Title: NESHAP Standard Standards for Petroleum Refineries--Heat Exchanger Reconsideration and Uniform Standards | |
Abstract: Organic chemical processing industries such as Petroleum Refining, Oil and Gas, and Chemical Production have similar emission sources that are often required to be controlled to similar levels by the same type of control devices and work practice standards. The air pollution control regulatory requirements for these sources have evolved and improved as different NSPS and MACT have been developed over the years. This has resulted in requirements that are different and in many cases insufficient especially with respect to ensuring continuous compliance. We have developed "standardized" regulatory requirements in the past but they are specific to part 60, 61, and 63 rules, respectively, and are out of date. This action will develop a state-of-the-art uniform standard for heat exchangers that will then become applicable when it is referenced in future regulatory actions, such as new and revised Control Technique Guidelines documents, NSPS technology reviews, and MACT Risk and Technology reviews. This effort will consist of developing the heat exchanger uniform standard, including developing control options to address technology review under both 112 and 111, addressing the control of VOC, HAP, and other pollutants, as appropriate, estimating the impacts of regulatory options, emission reductions, impacts on risk, costs, cost effectiveness, and economic impacts for these industries. | |
