SECTION 219.406 PROVISIONS APPLYING TO HEATSET WEB OFFSET LITHOGRAPHIC PRINTING PRIOR TO MARCH 15, 1996
Section 219.406 Provisions Applying to Heatset Web Offset Lithographic Printing Prior to March 15, 1996
a) Emission Standards and Limitations. No owner or operator of a heatset web offset printing line at a source that meets or exceeds the applicability levels in Section 219.405(a) of this Subpart may cause or allow the operation of such heatset web offset printing line(s) unless the owner or operator meets the requirements in subsections (a)(1) or (a)(2) of this Section and the requirements in subsections (a)(3) and (a)(4) of this Section. The owner or operator shall demonstrate compliance with this Section by using the applicable test methods and procedures specified in Section 219.105(a), (d), and (f) of this Part and by complying with the recordkeeping and reporting requirements specified in subsection (b) of this Section.
1) An afterburner system is installed and operated that reduces 90 percent of the VOM emissions (excluding methane and ethane) from the dryer exhaust; or
2) The fountain solution contains no more than 8 percent, by weight, of VOM and a condensation recovery system is installed and operated that removes at least 75 percent of the non-isopropyl alcohol organic materials from the dryer exhaust; and
3) The control device is equipped with the applicable monitoring equipment specified in Section 219.105(d)(2) of this Part and the monitoring equipment is installed, calibrated, operated and maintained according to manufacturer's specifications at all times when the control device is in use; and
4) The control device is operated at all times when the printing line is in operation.
b) Recordkeeping and Reporting. The VOM content of each fountain solution and ink and the efficiency of each control device shall be determined by the applicable test methods and procedures specified in Section 219.105 of this Part to establish the records required under this subsection.
1) Any owner or operator of a lithographic printing line which is exempted from the limitations of subsection (a) of this Section because of the criteria in 219.405(a) of this Subpart shall comply with the following:
A) By a date consistent with Section 219.106 of this Part, the owner or operator of a heatset web offset lithographic printing line to which subsection (b)(1) of this Section is applicable shall certify to the Agency that the heatset web offset lithographic printing line is exempt under the provisions of Section 219.405(a) of this Subpart. Such certification shall include:
i) A declaration that the heatset web offset lithographic printing line is exempt from the limitations of subsection (a) of this Section because of the criteria in Section 219.405(a) of this Subpart; and
ii) Calculations which demonstrate that total maximum theoretical emissions of VOM from all heatset web offset lithographic printing lines at the source never exceed 90.7 Mg (100 tons) per calendar year before the application of air pollution control equipment. Total maximum theoretical emissions of VOM for a heatset web offset lithographic printing source is the sum of maximum theoretical emissions of VOM from each heatset web offset lithographic printing line at the source. The following equation shall be used to calculate total maximum theoretical emissions of VOM per calendar year in the absence of air pollution control equipment for each heatset web offset lithographic printing line at the source:
|
Ep |
= |
(R x A x B) + (C x D) + 1095 (F x G x H) |
where:
|
Ep |
= |
Total maximum theoretical emissions of VOM from one heatset web offset printing line in units of kg/yr (lb/yr); |
|
A |
= |
Weight of VOM per volume of solids of ink with the highest VOM content as applied each year on the printing line in units of kg/1 (lb/gal) of solids; |
|
B |
= |
Total volume of solids for all inks that can potentially be applied each year on the printing line in units of 1/yr (gal/yr). The instrument or method by which the owner or operator accurately measured or calculated the volume of each ink as applied and the amount that can potentially be applied each year on the printing line shall be described in the certification to the Agency; |
|
C |
= |
Weight of VOM per volume of fountain solution with the highest VOM content as applied each year on the printing line in units of kg/ℓ (lb/gal); |
|
D |
= |
The total volume of fountain solution that can potentially be used each year on the printing line in units of 1/yr (gal/yr). The instrument and/or method by which the owner or operator accurately measured or calculated the volume of each fountain solution used and the amount that can potentially be used each year on the printing line shall be described in the certification to the Agency; |
|
F |
= |
Weight of VOM per volume of material for the cleanup material or solvent with the highest VOM content as used each year on the printing line in units of kg/1 (lb/gal) of such material; |
|
G |
= |
The greatest volume of cleanup material or solvent used in any 8-hour period; and |
|
H |
= |
The highest fraction of cleanup material or solvent which is not recycled or recovered for offsite disposal during any 8-hour period. |
|
R |
= |
The multiplier representing the amount of VOM not retained in the substrate being used. For paper, R = 0.8. For foil, plastic, or other impervious substrates, R = 1.0. |
B) On and after a date consistent with Section 219.106 of this Part, the owner or operator of a heatset web offset lithographic printing line to which subsection (b)(1) of this Section is applicable shall collect and record all of the following information each year for each printing line and maintain the information at the source for a period of three years:
i) The name and identification of each fountain solution and ink as applied on each printing line; and
ii) The VOM content and the volume of each fountain solution and ink as applied each year on each printing line.
C) On and after a date consistent with Section 219.106 of this Part, the owner or operator of a source exempted from the limitations of subsection (a) of this Section because of the criteria in Section 219.405(a) of this Subpart shall notify the Agency of any record showing that total maximum theoretical emissions of VOM from all heatset web offset lithographic printing lines exceed 90.7 Mg (100 tons) in any calendar year in the absence of air pollution control equipment by sending a copy of such record to the Agency within 30 days after the exceedence occurs.
