§ 426.100 - Applicability; description of the glass tubing (Danner) manufacturing subcategory.
The provisions of this subpart are applicable to discharges resulting from the process by which raw materials are melted in a furnace and glass tubing mechanically drawn from the furnace horizontally by means of the Danner process, which requires the intermittent quenching of cullet.
§ 426.101 - Specialized definitions.
For the purpose of this subpart:
(a) Except as provided below, the general definitions, abbreviations and methods of analysis set forth in part 401 of this chapter shall apply to this subpart.
(b) The term “furnace pull” shall mean that amount of glass drawn from the glass furnace or furnaces.
(c) The term “cullet” shall mean any excess glass generated in the manufacturing process.
§ 426.102 - Effluent limitations guidelines representing the degree of effluent reduction attainable by the application of the best practicable control technology currently available.
Except as provided in §§ 125.30 through 125.32, any existing point source subject to this subpart shall achieve the following effluent limitations representing the degree of effluent reduction attainable by the application of the best practicable control technology currently available (BPT):
| Effluent characteristic | Effluent limitations | Maximum for any 1 day | Average of daily values for 30 consecutive days shall not exceed— | Metric units (g/kkg of furnace pull) | TSS | 460.0 | 230.0 | pH | ( 1) | ( 1) | English units (lb/1,000 lb of furnace pull) | TSS | 0.46 | 0.23 | pH | ( 1) | ( 1) |
|---|
1 Within the range 6.0 to 9.0.
§§ 426.103-426.104 - §[Reserved]
§ 426.105 - Standards of performance for new sources.
The following standards of performance establish the quantity or quality of pollutants or pollutant properties, controlled by this section, which may be discharged by a new source subject to the provisions of this subpart:
| Effluent characteristic | Effluent limitations | Maximum for any 1 day | Average of daily values for 30 consecutive days shall not exceed— | Metric units (g/kkg of furnace pull) | TSS | 0.4 | 0.2 | pH | ( 1) | ( 1) | English units (lb/1,000 lb of furnace pull) | TSS | 0.0004 | 0.0002 | pH | ( 1) | ( 1) |
|---|
1 Within the range 6.0 to 9.0.
§ 426.106 - Pretreatment standards for new sources.
Any new source subject to this subpart that introduces process wastewater pollutants into a publicly owned treatment works must comply with 40 CFR part 403. In addition, the following pretreatment standard establishes the quantity or quality of pollutants or pollutant properties controlled by this section which may be discharged to a publicly owned treatment works by a new point source subject to the provisions of this subpart.
| Pollutant or pollutant property | Pretreatment standard | pH | No limitation. | TSS | Do. |

§ 426.107 - Effluent limitations guidelines representing the degree of effluent reduction attainable by the application of the best conventional pollutant control technology.
Except as provided in §§ 125.30 through 125.32, any existing point source subject to this subpart shall achieve the following effluent limitations representing the degree of effluent reduction attainable by the application of the best conventional pollutant control technology (BCT): The limitations shall be the same as those specified for conventional pollutants (which are defined in § 401.16) in § 426.102 of this subpart for the best practicable control technology currently available (BPT).
