HEPA Filter Study

Dear Mr. Harris, 

foster 

Amec Foster Wheeler was contracted by Veolia Environmental Services to complete a high-level 

study to identify the impact and benefits of installing High Efficiency Particulate Arresting (HEPA} 

filters in the gas cleaning trains of three existing incinerators at their TWI facility in Sauget, IL. 

The three incinerators consist of two fixed hearth incinerators (Units 2 and 3} and one rotary kiln 

incinerator (Unit 4 }. Each incineration unit has its own gas cleaning train that consist of the 

same unit operations. The current gas cleaning systems include a partial quench I spray dryer 

with lime injection for acid gas control, followed by a baghouse with powdered activated carbon 

(PAC} injection for control of particulate and dioxin I furans, followed by an induced draft (I D) fan 

and a stack. 

Stack gas flowrates, temperatures, and moisture content were provided by Veolia ES as follows: 

• Stack temperature on all three units is normally in the 350 - 375 degree F range 

• Stack moisture on all three units generally varies between 30% to 40 % 

• Stack flow during CPTs on units 2 and 3 5,000 to 6,000 dscfm (about 15,000 acfm} 

• Stack flow on unit 4 (rotary kiln} was 15,000 to 16,000 dscfm (about 40,000 acfm}. 

Summaries of particulate matter (PM}, low volatile metal (LVM}, and semi-volatile metal (SVM} 

emissions from Comprehensive Performance Tests (CPT} were also provided by Veolia ES and 

are attached to this letter. As shown in Attachment 1, during the last two CPTs (in 2009 and 

2013} the unit average emissions for these pollutants are generally from 5 to 10 times lower than 

the current Hazardous Waste Combustor (HWC} Standards. This indicates a superior level of 

control with no further treatment required. Also attached in Attachment 1 are the results of a 

one-time particle size distribution study that was done in 2005 on incinerator #4 (rotary kiln}. 

However, to determine the impacts and benefits of adding HEPA filters to each of the units 

downstream of the existing bag houses, Amec Foster Wheeler contacted suppliers of HEPA

filters and fans to obtain budgetary pricing, and sizing information. These equipment quotations 

are included in Attachment 2 to this letter for your reference. The following equipment would be 

required: 

• Incinerator 2: A bank of 16 HEPA filters is required to handle the gas flowrate. Each 

HEPA Filter has a face size of 2ft. x 2ft. and a depth of 11.5 inches. This bank would be 

8 feet wide by 8 feet tall. A second bank of filters would be required to keep the system 

in operation while the first bank is being replaced, once their useful life is reached. Due 

to the 400 F flue gas temperature, the HEPA filters have to be designed for high 

temperature application. A booster fan would also be required to provide the motive 

force for the additional pressure drop through the HEPA filters, and additional dueling. 

The fan would have a static pressure requirement of approximately 3.5 inches of water 

column when the filters are clean, and approximately 7.5 inches of water column when 

the filters are dirty and need replacing. This results in a fan that is 31 inches in diameter 

and requires 24 brake horsepower. 

• Incinerator 3: Since this incinerator is almost identical to Incinerator 2, the same 

equipment is assumed to be required for this unit. 

• Incinerator 4: Due to its larger capacity, three banks of 16 HEPA filters, as described 

above, would be required to handle the gas flowrate from Incinerator 4. A fourth bank 

would be required to keep the system in operation while one of the other banks of filters 

is being replaced, once their useful life is reached. This application would also require 

high temperature HEPA filters due to the 400 F flue gas temperature. The booster fan 

for this unit would have approximately the same static pressure requirement as 

incinerators 2 and 3, but since the gas flow is larger, the fan would be 48 inches in 

diameter and requires 64 brake horsepower. 

Blake Beckstrom and Dean Bybee of Amec Foster Wheeler visited the plant site on September 

2, 2015, to determine where the new HEPA filters, fans and additional dueling could be installed 

and what ancillary equipment might be required. Unfortunately, all three incineration units are 

very tightly configured, especially in the area from the bag houses to the existing ID fans and 

stacks, as shown in the photos in Attachment 3. Installation of HEPA filters and fans of this 

size, with the required ductwork, would be difficult and would most probably require relocating 

existing buildings and/or equipment to allow for adequate access for maintenance of the new 

and existing equipment. . 

Amec Foster Wheeler used the equipment supplier's budgetary prices and applied appropriate 

installation factors to estimate an installed cost for the new equipment for each incinerator. The 

installation factors cover the cost of items such as foundations, electrical, structures, platforms, 

instrumentation and controls, valves, and dueling that are necessary for installing, operating, and 

maintaining the equipment. This cost estimate is shown in the spreadsheet in Attachment 4. 

The estimated installed costs are $642,000 each for incinerators 2 and 3, and $1,177,000 for 

incinerator 4. This is a total of $2,460,000 for all three units. 

Due to the difficulties of the installation, Amec Foster Wheeler did not identify possible locations 

for the new equipment and the installed cost estimate does not include any cost of relocating 

existing facilities 

Additionally, there will be operating costs associated with the new equipment. It is estimated 

that the HEPA filters will have a 1-year service life and will therefore need to be replaced once 

per year in each incineration train. The replacement filters will cost $95,000/year. This cost

does not include the labor costs of replacement. At 90% on-stream factor and $0.08 per kw-hr 

for electricity, the additional cost of running the three new booster fans is estimated to be 

$71 ,000/year. 

HEPA filters have demonstrated removal efficiencies of 99.97% on 0.30 micrometer diameter 

particles as shown in the vendor information from Flanders. Based on the particle size 

distribution study available, the HEPA filters would be expected to reduce the total number of 

particles emitted by only 28.6% when the filters are operating properly. However, since the 

incinerators are already far exceeding the emission limits for particulate matter, as well as low 

volatile and semi-volatile metals, by factors of 5 to 10, the actual benefit of removing this 

additional small increment of particulate matter is not significant. 

Additionally, increasing the total pressure drop through the incineration system makes it more 

difficult to control the small draft pressure required at the front of the incinerator. If the draft 

pressure is too negative, the complete combustion of the waste is compromised by excessive 

leakage of air into the incinerator. But if the pressure goes positive, partially com busted, hot gas 

(that has not been scrubbed) can be emitted at ground levels where it is much more hazardous 

to personnel at the plant and results in emission of multiple pollutants at levels above HWC 

standards. 

HEPA filters have been used on combustors that feed mixed or radioactive waste material due 

to the need of eliminating radioactive particulate to extremely low levels. However, Amec Foster 

Wheeler is not aware of any commercial industrial hazardous waste incinerators that employ the 

use of HEPA filters. Therefore they are not proven in this application and are not industry 

accepted standard. As shown by the operating data for these units, HEPA filters are not 

required as a control method to meet HWC standards. 

It has been a pleasure working with you and your staff on this study. If you have any questions 

or would like to discuss these results in more detail, please feel free to contact me. For 

information, the professional resumes of the author and Don Leavitt, who also contributed to this 

work, are included in Attachment 5.

EQUIPMENT QUOTATIONS 

HEPA Filters- Engineered Air Systems 

ID Fan - Robinson Fans 
General 

Flanders manufactures metal-frame separator-style 

HEPA filters lor applications with high-temperature 

requirements up to 1 ,000°F (540°C) for exhaust 

air only and 500°F (260°C) for supply air. Hightemperature filters are available with either a gasket 

or fluid seal. Filters with Blu-Jel® Fluid Seal have a 

maximum service temperature of 390°F (1 99°C) 

HEPA Filters 

Each HEPA filter has a m1n1mum efficiency of 

99.97% on 0.30 micrometer size particles when 

tested at rated capacity on a Q-107 Penetrometer. 

Each filter is challenged with an approved nearly 

monodispersed oil aerosol of 0.30 micrometer size 

and by measuring the upstream and downstream 

concentration of these particles with a light scattering photometer, the penetration can be determined 

and the efficiency can be calculated. 

Scan Tested HEPA Filters 

Each Scan Tested HEPA filter has a m1n1mum 

efficiency of 99.99% on 0.30 micrometer particles. 

Scan testing is in accordance with Section 6.2 of 

IEST-RP-CC034.1, HEPA and ULPA Filters Leak 

Tests. In the scan test, the filter is challenged with 

a high concentration of an approved oil aerosol or 

PSL (Polystyrene Latex Spheres). The media pack 

and pack-to-frame seal is scanned using a photometer or particle counter to insure that there are no 

leaks greater than .01% of the upstream concentration at 100 fpm face velocity. Scan testing is only 

available for the 500°F model. 

Sealant Types 

Two types of sealants for high-temperature HEPA 

filters are offered. 

Silicone Sealant 

This is a high temperature (RTV) silastic-sealant 

silicone compound rated for continuous service 

up to 500°F(260°C). NOTE: This high-temperature 

sealant is not UL 586 approved. 

Glass Pack Sealant For Exhaust Air Only 

The glass pack seal is rated for continuous service 

up to 1 ,000°F(540°C) in exhaust air applications 

only. It is a mat of submicron glass fibers that creates a seal when compressed between the filter 

pack and filter frame. The glass packing is not an 

adhesive seal but a mechanical seal that functions 

much as the glass fiber medium of the filter itself. 

NOTE: Due to the possibility that the glass pack 

may shed glass fibers, the glass pack sealant 

should be used for exhaust systems only.

C-3 and C-4 housings may be used with Alpha 95 

filters (95% DOP efficiency) and with Alpha Cell and 

Alpha 2000 filters (99.97% and 99.99% DOP efficiency). Standard housings accept nominal 12 inch deep 

filters and 16" and 18" carbon adsorbers in a variety 

of face sizes. They can be arranged from one filter 

high and one filter wide to tour filters high and eight 

filters wide. If large housings are not practical to rig 

into place, smaller units may be stacked in the field. 

Options 

• Choice of frame construction materials 

• Insulation 

• Lifting lugs 

• Transitions 

• Static pressure ports 

• DOP test ports

Construction 

Housings are 24 inches deep in the direction of air 

flow, (26 inches deep if it has a 4" prefilter section.) 

and are constructed in your choice of frame materials. 

Flanges are furnished for duct connections on the air 

entering and air leaving sides. All joints are intermittently welded and finished to remove all burrs and 

sharp edges. The joints are then sealed with silicone 

enabling the housing to withstand an internal pressure 

of +1- 3.0 ln. w.g. 

The filter locking mechanism lor the fluid gel sealmodel housing is a 300 Series stainless steel handoperated arm that moves the filter's gel-filled channel 

on to the internal housing knife edge sealing flange. 

The same mechanism also pulls the filter away from 

the sealing flange when changing filters. The filter 

locking mechanism for gasket seal-model housing Is 

a 300 Series stainless steel and brass device. The 

mechanism presses the gasketed filter against the 

housing's sealing surface by means of a mechanical 

bolt and thrust assembly that is manually operated 

using a standard 3/4 inch socket or wrench. 

Standard 2 Inch or 4 inch prefilter tracks will accommodate pleated panel filters with efficiency ranges 

up to 50% per the ASH RAE Standard 52.2 dust spot 

test methods. Access doors have 0.5 in. thick closed 

cell neoprene gaskets around the inside perimeter. 

Double pin door hinges which pivot, allow the door 

to make level contact with the gasket when closed. 

Stainless steel wing nuts secure the doors.

Sound Power level ratings shown are decibels referred to 10-12 Watt and obtained in accordance with AMCA 

Standard 300. Related air performance ratings per AMCA Standard 210. PWL for each band and DBA are calculated 

per AMCA Standard 301. Levels shown do not include motor or other auxiliary equipment. 

Operating conditions other than the above stated values can result in significantly different sound levels. 

Data is for use by a system acoustical design engineer for evaluation of the fan singularity and within a system. 

Because of the infinite variations in system arrangements and the many factors which affect sound pressure levels, it 

is the designers responsibility to properly apply this data based on his knowledge of the system. Some guidelines for 

use of this data are for "Near Field" computer data to apply to dueled inlet and outlet installations, any opening in the 

duct must be a minimum of 100 feet remote the fan. Openings within this range are assumed to emit a sound 

pressure equal to the sound power level. This also applies to untreated inlet and outlet expansion joints. Note that for 

dueled inlet/outlet the ductwork thickness and density must equal that of the fan housing to achieve the sound levels 

noted. 

Near Field- A Hemispherical space where sound pressure waves from one radiating surface tend to interfere with 

waves generated by other surfaces. Near Field boundry, distance from radiating surface, is related to the wavelength 

of the lowest frequency and overall size of source. 

Free Field- Area beyond near field, with no obstructions, where sound pressure levels decay 6 dB for each doubling 

of distance from near field.

Sound Power level ratings shown are decibels referred to 10-12 Watt and obtained in accordance with AMCA 

Standard 300. Related air performance ratings per AMCA Standard 210. PWL for each band and DBA are calculated 

per AMCA Standard 301. Levels shown do not include motor or other auxiliary equipment. 

Operating conditions other than the above stated values can result in significantly different sound levels. 

Data is for use by a system acoustical design engineer for evaluation of the fan singularity and within a system. 

Because of the infinite variations in system arrangements and the many factors which affect sound pressure levels, it 

is the designers responsibility to properly apply this data based on his knowledge of the system. Some guidelines for 

use of this data are for "Near Field" computer data to apply to dueled inlet and outlet installations, any opening in the 

duct must be a minimum of 100 feet remote the fan. Openings within this range are assumed to emit a sound 

pressure equal to the sound power level. This also applies to untreated inlet and outlet expansion joints. Note that for 

dueled inlet/outlet the ductwork thickness and density must equal that of the fan housing to achieve the sound levels 

noted. 

Near Field- A Hemispherical space where sound pressure waves from one radiating surface tend to interfere with 

waves generated by other surfaces. Near Field boundry, distance from radiating surface, is related to the wavelength 

of the lowest frequency and overall size of source. 

Free Field- Area beyond near field, with no obstructions, where sound pressure levels decay 6 dB for each doubling 

of distance from near field.
