Draft Test Report: A Performance Test on a Spray Dryer, Fabric Filter, and Wet Scrubber System

摘要

The EPA's Office of Solid Waste (OSW) is currently developing regulations to control emissions of products of incomplete combustion, particulate matter and toxic metals from hazardous waste incinerators. Emissions data to support these regulations was collected and testing was conducted on a toxic substances control waste incinerator between 4/25-27/89. EPA's objectives were to collect particulate and metals removal efficiency and emissions data for the combined spray dryer and baghouse system and the total air pollution control system; characterize the fate of waste feed metals through the incineration and air pollution control systems; and evaluate the potential use of a surrogate metal 'soup' as a means of assessing control efficiencies and establishing allowable waste feed concentrations for toxic metals.
