Part G.  Facility Operations 

42.  	General Questions for Subpart RRR MACT Sources

a.	What type of pretreatment (including, but not limited to air drying,
centrifugal drying, etc.) takes places to get the charge ready for
processing? 

	

b.	Do you track the amount of aluminum produced as well as the amount of
charge? 

	

c.	Could you develop and report your emission rates in terms of amount
of emissions per unit of aluminum produced?  If not, what prevents you
from doing so?

	

d.	How do you ensure that the molten metal in the sidewell furnace
remains above the top of the passage between the sidewell and the hearth
during reactive fluxing?

	

43.	Fluxing for Subpart RRR MACT Sources

a.	What fluxes were used during the representative year used in Part F? 
Please attach MSDS for each flux:  

Flux Identification	Flux Still in Use?

(Yes or No)	Reactive = R 

Non-reactive = N	Mass Used (lbs./yr)	Furnace or In-line Fluxer ID in
which Flux was Used	Purpose 

(e.g., cover, degassing, demagging, etc.)































































	

b.	If you have sidewell (scrapwell) furnaces, did you use reactive flux
in the sidewell and the hearth?  If so, did you test emissions from
both sources?

	

c.	Do you use different types or quantities of flux for different flux
applications?  If so, how do the procedures differ?

	

d.	What are your flux rate operating and monitoring procedures?

	

e.	Do you have any hydrogen fluoride emissions data for Subpart RRR MACT
Sources? If so, please provide the data reports or other supporting data
for the following:

Attachment A.	Definitions for subpart RRR MACT sources

Afterburner means an air pollution control device that uses controlled
flame combustion to convert combustible materials to noncombustible
gases; also known as an incinerator or a thermal oxidizer. 

Aluminum scrap means fragments of aluminum stock removed during
manufacturing (i.e., machining), manufactured aluminum articles or parts
rejected or discarded and useful only as material for reprocessing, and
waste and discarded material made of aluminum.

Aluminum scrap shredder means a unit that crushes, grinds, or breaks
aluminum scrap into a more uniform size prior to processing or charging
to a scrap dryer/delacquering kiln/decoating kiln, or furnace.  A bale
breaker is not an aluminum scrap shredder. 

Clean charge means furnace charge materials, including molten aluminum;
T-bar; sow; ingot; billet; pig; alloying elements; aluminum scrap known
by the owner or operator to be entirely free of paints, coatings, and
lubricants; uncoated/unpainted aluminum chips that have been thermally
dried or treated by a centrifugal cleaner; aluminum scrap dried at 343
°C (650 °F) or higher; aluminum scrap delacquered/ decoated at 482 °C
(900 °F) or higher, and runaround scrap

Cover flux means salt added to the surface of molten aluminum in a group
1 or group 2 furnace, without agitation of the molten aluminum, for the
purpose of preventing oxidation.

Dross-only furnace means a furnace, typically of rotary barrel design,
dedicated to the reclamation of aluminum from dross formed during
melting, holding, fluxing, or alloying operations carried out in other
process units.  Dross and salt flux are the sole feedstocks to this type
of furnace.

Group 1 furnace means a furnace of any design that melts, holds, or
processes aluminum that contains paint, lubricants, coatings, or other
foreign materials with or without reactive fluxing, or processes clean
charge with reactive fluxing.

Group 2 furnace means a furnace of any design that melts, holds, or
processes only clean charge and that performs no fluxing or performs
fluxing using only nonreactive, non-HAP-containing/non-HAP-generating
gases or agents.

In-line fluxer means a device exterior to a furnace, located in a
transfer line from a furnace, used to refine (flux) molten aluminum;
also known as a flux box, degassing box, or demagging box. 

Melting/holding furnace, or melter/holder, means a group 1 furnace that
processes only clean charge, performs melting, holding, and fluxing
functions, and does not transfer molten aluminum to or from another
furnace.

Rotary dross cooler means a water-cooled rotary barrel device that
accelerates cooling of dross.  

Runaround scrap means scrap materials generated on-site by aluminum
casting, extruding, rolling, scalping, forging, forming/stamping,
cutting, and trimming operations and that do not contain paint or solid
coatings. Uncoated/unpainted aluminum chips generated by turning,
boring, milling, and similar machining operations may be clean charge if
they have been thermally dried or treated by a centrifugal cleaner, but
are not considered to be runaround scrap.

Scrap dryer/delacquering kiln/decoating kiln means a unit used primarily
to remove various organic contaminants such as oil, paint, lacquer, ink,
plastic, and/or rubber from aluminum scrap (including used beverage
containers) prior to melting.

Secondary aluminum processing unit (SAPU):  an existing SAPU means all
existing group 1 furnaces and all existing in-line fluxers within a
secondary aluminum production facility.  Each existing group 1 furnace
or existing in-line fluxer is considered an emission unit within a
secondary aluminum processing unit.  A new SAPU means any combination of
group 1 furnaces and in-line fluxers which are simultaneously
constructed after February 11, 1999.  Each of the group 1 furnaces or
in-line fluxers within a new SAPU is considered an emission unit within
that secondary aluminum processing unit.

Sidewell means an open well adjacent to the hearth of a furnace with
connecting arches between the hearth and the open well through which
molten aluminum is circulated between the hearth, where heat is applied
by burners, and the open well, which is used for charging scrap and
solid flux or salt to the furnace, injecting fluxing agents, and
skimming dross.

Sweat furnace means a furnace used exclusively to reclaim aluminum from
scrap that contains substantial quantities of iron by using heat to
separate the low-melting point aluminum from the scrap while the higher
melting-point iron remains in solid form.

Thermal chip dryer means a device that uses heat to evaporate water,
oil, or oil/water mixtures from unpainted/uncoated aluminum chips.
