Abstract |
In August 1995, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) promulgated the National Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for petroleum refineries that were originally proposed in July 1992. These standards require petroleum refineries, that are major sources of Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAPs), to meet emission standards reflecting the application of the maximum achievable control technology (MACT). The affected sources at petroleum refineries are defined to include all process vents, storage vessels, marine tank vessel loading operations, gasoline rack operations, equipment leaks, and wastewater treatment systems located at the refinery. This manual was developed to assist refineries in determining the applicability of these new standards to their operations, and to provide guidance to assist facilities in achieving and maintaining compliance. The manual is presented in five chapters. Chapter 1 states the purpose, scope, and layout of the document. Chapter 2 summarizes the major parts of the regulation, applicability of the regulation to specific process units, applicable control requirements, and processes not covered under the new rule. Chapter 3 discusses general standards applicable to all process units. Chapter 4 builds on the general requirements, and discusses requirements specific to each type of process unit and for facilities that use emissions averaging. Finally, Chapter 5 shows where the new Petroleum Refinery MACT standard overlaps with existing regulations. |
