Table 5 to Subpart AAAA of Part 60—Requirements for Stack Tests
To measure the following pollutants
Use the following methods in appendix A of this part to determine the sampling location
Use the methods in appendix A of this part to measure pollutant concentration
Also note the following additional information
1. Organics:
Dioxins/Furans
Method 1
Method 23 a
The minimum sampling time must be 4 hours per test run while the municipal waste combustion unit is operating at full load.
2. Metals:
Cadmium
Method 1
Method 29 a
Compliance testing must be performed while the municipal waste combustion unit is operating at full load.
Lead
Method 1
Method 29 a
Compliance testing must be performed while the municipal waste combustion unit is operating at full load.
Mercury
Method 1
Method 29 a
Compliance testing must be performed while the municipal waste combustion unit is operating at full load.
Opacity
Method 9
Method 9
Use Method 9 to determine compliance with opacity limit. 3-hour observation period (thirty 6-minute averages).
Particulate Matter
Method 1
Method 5 a
The minimum sample Matter volume must be 1.0 cubic meters. The probe and filter holder heating systems in the sample train must be set to provide a gas temperature no greater than 160 ±14 °C. The minimum sampling time is 1 hour.
3. Acid Gases: b
Hydrogen Chloride
Method 1
Method 26 or 26A a
Test runs must be at least 1 hour long while the municipal waste combustion unit is operating at full load.
4. Other: b
Fugitive Ash
Not applicable
Method 22 (visible emissions)
The three 1-hour observation period must include periods when the facility transfers fugitive ash from the municipal waste combustion unit to the area where the fugitive ash is stored or loaded into containers or trucks.
a Must simultaneously measure oxygen (or carbon dioxide) using Method 3A or 3B in appendix A of this part.
b Use CEMS to test sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxide, and carbon monoxide. Stack tests are not required except for quality assurance requirements in appendix F of this part.
