times and any required process information as
appropriate.
If multiple emission locations are sampled using a
single FIA, sample at each location for the same amount of time
(e.g.,
2 minutes) and continue to switch from one location to
another for the entire test run.
Be sure that total sampling
time at each location is the same at the end of the test run.
Collect at least
4 separate measurements from each sample point
during each hour of testing.
Disregard the response measurements
at each sampling location until two times the response time of
the measurement system has elapsed.
Continue sampling for at
least
1 minute and record the concentration measurements.
4.3
Alternative Procedure
The direct interface sampling and
analysis procedure described in Section 7.2 of Method 18 may be
used to determine the gas VOC concentration.
The system must be
designed to collect and analyze at least one sample every 10
minutes.

DETERMINATION OF LIQUID INPUT WEIGHT
3.1
weight Difference.
Determine the amount of material
introduced to the process as the weight difference of the feed
material before and after each sampling run.
In determining the
total
VOC
containing liquid usage, account for:
(a) the initial
(beginning)
VOC
containing
liquid
mixture;
(b) any solvent added
during the test run;
(C)
any coating added during the test run;
221
and
(d)
any residual
VOC
containing liquid mixture remaining at
the end of the sample run.
3.1.1
Identify all points where VOC containing liquids are
introduced to the process.
To obtain an accurate measurement of
VOC containing liquids, start with an empty fountain (if
applicable).
After completing the run, drain the liquid in the
fountain back into the liquid drum (if possible), and weigh the
drum again.
Weigh the VOC containing liquids to tO.5 percent of
the total weight
(full)
or ±0.1percent of the total weight of
VOC containing liquid used during the sample run, whichever is
less.
If
the
residual
liquid
cannot
be
returned
to
the
drum,
drain the fountain into a preweighed empty drum to determine the
final weight of the
liquid.
3.1.2
If it is not possible to measure a single representative
mixture, then weigh the various components separately
(e.g.,
if
solvent is added during the sampling run, weigh the solvent
before it is added to the mixture).
If a fresh drum of VOC
containing liquid is needed during the run, then weigh both the
empty drum and fresh drum.
3.2
Volume Measurement (Alternative).
If direct weight
measurements are not feasible, the -tester may use volume meters
and flow rate meters (and density measurements) to determine the
weight of liquids used if it can be demonstrated that the
technique produces results equivalent to the direct weight
measurements.
If a single representative mixture cannot be
measured, measure the components separately.
4.
DETERMINATION OF VOC CONTENT IN INPUT LIQUIDS
4.1
Collection of Liquid Samples.
4.1.1
Collect a 100-mi or larger sample of the VOC containing
liquid mixture at each application location at the beginning and
end of each test run.
A separate sample should be taken of each
VOC
containing
liquid
added to the application mixture during the
test
run.
If
a
fresh
drum is needed during the sampling run,
then obtain a sample from the fresh drum.
4.1
•
2
When collecting the sample, ground the sample container to
the coating drum.
Fill
the sample container as close to the rim
as possible to minimize the amount of headspace.
4.1.3
After the sample is collected,
seal the container so the
sample cannot leak out or evaporate.
4.1.4
Label the container to identify clearly the contents.
4.2
Liquid Sample VOC Content.
222
4.2.1
Assemble the liquid VOC content analysis system as shown
in Figure
1.
4.2.2
Permanently identify all of the critical orifices that may
be used.
Calibrate each critical orifice under the expected
operating conditions
(i.e.,
sample vacuum and temperature)
against a volume meter as described in Section 5.3.
4.2.3
Label and tare the sample vessels
(including the stoppers
and caps)
and the syringes.
4.2.4
Install an empty sample vessel and perform a leak test of
the system.
Close the carrier gas valve and atmospheric vent and
evacuate the sample vessel to 250 mm
(10 in.) Hg absolute or less
using the aspirator.
Close the toggle valve at the inlet
f-o the
aspirator and observe the vacuum for at least one minute.
Ef
there is any change in the sample pressure, release the vacuum,
adjust or repair the apparatus as necessary and repeat the leak
test.
4.2.5
Perform the analyzer calibration and linearity checks
according to the procedure in Section 5.1.
Record the responses
to each of the calibration gases and the back—pressure setting of
the FIA.
4.2.6
Establish the appropriate dilution ratio by adjusting the
aspirator air supply or substituting critical orifices.
Operate
the aspirator at a vacuum of at least 25
mm
(1 in.) Hg greater
than the vacuum necessary to achieve critical flow.
Select the
dilution ratio so that the maximum response of the FIA to the
sample does not exceed the high—range calibration gas.
4.2.7
Perform system calibration checks at two levels by
introducing compressed gases at the inlet to the sample vessel
while the aspirator and dilution devices are operating.
Perform
these checks using the carrier gas (zero concentration) and the
system calibration gas.
If the response to the carrier gas
exceeds ±Q5percent of span,
clean or repair the apparatus and
repeat the check.
Adjust the dilution ratio as necessary to
achieve the correct response to the upscale check, but do not
adjust the analyzer calibration.
Record the identification of
the orifice, aspirator air supply pressure, FIA back—pressure,
and the responses of the FIA to the carrier and system
calibration gases.
4.2.8
After completing the above checks,
inject the system
calibration gas for approximately 10 minutes.
Time the exact
duration of the gas injection using a stopwatch.
Determine the
area under the FIA response curve and calculate the system
response factor based on the sample gas flow rate,
gas
concentration, and the duration of the injection as compared to
223
the integrated response using Equations 2 and 3.
4.2.9
Verify that the sample oven and sample line temperatures
are 120 t5°Cand that the water bath temperature is 100 t5°C.
4.2.10
Fill a tared syringe with approximately 1 g of the VOC
containing
liquid
and weigh it.
Transfer the liquid to a tared
sample vessel.
Plug the sample vessel to minimize sample loss.
Weigh the sample vessel containing the liquid to determine the
amount of sample actually received.
Also,
as a quality control
check, weigh the empty syringe to determine the amount of
material delivered.
The two coating sample weights should agree
within ±0.02g.
If not, repeat the procedure until an acceptable
sample is obtained.
4.2.11
Connect the vessel to the analysis system.
Adjust the
aspirator supply pressure to the correct value.
Open the valve
on the carrier gas supply to the sample vessel and adjust it to
provide a slight excess flow to the atmospheric vent.
As soon as
the initial response of the
FIA
begins to decrease, immerse the
sample vessel in the water bath.
(Applying heat to the sample
vessel too soon may cause the FID response to exceed the
calibrated range of the instrument, and thus invalidate the
analysis.)
4.2.12
Continuously measure and record the response of the
FIA
until all of the volatile material has been evaporated from the
sample and the instrument response has returned to the baseline
(i.e., response less than 0.5 percent of the span value).
Observe the aspirator supply pressure, FIA back—pressure,
atmospheric vent,
and other system operating parameters during
the run; repeat the analysis procedure if any of these parameters
deviate from the values established during the system calibration
checks in Section 4.2.7.
After each sample perform the drift
check described in Section 5.2.
If the drift check results are
acceptable, calculate the VOC content of the sample using the
equations in Section 7.
Integrate the area under the FIA
response curve, ordetermine the average concentration response
and the duration of sample analysis.
5.
CALIBRATION AND
QUALITY ASSURANCE
5.1
FIA Calibration and Linearity Check.
Make necessary
adjustments to the air and fuel supplies for the FIA and ignite
the burner.
Allow the FIA to warm up for the period recommended
by the manufacturer.
Inject a calibration gas into the
measurement system and adjust the back-pressure regulator to the
value required to achieve the flow rates specified by the
manufacturer.
Inject the zero— and the high—range calibration
gases and adjust the analyzer calibration to provide the proper
responses.
Inject the low- and mid—range gases and record the
responses of the measurement system.
The calibration and
224
linearity of the system are acceptable if the responses for all
four
gases
are
within
5
percent
of
the
respective
gas
values.
If
the performance of the system is not acceptable, repair or adjust
the system and repeat the linearity check.
Conduct a calibration
and linearity check after assembling the analysis system and
after a major change is made to the system.
5.2
Systems Drift Checks.
After each sample, repeat the system
calibration
checks
in
Section
4.2.7
before
any
adjustments
to
the
FIA or measurement system are made.
If the zero or calibration
drift exceeds ±3percent of the span value, discard the result
and repeat the analysis.
5.3
Critical Orifice Calibration.
5.3.1
Each critical orifice must be calibrated at the specific
operating conditions that it will be used.
Therefore,
assemble
all components of the
liquid
sample analysis system as shown in
Figure
3.
A stopwatch is also required.
5.3.2
Turn on the sample oven, sample line, and water bath
heaters and allow the system to reach the proper operating
temperature.
Adjust the aspirator to a vacuum of 380 mm
(15 in.)
Hg vacuum.
Measure the time required for one soap bubble to move
a known distance and record barometric pressure.
5.3.3
Repeat the calibration procedure at a vacuum of 406 mm
(16
in.) Hg and at 25-mm
(1-in.) Hg intervals until three consecutive
determinations provide the same flow rate.
Calculate the
critical flow rate for the orifice in mi/mm
at standard
conditions.
Record the vacuum necessary to achieve critical
flow.

Procedure T
—
Criteria for and Verification of a Permanent or
Temporary Total Enclosure
1.
INTRODUCTION
1.1
Applicability.
This procedure is used to determine whether
a permanent or temporary enclosure meets the criteria of a total
enclosure.
1.2
Principle.
An enclosure is evaluated against a set of
criteria.
If the criteria are met and if all the exhaust gases
are ducted to a control device, then the volatile organic
compounds
(VOC)
capture efficiency
(CE)
is assumed to be 100
percent and CE need not be measured.
However,
if part of the
exhaust gas stream is not ducted to a control device, CE must be
determined.
2.
DEFINITIONS
2.1
Natural Draft Opening
(NDO)

Any permanent opening in the
enclosure that remains open during operation of the facility and
is not connected to a duct in whicha fan is installed.
2.2
Permanent Total Enclosure (PTE)
--
A permanently installed
enclosure that completely surrounds a source of emissions such
that
all
VOC

CRITERIA OF A PERMANENT
TOTAL
ENCLOSURE
4.1
Same as Sections 3.1 and 3.3
—
3.5.
4.2
All VOC emissions must be captured and contained for
discharge through a control device.
5.
PROCEDURE
5.1
Determine the equivalent diameters of the NDO’s and
determine the distances from each VOC emitting point to all
NDO’s.
Determine the equivalent diameter of each exhaust duct or
hood and its distance to all NDO’s.
Calculate the distances in
terms of equivalent diameters.
The number of equivalent
diameters shall be at least 4.
5.2
Measure the total area
(As) of the enclosure and the total
area
(A.,~) of all NDO’s of the enclosure.
Calculate the NDO to
enclosure area ratio
(NEAR) as follows:
NEAR
=
A,IJAt
The NEAR must be
0.05.
5.3
Measure the volumetric flow rate, corrected to standard
conditions,of each gas stream exiting the enclosure through an
exhaust duct or hood using EPA Method 2.
In some cases
(e.g.,
when the building is the enclosure),
it may be necessary to
measure the volumetric flow rate, corrected to standard
conditions, of each gas stream entering the enclosure through a
forced makeup air duct using Method 2.
Calculate FV using the
following equation:
where:
Q0
=
the sum of the volumetric flow from all gas streams
exiting the enclosure through an exhaust duct or
hood.
Q~
=
the sum of the volumetric flow from all gas streams
into the enclosure through a forced makeup air duct;
zero,
if there is no forced makeup air into the
enclosure.
=
total area of all NDO’s in enclosure.
228
The FV shall be at least 3,600 rn/hr
(200 fpm).
5.4
Verify that the direction of air flow through all NDO’s is
inward.
Use streamers, smoke tubes, tracer gases, etc.
Strips
of plastic wrapping film have been found to be effective.
Monitor the direction of air flow at intervals of at least 10
minutes for at least
1 hour.
6.
QUALITY ASSURANCE
6.1
The success of this protocol lies in designing the T~Eto
simulate the conditions that exist without the TTE, i.e., the
effect of the TTE on the normal flow patterns around the affected
facility or the amount of fugitive VOC emissions should be
minimal.
The TTE must enclose the application stations, coating
reservoirs,
and all areas from the application station to the
oven.
The oven does not have to be enclosed if it is under
negative pressure.
The NDO’s of the temporary enclosure and a
fugitive exhaust fan must be properly sized and placed.
6.2.
Estimate the ventilation rate of the TTE that best
simulates
the
conditions
that
exist
without
the
TTE,
i.e., the
effect of the TTE on the normal flow patterns around the affected
facility or the amount of fugitive VOC emissions should be
minimal.
Figure 1 may be used as an aid.
Measure the
concentration
(CG) and flow rate
(Q6)
of the captured gas stream,
specify a safe concentration
(CF)
for the fugitive gas stream,
estimate the CE, and then use the plot in Figure 1 to determine
the
volumetric flowrate of the fugitive gas stream
(QF)•
A
fugitive VOC emission exhaust fan that has a variable flow
control is desirable.
6.2.1
Monitor the concentration of VOC into the capture device
without the TTE.
To minimize the effect of temporal variation on
the captured emissions, the baseline measurement should be made
over
as
long
a
time
period
as
practical.
However,
the
process
conditions must be the same for the measurement in Section 6.2.3
as they are for this baseline measurement.
This may require
short measuring times for this quality control check before and
after the construction of the TTE.
6.2.2
After the TTE is constructed, monitor the VOC
concentration inside the TTE.
This concentration shall not
continue to increase and must not exceed the safe level according
to OSHA requirements for permissible exposure limits.
An
increase in VOC concentration indicates poor TTE design or poor
capture efficiency.
6.2.3
Monitor the concentration of VOC into the capture device
with the TTE.
To limit the effect of the TTE on the process, the
VOC concentration with and without the TTE must be within ±10
percent.
If the measurements do not agree, adjust the
229
ventilation rate from the TTE until they agree within 10 percent.

TRE
DETERMINATION
The following reference methods and procedures are required for
determining the offgas flowrate, hourly emissions,
and the net
heating value of the gas coinbusted to calculate the vent stream
TRE.
231
a)

The sampling site for the vent stream flowrate and molar
composition determination prescribed in
(b) and
(c)
shall be
prior to the inlet of any combustion device, prior to any

post—reactor introduction of halogenated compounds into the
vent stream.
Subject to the preceding restrictions on the
sampling
site,
it
shall
be
after
the
final
recovery
device.
If any gas stream other than the air oxidation vent stream is
normally conducted through the recovery system of the
affected facility, such stream shall be rerouted or turned
off while the vent stream is sampled, but shall be routed
normally prior to the measuring of the initial value of the
monitored parameters for determining compliance with the
recommended RACT.
If the air oxidation vent stream is
normally routed through any equipment which is not a part of
the air oxidation process as defined in 35 Ill. Adm. Code
211.122, such equipment shall be bypassed by the vent stream
while the vent stream is sampled, but shall not be bypassed
during the measurement of the initial value of the monitored
parameters for determining compliance with Subpart V.
b)
The molar composition of the vent stream shall be determined
using the following methods:
1)
Reference Method 18 to measure the concentration of all
organics, including those containing halogens, unless a
significant portion of the compounds of interest are
polymeric (high molecular weight), can polymerize before
analysis or have low vapor pressures,
in which case
Reference Method 25(a)
shall be used.

if
necessary.
c)

(1/ppm)
(mole/scm) (MJ/kcal)
where standard temperature for mole/scm is
20C.
Ci
=
Concentration of sample component i, reported on a
wet basis,
in ppm, as measured by Reference Method
18
or

Hi
=
Net heat of combustion of sample component i,
kcal/mole based on combustion at 25 C and 760 mm Hg.
If
