Code of Maine Rules › 06 - DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION › 096 - DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION - GENERAL › Chapter 126 - CAPTURE EFFICIENCY TEST PROCEDURES › Section 096-126-3 - Applicability

Current through 2024-29, July 17, 2024
A. The requirements of Section 4 shall apply
				to all regulated VOC emitting processes that employ add - on control devices
				subject to Chapter 123, Paper Coating or graphic arts regulation except as
				provided below.
B. If a source
				installs a PTE that meets the specifications in Procedure T, and which directs
				all VOC to a control device, the capture efficiency is assumed to be l00
				percent, and the source is exempted from the requirements described in Section
				4. This exemption does not exempt a source from performance of any control
				device efficiency testing required under these or any other regulations. In
				addition, a source must demonstrate all criteria for a PTE are met during the
				testing for control efficiency.
C.If a source uses a control device designed
				to collect and recover VOC (e.g. carbon adsorber), an explicit measurement of
				capture efficiency is not necessary if the conditions given below are met. The
				overall control of the system can be determined over a 24 - hour period by
				directly comparing the input liquid VOC (L) to the recovered liquid VOC. The
				general procedure for use of such a control device is described in
				40 CFR
				60.433 with the following additional
				restrictions:
(1) The source must be able to
				initially equate solvent usage with solvent recovery on a 24 - hour (daily)
				basis, rather than a 30 - day weighted average as described in
				40 CFR
				60.433. Thereafter, the source must equate
				solvent usage with solvent recovery over another time period as deemed
				acceptable by the Department not to exceed 30 days. This demonstration must be
				done within 72 hours of the required time period over which the demonstration
				is to be done. Any recovery rates as calculated with the above procedure less
				than that needed to comply with the applicable regualtion shall be reported to
				the Department within 7 days.
(2)
				The solvent recovery system (i.e., capture and control system) must be
				dedicated to a single process line (e.g., one process line venting to a carbon
				absorber system), or
(3) If the
				solvent recovery system controls multiple process lines, the source must be
				able to demonstrate that the overall control (i.e., the total recovered solvent
				VOC divided by the sum of liquid VOC input to all process lines venting to the
				control system) meets or exceeds the most stringent standard applicable for any
				process line venting to the control system.
Code of Maine Rules › 06 - DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION › 096 - DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION - GENERAL › Chapter 126 - CAPTURE EFFICIENCY TEST PROCEDURES › Section 096-126-5 - Recordkeeping and Reporting

Current through 2024-29, July 17, 2024
A.All affected
				facilities must maintain a copy of the capture efficiency protocol on file. All
				results of appropriate test methods and capture efficiency protocols must be
				reported to the Department within sixty (60) days of the test date. A copy of
				the results must be maintained on site and must be made available to the
				Department upon written or oral request.
B.If any changes are made to capture or
				control equipment, the source is required to notify the Department of these
				changes and a new test may be required.
A change to the capture or control equipment shall be defined
				  as any modification to or malfunction of the capture system or control system
				  that increases the distance between any emissions collection point and the
				  emissions source that the collection point is serving or that reduces the
				  average face velocity at any emissions collection point ducted to the control
				  device to a value less than 90% of the value measured and recorded during the
				  capture efficiency test. Reduction in the air flow at a collection point that
				  occur because the emission source that the collection point is serving is not
				  being utilized shall not be considered a change requiring Department
				  notification. Measurements of average face velocity shall be done at all
				  collection points whenever any physical changes are made to the capture
				  system.
C. The source must
				notify the Department 30 days prior to performing any capture efficiency and/or
				control efficiency tests.
D. A
				source utilizing a PTE must demonstrate that this enclosure meets the
				requirement given in procedure T for a PTE during any testing of the control
				device.
E. A source utilizing a TTE
				must demonstrate that its TTE meets the requirements given in Procedure T for a
				TTE during testing of their control device. The source must also provide
				documentation that the quality assurance criteria for a TTE have been
				achieved.

				  operator shall maintain records sufficient to demonstrate compliance. The
				  records shall include, at a minimum, the quantity of solvent added to and
				  removed from the solvent cleaning machine, the dates of the addition and
				  removal and shall be maintained for not less than 2 years.
A. If the cleaning machine has a solvent/air
				interface, the owner or operator shall:
(1)
				Maintain a log of solvent additions and deletions for each solvent cleaning
				machine; and
(2) Ensure that
				emissions from each solvent cleaning machine are equal to or less than the
				applicable emission limit presented in Table 2.

Current through 2024-29, July 17, 2024
The owner or operator of a solvent cleaning machine shall
				  maintain a monthly record of the amount of solvent added to the unit and keep
				  such records for a period of two years. In addition, the operator of a solvent
				  cleaning machine subject to the provisions of Sections
				  4 though 6 of this Chapter shall
				  conduct monitoring and record keeping as outlined below. These records shall be
				  maintained for a period of six years.
A. If a freeboard refrigeration device is
				used to comply with these standards, the owner or operator shall use a
				thermometer or thermocouple to measure the temperature at the center of the air
				blanket during the idling mode. Measurements and recordings shall be made
				weekly;
B. If a superheated vapor
				system is used to comply with these standards, the owner or operator shall use
				a thermometer or thermocouple to measure the temperature at the center of the
				superheated solvent vapor zone while the solvent cleaning machine is in the
				idling mode. Measurements and recordings shall be made weekly;
C. If a cover (working-mode, downtime-mode,
				and/or idling-mode cover) is used to comply with these standards, the owner or
				operator shall conduct a visual inspection to determine if the cover is opening
				and closing properly, completely covers the cleaning machine openings when
				closed, and is free of cracks, holes, and other defects. Observations and
				recordings shall be made weekly;
D.
				If dwell is used, the owner or operator shall determine the actual dwell time
				by measuring the period of time that parts are held within the freeboard area
				of the solvent cleaning machine after cleaning. Observations and recordings
				shall be made monthly;
E. The owner
				or operator shall determine the hoist speed by measuring the time it takes for
				the hoist to travel a measured distance. The speed is equal to the distance in
				meters divided by the time in minutes (meters per minute). Measurements and
				recordings shall be made monthly;
F. The owner or operator of a batch vapor or
				in-line solvent cleaning machine complying using reduced room draft, maintained
				by controlling room parameters (i.e., redirecting fans, closing doors and
				windows, etc.), shall conduct monitoring and record the results as follows:
(1) Initially measure the windspeed within 6
				inches above the top of the freeboard area of the solvent cleaning machine in
				accordance with the following:
(a) Determine
				the direction of the wind current by slowly rotating a velometer or similar
				device until the maximum speed is located;
(b) Orient a velometer in the direction of
				the wind current at each of the four corners of the machine;
(c) Record the reading for each corner;
				and
(d) Average the values obtained
				at each corner and record the average wind speed.
