NR 666.110NR 666.110Waiver of DRE trial burn for boilers. Boilers that operate under the special requirements of this section, and that do not burn hazardous waste containing (or derived from) EPA hazardous waste numbers F020, F021, F022, F023, F026 or F027, are considered to be in conformance with the DRE standard of s. NR 666.104 (1), and a trial burn to demonstrate DRE is waived. When burning hazardous waste, all of the following apply:
NR 666.110(1)(1)A minimum of 50% of fuel fired to the device shall be fossil fuel, fuels derived from fossil fuel, tall oil, or, if approved by the department on a case-by-case basis, other nonhazardous fuel with combustion characteristics comparable to fossil fuel. Such fuels are termed primary fuel for purposes of this section. (Tall oil is a fuel derived from vegetable and rosin fatty acids.) The 50% primary fuel firing rate shall be determined on a total heat or mass input basis, whichever results in the greater mass feed rate of primary fuel fired.
NR 666.110(2)(2)Boiler load may not be less than 40%. Boiler load is the ratio at any time of the total heat input to the maximum design heat input.
NR 666.110(3)(3)Primary fuels and hazardous waste fuels shall have a minimum as-fired heating value of 8,000 Btu/lb, and each material fired in a burner where hazardous waste is fired shall have a heating value of at least 8,000 Btu/lb, as-fired.
NR 666.110(4)(4)The device shall operate in conformance with the carbon monoxide standard provided by s. NR 666.104 (2) (a). Boilers subject to the waiver of the DRE trial burn provided by this section are not eligible for the alternative carbon monoxide standard provided by s. NR 666.104 (3).
NR 666.110(5)(5)The boiler shall be a watertube type boiler that does not feed fuel using a stoker or stoker type mechanism.
NR 666.110(6)(6)The hazardous waste shall be fired directly into the primary fuel flame zone of the combustion chamber with an air or steam atomization firing system, mechanical atomization system, or a rotary cup atomization system under any of the following conditions:
NR 666.110(6)(a)(a) Viscosity. The viscosity of the hazardous waste fuel as-fired may not exceed 300 SSU.
NR 666.110(6)(b)(b) Particle size. When a high pressure air or steam atomizer, low pressure atomizer or mechanical atomizer is used, 70% of the hazardous waste fuel shall pass through a 200 mesh (74 micron) screen, and when a rotary cup atomizer is used, 70% of the hazardous waste shall pass through a 100 mesh (150 micron) screen.
NR 666.110(6)(c)(c) Mechanical atomization systems. Fuel pressure within a mechanical atomization system and fuel flow rate shall be maintained within the design range taking into account the viscosity and volatility of the fuel.
NR 666.110(6)(d)(d) Rotary cup atomization systems. Fuel flow rate through a rotary cup atomization system shall be maintained within the design range taking into account the viscosity and volatility of the fuel.

NR 666.111NR 666.111Standards for direct transfer.
NR 666.111(1)(1)Applicability. The regulations in this section apply to owners and operators of boilers and industrial furnaces subject to s. NR 666.102 or 666.103 if hazardous waste is directly transferred from a transport vehicle to a boiler or industrial furnace without the use of a storage unit.
NR 666.111(2)(2)Definitions.
NR 666.111(2)(a)(a) When used in this section, the following terms have the meanings given in subds. 1. and 2.:
NR 666.111(2)(a)1.1. “Direct transfer equipment” means any device (including but not limited to, such devices as piping, fittings, flanges, valves and pumps) that is used to distribute, meter or control the flow of hazardous waste between a container (i.e., transport vehicle) and a boiler or industrial furnace.
NR 666.111(2)(a)2.2. “Container” means any portable device in which hazardous waste is transported, stored, treated or otherwise handled, and includes transport vehicles that are containers themselves (e.g., tank trucks, tanker-trailers and rail tank cars), and containers placed on or in a transport vehicle.
NR 666.111(2)(b)(b) This section references several requirements provided in subchs. I and J of chs. NR 664 and 665. For purposes of this section, the term tank systems in those referenced requirements means direct transfer equipment as defined in par. (a).
