Manufacturing NESHAP 

I. Introduction 

In accordance with section 112 of the Clean Air Act (CAA), the U.S. Environmental 

Protection Agency (EPA) established national emission standards for hazardous air pollutants 

(NESHAP) on May 16, 2003, for the brick and structural clay products (BSCP) manufacturing 

industry. The NESHAP regulated emissions of hydrogen fluoride (HF), hydrogen chloride 

(HCl), and particulate matter (PM)—a surrogate for hazardous air pollutant (HAP) metals—from 

tunnel kilns located at BSCP facilities. On March 13, 2007, the D.C. Circuit Court vacated the 

emission standards for BSCP manufacturing due to issues associated with the methodology used 

to determine the minimum regulatory “floors” for new and existing units.1 Therefore, on 

December 18, 2014, the EPA proposed new standards for BSCP manufacturing, including 

standards for HF, HCl, chlorine (Cl2), mercury (Hg), and non-Hg HAP metals (or PM surrogate). 

The EPA provided a 90-day public comment period following proposal of the BSCP 

Manufacturing NESHAP, during which all affected parties were given the opportunity to 

comment on the proposed rule. The EPA has considered the comments received and, as 

appropriate, incorporated them into the final rule. 

The final standards include health-based standards for acid gases (HF, HCl, and Cl2) and 

maximum achievable control technology (MACT) numeric emission limits for Hg and non-Hg 

HAP metals (or PM surrogate). In developing the standards, the EPA also considered “beyondthe-floor” options for Hg and non-Hg HAP metals (or PM surrogate). The development of these 

standards and options are documented in two memoranda, Risk Assessment to Determine a 

Health-Based Emission Limitation for Acid Gases for the Brick and Structural Clay Products 

Manufacturing Source Category (Morris et al, 2014) and Final Maximum Achievable Control 

Technology (MACT) Floor Analysis for Brick and Structural Clay Products (Raymond and 

Sroka, 2015). The purpose of this memorandum is to present the methodology for estimating the 

costs, emission reductions, and secondary impacts associated with these standards/options for the 

BSCP Manufacturing source category. A background discussion of the types of costs, emission

reductions, and secondary impacts being estimated is provided in the memorandum Methodology 

and Assumptions Used to Estimate the Model Costs and Impacts of BSCP Air Pollution Control 

Devices for the Final Rule (Holloway, 2015). 

Section II of this memorandum shows the nationwide baseline emissions for the BSCP 

industry. Section III describes the development of the cost estimates for facilities that elect to 

reduce emissions and become reclassified as synthetic area sources rather than major sources. 

Section IV describes the assessment of what air pollution control devices (APCD) will be needed 

for major source facilities to meet the health-based standards. Section V describes the analysis 

of what APCD will be needed for tunnel kiln stacks to meet the MACT standards and presents 

the nationwide costs, emission reductions, and secondary impacts associated with meeting all the 

standards. Note that for the final rulemaking, the nationwide costs, emission reductions, and 

secondary impacts associated with the beyond-the-floor options for non-Hg HAP metals and Hg 

were not recalculated from proposal, as the cost effectiveness of these options would not be 

significantly lower than at proposal. For the calculation of the nationwide costs, emission 

reductions, and secondary impacts associated with the beyond-the-floor options for non-Hg HAP 

metals and Hg at proposal, see Development of Cost and Emission Reduction Impacts for the 

BSCP NESHAP (Sroka, 2014). 

II. Baseline Emissions 

Uncontrolled emission factors, model kiln production rates, and model kiln operating 

hours were developed as described in the memorandum Methodology and Assumptions Used to 

Estimate the Model Costs and Impacts of BSCP Air Pollution Control Devices for the Final Rule

(Holloway, 2015). The memorandum also documents control efficiencies and emissions 

reductions for new/retrofit APCD installations. The efficiencies and emissions for existing 

(baseline) APCD, including dry sorbent injection followed by a fabric filter (DIFF), dry lime 

scrubber and fabric filter (DLS/FF), dry limestone adsorber (DLA), and spray dryer/electrostatic 

precipitator (SD/ESP), were based on all the available test data (see the memorandum Test Data 

Used in BSCP Final Rule (Raymond, 2015)) in the industry (including major and synthetic area 

sources). Table 1 shows the control efficiencies of baseline DIFF, DLS/FF, and DLA for HF, 

HCl, Cl2, PM, and sulfur dioxide (SO2). Table 2 shows the annual baseline emission estimates in 

tons per year (tpy) for small and large APCD.

a There are no existing controls for mercury (Hg), so each small kiln stack is estimated to emit a baseline of 

0.00192 tpy of Hg and each large kiln stack is estimated to emit a baseline of 0.00411 tpy of Hg. 

The inventory of BSCP kilns and facilities, including the APCD for each kiln stack, is 

presented in the memorandum Updated BSCP Inventory Database and Documentation for Brick 

and Structural Clay Products Manufacturing Final Rule (Holloway and Sroka, 2015). To 

develop the nationwide baseline emission estimates, each kiln stack in this inventory was 

assigned the appropriate baseline emissions from Table 2 based on the size and type of APCD on 

the stack. The model APCD size is based on the design capacity(ies) of the kiln(s) routed to that 

emission point/APCD. For example, two small kilns vented together with a total design capacity 

of less than 10 tph would be controlled with a small APCD, whereas two small kilns vented 

together that have a total design capacity of more than 10 tph would be controlled with a large 

APCD. 

Table 3 summarizes the number of BSCP kiln stacks at major sources with each type of 

APCD and the total nationwide baseline emissions.

III. Estimate of Cost to Facilities to Become Synthetic Area Sources 

Given the large number of small entities in the BSCP industry, it is anticipated that some 

owners and operators will explore the possibility of reducing emissions below the thresholds 

defining a major source of HAP emissions (potential to emit [PTE] 10 tpy of a single HAP or 

25 tpy of all HAP combined) and becoming reclassified as a synthetic area source so that their 

sources will not be subject to the BSCP Manufacturing NESHAP. If an owner or operator 

estimates that the cost to become a synthetic area source is less than the compliance costs for the 

BSCP Manufacturing NESHAP, it is expected that the owner or operator will elect to become a 

synthetic area source. The methodology behind this analysis is described in this section; 

Appendix A shows the detailed calculations for each BSCP tunnel kiln and facility. 

To compare the cost to become a synthetic area source to the BSCP Manufacturing 

NESHAP compliance costs, the cost for each facility to become a synthetic area source was 

estimated based on the facility’s current emission estimates and whether installation of a DLA 

would reduce the acid gas emissions below major source thresholds. Design capacities are 

available for each tunnel kiln at each major source facility in the BSCP industry (Holloway and 

Sroka, 2015), and test data are available for some of those kilns (Raymond, 2015). The design 

capacities, site-specific test data (where available; emission factors were used if test data were 

not available), and model control device parameters were used to estimate potential emissions 

from each kiln before and after control. 

For simplicity, the analysis was limited to HF, HCl, and Cl2, since those are the 

predominant HAP emitted from BSCP kilns by mass. If HF, HCl, and/or Cl2 test data were 

available for a kiln, the emission factor calculated from the test in units of pounds of emissions 

per ton of bricks (lb/ton) was used to estimate potential emissions. If not, the average lb/ton 
5 

emission factor for the existing control device (calculated based on the available BSCP test data 

for those pollutants) was used. 

A code was assigned to each kiln indicating the source of the data. Since the Cl2 data set 

was limited, the main focus was the source of HF and HCl data. If both HF and HCl emissions 

were based on test data, the code of “2” was assigned; if the emissions for one pollutant were 

based on test data but the emissions for the other were based on the average emission factor, a 

code of “1” was assigned, and if no test data were available for that kiln, a code of “0” was 

assigned. The HF, HCl, and Cl2 emissions for each kiln were then calculated in tpy based on the 

kiln design capacity, assuming 8,760 hours of operation per year (in order to estimate the 

maximum PTE), and then summed per kiln and then per facility. 

The current status (i.e., major or synthetic area source) was estimated based on the 

following assumptions: 

 If both HF and HCl test data were available for all kilns at the facility (code of 2) and 

the total facility estimated PTE was less than 90 percent of each of the major source 

thresholds, the facility was considered synthetic area. 

 If a mix of test data and emission factors were used for the facility (code of 1) and the 

total facility estimated PTE was less than 75 percent of each of the major source 

thresholds, the facility was considered synthetic area. 

 If no test data for any kilns at the facility were available (code of 0) and the total 

facility estimated PTE was less than 60 percent of each of the major source 

thresholds, the facility was considered synthetic area. 

It should be noted that to the EPA’s knowledge, all of the facilities in the analysis are 

currently classified as major sources. The sources estimated to be synthetic area sources in this 

analysis are facilities with emissions data suggesting that they could apply for synthetic area 

status with their permitting authority without needing to add APCD or reduce the kiln production 

rates. Based on the analysis, 15 of the 84 current major sources have low enough PTE that they 

could become synthetic area sources with minimal cost (i.e., conducting emissions testing to 

confirm their emissions and submitting paperwork to their permitting authority for a formal 

change in classification). The estimated costs for these facilities to become synthetic area 

sources are shown in Appendix A and Section V of this memorandum, but costs to meet the 

HBEL and the non-Hg HAP metals and Hg limits are not estimated. 

The next step was to assign an action to be taken and estimate “controlled” emissions. If 

the kiln was already controlled, or if the facility was already considered a potential synthetic area 

source based on current emissions, the assigned action was “None”; otherwise it was “Install 

DLA.” (For the purposes of this analysis, it was assumed that the cost to retrofit currentlycontrolled tunnel kilns would not be less than the cost to comply with the BSCP Manufacturing 

NESHAP.) A few uncontrolled kilns were manually adjusted to “None” for facilities with 

multiple kilns that could become synthetic area sources without controlling all kilns. See 

Appendix A for these designations. 

Controlled emissions for kilns with an action of “Install DLA” were estimated as a 

reduction from the individual kiln PTE for HF, HCl, and Cl2 based on the DLA control 
6 

efficiencies presented in Table 1. If the action was “None,” controlled emissions were estimated 

to be equivalent to the PTE (as calculated above). The “controlled” emissions for each kiln at 

each facility were then summed. 

The next step was to determine what the major/area source status would be after DLA 

were installed (where possible), based on the following assumptions: 

 If no DLA would be installed, both HF and HCl test data were available for all kilns 

at the facility, and the total facility estimated PTE was less than 90 percent of the 

major source thresholds, the facility was considered synthetic area without additional 

control. 

 If no DLA would be installed, a mix of test data and emission factors were used for 

the facility, and the total facility estimated PTE was less than 75 percent of the major 

source thresholds, the facility was considered synthetic area without additional 

control. 

 If no DLA would be installed, no test data were available for any kilns at the facility, 

and the total facility estimated PTE was less than 60 percent of the major source 

thresholds, the facility was considered synthetic area without additional control. 

 If at least one DLA would be installed, both HF and HCl test data were available for 

all kilns at the facility, and the total facility estimated PTE was less than 80 percent of 

the major source thresholds, the facility was considered synthetic area after control. 

 If at least one DLA would be installed, a mix of test data and emission factors were 

used for the facility, and the total facility estimated PTE was less than 65 percent of 

the major source thresholds, the facility was considered synthetic area after control. 

 If at least one DLA would be installed, no test data were available for any kilns at the 

facility, and the total facility estimated PTE was less than 50 percent of the major 

source thresholds, the facility was considered synthetic area after control. 

After determining major/area source status, the capital and annual costs of installing a 

DLA were estimated, if doing so was estimated to enable the facility to become synthetic area, 

and added to the estimated emissions testing costs (Holloway, 2015). The DLA costs were 

estimated using model costs developed based on cost and parameter information from BSCP 

industry responses to the 2008 section 114 survey (Holloway, 2015). The costs for each kiln 

were then summed for each facility considered synthetic area after control. If the facility would 

still be major even with a DLA installed on each uncontrolled kiln, the costs were left blank. If 

the potential action was “None” (i.e., the kiln was already controlled or the facility was already 

expected to be a synthetic area source), the facility costs were set equal to the estimated 

emissions testing costs (Holloway, 2015). 

IV. Cost and Emission Reduction Estimates for Meeting Health-Based Standards 

For the acid gases HF, HCl, and Cl2, a health-based emission limit (HBEL) was 

developed for acid gases under CAA section 112(d)(4). The rationale behind the standard is 

discussed in the preamble to the final BSCP Manufacturing NESHAP. The development of the 

facility-level HBEL, 250 tons per year (tpy) of HCl-equivalent (57 pounds per hour (lb/hr) of 

HCl-equivalent), is documented in the memorandum Risk Assessment to Determine a HealthBased Emission Limitation for Acid Gases for the Brick and Structural Clay Products 
7 

Manufacturing Source Category (Morris et al, 2014). The methodology for estimating the 

impacts of meeting this HBEL is described in this section; Appendix B shows the detailed 

calculations for each BSCP tunnel kiln and facility. 

The equivalency of HCl with HF and Cl2 is based on the chronic Reference 

Concentration (RfC) values for each of the acid gases. The RfC for HCl is 20 micrograms per 

cubic meter (μg/m3

), the RfC for HF is 14 μg/m3, and the RfC for Cl2 is 0.15 μg/m3 (Morris et al, 

2014). Therefore, the following equation can be used to calculate the HCl-equivalent emissions 

for an individual kiln:

 RfCHCl = reference concentration for HCl, 20 μg/m3

 RfCHF = reference concentration for HF, 14 μg/m3

 RfCCl2 = reference concentration for chlorine, 0.15 μg/m3

Design capacities are available for each tunnel kiln at each major source facility in the 

BSCP industry, and permitted capacities are available for some tunnel kilns (Holloway and 

Sroka, 2015). Test data are available for some of the kilns in the BSCP industry (Raymond, 

2015). If test data were not available for all acid gas emissions (i.e., HF, HCl, and Cl2), emission 

factors were used to estimate emissions. This information was used in the equation above to 

calculate an HCl-equivalent value for each kiln. The HCl-equivalent values were summed for 

each kiln at a facility and then compared to the HBEL. If a facility did not meet the HBEL, the 

type of control needed was determined based on factors such as the current kiln APCD, the 

number of kilns at the facility, and how much the HCl-equivalent emissions exceeded the HBEL. 

(Note that the final costs and emission reductions for each kiln were not calculated until the 

impacts for meeting the PM/non-Hg HAP metals and Hg limits were assessed as described in 

Section V of this memorandum.) 

As shown in Appendix B, all but one BSCP facility could meet the HBEL with current 

control configurations. The facility not meeting the limit is Belden Brick Company’s facility in 

Sugarcreek, Ohio, with an HCl-equivalent estimate of 120 lb/hr from a total of 10 tunnel kilns, 

some of which are vented together through a common stack or APCD. Most of the HClequivalent emissions (about 71 percent) are generated by the three kilns controlled by a SD/ESP 

at the part of the facility known as Plant #8. Removing the SD/ESP and retrofitting the stack 
8 

with a DIFF is expected to reduce HCl-equivalent emissions well below the HBEL, even without 

reducing emissions from any of the other seven kilns at this facility. 

V. Cost and Emission Reduction Estimates for Meeting Hg and non-Hg HAP Metals 

Standards 

There are 168 tunnel kilns with 147 stacks at facilities currently classified as major 

sources in the BSCP industry. There are 23 tunnel kilns with 19 stacks at the 15 facilities 

identified in Section III of this memorandum that could become synthetic area sources with 

minimal cost, leaving 145 tunnel kilns with 128 stacks potentially impacted by the Hg and nonHg HAP metals standards. A summary of these kilns by size and APCD is shown in Table 4; the 

stack counts for these kilns were used for all remaining analyses in this memorandum.

The BSCP Manufacturing NESHAP includes MACT standards for Hg and for non-Hg 

HAP metals (with PM as a surrogate) (see the memorandum Final Maximum Achievable Control 

Technology (MACT) Floor Analysis for Brick and Structural Clay Products (Raymond and 

Sroka, 2015) for additional information on these standards). As noted previously, test data were 

available for some kilns in the industry (including major and synthetic area sources). Data on 

PM emissions were available for about 40 percent of the kilns, while Hg and non-Hg HAP 

metals data were only available for about 10 percent or less of the kilns (Raymond, 2015). 

Therefore, rather than evaluating the impacts of the standards on a kiln-by-kiln basis, as was 

done for the HBEL, several assumptions were needed to evaluate the impacts on the whole 

industry. This analysis was completed in a series of four steps, described in the remainder of this 

section. 

Step 1: Compare Test Data to Emission Limits 

The first step was to compare the data available with the emission limits to get an 

estimate of the percentage of tunnel kilns in the industry that could meet the limits with current 

APCD configurations. Table 5 shows the percentages for the PM and Hg lb/ton and 

concentration emission limits by kiln size and the most common types of APCD (for PM).

a Value in parentheses indicates availability of valid concentration data with oxygen concentration reported, if different 

from the number of kiln stacks with valid mass emissions data. PM data were also available for one stack 

controlled by a SD/ESP (small kilns) and three large kilns with wet scrubbers. Those kilns are not shown in the 

counts for PM emissions data because the SD/ESP is expected to be replaced with a DIFF (see Section IV of this 

memorandum) and all three wet scrubbers are located at synthetic area sources, so the results for those APCD are 

not needed for purposes of estimating impacts on major source facilities. In addition, the analysis does not assume 

that wet scrubbers will be installed or retrofitted to meet the PM standards. These kilns are included in the counts 

for Hg data; because none of the APCD currently in use in the BSCP industry target Hg reductions, the ability to 

meet the Hg standards is not expected to be affected by type of current APCD.

b ND = no test data available for that pollutant, kiln size, and APCD combination. 

Of the large kilns with both PM and Hg data, three of the 18 kiln stacks meet at least one 

of the PM and one of the Hg limits. For small kilns, Hg data are only available for three kilns 

vented together and controlled with a SD/ESP; this device also meets the PM concentration limit 

for small kilns. 

Step 2: Develop Preliminary Estimate of Number of APCD Needed 

The percentages from Table 5 were applied to the kiln stack counts in Table 4 to 

determine the number of kiln stacks estimated to be able to meet the MACT floor limits. From 

these estimates, preliminary estimates of the number of APCD needed to be installed were 

developed using the following criteria: 

 If the kiln is expected to meet both a PM and a Hg limit, no additional APCD is 

needed. 

 If an uncontrolled kiln or a kiln with a DLA can meet a Hg limit but none of the PM 

limits, a FF will be needed. 

 If an uncontrolled kiln or a kiln with a DLA cannot meet either of the Hg limits, a FF 

with activated carbon injection (ACI) will be needed regardless of whether the kiln 

can meet a PM limit, as the FF will be needed for the capture of the activated carbon 

injected into the gas stream. 

 If a kiln with a DIFF or DLS/FF cannot meet either of the Hg limits, ACI will be 

added to the existing control device. 
10 

Table 6 shows the preliminary estimate of the number of APCD needed based only on 

these criteria and the percentages in Table 5, rounded to the nearest whole number. If multiple 

kilns were vented together, only one APCD was assigned to the stack. As noted in Step 3, there 

are two other factors to take into account to determine the final estimate of the number of APCD 

needed and the impacts on the major source kilns.

b The SD/ESP is expected to be replaced with a DIFF (see Section IV of this memorandum). 

Step 3: Refine the Estimate of Number of APCD Needed 

The next step in determining the number of APCD required to be installed included 

considering the impact of the lb/hr limits for Hg and total non-Hg HAP metals. The total non-Hg 

HAP metals limit is expected to provide additional flexibility to tunnel kiln owners and 

operators, particularly for small tunnel kilns. The non-Hg HAP metal emissions values for each 

kiln are shown in Appendix C and were estimated as follows: 

 Where total non-Hg HAP metals lb/hr data were available, the values were compiled 

for each kiln. 

 If PM data were available but non-Hg HAP metals data were not, the total non-Hg 

HAP metal lb/hr value was calculated using the average ratio of metals to PM 

emissions in BSCP stack tests (Raymond, 2015). 

 If neither PM nor non-Hg HAP metals data were available, the PM emissions were 

estimated using an emission factor based on the type of APCD (Holloway, 2015), and 

the total non-Hg HAP metal lb/hr value was calculated using the average ratio of 

metals to PM emissions in BSCP stack tests (Raymond, 2015). 

It is also expected that the lb/hr limit for Hg will provide additional flexibility to tunnel 

kiln owners and operators, again particularly for small tunnel kilns. However, the set of 

available data for Hg is much more limited than the data set for PM, making it more difficult to 

develop emission factors that can be applied to all kilns that were not tested. To evaluate

whether a separate evaluation of the lb/hr data would be helpful in this analysis, the data for the 

16 kiln stacks that were tested were averaged together to calculate an emission factor of 

6.25 E-05 lb/ton Hg.2

 For the kilns without Hg data, this emission factor was multiplied by the 

kiln design capacity and compared to the emission limits. The following trends were observed: 

 The smallest tunnel kiln in the large tunnel kiln subcategory, a kiln with 10 tph 

capacity, was estimated to have emissions of 6.25 E-04 lb/hr using this approach, 

which does not meet the emission limit for large tunnel kilns. Emissions for larger 

kilns in the subcategory would be higher, suggesting that none of the large kilns can 

meet the lb/hr limit. However, the test data show that eight of the 18 large kiln stacks 

(44 percent) of the large kilns can meet the lb/hr limit, and seven of those eight also 

meet either the lb/ton or concentration limits. Therefore, the results using the 

emission factor approach are not consistent with the test data for large kilns regarding 

the number of kiln stacks that can meet the limit. 

 The largest tunnel kiln in the small tunnel kiln subcategory, a kiln with a 9.9 tph 

capacity, was estimated to have emissions of 6.19 E-04 lb/hr using this approach, 

which does meet the emission limit for small tunnel kilns. Emissions for smaller 

kilns in the subcategory would be lower, suggesting that all of the small kilns can 

meet the lb/hr limit. However, given that there are only test data for one small kiln 

stack, there is significant uncertainty in this analysis. 

Based on the above results, the lb/hr Hg data were not used to evaluate the number of 

sources that can meet the final standards. Instead, it was expected that most kilns that could 

meet the lb/hr Hg limit could already meet either the lb/ton limit or the concentration limit (i.e., 

the inclusion of a lb/hr Hg limit did not drastically change the number of kiln stacks expected to 

meet the Hg standards). See the remainder of this section for more information. 

The other factor to be taken into account in determining the number of APCD required to 

be installed is the number of kilns located at facilities that could elect to become synthetic area 

sources. The cost for each facility to do so was estimated as described in Section III of this 

memorandum. However, as noted previously in this section, because test data are not available 

for every tunnel kiln in the industry, compliance costs were not estimated for each kiln and 

facility. Therefore, the cost to become a synthetic area source could not be compared directly to 

the cost of compliance. For example, while the analysis estimates that the Ragland Clay 

Products facility in Ragland, Alabama, could become a synthetic area source at an annual cost of 

$362,156 (see Appendix A), test data are not available to show the facility’s exact level of 

emissions. If performance testing of the tunnel kiln at this facility shows that the kiln already 

meets the limits, then installing a control device to become a synthetic area source will not be 

necessary. 

Therefore, the preliminary APCD estimates in Table 6, the total non-Hg HAP metals 

lb/hr limit, and the ability of certain facilities to become synthetic area were considered together 

 

2

 Note that separate emission factors were not calculated for each APCD because none of the APCD tested are 

designed to reduce Hg. In addition, nearly all of the Hg data are from kilns controlled with a DIFF, with one test on 

an uncontrolled kiln and none on a kiln controlled with a DLA. 
12 

on a more general basis. The following assumptions were used to refine the preliminary APCD 

estimates: 

 For large kilns with a DIFF or DLS/FF, the three kiln stacks not meeting either the 

PM lb/ton or concentration limits are located at Belden Brick Company’s facility in 

Sugarcreek, OH, (two kilns) and Hanson Brick’s facility in Elgin, TX. Both PM and 

non-Hg HAP metals data are available for these kilns, and they show that although 

these kilns cannot meet the PM limits, they will meet the total non-Hg HAP metals 

lb/hr limit. Therefore, it is not expected that the existing DIFF will have to be retrofit 

with a new DIFF. 

 For large kilns with a DLA, it was assumed that one of the kiln stacks not meeting the 

Hg lb/ton or concentration limits will meet the Hg lb/hr limit. It was also assumed 

that this kiln stack is one of the 12 stacks that can meet one of the PM limits, so no FF 

will be needed. 

 Based on the results of the analysis described in Section III of this memorandum, a 

total of 11 large uncontrolled kiln stacks are located at facilities that could become 

synthetic area sources with installation of a DLA on those stacks. For large 

uncontrolled kilns, it was assumed that owners or operators of about three-fourths of 

these kiln stacks, or eight total stacks, will elect to install a DLA. To be conservative, 

it was estimated that most of the remaining kiln stacks will not be able to meet any of 

the Hg limits. 

 It was expected that all small uncontrolled kilns not meeting the PM lb/ton or 

concentration limits will be able to meet the total non-Hg HAP metals lb/hr limit, 

based on the emissions estimates presented in Appendix C. 

In addition, the MACT floors for Hg were revised from proposal to account for 

variability in the Hg content of raw material sampling data provided by numerous facilities 

(Miller, 2015; Raymond and Sroka, 2015). As noted above, the only available Hg emissions 

data reported for a small kiln was from Belden Bricks, Plant #8 in Sugarcreek, Ohio. This 

facility also provided raw material sampling results. Because most of the Hg emissions are the 

result of Hg in the raw materials, it was assumed that the emissions for the facilities that reported 

raw material sampling data could be approximated by using these ratios. The analysis was 

conducted as follows: 

Lb/ton:

The maximum Hg content reported in a raw material sample was 208 ppb, reported at the 

Boral Bricks facility in Gleason, Tennessee. Using the ratios calculated for Belden Sugarcreek 

Plant #8, the maximum potential emissions at Boral Gleason could be calculated as follows: 

Lb/ton:

These emissions levels suggest that the worst case facility (i.e., Boral Gleason) would not 

meet the Hg lb/ton limit for small kilns but would meet the Hg concentration limit for small 

kilns. Therefore, it was assumed that all small kilns would be able to meet the Hg concentration 

limit with no additional controls. 

The final estimates of APCD counts are shown in Table 7.

Step 4: Calculate the Nationwide Costs, Emission Reductions, and Secondary Impacts 

The final step in estimating nationwide costs and impacts was to apply model APCD 

costs, emission reductions, and secondary impacts to the APCD counts shown in Table 7. As 

noted in Section III of this memorandum, the model APCD size is based on the design 

capacity(ies) of the kiln(s) routed to that emission point/APCD. For example, two small kilns 
14 

vented together with a total design capacity of less than 10 tph would be controlled with a small 

APCD, whereas two small kilns vented together that have a total design capacity of more than 10 

tph would be controlled with a large APCD. 

As noted in Section IV of this memorandum, Belden Brick Company’s facility in 

Sugarcreek, Ohio, was identified as not meeting the HBEL with the current APCD at the kiln, so 

the emissions at the kilns were evaluated individually. The three kilns routed to the SD/ESP at 

Sugarcreek are small kilns, but the sum of the total kiln capacity vented to the SD/ESP is greater 

than 10 tph. Therefore, for purposes of this analysis, the DIFF installed to replace the SD/ESP 

will be a large DIFF. 

Table 8 shows the summary of nationwide costs for BSCP kilns, Table 9 shows the 

summary of nationwide emission reductions for BSCP kilns at major sources, and Table 10 

shows the summary of nationwide secondary impacts for BSCP kilns at major sources.

a Unit costs from Holloway (2015), except for the DLA capital and annual costs. The DLA capital and annual costs 

shown in this table were increased to account for the fact that if a DLA is installed for a facility to become a 

synthetic area source, it will need to be installed earlier than an APCD installed to comply with the BSCP 

Manufacturing NESHAP. To compare the equivalent net present values for all APCD for purposes of this analysis, 

a DLA was expected to be installed 6 months earlier than other APCD, increasing the capital cost by about 3 

percent (calculated assuming 7 percent interest over half a year, or 1.070.5). The total annual cost increased due to 

the increase in the annualized capital cost.
