NR 665.0345NR 665.0345General operating requirements. During start-up and shut-down of an incinerator, the owner or operator may not feed hazardous waste unless the incinerator is at steady state (normal) conditions of operation, including steady state operating temperature and air flow.

NR 665.0347NR 665.0347Monitoring and inspections. The owner or operator shall conduct, as a minimum, all of the following monitoring and inspections when incinerating hazardous waste:
NR 665.0347(1)(1)Monitor existing instruments which relate to combustion and emission control at least every 15 minutes. Immediately make appropriate corrections to maintain steady state combustion conditions either automatically or by the operator. Instruments which relate to combustion and emission control would normally include those measuring waste feed, auxiliary fuel feed, air flow, incinerator temperature, scrubber flow, scrubber pH and relevant level controls.
NR 665.0347(2)(2)Inspect the complete incinerator and associated equipment (pumps, valves, conveyors, pipes, etc.) at least daily for leaks, spills and fugitive emissions, and check all emergency shutdown controls and system alarms to assure proper operation.

NR 665.0351NR 665.0351Closure. At closure, the owner or operator shall remove all hazardous waste and hazardous waste residues (including but not limited to ash, scrubber waters and scrubber sludges) from the incinerator.
NR 665.0351 NoteNote: At closure, as throughout the operating period, unless the owner or operator can demonstrate, according to s. NR 661.0003 (4), that the residue removed from the owner or operator’s incinerator is not hazardous waste, the owner or operator becomes a generator of hazardous waste and shall manage it according to all applicable requirements of chs. NR 662 to 666.

NR 665.0352(1)(1)Owners or operators of incinerators subject to this subchapter may burn EPA hazardous wastes F020, F021, F022, F023, F026 or F027 if they receive an interim license or interim license modification from the department after the owner or operator demonstrates that they can meet the performance standards of subch. O of ch. NR 664 when they burn these wastes.
NR 665.0352(2)(2)The department shall use all of the following standards and procedures to determine whether to issue an interim license or interim license modification:
NR 665.0352(2)(a)(a) The owner or operator shall submit an application to the department containing applicable information in ss. NR 670.019 and 670.062 demonstrating that the incinerator can meet the performance standards in subch. O of ch. NR 664 when they burn these wastes.
NR 665.0352(2)(b)(b) The department shall issue a preliminary determination as to whether the incinerator can meet the performance standards in subch. O of ch. NR 664. The department shall provide notification of this preliminary determination by newspaper advertisement and radio broadcast in the jurisdiction where the incinerator is located. The department shall accept comments on the preliminary determination for 60 days. The department may also hold a public hearing upon request or at the department’s discretion.
NR 665.0352(2)(c)(c) After the close of the public comment period, the department shall issue a decision whether or not to issue an interim license or interim license modification for the incinerator.

subch. P of ch. NR 665Subchapter P — Thermal Treatment
NR 665.0370NR 665.0370Other thermal treatment. This subchapter applies to owners or operators of facilities that thermally treat hazardous waste in devices other than enclosed devices using controlled flame combustion, except as s. NR 665.0001 provides otherwise. Thermal treatment in enclosed devices using controlled flame combustion is subject to the requirements of subch. O if the unit is an incinerator, and subch. H of ch. NR 666, if the unit is a boiler or an industrial furnace as defined in s. NR 660.10.

NR 665.0373NR 665.0373General operating requirements. Before adding hazardous waste, the owner or operator shall bring the thermal treatment process to steady state (normal) conditions of operation, including steady state operating temperature, using auxiliary fuel or other means, unless the process is a non-continuous (batch) thermal treatment process which requires a complete thermal cycle to treat a discrete quantity of hazardous waste.

NR 665.0375NR 665.0375Waste analysis. In addition to the waste analyses required by s. NR 665.0013, the owner or operator shall sufficiently analyze any waste which the owner or operator has not previously treated in the thermal process to enable the owner or operator to establish steady state (normal) or other appropriate (for a non-continuous process) operating conditions (including waste and auxiliary fuel feed) and to determine the type of pollutants which might be emitted. At a minimum, the analysis shall determine all of the following:
NR 665.0375(1)(1)Heating value of the waste.
NR 665.0375(2)(2)Halogen content and sulfur content in the waste.
NR 665.0375(3)(3)Concentrations in the waste of lead and mercury, unless the owner or operator has written, documented data that show that the element is not present.
NR 665.0375 NoteNote: As required by s. NR 665.0073, the owner or operator shall place the results from each waste analysis, or the documented information, in the operating record of the facility.
