DEVELOPMENT INFORMATION REQUEST I. Instructions This information request is to be completed for operations that comprise the brick and structural clay products manufacturing source category at your plant. The brick and structural clay products source category includes any facility that manufactures brick and structural clay products, including structural brick, structural clay tile, clay sewer pipe, clay flue liners, adobe brick, and other structural clay products. We are requesting information regarding each compound identified as a hazardous air pollutant (HAP) that is used in or emitted by any operations, including fugitive emission sources, occurring from the brick and structural clay products manufacturing source category at your facility. Fill out this information request as completely as possible from existing information. At a minimum, provide (1) information on the 

### re p sence of HA.P emissions and (2) HAP emission estimates based on previously obtained test data or on engineering calculations provided there is a basis for such calculations. No additional monitoring or emission testing is required by your company to respond to this request. If you have any questions regarding this request, please contact Mr. Bill Neuffer. For your convenience, we have provided in Attachment A additional information on the scope and purpose of this survey. Respondents should read this material before attempting to complete the survey.

# SIII. Plant Operations ^ ~ ;7 J 1 1 A. Complete Table 1 for the most recent calendar year (unless the respondent can justify selection of an alternate base year) for all processes at your plant that are covered by the brick and structural clay products manufacturing source category. For each type of process (i.e., process line), provide a process flow diagram that includes all sources of air emissions (e.g., stack emissions, process fugitive emissions, and area fugitive emissions [including fugitive dust emissions]). Also include all activities that generate HAP emissions, including the storage, transfer, handling, and processing of the materials, and wastewater and solid waste handling. Indicate all feedstocks, products, and emissions that contain compounds that are listed in Table 2, below. Use the same terminology/codes in identifying unit operations and emissions points in this figure as you will use in completing Table 3, below. B. List the products, coproducts, and by-products identified in the process flow diagram and indicate for each how much is produced annually. q7 ) 1 O Z, Z 2& 57ANA4RD SRKK ffwiVA4t '?1l71 ° 356.365, 169 ne.,.sds = 178. 183 4ons = 89.091 fon6 par 91tA/ (Z KIWS ) IV. HAP's--Usage and Emissions A. Complete Table 2 for each emission point identified in the process flow diagram(s) developed for Part IlI.A., above. For each HAP listed on the table, indicate the likelihood, using the codes defined in Table 2, that the HAP is emitted from a given emission point within the source category. Identify the appropriate emission points using the same terminology/codes you used in completing the process flow diagram(s) in Part III.A, above. B. Using copies of Tables 3A and 3B, complete the table for each process and emission point identified in Part III, with the following exceptions. For those emission points from units with Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) Part B permits, it is not necessary to complete Table 3 for wastewater and solid waste handling operations; X

D. For calculations based on emission factors, material balances, or enaineering principles. submit a step-by-step description of the calculations, including assumptions used, and a brief rationale for the validity of the calculation method used. (See guidance documents listed in Attachment A, Section IV). If test reports are listed as the basis for emissions estimates or capture system and control device efficiencies, provide a brief summary of the relevant tests. Include information such as the purpose of the test, when it was conducted, what test methods were used, and information on the process operation during the test. It is not necessary to submit copies of actual testreports at this time although EPA may request additional documentation on a plantspecific basis in the future. V. Factors That Affect HAP Emission Reductions Completion of this Section V is optional. If you choose to respond, clearly distinguish between pollution reduction and source reduction measures. Pollution reduction measures alter the physical, chemical, or biological characteristics or the volume of a HAP through a process or activity which itself is not integral to and necessary to produce a product or provide a service. The use of "add-on" devices to capture and control (recover or destroy) HAP emissions are considered pollution reduction measures. In contrast, source reduction measures reduce the amount of any HAP prior to recycling, treatment, or disposal. Source reduction measures include equipment or technology modifications, process or procedure modifications, reformulation or redesign of products, substitution of raw materials, and improvements in housekeeping, maintenance, training, or inventory control. A. For each unit operation for which pollution reduction or source reduction measures have resulted in a decrease in HAP emissions since 1987, provide the n I 

## ~ following information.

1. Name of unit operation: 2. Type of control or description of process change: B. If recovery or recycling of feedstocks is used, quantify the effect of the program (e.g., estimated annual purchase of feedstock in the absence of recovery/recycling compared to actual annual purchase):



# 75



### C. Are you aware of any alternative processes (feedstock substitutions or eliminations) or control devices that could result in fewer impacts between environmental media 

# ~ . (water, air, and land) or reduced total release to all environmental media (e.g., reduced

wastewater or solid waste)? Discuss whether these processes could be adapted to the brick and structural clay products manufacturing source category and any experience you have with them.
VI. Miscellaneous A. If any control or process change described in Part V was instituted as a result of new source review requirements pursuant to 40 CFR 51.160, Subpart I, Review of New Sources and Modifications, provide the date at which the lowest achievable emission rate (LABR) came into effect: B. Describe any factors not addressed in the above questions that might serve to 

# I distinguish your facility from others in this source category for purposes of developing

a separate source category or subcategory and MACT standards.

,Z/NOTES

Raw Material Preparation Notes : At points 9A and 9B on the flow diagram, we add manganese dioxide to our raw material if we are making certain types of brick. The MSDS is attached. We have no data supporting a release of manganese from this operation. At our Sand Preparation and Sand Application points (8, 14A, 14B) we use several bagged kaolins and clays that we mix with various silica based sands. We have no data supporting a release of HAPs from these operations. Material Processing and Forming Notes : We had our raw materials tested for releases of Hydrogen Fluoride in our Plant 2 Coal Fired Kilns. The results are attached. It shows that there is a release of HF in our kilns based on the dried concentrations when compared to the fired concentrations. We also have had one of our coal fired kilns stack tested for Hydrogen Fluoride releases. The result was as follows : 2.19 pounds of HF per hour were released while processing 11.3 tons of material. This equates to 0.1938 pounds of HF released per ton of material processed.

Complete Table 2 for each emission point identified in the process flow diagram(s) developed for Part III.A., above. For each HAP listed on the table, indicate the likelihood, using the codes defined in Table 2, that the HAP is emitted from a given emission point within the source category. Identify the appropriate emission points using the same terminology/codes you used in completing the process flow diagram(s) in Part III.A, above. B. Using copies of Tables 3A and 3B, complete the table for each process and emission point identified in Part III, with the following exceptions. For those emission points from units with Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) Part B permits, it is not necessary to complete Table 3 for wastewater and solid waste handling operations; 2. Sources with no air pollution capture or control systems will only complete columns 1-3, 8, and 10 of Table 3-A; and Provide HAP data only for those HAP's identified with code "A" in Table 2, above. C. Complete Table 4 for any air pollution capture or control equipment identified in Table 3, above.

D. For calculations based on emission factors, material balances, or engineering principles, submit a step-by-step description of the calculations, including assumptions used. and a brief rationale for the validity of the calculation method used. (See guidance documents listed in Attachment A, Section IV). If test reports are listed as the basis for emissions estimates or capture system and control device efficiencies, provide a brief summary of the relevant tests. Include information such as the purpose of the test, when it was conducted, what test methods were used, and information on the process operation during the test. It is not necessary to submit copies of actual testreports at this time although EPA may request additional documentation on a plantspecific basis in the future. V. Factors That Affect HAP Emission Reductions Completion of this Section V is optional. If you choose to respond, clearly distinguish between pollution reduction and source reduction measures. Pollution reduction measures alter the physical, chemical, or biological characteristics or the volume of a HAP through a process or activity which itself is not integral to and necessary to produce a product or provide a service. The use of "add-on" devices to capture and control (recover or destroy) HAP emissions are considered pollution reduction measures. In contrast, source reduction measures reduce the amount of any HAP prior to recycling, treatment, or disposal. Source reduction measures include equipment or technology modifications, process or procedure modifications, reformulation or redesign of products, substitution of raw materials, and improvements in housekeeping, maintenance, training, or inventory control. A. For each unit operation for which pollution reduction or source reduction
, A measures have resulted in a decrease in HAP emissions since 1987, provide the

following information. Name of unit operation: 2. Type of control or description of process change:


# ~ B. If recovery or recycling of feedstocks is used, quantify the effect of the program (e.g.,

estimated annual purchase of feedstock in the absence of recovery/recycling compared to actual annual purchase):



## ~~

# I j\ C. Are you aware of any alternative processes (feedstock substitutions or eliminations) or 

# ~ control devices that could result in fewer impacts between environmental media

(water, air, and land) or reduced total release to all environmental media (e.g., reduced wastewater or solid waste)? Discuss whether these processes could be adapted to the brick and structural clay products manufacturing source category and any experience you have with them.
VI. Miscellaneous A. If any control or process change described in Part V was instituted as a result of new 1 source review requirements pursuant to 40 CFR 51.160, Subpart I, Review of New

Sources and Modifications, provide the date at which the lowest achievable emission rate (LAER) came into effect: B. Describe any factors not addressed in the above questions that might serve to 

# ~ distinguish your facility from others in this source category for purposes of developing

a separate source category or subcategory and MACT standards.

### NOTES

Raw Material Preparation Notes : At points 6A and 6B on the flow diagram, we add manganese dioxide to our raw material if we are making certain types of brick. The MSDS is attached. We have no data supporting a release of manganese from this operation. At our Sand Preparation and Sand Application points (7, 12A, 12B) we use several bagged kaolins and clays that we mix with various silica based sands. We have no data supporting a release of HAPs from these operations. Material Processing and Forming Notes : We had our raw materials tested for releases of Hydrogen Fluoride in our Plant 4 Gas Fired Kilns. The results are attached. It shows that there is a release of HF in our kilns based on the dried concentrations when compared to the fired concentrations. We also have had our gas fired kilns stack tested for Hydrogen Fluoride releases. The results are as follows : 4.84 # HF / HR while processing 11.3 tons of material = 0.4283 #HF/Ton Material 4.95 # HF / HR while processing 11.3 tons of material = 0.4381 #HF/Ton Material 5.5 # HF / HR while processing 11.3 tons of material = 0.4867 #HF/Ton Material

Eyes: Symptoms consist of chills and fever and come on a few hours after.large exposures. Harium oxide dust is considered to be a potential agent for dermal and nasal irritation. Clacium oxide, when in direct contact with tissues Skin: can cause burns and severe irritation.
Respiratory System Chrornc: Excessive and prolonged inhalatiori of manganese (generally over 2 years exposure) can cause damage to the central nervous system. The pathology resembles Parkinson's Disease. Also, workers routinely exposed to high concen- -trations of manganese dust show an unusually high incidence of respiratory disease.

### A/'~~M. Plant Operations

A. Complete Table 1 for the most recent calendar year (unless the respondent can justify selection of an alternate base year) for all processes at your plant that are covered by the brick and structural clay products manufacturing source category. For each type of process (i.e., process line), provide a process flow diagram that includes all sources of air emissions (e.g., stack emissions, process fugitive emissions, and area fugitive emissions [including fugitive dust emissions]). Also include all activities that generate HAP emissions, including the storage, transfer, handling, and processing of the materials, and wastewater and solid waste handling. Indicate all feedstocks, products, and emissions that contain compounds that are listed in Table 2, below. Use the same terminology/codes in identifying unit operations and emissions points in this figure as you will use in completing Table 3, below. B. List the products, coproducts, and by-products identified in the process flow diagram and indicate for each how much is produced annually.

## ~ 3 1V. HAP's--Usage and Emissions A. Complete Table 2 for each emission point identified in the process flow diagram(s) developed for Part III.A., above. For each HAP listed on the table, indicate the likelihood, using the codes defined in Table 2, that the HAP is emitted from a given emission point within the source category. Identify the appropriate emission points using the same terminology/codes you used in completing the process flow diagram(s) in Part III.A, above. B. Using copies of Tables 3A and 3B, complete the table for each process and emission point identified in Part III, with the following exceptions. For those emission points from units with Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) Part B permits, it is not necessary to complete Table 3 for wastewater and solid waste handling operations; 2. Sources with no air pollution capture or control systems will only complete columns 1-3, 8, and 10 of Table 3-A; and 3. Provide HAP data only for those HAP's identified with code "A" in Table 2, above. C. Complete Table 4 for any air pollution capture or control equipment identified in Table 3, above.

D. For calculations based on emission factors, material balances, or engineering principles, submit a step-by-step description of the calculations, including assumptions used, and a brief rationale for the validity of the calculation method used. (See guidance documents listed in Attachment A, Section IV). If test reports are listed as the basis for emissions estimates or capture system and control device efficiencies, provide a brief summary of the relevant tests. Include information such as the purpose of the test, when it was conducted, what test methods were used, and information on the process operation during the test. It is not riecessary to submit copies of actual testreports at this time although EPA may request additional documentation on a plantspecific basis in the future. V. Factors That Affect HAP Emission Reductions Completion of this Section V is optional. If you choose to respond, clearly distinguish between pollution reduction and source reduction measures. Pollution reduction measures alter the physical, chemical, or biological characteristics or the volume of a HAP through a process or activity which itself is not integral to and necessary to produce a product or provide a service. The use of "add-on" devices to capture and control (recover or destroy) HAP emissions are considered pollution reduction measures. In contrast, source reduction measures reduce the amount of any HAP prior to recycling, treatment, or disposal. Source reduction measures include equipment or technology modifications, process or procedure modifications, reformulation or redesign of products, substitution of raw materials, and improvements in housekeeping, maintenance, training, or inventory control. A. For each unit operation for which pollution reduction or source reduction measures have resulted in a decrease in HAP emissions since 1987, provide the following information. 1. Name of unit operation: 2. Type of control or description of process change: B. If recovery or recycling of feedstocks is used, quantify the effect of the program (e.g., NI1 

## ~ estimated annual purchase of feedstock in the absence of recovery/recycling compared

to actual annual purchase):

~~ 7i

## m

C. Are you aware of any alternative processes (feedstock substitutions or eliminations) or ~ control devices that could result in fewer impacts between environmental media

~ } (water, air, and land) or reduced total release to all environmental media (e.g., reduced ~ T wastewater or solid waste)? Discuss whether these processes could be adapted to the

brick and structural clay products manufacturing source category and any experience you have with them.
VI. Miscellaneous A. If any control or process change described in Part V was instituted as a result of new source review requirements pursuant to 40 CFR 51.160, Subpart I, Review of New Sources and Modifications, provide the date at which the lowest achievable emission rate (LAER) came into effect: B. Describe any factors not addressed in the above questions that might serve to 1. ~ distinguish your facility from others in this source category for purposes of developing

a separate source category or subcategory and MACT standards.

OMWNOTES

Raw Material Preuaration Notes : At points 6A and 6B on the flow diagram, we add manganese dioxide to our raw material if we are making certain types of brick. The MSDS is attached. We have no data supporting a release of manganese from this operation. At our Sand /Mud Application points (11 A and 11 B) we use several bagged kaolins and clays that we mix with various silica based sands. We have no data supporting a release of HAPs at these operations: Material Processing and Forming Notes : We had our raw materials tested for releases of Hydrogen Fluoride in our Plant 9 Gas Fired Kilns. The results are attached. It shows that there is a release of HF in our kilns. We also have had two of our gas fired kilns stack tested for Hydrogen Fluoride releases. The results were as follows : Kiln 1: 4.15 #HF/HR while processing 7.7 tons of ma.terial per hour = 0.5390 #HF per ton of raw material processed. Kiln 4: 4.39 #HF/HIt while processing 8.8 tons of material per hour = 0.4989 #HF per ton of raw material processed.

### ical Data Boiling Point: NA Specific Gravity (H 2 O=1): 5.0 Vapor Pressure (mm/Hg): NA Melting Point: 535° C Vapor Density (Air-1): NA Evaporation Rate (Butyl Acetate=l): NA Solubility in Water: insoluble Appearance and Odor: black to brownish black, no odor 

### Fire and Explosion Hazard Data Flash Point: Not combustible Flammable Limits: LEL NA UEL NA Extinguishing Media: Foam, CO 2 , dry chemical or water. Special Fire Fighting Procedures: In the event of fire, wear full protective clothing and NIOSH-approved self-contained breathing apparatus with full face piece operated in the pressure demand or other positive pressure mode. Unusual Fire and explosion hazards: Not combustible, but substance is a strong oxidizer and its heat of reaction with reducing agents or combustibles may cause ignition. Increases the flammability of any combustible substance. 

### Reactivity Data Stability: Stable under ordinary conditions of use and storage. Conditions to avoid: Do not heat or grind in the presence of easily oxidizabie substarces c. - organic mat`er. Incompatibility (materials to avoid): Easily oxidizat!e substances, sulfur, s

~ ;ndes, phosphides, hydrophosphides, chlorates, peroxides, aluminum powder. rubidium acetylide, potassiurin azide, chlorine trifluoride. Reacts wi;,-; hydrochloric acid to form corrosive chlcrine gas. Hazardous Decomposition or Byproducts: Upon heating it decomposes to form manganese sesquioxide and oxygen which facilitates combustion. Hazardous Polvmerization: Will not occur. 

### Health Hazard Data Route of Entry: INHALATION: Ntay irritate the respiratory tract. May increase the incidence of upper respiratory infections (pr:eumonia). Prolonged exposure to silica dust may result in silicosis, a fibrotic lung disease. SKIN: May cause irritation. INGESTION: May cause abdominal pain and nausea. Manganese dioxide dust is poorly absorbed through the gut.
