OSTI ID:6030336

The manual provides guidance to POTWs on the application and enforcement of the categorical pretreatment standards for the battery manufacturing category. It is estimated that there are 255 battery manufacturing plants in the United States. Of the 255 identified battery manufacturing plants, 22 are direct dischargers, 150 are indirect dischargers, and 83 plants do not discharge wastewater. The manual is divided into 5 parts: (1) Introduction; (2) Battery Manufacturing Categorical Standards (subcategorization of cadmium; calcium; lead; leclanche; lithium; magnesium; zinc); (3) Treatment Technologies (end-of-pipe; in-process control technologies); (4) Requirements of the General Pretreatment Regulations (monitoring; reporting; recordkeeping); (5) Application of Battery Manufacturing Categorical Pretreatment Standards. There are three appendices: Appendix A = Glossary of Terms; Appendix B = PSES and PSNS For Battery Manufacturing Subcategories; and Appendix C = List of EPA and State Pretreatment Coordinators.
