In addition, largely due to the advent of modern technological enhancements, plant operators are turning with renewed interest to a basic technology that is over a century old, yet incomparably efficient: wet electrostatic precipitators, or (WESPs). ...
Under the Clean Air Act, most companies with the potential to release more than 10 tons of a single VOC or HAP during a one-year period, or 25 tons of multiple compounds, must install either a pollution-control device or the maximum achievable control technology (MACT). Many of the pollution control devices currently used to abate these emissions also emit ...
” In addition to tightening requirements, the Clean Air Act amendments also significantly strengthen penalties for non-compliance, up to and including personal liability for violations .Maximum achievable control technology (MACT) is required by the Clean Air Act amendments. Producers and users will be required to meet MACT standards ...
Type K assists industrial boiler owners to comply with the EPA’s new boiler MACT rules. The U.S Environmental Protection Agency has published the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Major Sources: Industrial, Commercial, and Institutional Boilers and Process Heaters; Final Rule Jan. 31, 2012 in the Federal Register. ...
Major sources are those that emit 10 tons a year or more of one hazardous air pollutant or 25 tons or more per year of any combination of hazardous air pollutants, and they are subject to maximum available control technology (MACT) standards. Area sources are those that emit less than 10 tons per year of any one air toxic and less than 25 tons per year of any ...

EPA officially published revisions to the Maximum Achievable Control Technology (MACT) and New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) Refinery Air Rules (i.e., 40 CFR Part 60 Subparts J and Ja, and 40 CFR Part 63 Subparts CC and UUU, Refinery MACT 1 and Refinery MACT 2, respectively) today, June 30, 2014. ...
EPA) requested a remand without vacatur of the set of rules commonly referred to as the Boiler Maximum Achievable Control Technology (MACT) rules. U.S. EPA has also requested a remand of the Commercial and Industrial Solid Waste Incineration (CISWI) rules. ...
The company is considered a “major” source (those that have the potential to emit 10 tons/year or more of a listed pollutant or 25 tons/year or more of a combination of pollutants) and therefore requires the use of MACT (Most Achievable Control Technology) control efficiencies. As defined as a major source, the permit requirement was initially to ...
With so much talk of boilers and heaters since the 4 Rules were published in early 2013, most facilities are focused on developing an understanding and strategy to comply with the Maximum Achievable Control Technology (MACT) standards for Boilers (commonly referred to as Boiler MACT). However, one of the 4 Rules is the Commercial and Industrial ...
