Municipal waste combustor technology | Carbon monoxide emission limit (parts per million by volume)a | Averaging time (hours)b |
Mass burn waterwall | 100 | 4 |
Mass burn refractory | 100 | 4 |
Mass burn rotary waterwall | 100 | 24 |
Modular starved air | 50 | 4 |
Modular excess air | 50 | 4 |
Refuse-derived fuel stoker | 150 | 24 |
Bubbling fluidized bed combustor | 100 | 4 |
Circulating fluidized bed combustor | 100 | 4 |
Pulverized coal/refuse-derived fuel mixed fuel-fired combustor | 150 | 4 |
Spreader stoker coal/refuse-derived fuel mixed fuel-fired combustor | 150 | 24 |
a Measured at the combustor outlet in conjunction with a measurement of oxygen concentration, corrected to 7 percent oxygen (dry basis). The averaging times are specified in greater detail in § 60.58b(i) .
b Averaging times are 4-hour or 24-hour block averages.
