Proposed amendment to final best demonstrated available technology (BDAT) background document for organophosphorus wastes (K036 nonwastewaters). Volume 14. Draft report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6907410
This amendment presents a discussion of incineration as an additional applicable and demonstrated technology for treating disulfoton, the proposed constituent of concern in K036 nonwaste waters, EPA's determination of incineration as the best demonstrated available technology for K036 nonwaste waters, and EPA's rationale for transferring treatment performance data from incineration of K037 to K036 nonwaste water streams. More specifically, Section 2 of the document amends Section 3 of the 'Final BDAT Background Document for Organophosphorus Wastes' by adding incineration as an applicable and demonstrated technology for treating nonwaste water forms of K036. Section 3 of the document amends Section 4 of the Final BDAT Background Document for Organophosphorus Wastes by adding treatment performance data for incineration of K037 to develop treatment standards for K036 nonwaste waters. Section 4 amends Section 5.1, identifying incineration as BDAT for K036 nonwaste waters. Finally, Section 6 amends Section 7, proposing numerical standards for disulfoton based on treatment performance data for incineration transferred from K037 to K036 nonwaste waters.
