Abstract

This report summarizes performance against goals and objectives for a field demonstration of commercial scale treatment of K048-KO52 sludge and non-listed sludges using a centrifuge and thermal dryer to meet solid fuels criteria and risk based cleanup levels for an impoundment closure at a confidential client`s New Jersey Refinery. The project requires that three surface impoundments be closed in accordance with the conditions of the Refinery`s New Jersey Pollution Discharge Elimination System-Discharge to Groundwater (NJPDES-DGW) permit. Two of the three impoundments are RCRA regulated units. The third impoundment contains a nonhazardous waste. Risk-based, cleanup levels to be achieved for closure of all 3 impoundments are presented. The risk-based cleanup levels implemented at this site were developed to ensure that all treated materials (sludge solids, soil) returned to the impoundments during backfilling/closure will not adversely impact human health or the environment.

Proposed amendment to best demonstrated available technology (BDAT) background document for wastes from the petroleum refining industry K048, K049, K050, K051, K052. Volume 18

Technical Report Berlow, J; Vorbach, J

This amendment presents the K048 and K051 solvent extraction data used to develop the proposed treatment standards for nonwaste waters; presents the K048 incinerator scrubber water data used to develop the proposed treatment standards for waste waters; and provides EPA's rationale and technical support for developing proposed revised treatment standards for regulated organic constituents and adding treatment standards for xylene and naphthalene in K048-K052 nonwaste waters and for selecting cyanide as a proposed regulated constituent in wastewater forms of K048-K052. The document amends sections in the Final BDAT Background Document for K048-K052 by presenting additional waste characterization data, treatment performancemore »« less
Amendment to the best demonstrated available technology (BDAT) background document for wastes from the petroleum refining industry K048, K049, K050, K051, K052. Final report

Technical Report Kinch, R; Vorbach, J

The background document provides the Agency's technical support and rationale for the development of treatment standards for the constituents to be regulated for the above-mentioned wastes. The amendment presents the K048-K052 solvent extraction and incineration data used to develop the treatment standards for nonwastewaters; presents the K048 incinerator scrubber water data used to develop the treatment standards for cyanide in wastewaters; and provides EPA's rationale and technical support for various treatment standards.
Best Demonstrated Available Technology (BDAT) background document for K048, K049, K050, K051, K052. Final report

Technical Report

This background document provides the Agency's rationale and technical support for selecting the constituents to be regulated in K048, K049, K050, K051, and K052 wastes and for developing treatment standards for those regulated constituents. The document also provides waste-characterization information that serves as a basis for determining whether variances may be warranted for a particular waste having the same waste code as one of the five wastes above, but with characteristics such that the particular waste is more difficult to treat than the waste for which the treatment standards have been established.
Amendments to the Best Demonstrated Available Technology (BDAT) background documents for wastes for which wastewater treatment standards were determined based on concentrations in incinerator scrubber water: K015, k016, k018, k019, k020, k023, k024, k028, k030, k048, k049, k050, k051, k052, k087, k093, k094, u028, u069, u088, u102, u107, and u190.

Method and apparatus for treating oil-water-solids sludges and refinery waste streams

Patent Skinner, J

This patent describes a system for treating sludge such as refinery waste streams, oil storage tank sludges and marine tanker ballast water to distill low boiling temperature liquids, oxidize heavy hydrocarbon substances and oxidize heavy metal solids contained in the sludge for reduction of the sludge to recovered liquids, oxidized hydrocarbons, and oxides of heavy metals which are substantially water insoluble. The system comprises: dryer means for receiving a flow stream of the sludge. The dryer means being operable to conduct the sludge therethrough and to vaporize liquids in the sludge which are boilable at temperatures in the range ofmore »« less
