- Table 2 to Subpart VVVV—Emission Limitations for New Large Municipal Waste Combustors

For the air pollutant If your affected facility is a new large municipal waste combustor, you must meet this
emission limit, corrected to 7 percent oxygen a
Particulate matter5.1 mg/dscm. Opacity10 percent opacity (6-minute block average). Cadmium2.3 ug/dscm. Lead23 ug/dscm. Mercury32 ug/dscm or 85 percent reduction by weight. Sulfur dioxide14 parts per million by volume dry basis or 79 percent reduction by weight or volume (daily 24-hour geometric average). Hydrogen chloride7.2 parts per million by volume dry basis or 98 percent reduction by weight or volume. Dioxins/furans11 nanograms per dry standard cubic meter (total mass). Nitrogen oxides50 parts per million by volume dry basis (daily 24-hour arithmetic average).

a Measured at the combustor outlet in conjunction with a measurement of oxygen concentration. CEMS data during warmup, startup, and shutdown, as defined in this subpart, are not corrected to 7 percent oxygen, and are used as measured. The averaging times are specified in greater detail in § 60.5940.
