ABSTRACT

Effective August 21, 1991 the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) adopted the Boiler and Industrial Furnace (BIF) rules which govern cement kiln operations burning hazardous waste fuel and set limits on cement kiln emissions of metals, HCL/chlorine and organics.

Dioxin testing was required to address the concerns of the USEPA arising from the review of stack test data from municipal waste combustion units. Dioxin emissions tests were developed and designed to meet EPA criteria under worst-case conditions and performed at 15 cement plants. Upon compilation of this data, an evaluation was performed for a correlation between HCl and Cl₂ emissions and dioxin emissions. When no correlation was found, additional data analysis revealed a trend between the kiln exit temperature and dioxin emissions.

Additional data was gathered from selected cement plants and the available individual run data was plotted against temperatures at APCD device inlets. The dioxin emissions show a decrease in concentration as a function of decreasing temperature. This corresponds with EPA's concerns about dioxin emissions increasing as a function of stack or APCD temperatures.

In conclusion, temperature seems to be a primary factor for dioxin formation. If temperatures can be controlled below 400^oF, there may be a reduction in dioxin emissions from cement kilns whether or not they burn hazardous waste fuels.
 

INTRODUCTION

Effective August 21, 1991 the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) adopted the Boiler and Industrial Furnace (BIF) rules which govern cement kiln operations burning hazardous waste as fuel. BIF set limits on cement kiln emissions of metals, chloride and organics. Testing was required by August 21, 1992, and if, during the course of testing, the air pollution control device (APCD) in use at the cement kiln recorded temperatures between 450^oF and 750^oF, then dioxin emission testing was necessary. The dioxin testing was mandated due to a lack of data available from cement kilns for these emissions and USEPA concerns arising in the review of stack test data from municipal waste combustion units.

Approximately fifteen dioxin emissions tests were performed at cement plants. Many of the emissions tests were developed to meet EPA criteria and were designed to be under worst case conditions. A worst case scenario would be defined as maximum waste fuel being burned with the highest allowable chlorine content in addition to the maximum temperature that would be encountered in the APCD. Table 1 lists the results of the emissions tests.

Upon compilation of this data, an evaluation was performed for a correlation between HCl and Cl₂ emissions and dioxin emissions. Wide variation in the HCl and Cl₂ emissions was observed. No correlation could be obtained between chlorine and dioxin emissions. However, a trend was observed between the kiln exit temperature and dioxin emissions. Higher temperatures were associated with the higher dioxin emissions.

The database was sorted by descending temperatures (Table 2.) and corrected to 7% oxygen. Subsequent to the sort, the data was plotted (Plot 1). The dioxin emissions appear as a function of stack exit temperature. The dioxin emissions show a corresponding decrease in concentration as a function of temperature when it drops below approximately 585^oF with significant dioxin emissions occurring at temperatures in the 600^oF to 750^oF range. This corresponds with EPA's concerns about dioxin emissions increasing as a function of stack or APCD temperature increase. Subsequent to this finding, we chose one plant in the U.S. that had eleven tests performed under varying conditions yielding results exhibiting a range of temperatures vs. dioxin emissions. Table 3 outlines the results for that particular test facility. The corresponding dioxin emissions are presented for those emissions tests, during which a similar type of curve is observed (Plot 2). Higher dioxin emissions occur during the higher temperatures (greater than 450^oF and increasing to 495^oF) with a significant decrease in dioxin emissions occurring below 420^oF.
 

CONCLUSION

In conclusion, temperature seems to be a contributing factor to dioxin formation. The lower temperature in the APCD may result in lower dioxin emissions being formed with subsequent lower emissions exiting the stack. However, it was noted that hydrocarbon content, alkali content and chlorine loading may also be contributing factors in addition to temperature and need to be investigated further. If temperatures can be controlled below 450^oF, there may be a reduction in dioxin emissions both from cement kilns burning and not burning hazardous waste fuels.
