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 side well furnace remains above the top of the passage between the side well and the hearth during reactive fluxing (e.g. record in a logbook based on visual observation by operator, level indicator connected to data recorder, float connected to door interlock, etc.)?

Part I. Startup and Shutdown for Subpart RRR MACT Sources


45. For each startup and shutdown event for which you did not follow your Startup/Shutdown plan or that resulted in an exceedance of any applicable emission limitation during the past 2 years, please provide the requested information in the table below. If this information is contained in periodic and immediate SSM reports (either stand-alone or contained within the periodic excess emissions report) submitted to your permitting authority, you may submit copies of those reports instead. Please provide any emissions data during startup or shutdown, if available.

Startup/Shutdown*







Description of the event, including identification of the emissions source or sources [unit ID(s)] associated with the startup or shutdown







Was any permit condition exceeded and, if so, what permit condition was exceeded?







Was the event covered by any contingency plan for controlling emissions during startup or shutdown events and, if so, whether the plan was followed; if the plan was not followed, why not?







Typical duration of an event







Actions taken to minimize emissions during the event, including the use of any backup control systems







Estimates or measurements, if any, of emissions during the event; if you did not have the ability to quantify emissions during the event, please explain why







For affected sources ducted to afterburners, did any startups or shutdowns take place while the afterburner was not operating, or operating outside of the operating temperature established during the performance test?







For affected sources ducted to control devices and monitored by continuous opacity monitors, did opacity exceed 10% during any startup or shutdown events?







List performance test data collected during each period of startup or shutdown, the test method used for each event; when the testing was conducted and why; the test conditions at the time of testing; and whether the tests were associated with a routine startup or shutdown








*Startup: the commencement of operation of an affected source or portion of an affected source for any purpose; Shutdown: the cessation of operation of an affected source or portion of an affected source for any purpose


46. Are there any types of startup or shutdown events that you have been able to eliminate: if so, please describe the type of event and explain how these events were eliminated?


47. Optional: Please recommend a standard that would apply during startup and/or shutdown. Describe the type of event (e.g., defining the beginning and duration of a start-up period and similarly for a shutdown) to which the standard would apply; the recommended standard (this could be an emission limitation, work practice, or operational standard) that would apply during the period; the basis for the recommended standard; why and how the standard would minimize emissions during the event; and how compliance would be determined and/or monitored.


J. Miscellaneous Information


48. What specific improvements or rule changes would you like to see that would help your facility with compliance or better rule interpretation?









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.

Reactive fluxing means the use of any gas, liquid, or solid flux (other than cover flux) that results in a HAP emission. Argon and nitrogen are not reactive and do not produce HAP.


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.
