Device Parameters to be monitored Established operating
parameter(s)
Scrubber pH of scrubber effluent; and scrubber liquid and gas flow rates Minimum pH; and minimum liquid/gas ratio
Absorber Exit temperature of the absorbing liquid; and exit specific gravity of the absorbing liquid Maximum temperature; and maximum specific gravity
Condenser Exit temperature Maximum temperature
Carbon absorber Total regeneration steam or nitrogen flow, or pressure (gauge or absolute)a during carbon bed regeneration cycle; and temperature of the carbon bed after regeneration (and within 15 minutes of completing any cooling cycle(s)) Maximum flow or pressure; and maximum temperature
Thermal incinerator Firebox temperature Minimum temperature
Catalytic incinerator Temperature upstream and downstream of the catalyst bed Minimum upstream temperature; and minimum temperature difference across the catalyst bed
Boiler or process heater Firebox temperature Minimum temperature
Other devices (or as an alternate to the requirements previously presented in this table)b Organic HAP concentration level or reading at outlet of device Maximum organic HAP concentration or reading

a25 to 50 mm (absolute) is a common pressure level obtained by pressure swing absorbers.

bConcentration is measured instead of an operating parameter.
