The recommendations of Instruments and Apparatus: Measurement of Quantity of Materials, ASME Interim Supplement 19.5 (1971) chapter 4, incorporated by reference in s. NR 440.17 (2) (h) 3., shall be followed for design, construction, installation, calibration and use of nozzles and orifices except as specified in subd. 6. c.
NR 440.215(9)(h)6.c.c. Measurement devices such as flow nozzles and orifices are not required to be recalibrated after they are installed.
NR 440.215(9)(h)6.d.d. All signal conversion elements associated with steam or feedwater flow measurements shall be calibrated according to the manufacturer’s instructions before each dioxin or furan compliance and performance test, and at least once per year.
NR 440.215(9)(h)7.7. To determine compliance with the maximum particulate matter control device temperature requirements under sub. (7) (c), the owner or operator of an affected facility shall install, calibrate, maintain and operate a device for measuring temperature of the flue gas stream at the inlet to the final particulate matter control device on a continuous basis and record the output of the device. Temperature shall be calculated in 4-hour block arithmetic averages.
NR 440.215(9)(h)8.8. Maximum demonstrated MWC unit load shall be determined during the initial compliance test for dioxins/furans and each subsequent performance test during which compliance with the dioxin/furan emission limit under sub. (4) is achieved. Maximum demonstrated MWC unit load shall be the maximum 4- hour arithmetic average load achieved during the most recent test during which compliance with the dioxin/furan limit was achieved.
NR 440.215(9)(h)9.9. The maximum demonstrated particulate matter control device temperature shall be determined during the initial compliance test for dioxins/furans and each subsequent performance test during which compliance with the dioxin/furan emission limit under sub. (4) is achieved. Maximum demonstrated particulate matter control device temperature shall be the maximum 4-hour arithmetic average temperature achieved at the final particulate matter control device inlet during the most recent test during which compliance with the dioxin/furan limit was achieved.
NR 440.215(9)(h)10.10. At a minimum, valid CEMS data for carbon monoxide, steam or feedwater flow and particulate matter control device inlet temperature shall be obtained 75% of the hours per day for 75% of the days per month the affected facility is operated and combusting MSW.
NR 440.215(9)(h)11.11. All valid data shall be used in calculating the parameters specified under this paragraph even if the minimum data requirements of subd. 10. are not met.
NR 440.215(9)(h)12.12. Quarterly accuracy determinations and daily calibration drift tests for carbon monoxide CEMS shall be performed in accordance with procedure 1 of Appendix F of 40 CFR part 60, incorporated by reference in s. NR 440.17.
NR 440.215(9)(j)(j) The following procedures shall be used for calculating MWC unit capacity as defined under sub. (2):
NR 440.215(9)(j)1.1. For MWC units capable of combusting MSW continuously for a 24-hour period, MWC unit capacity in megagrams per day or tons per day of MSW combusted shall be calculated based on 24 hours of operation at the maximum design charging rate. The design heating values under subd. 4. shall be used in calculating the design charging rate.
NR 440.215(9)(j)2.2. For batch MWC units, MWC unit capacity in megagrams per day or tons per day of MSW combusted shall be calculated as the maximum design amount of MSW that can be charged per batch multiplied by the maximum number of batches that could be processed in a 24-hour period. The maximum number of batches that could be processed in a 24-hour period is calculated as 24 hours divided by the design number of hours required to process one batch of MSW, and may include fractional batches. The design heating values under subd. 4. shall be used in calculating the MWC unit capacity in megagrams per day or tons per day of MSW.
NR 440.215 NoteNote: For example, if one batch requires 16 hours then 24/16 or 1.5 batches could be combusted in a 24-hour period.
NR 440.215(9)(j)4.4. MWC unit capacity shall be calculated using a design heating value of 10,500 kilojoules per kilogram (4,500 Btu per pound) for all MSW.
NR 440.215(10)(10)Reporting and recordkeeping requirements. The owner or operator of an affected facility located at an MWC plant with a capacity greater than 225 megagrams per day (250 tons per day) shall provide notification of intent to construct and of planned initial startup date and the type or types of fuels planned for combustion in the affected facility. The MWC unit capacity and MWC plant capacity and supporting capacity calculations shall be provided at the time of the notification of construction.
