OSTI ID:5483806
The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) authorizes the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to regulate owners/operators of facilities that treat hazardous waste in incinerators. Pursuant to the legislative mandates specified in RCRA, the EPA has proposed regulations to ensure that hazardous waste incinerators are operated in an environmentally responsible manner. Specifically, the proposed regulations include an operational performance standard, general design and construction requirements, combustion and destruction criteria, waste analysis, trial burns, monitoring and inspections, recordkeeping and reporting, emission control criteria, control of fugitive emissions, and closure. The proposed regulations rely upon the technical advisory information contained in this document - Engineering Handbook for Hazardous Waste Incineration. The proposed regulations provide very little specificity pertaining to actual hazardous waste incineration performance requirements. Permitting official will set a 'standard' for each hazardous waste incineration facility based on the application of the criteria or factors contained in the proposed regulations and this document.
